Sorry forgot those details. To much thinking is not good for the memory.

I just upgraded to Slack 12 (well wasn't much to upgrade since this test
system was running Slack-current), and just downloaded the newest garnome.
Ver 2.18.2
The packages that are supposed to be built is gtk+-2.10.12. And it is a
packages I believe is a must have

I just wanted to try out Gnome again. And when I saw this thread I got
curious and thought that it would be nice to try. Nothing wrong with KDE or
XFCE but another choice is always fun.

Well KDE works and xorg is fully installed the only 'extra' thing I've done
that differs from 'normal full installation' is that I installed the ATI
packages for xorg that was in /extras since I had a slight problem with
starting KDE.
