Please, in detail, what do you do to avoid getting screwed by gnome (when using emacs). (Also, outside of emacs). I'm dreading having to go to gnome -- on Solaris 10 I'm still managing to use the familiar (and nice) CDE. One of these days, Solaris 11 maybe, no CDE will be available, so Sun/Oracle will force gnome down everyone's throats (throat or throats?). Thanks! David
