You might need to explain this better for me to understand. There's a System Monitor applet for the GNOME Panel (provided in gnome-applets); not sure about your Skype issue - does it provide a Kicker applet or a notification icon...? > >You could try the latest Ubuntu or Gnoppix LiveCDs. > > I'd like to try them on an existing debian testing.

GNOME 2.8 isn't available for Debian's testing branch. If you installed backports, you'd "taint" your install. The best way to test it would be to use a LiveCD or install a distro that did have it in another partition (you could use sid+experimental or Ubuntu). - Jeff -- linux.conf.au 2005: Canberra, Australia http://lca2005.linux.org.au/ "Linux continues to have almost as much soul as James Brown." - Forrest Cook, LWN -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
