Okay..,I:
Logged off Gnome
Killed pids
rm'd ~/.gnome/session
mv'd ~/.gnome/sound/system out of the way
mv'd ~/.gnome/Gnome back into place (said "Yes" to if I wanted to
overwrite the current "Gnome" file)
Logged off system
Logged back on
Ran "startx"

The login time was good (3 - 5 seconds), although there is the case
where my normal background image appears.., then it gets covered by
"what looks like" the default (blue) Sawfish desktop, then my background
image comes back slowly again.

Is this what you would have expected?

Regards,

Stacey
