Hello everyone:
Please...
This is my question today:
I am trying to use my laptop with 2 monitors but I hit this bug:

I also know that this is my file:

Hello again,
just thought I would add to the discussion: gnome-doc-utils solved all
my problems instantaneously. And I do agree with Randy that copy
paste *does* make things (ie. installing BLFS GNOME) a breeze. Most
of the time, at least. What *does not* make installing things a breeze

as you can see in the topic I'm following The Hint... and can't cope
with installing gnome-panel anymore. Could someone please post how they

A word of advice, go thru the log file for *all* packages, especially
for the installation portion.
Yeah, I do it *now*... But that's indeed a *very* apropriate piece of
advice, I wish I heard it (and followed!) it from the beginning! But at

Just a short question: can a group name be longer than a certain number
of characters (eg. desktop-file-utils) or is it 'capped'? Or is it just
my system? It's kind of strange, I can have linux-libc-headers (18) but
not desktop-file-utils (also 18!). Why could that be? I've tried to
rebuild
