Hello, I could also use some help trying to get later gnome versions and enlightenment running on slink (2.0.36 kernel).
I originally installed the gnome and enlightenment that came on the slink CD. But the enlightenment-conf had problems installing. I grabbed a bunch of .debs of newer gnome and enlightenment recently. It appears that freetype2 needs libc6 >- 2.1 and I cant seem to find this. When I run "enlightenment" now, there is no text at all, and wierd things happen to my screen. Is there a place that has everything needed for a later gnome and enlightenment, and what it needs? (and that will run under 2.0.36) I am not sure how to get dselect to recognize the dependencies that exist when I try to install from hard disk, using seperate .deb files that I grab individually. I currently have to use WIN95/AOL to grab files, and I use dpkg -i to install these one by one. I then note the configuration errors and install each of the dependency .deb files one by one, and then finally use "dpkg --configure --pending" to get everything setup after all pieces have been "installed". Until I get an ISP that allows linux connectivity, I can't use "apt-get". John ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
