Anyone successfully installed xfce-4.2.0?
I've got some dependency resolution issues with apt-get that prevent me from installing, namely: libxfce4mcs-client.so.1 libxfce4mcs-manager.so.1 libxfcegui4.so.1

No, but I'm working on it. :-) I'm busy downloading the sources for GTK+ v2.6.1 to take care of one of xfce's dependencies. I haven't worked with apt-get so I'm afraid I can't be much help there. Jesse

Which apt component are you trying to install it from? The version in suser-ollaka works fine for me: ogley@riggwelter:~> rpm -q xfce4 xfce4-4.2.0-1suse91 [Which includes: ogley@riggwelter:~> rpm -q --whatprovides libxfce4mcs-client.so.2 libxfce4mcs-4.2.0-1] -- James Ogley james@usr-local-bin.org GNOME for SuSE: http://usr-local-bin.org/rpms

This is on a SUSE 9.2 box (I do have suse-ollaka as a repo) so that may have something to do with it.

I have installer xfce-4.2 on 2 laptops running SuSE 9.2. In both cases I used the graphical installer. From the xfce homepage click on "Graphical Installer", the installer page advises you of certain packages that need to be included for your distribution (I believe there were 3 packages that I needed to add first using YaST), then select from the available installers and you are a minutes away from having a working xfce desktop. Can not comment on the dependency issue that you have because the xfce installer "just works". --

This is a good solution providing: You do not intend to maintain your system via Yast2 or rpm or apt or red-rug..... as it puts files on your system in places not compatable with the SuSE way and does not update the rpm database and may/will cause dependency problems with Xfce4 and/or the rest of your SuSE system in the future. Unless you are *very* knowledgable in linux systems, you are playing with fire if you do not stay within the Yast2/rpm forum. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/photos
