Thanks for the info.

OK, I resisted for a few months, but when I blew up my old desktop I decided to see what was new. I tried Debian, *buntu (straight gnome and xfce versions), Mint, Vector, and a couple of others I don't even remember now. My 'new' machine is an HP 433MHz Celeron with 256MB RAM, and the final choice - as I knew it probably would be - was Zenwalk. I've been using it since v4.2, and there is nothing better.

What I didn't expect was how much I liked the Gnome version, or how well it runs on this old hardware. I expected it to be sluggish, and though it isn't a speed demon I really can't tell much difference between this and the original Xfce version. I now have it on two of my three machines (the lappy still has Xfce only) and am really enjoying the new look.

If it only had a 'right-click for applications menu' I would be in hog heaven. Great job, Gapan!

Thanks!


Not possible at all with gnome alone... You can experiment with openbox or fluxbox as your WM in gnome if you really want it.
