GNOME
Hi all,
I followed these instructions from openbsdsupport to install gnome (altered for 4.5): Quote:
Thanks in advanced for any help! |

Ah, yes, one more hint ... when you installed gdm, you should have seen a message with guidance for the admin on configuration. That message includes the current location of gdm, too.
That pkg_info man page can tell you how to read the message once more. |

A few more questions
Greetings to all:
Thanks, jggmi - I'll read up on the "pkg_info -L" myself later this week. I've a couple of GNOME related questions: 1) GDM - I've downloaded xfce and WindowMaker to check them out. xfce shows up on as an option on my gdm; but WindowMaker doesn't - I need to "exec wmaker" on the Failsafe Terminal to call it up. I've an older machine, so I'm actually enjoying the performance increase xfce is giving me. Q:What's the proper way of "adding" Window Managers and Desktop Environments as an X option for the GDM? (edit - yeah, it's probably in the pkg_info somewhere;but if it's on top of someone's tongue...) 2) When logging off from GNOME, I've been getting a message indicating that an "Unknown" process is still on; and wants me to either Log off anyway, Cancel, or Lock my Window. Noticed that we don't have the GNOME System Monitor available in this port, so I don't know which process this is a result of. Q: Which tools would help identify these "Unknown Processes"? The GNOME Logout warning won't allow me to call up more info on that process. Thank you. |
