hi, i got required packages to build gnome 2.10, i tried to build them without order.. and after some retries i got all packages successfully built.. then i tried to start gnome-session, and it ran without probs.. except for some insignificant applets (clock and something else) that pretended to run. but my menu is empty, the gnome-control-center main windows shows nothing (nothing means nothing at all), neither desktop properties appear when i rick click the desktop and select it. the only thing i can do is to run a terminal with a right click on the desktop.. I also can open nautilus and browse files, just that. i built every package in the gnome platform sources, and most of the desktop sources too. the general way i built those packages was: ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome2 --enable-nls make && make install since all those packages and depedencies are up-to-date and built successfully, this carries me to think that I performed some mistakes, missed something or i am using a bad build strategy.. so I wonder if could I find somewhere a magic document named "Building GNOME 2.10 From Scratch" that defines the right procedures in the process of bulding, build order, and if required initial configuration after building to get it working propertly, and further resources to get a cool gnome system. thanks, -- Jonathan J.
