How do you use E17 and > Gnome/Gtk app together? well my plan was just to run gnome-settings-daemon, and allow access to the gnome config utils from your .desktop files (and menus) under some special gnome settings menu. ideally i'd also like to disable any gnome settings (screensaver/lock, keybinding snarfing etc.) that conflict, but just running gnome-settings-daemon and giving access to the gnome conf tools is a good first step. it would be nice to have our own tool basically mimic all the things gnome-settings-daemon does that gtk/gnome apps need - but i'd need to dig into exactly all the things it does. > I thought about forking gnome-settings-daemon.
