[SunHELP] Helix Gnome?

[Clayton Winter]

Brian,

The packages is 80Mb so you will need bandwidth or patience.

It was fine on my Ultra 10 with Solaris 8 (don't know if there are 
issues with 2.6 etc al). I already had Gnome installed, but the script 
should be able to sort fresh installs.

The proprietary X in Solaris make it even sharper than Linux ( not disin 
Linux or anything). Playing devils advocate Ximian is "perty" and gives 
you compatibility to Gnome and KDE apps.

Regards
Clayton
