RE: Problem - Gnome Conf under Beta 2

[Patrick Best-TM <Patrick Best telus com>]

Thanks for the help these lists have given me.  

I'm currently running it on my SUN Blade workstation.  Solaris 9, 64bit,
Gnome Beta 2.0.1.

If I wanted to compile the application (it's called etherape see
http://etherape.sourceforge.net/ ) then it will require gnomeConf.sh .  I
guess I will compile and install the devel stuff (not sure how to extract
just that - but nonetheless will install to isolated directory) from the
last stable version of gnome (1.4 I think) and run it side-by-side.

not supporting gnomeConf.sh anymore can hardly be described as a BCC ;)

just install the development stuff from gnome-libs that includes this 
script and you'll be fine.  If it's too hard to find, let us know what 
dist you use so we can offer helpful suggestions that work with your dist.
