Getting vanilla 2.30 and GNOME Terminal profile display

[Tomasz Chrzczonowicz <tomasz chrzczonowicz com>]

Hello,

What is the easiest, clean and non-destructive (appliance, iso, etc) way
of getting vanilla GNOME 2.30 installed on my computer? I wouldn't want
it to use or overwrite anything from my current installation (including
config files).

I don't see any images on http://torrent.gnome.org/

I'm a computer-literate translator, but, regrettably, not much of a
hacker. I need vanilla GNOME for the purpose of translation.

Also, I'd like to ask whether vanilla GNOME Terminal displays the
current profile name in either the window title bar or the tab by
default, like its manual says.

It doesn't in Ubuntu.

Regards,
