GNOME / ignite

[Joe Humphries_1]

My new box came installed with ignite, and gnome/gtk was installed as part of it.

How do i get it to appear in the sessions box on the loging screen..

Thanks.

Hi Joe,

Ignite and Gnome are not connected, these are seperate products.

ok.. i mean that HP installed it when then installed the base software. All the directorys are there:

/etc/opt/gnome
/opt/gnome etc etc.

Joe now tell us your Question in detail...

ok..im sure that all teh software is installed as part of the base install from HP.

All I want to do is get an option to run gnome from the login screen, like i have done with my Solaris and AIX boxes. (the session drop down)

So a user can choose to use CDE/Gnome etc.

I can download and install it all again, which from the docs looks like it will set up what I require. But i just want to enable what i have already installed if possible.

Cheers

If you're using the GNOME 1.4 that
HP ships, edit the file
/etc/rc.config.d/desktop to say
"DESKTOP=GNOME" instead of "DESKTOP=CDE",
or you can also use the "ch_rc" command to
do it. See:

http://www.software.hp.com/products/GNOME/install.html#gnome

This will use gdm to login instead
it dtlogin. gdm allows you to choose
between CDE, GNOME, and failsafe.

Also, make sure you have this gdm patch
from Ximian:
