| 33 | wxWindows 2 for GTK is a port of wxWindows to the <a href="http://www.gimp.org/gtk" target=_top>GTK+ toolkit</a>, | |
| 34 | which is freely available for most flavours of Unix with X. wxWindows 2 for GTK is | |
| 35 | often abbreviated to wxGTK. wxGTK has a separate home page <a href="http://www.freiburg.linux.de/~wxxt" target=_top>here</a>. | |

| 8b283bb8 | 38 | <h3><a name="gnome">Does wxGTK have GNOME support?</a></h3> |
| ce3ed50d JS |
39 | |
| 40 | Currently wxGTK does not have any features that would involve dependence on any desktop | |
| 8b283bb8 | 41 | environment's libraries, so it can work on GNOME, KDE and with other window managers |
| ce3ed50d JS |
42 | without installation hassles. Some GNOME and KDE integration features are file based, and |
| 43 | so may be added without dependence on libraries. Other features may be supported in the | |
| 44 | future, probably as a separate library. | |
| 45 | <P> | |

47 | <h3><a name="redhat">Warning about GTK libraries supplied with RedHat</a></h3> |
| 48 | ||
| 49 | It seems that some versions of RedHat include a badly patched version of GTK (not wxGTK) | |
| 50 | which causes some trouble with wxWindows' socket code. Common symptoms are that when | |
| 51 | a client tries to establish a connection to an existing server which refuses the request, | |
| 52 | the client will get notified twice, first getting a LOST event and then a CONNECT event. | |
| 53 | This problem can be solved by updating GTK with an official distribution of the library. | |
| 54 | <P> | |
