GNOME2 config
I've been running woody up on laptop for a while now and have been regularly running apt-get update/upgrade. After updating last night I decided to have a go at installing GNOME2 and Mozilla 1.2.1 from their respective sites on people.debian.org. It all looked to running nicely, I rebooted after installing everything and was impressed with what I'd got. But, when I turned the machine on today I can't move any of the windows around, they just sit one atop the other - I have to close one window to see the one beneath and I can't type into the address bar anything like the search boxes on web pages - access through an M$ box continues to allow me full access to the outside world! I ran update-alternatives --config x-windows-manager to try to switch from sawfish as I have at present to metacity (I only seem to be able to do this as root...). On rebooting the system sawfish is still running... solutions to these simple little problems would be most helpful. Thanks in advance! = --- Simon Tod [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do You Yahoo!?
