used.

I'm not sure about the behavior change, but there is indeed a simple
workaround: put
/sw/bin/fortune -s
in the command field and it should work fine.

Thanks for the info; I guess I'll put Gnome2 off for a while.

The problem may have occurred further back in the build, but the compile

This from the pango1 info file:
This version of pango will run both with XFree86 4.2 and 4.3, but only
build with XFree86 4.2, because XFree86 4.3 does not contain XFT1
headers.
Do you have XFree86 4.3? 4.3 is still a little wet behind the ears.

I made progress but haven't found the answer to the new problem. I've
tried doing rebuilds of pango1, pango1-shlibs and a few others which
appeared marginally related. Pango1 will not rebuild as indicated below.
fink list -i pango:

No problem. All I did was look on my system for libxml2.2.dylib using
Ben's dlocate (dpkg -S works too), and saw which package installed it.
That's a good way to come up with a first package to rebuild.

You don't need to do that--just update your GNOME packages from source,
and all should be well--the fact that you originally installed from
binaries doesn't matter.

I just tried Gnome2 with OroborOSX. I got a menu bar running across
the middle of the screen, which I could not move. And another at the
bottom.
Is there a way to configure menu bar placement?

The problem with the top bar was with beta 0.1 and I solved that by
making the panel floating.
In beta 0.2 top panel is placed bellow the apple panel. With Codex
running I found I could also move the top panel to other desktops, which
though curious - was great to create confusion.

No, not yet. I was wondering about that too. The graphic (redrawing during
window size change and window movement) is not very smooth with Gnome2 on my

I'm having the same problem here. With sawfish, which seems to be the default, the windows have no borders and you can't move them at all. Thanks Alexander also for your description of how to use metacity instead, that was my next question!

What I did is just call metacity in my .xinitrc before gnome-session:
...
metacity &
gnome-session
...
GNOME detects that metacity is running, and is happy.
By the way, was your sawfish problem that the controls for the windows
vanished?
