The OpenBSD/GNOME desktop
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
* Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
The gnome-session package only takes care of installing minimal GNOME
|
|
libraries. For a satisfying GNOME user experience, it is advised to
|
|
install at least the following packages:
|
|
sudo pkg_add eog \
|
|
file-roller \
|
|
gdm \
|
|
gedit \
|
|
gnome-audio \
|
|
gnome-backgrounds \
|
|
gnome-control-center \
|
|
gnome-media \
|
|
gnome-panel \
|
|
gnome-screensaver \
|
|
gnome-terminal \
|
|
gnome-themes \
|
|
gnome-utils
|
|
|
|
(xscreensaver can be used instead of gnome-screensaver)
|
|
|
|
This file will briefly explain to you how to make this experience more
|
|
pleasant.
|
|
|
|
* A note about accessibility
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
If you want to make the GNOME applications "accessible" (e.g. nautilus),
|
|
you'll need to install the libgail-gnome package which adds ATK
|
|
interfaces for libbonoboui and libgnomeui widgets.
|
|
|
|

|
|
