Unfortunately you can't currently use GNOME1 programs with GNOME2 desktop. :( We are well aware of the problem and planning to address it really soon. However there is one trick, which should allow you to have your favorite GNOME1 programs with GNOME2 desktop. Do as follos: 1. Deinstall both GNOME1 and GNOME2 bits and pieces. The simplest way to do it is: pkg_delete -r gtk-\*. 2. Install GNOME1 desktop by doing: cd /usr/ports/x11/gnomecore ; make install 3. Install all your favorite GNOME1 programs. 4. Tweak /usr/ports/x11/gnome2/Makefile by removing lines between pre-everything:: (inclusive) and do-install (exclusive), then install GNOME2 desktop by doing: cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2 ; make install After that some GNOME1 files will be replaced with their GNOME2 counterparts, so that you will be unable to use GNOME1 desktop itself, but should have no problems with compiling and running GNOME1/GNOME2 programs and running GNOME2 desktop. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
