I have Gnome installed but mostly just for the libs and depends, so I can run gnome apps within KDE. __________________ I do not respond to private messages asking for help.

Gnome, Xfce and fvwm in my lappy ( Debian ) and I pick any of those according to mood only. __________________ It takes a lot of time to be a genius, you have to sit around so much doing nothing, really doing nothing. - Gertrude Stein New Users: Read This First

(And be it only for the f=feline in it ) In the moment i'm in Gnome, but only, because i have a fresh Debian-Lennyinstall and i didn't restart X till now (few days). But in a short while i probably will get my fvwmrc from my debian and configure it here in lenny, and use that. There is simply nothing better than a wm with completely configurable keyboardshortcuts. Ogion

If there is a faster window manager I don't know what it is. __________________ CRUX 2.5 + IceWM Registered:#371367 New Members: click here
