Re: Helix Gnome



I always have trouble with Helix Gnome. This time I downloaded
everything using apt-get update. But when I change my .xsession file
to read gnome-session, I'm back into the old gnome desktop that came
with 2.2. What am I doing wrong now? I'm running potato, but that
shouldn't make a difference, correct?
If I can't run it, how can I uninstall it?

thanks
