Hi everyone:
I have another question: I've been trying to install Helix Gnome (Gnome 1.2)
on MDK7.2 (now Ximian I believe).
So far I haven't had success: I use the Go-Gnome script. 7.2 does not appear
on the OS menu (only 7.1).
It works just after the installation. The problem is that after

of the Netscape 4.75 program to get things to work normally in gnome as well.

I was told that Helix is the latest version of Gnome and that is smooth
as glass. I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but if it's as good as I
am told it should be wonderful.

I am using helix here, and it is great - Very smooth, clean and just all round
brilliant.
I couldn't go back to kde if I wanted to - The new Gnome is just so-unclunky.

is it relatively easy to install? I am using MDK 7 and was wondering does

buggy so I look forward to using 1.2

Dear Gnome:
I just recently downloaded Helix Gnome from the Web. I normally use KDE,
but I was very impressed with the new Helix Dome. I am speaking as an

menu fonts and panel -- everything looked so much better than the Gnome
... for instance you get a new version of GIMP, etc.
