Hi all,

fine for me.

I reinstalled the whole operating system to make sure that there is no piece 
of libFoundation somewhere that might cause trouble. I installed 
GNUstep/PC/Gorm following these instructions: 
http://gnustep.made-it.com/BuildGuide/
I had to build gnustep-gui with setting 
OBJC_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/local/include/libpng make \ 
GNUSTEP_INSTALLATION_DIR="$GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT" install
I did not install the ArtResources.

I do not have the start scripts installed, but have gdnc, gdomap and ddbd 
started manually.
