Re: caveat: GNOME 2.6 severly broken on Debian/unstable?
I can confirm this; the update that did it for me happened early on May 28
(May 27 for folks in the US). I haven't really looked into it - one
(partial) workaround is to use something like GARNOME. FWIW, I'm using a
2.6.5 kernel. I'm pretty sure that isn't the problem.
