I think that if you get into dependencies problems because you do not have installed this or that package, you will know it :). In that case, you just use apt-get and install what you need. If what you want is to install the essentials of gnome, do apt-get install gnome-core By the way, which version, 1.4 or 2.2? cheers -- Rodrigo Agerri Dept. of Computing City University, London Tel: 0044 (0) 20 7040 0292 http://www.soi.city.ac.uk/~au700 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
