Update to GNOME 2.4.0. For all the goodies on what's changed, known issues,
future plans, etc., please see http://www.gnome.org/start/2.4/.
This commit represents work done by adamw, bland, and myself as well as
many other contributers:
Koop Mast <einekoai@chello.nl>
Akifyev Sergey <asa@gascom.ru>
Franz Klammer <klammer@webonaut.com>
Øyvind Kolbu <oyvind@kebab.gaffel.nu>
Thomas E. Zander <riggs@rrr.de>
Jeremy Messenger <mezz7@cox.net>
Without these contirbuters, and our faithful users, GNOME 2.4.0 would not
be possible.
Please check the FreeBSD GNOME site for any FreeBSD gotchas, as well as
general FAQs and documentation (GNOME 2.4 updates to be posted soon). The
best way to upgrade so that you get all shared library dependencies is:
portupgrade -rf -m BATCH=yes atk
portupgrade -R -m BATCH=yes gnome2
Approved by: portmgr (kris, will, myself implicitly)

Do _NOT_ use /etc/ttys to start gdm at boot time. This will result in gdm
|
|
|
|
|
hanging or restarting constantly. Instead, copy the included gdm.sh.sample
|
|
|
|
|
script to gdm.sh, and restart. This script is found, by default, in
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d.

GDM uses its own locale.alias file to determine its language and especially
|
|
|
|
|
the GNOME-2 fontencoding. This file is located, by default, in
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/locale.alias. By default, the character set for every
|
|
|
|
|
county using the EURO currency is set to ISO8859-15 in order to enable the
|
|
|
|
|
EURO sign. If you don't feel comfortable with this, edit this file according
|
|
|
|
|
to your preferences.

If you are running 5.x and you are running 5.1-RELEASE or earlier, GDM will
|
|
|
|
|
fail to work due to a bug in OpenPAM. You can download a patch from
|
|
|
|
|
http://www.FreeBSD.org/~marcus/pam_get_user.c.diff. You must also have the
|
|
|
|
|
FreeBSD src tree on your system. Do the following to apply the patch:
