Oh I see. Consider this link then: https://www.debian.org/releases/jessie/amd64/release-notes/ch-whats-new.en.html Especially chapter 2.2.2, which talks about GNOME 3.14. Funny thing is - chapter 2.2.2 does not mention GNOME Classic at all. Presumably because GNOME Classic was axed in GNOME 3.6 (or 3.8, or 3.10 - the memory fails me here). > > > > Will Debian 8, when released, provide the "GNOME Classic" > > > > interface? > > > > > > From the above: > > > > > > "If you want to keep an interface closer to the GNOME 2.30 version > > > in wheezy, you can select the “GNOME Classic” session at the login > > > prompt.

Hey, *I* stopped using GNOME back then Debian stable was called etch. But you don't need software to be installed to check its version because they give you apt-cache. And if you don't like apt-cache - they give you aptitude :) Reco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
