Unfortunately, GNOME still didn't start, Instead I got the error
message:
SESSION_MANAGER=local/jjlinux.jwramsey:/tmp/.ICE-unix/3575,
tcp/jjlinux.jwramsey:5302
Unable to connect to server port 35091
This generally means that the program could not talk to the esound
server
Priority 00: Starting Id = default0
Priority 00: Cloning Id = default0
Priority 00: Registering Id = (null)
Of course gnome-session can't connect to esound, since I don't have
it, but how do I tell gnome-session not try to connect to esound?
