I put then /opt/gnome2/bin into PATH before /opt/gnome/bin so that gnome2 programs are called first/instead of the gnome-1.4 programs. If I have to run a gnome-1.4 program with the same name as the gnome2-program (e.g. addressbook) I use then the complete path. Further, the libraries don't get mixed up. All gnome2-libs are separated from gnome-1.4 libs , both lib-paths are in ld.so.config. Thus I can run gnome-1.4 application like gnucash, evolution, addressbook 'inside' gnome2 without any problem. Cheers, Klaus
