Re: gnome testers wanted?
Ok, new potato install on a Sun U10.
Install debs to test:
dpkg -i *.deb # from source below
gives unresolved dependancies, no problem,
go in to deselect->select->return->accept missing, then install
hematit:~# uname -a
Linux hematit 2.2.17 #1 Tue Jul 4 14:22:29 EDT 2000 sparc64 unknown
hematit:~# dpkg -l | grep 1.0.55-2.0.2
ii gnome-core 1.0.55-2.0.2 Common files for Gnome core apps
ii gnome-help 1.0.55-2.0.2 GNOME help browser
ii gnome-help-data 1.0.55-2.0.2 GNOME help browser data
ii gnome-panel 1.0.55-2.0.2 Launch and/or dock Gnome applications

ii libpanel-applet-dev 1.0.55-2.0.2 Library for Gnome Panel applets - Development
ii libpanel-applet0 1.0.55-2.0.2 Library for Gnome Panel applets
Ok, you can install them.
Tries some applications, only bug I find is the text displayed in
gnome help browser -> man pages ->
822-date shows up with header 822\-date
there were some more xx-xx command which showed up with header xx\-xx
instead of xx-xx.
