Yeah, way back they were.  The version that shipped with Red Hat 6.0 
wasn't really even usable, at least not without the updates.  I seems to 
remember that 1.0.39 in Red Hat 6.1 fixed a lot of stuff.  I haven't had 
many problems since "October Gnome" in the 1.0 series, which IIRC was 
available as a set of updates to Red Hat 6.1.

This is all ancient history.  I see a lot of stuff here and there about 
how unstable Gnome is.  It makes me think that some people haven't tried 
it for a couple years..
