Ray asked me to post this... -jonathon The standard way to start gnome is to put the line exec gnome-session in your xinitrc. Unfortunately, this doesn't work well since the installer puts some of the files in the worong place. You need to do this: cd /usr/share/gnome/gnome/ cp -Rp * .. and then it will work. I still can't get the gnome-terminal to work, though... It dies as it starts due to "unable to fork: interrupted system call" If you could forward this to the questions list, I'd be grateful. I can't get mail through to them and it seems I'm the only one who figured this out. Thanks. -- Ray Kohler <rjk191@psu.edu> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
