First, make sure Gnome is installed (obviously). When you run 'startx' does the X-server start up? or does it crash? If it crashes, then something is wrong with your /etc/X11/XF86Config file.
If it starts up ok and you get to the Grey-ish background with the X-cursor, make sure you have something like 'exec gnome-session' (without the quote-marks) in ~/.xinitrc What version of XFree86 are you using? 3.3.6 or 4.1.0?
