I bet one of the components is failing to start.  Might be due to a
missing library.  You should see some errors on the console indicating
why GNOME won't start.  I will need to see those errors, the command
you're using to start GNOME 2, as well as the packages/ports you have
installed.  It might also be helpful to know what version of FreeBSD
you're running.
