What is the trick to installing gnome? The dependencies seems to be broken:
I have installed the gnome packages using dselect, and dselect has
satisfied all dependencies. Nevertheless, when I try to start up gnome,
my screen blinks a few times, and returns to the login prompt.

Bonjour,
I have just configured Gnome on Woody:
whereas I can listen to my favorite CD with the cdplayer,
I can not ear the sound events from Gnome
(despite the fact that there are allowed via the Gnome control center).
I guess I have missed something.
Any idea ?
Thanks in advance,

Try both, see for you which one you prefer by usage, not opinion. I've been
a gnome user for several years now, and i'm only just trying kde out. Both
desktops are great imho, but try them both extensively to see which one you
prefer.

I played with gnome 1.4 and kde2, I really couldn't see much difference.
I only have a 800x600 display and only a 233mhz pentium, so perhaps this
could help me choose.
Is one better suited to this spec than the other ?

your best bet is to install 3 or 4 desktops. play
with them all. i find that learning at least 2 of
them solid will keep your interest long enough to
realize that you're playing with some serious
power. both kde and gnome are very snaz
qually nice and equally cruddy, depending on
what you do. I picked GNOME, for political reasons, and because I used
to run sawfish for a while before that.
Try 'em both. Pick the one you like better.
