It's great that you're trying out Gnome, but you can run any environment you want. For example, "aptitude install xfce4" should install XFce for you, or "aptitude install kde" should install KDE for you, or "aptitude install icewm wmaker ion" should install those three window managers for you. You're probably launching X via gdm; the gdm login window should have a menu item somewhere for choosing which environment you want to log into.
