+	    <p>Short answer is you can.  The problem is most likely that you have
+		Launch Feedback (xalf) enabled.  xalf is a FreeBSD library, and cannot
+		load Linux applications.  When you try to load a Linux application,
+		nothing will happen, and something like the following will show up
+		in <tt>~/.gnomerc-errors</tt> or on stdout:</p>
+
+		<pre>
+/usr/local/Acrobat4/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error in loading shared 
+libraries: /usr/X11R6/lib/libxalflaunch.so.0: ELF file OS ABI invalid.
+		</pre>
+		
+		<p>To workaround this problem you need to disable Launch Feedback.  To 
+		do this, open up the GNOME Control Center, and select 
+		Desktop->Launch Feedback.  Uncheck all the options.  Click OK.  
+		You should now be able to launch your Linux apps from the GNOME panel.
