Doh! And there I was all proud of myself for installing the sucker over the network and all.
#2: Are you starting from command line with startx or from kdm/gdm/xdm?
kdm/gdm/xdm -
Have you tried "startx gnome" or possibly "startx /usr/X11R6/bin/gnome"? Yes, that works. I'd like to make this work on startup - when the thing starts up it goes right into gnome. Can you point me at the right config file?
Do you have a .xsession or .xinitrc file? These are usually executed on graphical login. -- Stephen Patterson Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad.
