I've built the gnome2 port, and I'm getting gdm2 as a login screen. I'm able to log in as a normal user. But when I change something. it thinks it's changing roots Gnome config. And indeed all changes I make are affecting all users. Thinking it was somethign pecuilar about by . files, I creatd a whole new test user, just using adduser. This user exhibits the same problem. BTW, am I the only one thta thinks that the new panel icons look uglier than the 1.4 ones? -- "They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin
