Joe, I found a work-around for this problem. At the Ghostscript driver screen, if I just accept the default drivers, and not add VGA drivers, that error does not occur. Gnome2 is still compiling, and hopefully will complete this time. Thanks for your reply, Barry On Fri, 2003-12-05 at 11:54,

I have both Gnome and KDE installed on my 4.9-RELEASE system, and would like to be able to choose between them at X startup. I found a port called 'wmanager' that sounds like it will do what I need. However, there is no man page or other documentation available on the web, so I have not been
