There is fvwm-gnome: [..] Unlike fvwm, this has been compiled with GNOME support (at this point, this means that the fvwmGTK modules is a GNOME application, not a gtk application. but this may change). I _presume_ that if you install a kde app then it will pull in any libraries it needs, but I honestly don't know as I try to find alternate apps which do the same job. I did not mean to imply that if you run fvwm you *cannot* run KDE or GNOME apps. :-) -- Chris. ====== Don't forget to check that your /etc/apt/sources.lst entries point to etch and not testing, otherwise you may end up with a broken system once etch goes stable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
