Subject: Gnome desktop does nothing no icons

Dear list,

   Apparently Gnome does not want to work.  It just
loads the wallpaper and no icons.  I am looking for
gnome-session in .gnome2 or .gnome directory and
cannot find it.  How should I reset gnome again to
display everything.

[olivares localhost .gnome2]$ ls
accels  gedit-2             gnome-volume-control 
nautilus-scripts  totem
evince  gedit-metadata.xml  keyrings             
share
[olivares localhost .gnome2]$ cd ../.gnome
[olivares localhost .gnome]$ ls
gnome-vfs
[olivares localhost .gnome]$ 

As a result of the updates, the kde icons for
OpenOffice look differently from the old ones that we
are acustomed to (bluecurve).  It is ok. 

How do I get gnome back so that I can have both
working for me.

Thanks,

Antonio

Gnome starts up and only gkrellm shows up no panel, no windows nothing just gkrellm and the background.  I tried killall -9 gnome-panel but it did not work.  The only thing I modified is the NetworkManager dispatcher, I turned it on with chkconfig, but I do not know that that made it happen.

Thanks,

Antonio
