Maybe doing it every day is the trick

Applications that I've had Gnome-related painful breakage on in the past include fvwm2 and galeon.

It may be that if you're trying to use Gnome in the way that they intend (eg using it for your desktop environment), then you'll have fewer problems.

I dunno.

Cheers,
Ben

I don't think it's silly at all. - (pwhysall) - (39) - March 14, 2005, 09:05:05 AM EST

What's silly - (imric) - (36) - March 14, 2005, 10:30:18 AM EST

No it means "I can change the wallpaper." - (static) - (1) - March 14, 2005, 10:04:03 PM EST

That's been a big thing in web-design the past few years. - (ubernostrum) - March 15, 2005, 07:56:13 PM EST

Tell that to Microsoft - (drewk) - March 14, 2005, 12:23:40 PM EST

I see. - (ubernostrum) - (26) - March 14, 2005, 11:25:43 AM EST

ROFL - actually, right! - (imric) - (25) - March 14, 2005, 11:58:54 AM EST

Ah yes, all that configurability. - (ubernostrum) - (24) - March 14, 2005, 12:19:13 PM EST

Ah yes, all that availability. - (imric) - (23) - March 14, 2005, 12:40:52 PM EST

Bah. Firefox made configuration tweaking MORE accessable. -NT - (imric) - (9) - March 14, 2005, 09:02:52 PM EST

To expand on that - (drewk) - (6) - March 14, 2005, 10:36:56 PM EST

And I'm saying - (ubernostrum) - (5) - March 15, 2005, 04:13:38 PM EST

Ummm. What? - (imric) - (4) - March 14, 2005, 02:06:53 PM EST

The gconf editor is no harder than about:config -NT - (pwhysall) - (3) - March 14, 2005, 02:36:48 PM EST

And about:config is easier - (imric) - (2) - March 14, 2005, 02:42:00 PM EST

What was there before... - (pwhysall) - (1) - March 14, 2005, 02:46:48 PM EST

What about those SMB shares? - (Another Scott) - (18) - March 14, 2005, 09:32:21 PM EST

You can do all of that! - (pwhysall) - (17) - March 15, 2005, 01:32:23 AM EST

Couldn't prove it by me. - (imric) - (7) - March 15, 2005, 06:50:05 AM EST
