therefore? Noooo! GARNOME is for experienced GNOME users who are keen to do
testing for the next stable release. The GNOME 2.1.x releases are UNSTABLE
DEVELOPMENT releases designed for testers and hackers only, as is GARNOME.

It is not designed to be used for anything else.

I strongly suggest you use the fresh GNOME stuff available in Cooker, rather
than using GARNOME.
