    [SOLVED] Gnome in Slackware?

    Anyone got Gnome to work in Slackware 12.1? I have tried two of them but they messed up my system. I might have done something wrong, but I'm not sure. So if anyone has any suggestions I am up for them.

    Nevermind got it installed, using Gnome SlackBuild. But thanks for the help.

    I don't know what you tried, but there's dropline GNOME, GNOME SlackBuild, and GWARE. I can't confirm whether these work, because I'll drop dead before I install GNOME on my nice Slack box. But dropline has a good reputation...

    I used Gnome SlackBuild, and it is working fine, I really don't like KDE and XFCE is too old looking. I have liked Gnome since I tried Ubuntu, and wanted to install in Slackware. I still have KDE and XFCE in case I need to fall back. What do you use cardinals_fan?

    I use Xmonad. If I had to use a DE, I would use KDE 3.5, slimmed down for my preferences.
