I see many screenshots from the Linux community where people use this glorified toolbar but from my experience, it's most reliable feature is creating .core files. I've compiled and recompiled this port from the ground up several different times over the past 9 months and I never can seem to find the functionality of it. (recompiling the latest port dependancies, reinstalling etc.) I load up a window-manager, start an xterm and type "panel" at which point I get the main GNOME toolbar. If I try to configure it, it core dumps, if I do most anything it core dumps. It never wants to switch away from enlightenment being the default manager etc. My question is this: Are any people in the FreeBSD community using the GNOME port happily? Did I skip a fundamental /home/userdir setup script? It's not important that I get it working, I just like to know why things aren't working as they should.
