Re: dnd problem

Hi Fred, 


Well I just fixed the font cache problem, I did a chown lgarcia.lgarcia
-R  /home/lgarcia/GNUstep

my DISPLAY is:
echo $DISPLAY
:0

I open Gorm.app now and I get: 
openapp Gorm.app
Sep 30 21:35:06 Gorm[2311] Pasteboard <NSPasteboard: 102ae048> doesn't
contain data of IBViewPboardType

I do a ps -A |grep 'gpbs'
 2331 ?        00:00:00 gpbs

So this means gpbs is running.

what is this <NSPasteboard: 102ae048> ?????? I mean the 102ae048

When I copy paste under Ink I get:
openapp Ink.app
Sep 30 22:01:10 Ink[2720] Problem during RTF Parsing: Syntax error in
RTF: parse error, expecting `'{''
