I installed the gnome-control-center package and am getting closer. It still will not log into GNOME though. The window that popped up with the error message no longer appears. It just fails to load GNOME. From .xsession-errors I have: Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1 Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1 X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown). X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown). I am guessing that there are still some packages missing from the install. Does not seem to be a permissions issue since I get the same errors from both root and user. Thanks, Jim Seymour -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
