To get a more uptodate GNOME Desktop, use Helix GNOME. See http://www.helixcode.com for more information... Just add this line to your /etc/apt/source.list: deb ftp://spidermonkey.helixcode.com/distributions/debian unstable main and do: 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get install task-helix-core' (for the core elements of a Helix GNOME Desktop). There's also the meta package 'task-helix-gnome', which installs much more GNOME packages (You can check it with 'apt-get --simulate task-helix-gnome'... moritz -- /* Moritz Schulte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * http://hp9001.fh-bielefeld.de/~moritz/ * PGP-Key available, encrypted Mail is welcome. */
