Installing Gnome 2.8 on Suse 9.1 (Tuxme.com)

Tuxme.com presents a how-to article on installing Gnome 2.8 on SUSE Linux 9.1. "To make a long story short, I now am able to run Gnome 2.8 alongside KDE 3.3.1 without any problems thanks to APT and Mr. Ogley's rpm packages. (Why do I always want to type pancakes when trying to type packages?). The process wasn't smooth as butter, there was some manual 'rpm -Uvh package', find the missing dependencies, thank god for google once more, and repeat. But if you're a little savvy and adventures, you can do it, too. You might want to make a backup of your system if you'd hate to lose anything valuable."
