Hello, I've made the same mistake as Guenther... Compiled garnome as root. I then edited /etc/gdm/Sessions/Gnome and added the following from the readme: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/root/garnome/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH GDK_USE_XFT=1 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH GDK_USE_XFT=1 gnomesession="/root/garnome/bin/gnome-session --purge-delay=15000" Previously, without these lines, gnome-session used to segfault right after login. Now it abruptly stops and gets back to the login screen again. If I set GDK_USE_XFT=0 then the segfault appears again... My .gnome-errors file shows: aborting... /root/garnome/bin/gnome_segv: error while loading shared libraries: libgnomecanvas-2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: Error 23 Above that error, there are other font related errors: aborting... ** ERROR **: Failed to match any font. This could be due to a broken Xft configuration, or if you run XFree 4.1.0 due to a bug in libXrender. Its been almost a week since I've been trying to get Gnome 2 running, starting from Debian Experimental and now onto Garnome but no success yet... :-( Any help would be appreciated. TIA Regards,
