Are you sure, all packages in desktop/ built fine? Did you use 'make
paranoid-install'?

Did you run the update-foo magic once? Something like this:

#!/bin/sh
XDG_DATA_DIRS=$GARNOME/share
XDG_DATA_HOME=$XDG_DATA_DIRS
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=$GARNOME/etc/xdg
export PATH XDG_DATA_DIRS XDG_DATA_HOME XDG_CONFIG_DIRS
$GARNOME/bin/update-desktop-database
$GARNOME/bin/update-mime-database $GARNOME/share/mime


FWIW, there is no start-here:// any more in Nautilus 2.10, so no
surprise this isn't available.

You don't need to remove the hidden files -- and unless this includes
dirs (which are files in Unix/Linux land) as well, you kept most of your
configuration data anyway...

Actually, removing *all* hidden files in $HOME is *not* a wise idea.
Think about collateral damage, .bashrc, .procmailrc, ...

It does. Though some packages need to either be built manually from
bootstrap/, or installed in it's *-devel counterpart from your distro
(like hal, xft, fontconfig).
