Gtk-- works with gtk 1.1 if it's compiled that way, but the Debian package apparently isn't. You can maybe install the Debian Gtk 1.1 package and then compile Gtk-- yourself. Compiling yourself is handy with Gtk and friends anyway, because the docs often need to be supplemented by the source code. However, I doubt the Gtk-- 1.1 support will just happen to be in sync with the particular 1.1 Debian has packaged. Remember that 1.1 is the ever-changing-interface development branch. So if you want to go the compilation route I'd suggest you purge all the Gtk 1.1 packages (and 1.0 -dev packages) and start from scratch with glib out of Gnome CVS. See www.gnome.org. You want the glib, gtk+, gtk-- modules. > (my email address is actually [EMAIL PROTECTED]) > So put it on your mail! :-) Havoc
