freebsd-gnome Digest, Vol 299, Issue 26

[Eric Turgeon]

Do you use gdm, xinitrc or gnome_enable="YES" in the rc.conf file.
if you dont  enable gnome in the rc.conf you can have this problem.
for enable gnome try in the terminal:

# ee /etc/rc.conf
writ :
gnome_enable="YES"

if you did that gnome work more easy.
