I followed some recommendations and installed the Gnome from their website with their excellent installer. My system is now a Gnome system, but there is one little problem - I can't type my name into the login prompt to sign in to it. I've only been able to do it once, after rebooting. Even then, the system seemed to crash or something after trying to come out of the screensaver - whatever happened I had to reboot. As it stands right now, I can't log in at all. It's getting to the point where I'm REALLY starting to get pissed off... =========================== Lucas Vogel, Software Developer Technology Development Practice Exponent, Inc. lvogel@exponent.com =========================== http://www.exponent.com
