Anyone? Anyone at all?

Pretty please?


Hi,
I installed gnome and removed KDE from an installation. Now when I reboot I
cannot get gnome to start, but rather icewm. When I go into that wm's control
panel and look I cannot see gnome listed. But it's there in
/usr/X11RC/bin/gnome . I looked in .xinitrc and thought I had inserted the
right line after kde:

elif text -x /usr/X11R6/bin/gnome ; then
WINDOWMANAGER=/usr/X11R6/bin/gnome

But this was a guess - can anyone help?

Thanks,
NIck
