Hi Well, first, start ggnome. Once gnome's running, press alt+f2 and type gnopernicus. alt+f2 is the shortcut key to run an application, and X windows applications such as gnopernicus must be started within X. Note that if you're using gnome 2.2 that comes with slack 9, you're accessibility won't be all that good. Gnome 2.4 has made much more headway in accessibility. If you can use it, I'd suggest dropline gnome: http://www.dropline.net/ It's a gnome 2.4 for slack 9. Alternatively, upgrade to slack current which also has gnome 2.4.

I just can't figure out how to start it. when I start it from the console i get an error saying that it can't open display. Does anyone know how I'd start it? I'm running gnopernicus 0.7 on slackware 9.0 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
