X, GNOME, and Debian

[Jeffry Smith <smith mclinux com>]

Thanks to all the suggestions.  Checking .gnome-errors showed that
gnome couldn't find gnome-session.  Ran apt-get install gnome-session,
let it install gnome-session + dependencies, and GNOME came up just
fine.  Don't know why gnome-session didn't install the first time from
the debian CD, but if anyone else has the problem, check
.gnome-errors.

Thanks again
jeff

Thought for today:  brain fart n. 

 The actual result of a braino, as
   opposed to the mental glitch that is the braino itself.  E.g.,
   typing dir on a Unix box after a session with DOS.
