Re: [debian-knoppix] Gnome 2.2 on KNOPPIX, please
Hey all,
i was planning to just to stay low, but morphix has had Gnome2.2 for a few weeks
now, and it seems to work quite well. Then again, i personally don't agree with
the throw-it-all-in-one-iso philosophy.
Imho, people wanting knoppix with gnome2.2 should just take a look at
knoppix.net and try to build their own remastered version. If you want something
like gnome2.2, or any other application/windowmanager/whatever, try to do it
yourself first. Knoppix is filled up to the brim, so your chances of having
something included arn't that great. The world of opensource software is huge,
fast and fast-moving, don't expect Knopper to include every change and everything.
dixi ;o)
Cheers,
Alex
