Find it at you can grab it from FTP.gnome.org
It is of course a technology preview; note that it can't be installed alongside GNOME 1.x." There's some more information information posted on LinuxToday.

Can someone PLEASE FUCKING STANDARDIZE this? Thanks.
Why would I change from KDE to gnome? KDE is a lot more fleshed out that gnome is. And I don't want any of that commericial ximian shit in my hd. It's fucked up my distro 2 times now.
I'd really like to use it, but I've already got a mature GUI for my OS.
It's called Windows 2000.

I know a couple of widgets from gtk1.2 is deprecated, CList is one of them. But will gnome 2 also include gtk1.2 or only gtk2.0.
And, does deprecated in the gtk2.0 case mean "not there" or "could disapear in the future"?

Damn, KDE users are getting all sorts of new toys to play with, was hoping Gnome was gonna give me some too. :)

I didn't think GNOME2 would ever see the light of day. It should be interesting race between KDE3 and GNOME2.
From what I can gather from reading the comments to the Linux Today article, the main things that have changed and the underlying libraries, nothing that would really change the look. So apparently a screenshot of this wouldn't really look any different from a screenshot of gnome 1.x.

I used to treat posts like this as trolls. I first used KDE back around 1997 (I think). I didn't like it at all. I didn't use it for years after that, sticking with WindowMaker and finally Gnome. Then, about 3-6 months ago, I tried KDE again. Wow. Screw Gnome. I doubt I'd ever go back.
KDE is very mature and quite quick when used on a modern machine. Gnome is so far behind. I'd love to see KDE become the de facto standard desktop.
Whats Gnome? And why would I want to use it? Does it enhance my command line in some way? Does it make vi work better? What is this Gnome thingy everyone keeps talking about???

Date: Tue, 2 Oct 2001 17:22:16 +0200
From: Dirk Mueller
I delay alpha1 release until Friday to give us more time to fix and verify the recent regressions in KIO and khtml.
Also, there will be a kde 2.2.2 release soon, check http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kde
GNOME is a word that was created when some people took the first letters of a bunch of words and put them together.
I think it is cool when people make up words that are made up of the first letters of other words.
I much prefer gtk+ only apps along with windowmaker or blackbox
If you MUST have a desktop environment, use KDE. It's bloated like GNOME, but has lots more features.
There are alternative GUIs out there, for Linux & Unix - Berlin for example - but they're either not compatiable with X applications and/or the X protocol, or they're not mature enough to be usable.
Most Unix manufacturers go the other way. The sample X implementation may be broken, in many ways, but it's still a good place to start. So they write their own version of X, either from scratch, or using the sample X tapes as a starting point. This certainly produces a faster implementation, but it still doesn't tackle the complexity issue, and none of these are Open Source or Free Software.
IMHO, what's needed is a GUI that'll do for X what RISC architectures did for processors. Produce a MUCH simpler underlying architecture, using layers to provide more and more complex functionality.
How does this relate to GNOME, since that's where I started? Easy. Either GNOME or KDE is in a key position to write this "layered X", since they are projects sufficiently wide in scope to understand where bottlenecks and bugs creep in. Nobody else really has that kind of breadth of information.
Wouldn't it be better to pile effort into Berlin? There are too many problems with the approach taken. CORBA is known for horrible overheads, for example, and the CORBA implementation used is, AFAIK, not the same as the one used by either GNOME or KDE, which means a combined effort will require extensive rewriting.

Migual says as does the website that Gnome is wm independent. If Gnome was truely wm independant it would not have sawmill as a default manager nor the head of sawmill as the window steering chair.
I would offer the following alternative to this problem. Have or develop rpms that work specifically for the different wms. That way people have a valid alternatives to sawmill. What do you think?
We can have anti-aliased fonts in a buggy core as opposed to anti-aliased fonts in patches with integration problems...
Not to say that GNOME has bugs, of course.
Trader Joe's Mushroom Medley is a unique mixture of four kinds of mushrooms, sliced, quick frozen and ready to sauté, with it's own packet of black bean seasoning. It cooks quickly and can be served over rice or noodles, in stir fry, as stuffing, or with steaks and omelettes.
Anyone know if there's intent to implement some kind of simplified IPC? Similar to DCOP? I'm a CORBA developer and even I think that CORBA presents a fair ammount of work to perform some relatively simple things.
BTW: Great Job on the multilingual!, as someone who likes to have his desktop in traditional chinese this is a big deal for me.
In the beginning, QT, the toolkit that KDE uses, had a license which a
few people thought was too strict. So they decided to make their own
desktop environment, and they called it GNOME. Since an X toolkit had
been developed for the graphics program "The Gimp", the GNOMErs
decided to build their desktop environment using The Gimp Toolkit
(GTK).
So, the GNOMErs looked at KDE, and they looked at Windows. They took
what they thought were the best parts of each, and the moulded it
together with the GTK to form GNOME. Some people think that GNOME is
far better than both Windows and KDE. Lately, the GNOME has got a
valuable addition: Open Office, the remnants of StarOffice. This would
really make it possible for GNOME to gain acceptance in the desktop.
Several commercial companies think that the GNOME is a viable business
enterprise. Eazel and Ximian are the most productive GNOME companies,
and they are releasing high quality GNOME applications even as we
speak. Ximian is distributing a GNOME distribution that is easy to
install over the Internet.
Now, QT is released under the GPL and thus the goal of the GNOME
project has been met (i.e., having a free "as in speech" desktop
environment). Since this means that there is no further use of the
GNOME project, I just don't understand why the talented GNOME
developers don't start developing for the KDE instead? Is it because
the GNOMErs only know how to code in C, and not in C++. There are
several good books and web sites on C++ programming, you know. Or if,
they still don't understand C++, why don't they help out the Linux
kernel developers? They definitely need more brains since the quality
of the developers has gone down drastically the last few years.
I'd really like to use it, but I've already got a mature GUI for my OS.
It's called KDE 2.2.1
KDE past the 2.0 mark quite some time ago. They have move well beyond gnome at this point and now are looking towards the 3.0 version. In fact I believe KDE 3.0 alphas have been out for a while now and betas should soon follow. Also KDE and QT both are all under either GPL or LGPL licensing for a while so that argument is gone as well. In other words all those people who ran around like idiots screaming "GNOME yeah GNOME power go go GNOME real GPL" really need to be quiet now. KDE also has a huge array of applications and front ends to various tools. The reason is many more developers want to write for KDE because it uses C++, it is completely object oreinted and has an extremely powerful yet easy to use API. Far superior for development in most areas then Gnome. Also KDE apps tend to be smaller and less resouces intensive than GNOME apps. Plus the fact that many GNOME apps require large numbers of external, add-on, optional and non-standard libraries that further add to the memory requirements of the application. It no wonder most new users flock to KDE rather than GNOME.
Really.

I just ran across a GNOME problem not just ten minutes ago. I want to build Dia because argouml is insufficient and Rose sucks.
Dia is under GNOME/stable. gdk-pixbuf is under GNOME/unstable. Anyone see the problem here? Who in their right mind can call Dia "stable" when it relies on an "unstable" library?

"But hardware != software", I hear some cry. Well, sorry to break it to you, but software is simply a simulation of hardware. There is nothing that you can do in software that you can't do in hardware. Faster.
Picture this - a graphics card that has a pure hardware implementation of XFree86 4.1, Gnome 2, and (just for the hell of it) KDE 2.2 as well. Nothing on the computer, the graphics is done entirely in silicon. This would free up much of the computer's RAM, unload much of the heavier cycle devourers, and produce one of the fastest GUIs on the planet.
"It wouldn't be free, though!"
Free as in free beer? No, it wouldn't, but if you want free beer, you're probably in the wrong place, anyway. You want the beer tent.
Free as in free speech? Why not? The hardware would need to follow GNOME, X and optionally KDE. X is the only non-free component of that. By having a re-implementation of it, you could make the hardware version totally free and totally unencumbered.

Napster-to-go says "Fill and refill your compatible MP3 player", which is a lie. It's not MP3. It's WMA with DRM.
Think is, KDE just finished the stuff they promised for KDE 2.0 with the 2.2.1 release. Gnome is still a better overall envirenment, and with support from Sun, the Office applications will become better, even though Abiword is still better than anything for KDE. Do yourself a favor and take a look at all the applications you really need from KDE... I did and found 0. You are trying to infer than KDE 3.0 will be out sooner than Gnome 2.0... It won't be. :-)

The Ouija board has been used by thousands of people for spirit communication and is very similar to automatic writing, the only difference between the two being the absence of the board itself in automatic writing. Both forms of communication are very dangerous; as are seances, because they are usually uncontrolled forms of communications. In other words, the individuals that use these channels are usually novices and are unaware of the possible dangers that await!
I don't mean to bitch, I really like gnome and look forward to switching back from KDE. The terminal is nicer, GIMP is cool, Galeon is the best web browser i've ever used, and Open Office looks promising (I know I can use these with KDE but I don't like having both GTK and QT loaded, I have better uses for my RAM). But right now KDE works, so that's what I'll use. But I'll give 2.0 alpha a shot... and when gnome works again, It'll be my primary desktop.
Good luck to those working on gnome... and expect some bug reports from me soon!
X has its flaws (see Chapter 7 of the Unix Hater's Handbook), but it was extremely important for the evolution of UNIX. Now, it's time for the next step.

Problem is software has bugs, and the tolerence for hardware bugs is exremely low. What happens when a bug screws over said video card? Reboot! How long does it take before that will get old?

X is very simple, for a windowing system, it's not complex at all. Plus no one has to see that stuff,
it's always hidden behind toolkits.
I think the major flaw with X is not it's excessive resource usage, complexity or speed, but the fact that it has no standard toolkit.
While a lot of linux kids see the ability to use any toolkit (or even implement their own) as a good thing,
I see it as a huge hindrance to usability.
A user has to learn the different behaviours of GTK, Qt, Motif, Athena
and virtually countless others, all with their own looks, hotkeys and ways of doing things.
Aside from the "feel" the "look" of X will always be discordant, further slowing the already
confused or annoyed user down in a quagmire of gradients and chrome.
IMO, if linux (or any UNIX aside from OSX) is going to have any chance at the desktop market,
X either has to standardize and enforce a single toolkit, or be replaced by something more modern.

Real progress can be defined as whether the secretary, farmer, mechanic, CEO, or whoever else who isn't a card-carrying geek was able to be more productive and feel better about using than computer than they were with the last version. Anyone,GNOME, KDE, or otherwise, who does not understand this does not understand the desktop. If you do not understand the desktop, you will at best produce a successful user-hostile abomination such as Microsoft did and survive entirely by the politics of corporate IT or at worst get your butt slammed across the entire computing industry.so Nautilus is effectively dead as well right? I mean who's gonna develop and update it now. Where is the Nautilus web site. The Eazel site just basically says (stupid also voice) "you've got .bomb"
I have often wondered if it would be technically feasible for a gnome->kde or kde->gnome translator in the source of the respective apps.
For instance I LOVE some gnome apps (such as gnumeric, evolution, galeon), however KDE is by far my desktop of choice.
How tough would it be to move a gnome app over to kde? I know there are some substantial differences (qt vs gtk, dcop vs cobra, etc) however could a translator be build to translate the source of one desktop app's use of an API to another dektop's API?
It would be so cool to have gnome apps use qt (and thus have all apps look and feel the same). . .
I'm not a high-lever programmer at all (device drivers are my suit) thus I do not know much on the subject of GUI programming.
BTW I have a feeling that gnome will be making some big strides after Sun gets the ball rolling
(hopefully HP will follow Tru64's pursuit in this also -- however I think HP may still try to milk CDE otherwise known as Dashboard for those who remember the failed Windows 3.1 program manager
It's cool to see this starting to come to fruition, but there are problems that we need to keep in mind.
Most things in linux have an incredibly short product cycle. While this means good things get to the public faster, it also discourages some developers. When you have a different libc, different toolkit API coming out every six months, it's hard to convince some people it is worth it to develop for. If you developed against Windows 95, for example, it still runs even without recompilation. Where were Linux systems back then? Everything about typical Linux systems has changed since then, from standard GUI toolkits (GTK and QT, don't think so..), desktop environments (Probably best you could do was CDE), to such fundamentals as the standard C library. Change is good, but in the world of Linux, the change is often done with little to no regard for running the programs of five minutes ago. Binary compatibility is flaky, and even the APIs have changed so drastically. These large projects need to give more thought to compatibility, rather than forcing people with GTK 1.2 apps to do rewrites for 2.0 rather than be left behind..
XML is like violence. If it doesn't solve the problem, use more.
From the page linked to in the above post: "Children are inserted into containers...." Outrageous!!
Yet sitting down to a windows box is proof positive that X is slow.
Repeat after me:
X is not slow!
X is not slow!
X is not slow!
It is the toolkits that are built on top of X that are not tremendously fast, and in particular GTK+ and Qt (GTK+ seems somewhat worse than Qt in this respect but neither are examplary).
Proof:
Open up an application that uses one of the older, simpler toolkits such as Xt. A simple xterm perhaps, or xman, or xpaint. Enlightenment is also blazing fast. Play. See that X is in fact very, very fast indeed.
Now why is this? Why do the modern GUI toolkits appear to be slow?
Well, I think it comes down to optimization and architectural work. Both Qt and GTK+ are big libraries that attempt to do a great deal of work. But, for instance, neither of them use threads by default. Both use a technique known as an event loop to simulate threaded behaviour, but this is not ideal in terms of speed or efficiency.
Why do they not use threads? Because of cross-platform compatibility issues. Until very recently, FreeBSD's pthread implementation was thoroughly broken, and FreeBSD is a major target for both GTK+ and Qt. So, although Qt, for instance, has had its own thread API and the option of being threaded internally for some time (since qt 2), this has been switched off by default on all *nix platforms until FreeBSD got their act together.
Threading of the toolkits and the desktops and apps built around them will probably be the most significant single optimization to come, but there is other optimization work to be done too. Give it a little time, it will happen.
I'm sure I need not point out that the toolkits that sit atop the Windows GDI are, for the most part, pervasively multi-threaded, and this is where much of their perceived speed comes from.
But please do not blame X for the failings of the toolkits built on top of it. My (admittedly subjective) impression is that when blasting pure Xlib at X, it is at least as fast as raw GDI calls in Windows (see Xscreensaver vs. Windows screensavers for evidence of this).
t is owned by Trolltech that sells more advanced versions of Qt. This means that if someone wanted to add new features to the free Qt, like for instance the ones included in the commercial versions, and Trolltech didn't like it, a new branch would need to be started.
Just to set the record straight:
Qt Free edition (licensed under either the GPL or the QPL, according to your taste) is identical in every way to the full Qt Enterprise edition that is Trolltech's premier commercial product.
Let me reiterate that: Qt Free edition is not cut down in any way whatsoever!
After all, why should it be? It is licensed only for Free software development, so it does not and cannot interfere with Trolltech's sales to commercial developers.
Thus your scenario of a Qt Free edition fork occurring due to people reimplementing features present in QT Enterprise edition will not happen - because there are no features to reimplement!

I think the major flaw with UNIX is not it's command line, complexity or speed, but the fact that it has no standard shell.
While a lot of linux kids see the ability to use any shell (or even implement their own) as a good thing, I see it as a huge hindrance to usability. A user has to learn the different behaviours of bash, csh, ksh, tcsh and virtually countless others, all with their own prompts, line editors and ways of doing things. Aside from the "look" the "feel" of UNIX will always be discordant, further slowing the already confused or annoyed user down in a quagmire of quotes and pipes.
IMO, if linux (or any UNIX aside from OSX) is going to have any chance at the desktop market, it either has to standardize and enforce a single shell, or be replaced by something more modern.
No, wait! make that no standard text editor. I mean, no standard window manager. I mean, no standard programming language. I mean...
Point is, you can standardize on a toolkit for X if you want to, but that doesn't mean everyone should.
Enlighten me - why shouldn't the X crowd standardize on a single widget toolkit? What are the developer and user drawbacks of this?
War is one of the most horrible things a human can be exposed to. And one of the worlds largest industries.

You have a valid point, but i think you are forgetting something very important.
If I, as a card carrying geek find that a new version increases my productivity or enjoyment when using the system, then it can be marked down as positive progress.
Creating a desktop environment which computer-illiterate people can use is a wonderful thing to do, and I am sure that most people here would rejoice. But it's not the only measure of success.
There are many reasons for developing Open Source Software, but non-UNIX-user satisfaction doesn't rate all that highly for me. Current user satisfaction and developer satisfaction seem at least as important.
Something that many people seem to forget is that stealing users from other OSs (any other OS) isn't - or at least shouldn't be - the goal.
