Just an additional bit... I'm using RH51 updated all over the place (^_^) and
then updated with the RH52 Gnome packages as documented on the Gnome site.
Seemed to work just fine... I was quite pleased.
Then I tried to update to these new packages.
Gods, things got weird. Gnome couldn't find this, couldn't find that. But it
didn't segfault. :)
So I erased all the session files I could find. Now it works correctly and I
get the nifty RH Labs logo on startup too.
Would like to know why I have all these GTK+ errors though, when I exit X...
it's been doing that ever since I started with Gnome. Nothing seems to be
BROKEN... but there's all sorts of assertion errors on the screen when I exit.
<sigh>
