Hi

I am trying to get gnome 2.8 into my mandrake 10 install. I have done the make install with garnome and all the files have downloaded and compiled successfully. I use GDM as my default window manager and want to set up garnome within the GDM menu choices.

Firstly, how do I do this? I have tried /etc/X11/dm/Sessions and /etc/X11/wmsessions.d to no avail. So where do I put the config file to get GDM to pick it up?

Secondly, what do I put in this file? Where do I put the Garnome configuration script

(I havent figured out how to get garnome to run at all yet! :P)



Thanks

Why oh WHY did you COMPILE GNOME?!?!

It's already available on your CD's in a Mandrakeified version that works perfectly on your system and makes the menus available, etc.

As root try

urpmi gnome

and things will be automagically installed.

Also see http://www.zebulon.org.uk/

for information on how to expand urpmi so that it will install a slew of other applications automagically for you.

ok then, thanks for that. I have deleted my garnome dir and used urpmi to fully configure gnome 2.8!

Great, is it working now?

yes, as it should be!

Excellent.
