Re: problems getting it to load

[Tim Lewis <tlewis digaudio com>]

David,
Edit your /etc/hosts file and all your machine name to the localhost
line:

127.0.0.1   localhost <my_machine_name>

 Mine looks like this:

127.0.0.1   localhost tlewis

That should fix it.  It it still doesn't work, cd to /usr/share and
type:

chmod 755 *

This will change permissions for this folder, which I recall will also
stop gnome-session.  For those of you tuning in out there, sanity check
me please if I am mistaken.
Tim
