Yeah, Bill ... I'm running Ximian Gnome on a more or less stock eD2.4 install, or at least it was a stock install when I started my Gnome experiments. I used the Ximian install for RedHat 6.x. Issues were that the bug reporting scheme and the upgrade scheme had to be heavily messed with to work with Caldera, and I never did get it to work *quite-right* before I gave up and moved on. Ximian produced a Caldera specific install, but quit doing so right around the time the single seat license policy was announced. No answer from Ximian as to THEIR reason for cancelling the package - this was just my observation.
Actually, I've stripped a lot of stuff out of Gnome (Nautilus, Bug Buddy, that particular version of Mozilla, etc.) and now run the Gnome apps I like under IceWM. Works dandy - Gnome, KDE (1.x for now) and X11 apps all seem to coexist quite nicely and IceWM has a low enough memory overhead that it even seems to work with these apps faster than in their native ground. YMMV. - Rich Thompson On Tue, 02 Oct 2001, Bill Day wrote: > Well, wanna take a plunge and check out gnome, seen it once long ago on like > redhat 5 or something and considering it a go around now(supposedly alot > better than it was). > > However I dont want to be logging out of one gui(kde2.1.1) to log into > another(gnome). > > I rember seeing in the linux.nf SxS where you could run another desktop > simultaneously on another tty where currently kde2.1.1 is running on "C^ ALT > F8" . that would be my wish.. > > Anyone running eDesktop 2.4(stock kernel btw 2.2.14) run gnome .. fi so which > version..? > > TIA(btw forwarding this to linuxnf list as well..) > > l8r > > > -- > Bill Day A.K.A.
