upgrading to gnome 2.12

[anthonyriga]

Thanks  for the help Jesse
 They must not of put the 2.12 stuff in the repositori
yet I dont see them. Ill wait and try. I like the way
Ximian does thier install of the desktop I wish there
was some a way doing it that way. I dont really like
the desktop though but the installer is easy.
