[snip] I can only suggest starting a normal session (i.e. exec mywindowmanager), and once there, try running gnome-session and poke around at it. You'll get an error when it tries to start your window manager, of course, but no biggie. You might also check the panel by itself ... run ``panel''. Finally, try a different window manager ... I vaguely recall, now that you mention it, problems running Enlightenment a few months back when trying the very first 1.0 release of gnome. So I run WindowMaker.
