thanks, i already had looked at his site, and what he is doing looks
very interesting. but i agree that i shouldn't need gnome, and i am
going to try to compile GTK. if that doesn't work then i will plunge
into dselect.
at the moment i am getting gimp 1.2 with the --display option from my
boyfriends debian PC. it works nicely. i'm also getting netscape that
way.
but i really want to find a solution because other wise i'm gonna go
running back to photoshop, and i want to avoid that.
grrrrr,
