I just apt installed gnome (the actual packages told apt to grab are
below), and apt didn't give a hint anything went wrong. However, when I
try to open a gnome app (ie eeyes, gnomeicu, xchat, gnome-session, panel,
etc) nothing happens. There is a bit of cpu usage/disk usage real quickly
and then the box just sits there. Any ideas what might be causing this?
(Btw, running i386 slink...)

Here is what I told apt to grab and install (it installed more of course,
but this might help): task-gnome-apps task-gnome-desktop task-gnome-net
wmaker-gnome gmc gnumeric gnomeicu gtk-engines-gtkstep gtk-engines-metal and
gtop. (I specifed specific apps because I wasn't sure if they were in the
task packages, so I went ahead and specified them.) If it would help to
see a log of the entire apt session I can post that too (I ran the install
under script).

thanks! (a /huge/ thanks!)
