HEADS UP TESTERS: New GNOME upgrade script available

Since you wanted feedback, here is some:

- gnome-upgrade.sh really took some time (about 15 hours on my
  PIII at 1GHz , 500 MB RAM)

- In general gnome2.5 works and no damage has been done to my
  non-gnome apps, but
- some things weren't installed (see my last message)
- many icons are missing in the gnome menu, but the apps
  themselves can be started.
- nautilus works faster, but opens in seperate windows (like the
  old windows explorer on NT)
- the log-out menu doesn't work - it just freezes the system. One
  has to restart the X server.

So I think this quite good for an experimental desktop upgrade.

Regards,

Uli.
