The system was design to operate via keyboard shortcuts... makes me reminds the wordperfect times... Once you know the shortcuts, it is fast... but I do not want to use the keyboard, so it is difficult... I spend almost a month building gnome from sources, and using Freebsd ports to build it on Arch linux... (via makepkg and abs). I have a repository, (if someone is interest...) that installs about 800 packages with a group=gnome2... it should work on about any arch linux distribution. There is also a port of mate sometime I will test it ===> http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-gnome/2012-July/027575.html Sergio
