One stop solution shop!

- -

GNOME is simple and easy to build using the &os; ports system, but - sometimes things simply go wrong. If GNOME -- or anything that uses - GNOME libraries -- is not building the way it should, simply run the - gnomelogalyzer.sh - tool from the directory of the failed port, and let the gnomelogalyzer - figure out what's wrong and how to fix it!

+ web browsers, audio players, office programs, + graphical login programs and more. MATE is + a continuation of the old GNOME 2 desktop + environment. Cinnamon is originally a fork + of GNOME 3's gnome-shell, but grew into its own + desktop environment.

+ +

How to install these desktop environments?

+ +

There are some so called meta ports available for + installing these desktop environments or parts of + them. They are: +

    +
  • gnome3 (full GNOME desktop)
    • +
  • gnome3-lite (minimal GNOME desktop)
    • +
  • mate (full MATE desktop)
    • +
  • mate-lite (minimal MATE desktop)
    • +
  • cinnamon
    • +

+ The easiest way of installing is to run the + following command and replace gnome3 with the + desktop environment of choice: + 
+# pkg install gnome3
+
+ Or if you prefer to build from source: + 
+# cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome3
+# make clean
+# make install clean
+
+

+ + +

State of the port:

+ +

GNOME, MATE, and Cinnamon for &os; are currently + fully supported on 10.2, 10.1, and 10-STABLE while + support for 9.3, 9-STABLE, and 11.0-CURRENT is provided + on a best effort basis.
