I'm using the gnome2.2 backport currently avaiable from ftp.acc.umu.se. >If gnome2.2, I'd like to know what doesn't work for you or what is >missing-- maybe I can fix it. Everything is working great for me. Thanks! The problem is that no entry for the Gnome user guide shows up anywhere in the hierarchy of documents that is available when I start yelp. I have since narrowed this down a bit--there is no entry when I'm using the Norwegian locale, but it does show up when I set the locale to C. In other words: $ LC_ALL=no_NO.ISO-8859-1 yelp results in a yelp which does not contain a entry for the user guide, but $ LC_ALL=C yelp does. I think that's very peculiar, particularly since most of the documents are in English, even in the Norwegian locale. Apart from that, yelp is unbearable slow--it can take anything up to ten seconds from when I click on an entry to the document shows up in the window, and that's on my 512MB Athlon XP 1800. Yelp always insists on opening a ridiculously small window when I start it. At a guesstimate, it covers less than a sixth of my 1600x1400 screen and I have to resize it every time.
