Hi Havard,

I found a work around to my problem in the bug database.  The problem was 
reported by some one using libgtop-1.0.5.  The solution seems to work but 
will confirm this when I get GNOME completely built.  No I do not have 
patch-al.  I have not read of this file in any documentations.  Could you 
tell me how I could get this?  I would be interested to know how 
libgtop-1.0.6 turns out on your hp300.  Thank you.

Regards
Julius
