('locate metacity | grep bin' should >help to find it). I can start metacity just fine from a Gnome terminal, as long as X is running. In this case gnome-panel was still running, so all I had to do was click on Applications > System > Terminal, then type the command "metacity" and hit Enter. That is how I am functioning at the moment. In the past I lost both metacity and gnome-panel. Considering that this has happened after installing five different distros, I really need to figure out what is causing it. Or at least, how to repair it. Reinstalling from scratch after two days of configurations and installing applications is getting old. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
