yeah now that i think about it you are right it is a bug
we cant have nubie users getting confused right from the start
ill have a look at the configure script and see if i can work out how to autodetect
athena by default
ok have been doing cvs diff's an the configure script
i noticed a new line that basically only checks for athena if it is specified as an
option
should athena be the default widget set used ???
i basically removed the line that checks if widgets are defined as athena
optional patch that defines widgets as athena sent as well
patch included below (this is my first patch so let me know if i did it wrong)
