I use the following little script to test stuff like that out in an
Xnest window

#!
export GAR=/opt/garnome-0.29.1
Xnest -geometry 800x600 :2 &
export DISPLAY=:2
export PATH=/opt/ant/bin:/opt/java/bin:$GAR/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:opt/media/bin:/opt/python/bin:/usr/share/texmf/bin:.
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$GAR/lib
$GAR/bin/gnome-session
killall Xnest
kill -9 `ps |grep gconf | cut -f1 -d' '`

Works like a charm :)
