Hi!
I can’t seem to get Gnome2 to work. I installed FreeBSD 5.4
from scratch, installed Xorg (it works fine, I can get into Xterm) and ran
CVS (for both source and ports) and portupgrade several times. When I try
to “startx” either as root or as a user, I get the initial Gnome 2.10 Splash
Screen but nothing else. The mouse works fine. When I Ctl+Alt+Backspace to
get out, there are no error messages. I did a “make deinstall” for Gnome2,
then a “make install clean” but nothing changed.
I have googled this but have found nothing. Any advice,
suggestions or comments would be appreciated.
Thanking you in advance,
Lawrence
