Description Leung Ki Chi 2005-07-19 19:42:09 UTC
1. I found a typo in the paragraph around the link to the fluxbox configuration
HOWTO at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/?catid=desktop .

Current: ... the Fluxbox windows manager ...

Should be: ... the Fluxbox window manager ...

2. There is a strangely-worded sentence in the HOWTO itself. 2 occurances of
"provide" and the "has not been ... that those are needed" part of the sentence
make the meaning a bit unclear.

Current: While Gentoo provides the USE flags of gnome and kde which are to
provide "compatibility" for those WMs, it has not been the author's experience
that those are needed.

Suggested: While Gentoo provides the gnome and kde USE flags to give
compatibility with these WMs, it has been the author's experience that these USE
flags are not needed.

Reproducible: Always
