That was a disaster. I installed the package [gmix] and there were no errors. I then typed gmix and the the top and bottom task bars stopped responding to mouse clicks or redrawing when something is placed over them and subsequently moved. Fortunately I still had the terminal window open and was able to shutdown. Upon restarting and relogining the control center and terminal window were open again but not indicated in the bottom taskbar. Again the bottom taskbar wasn't responding to mouse clicks.
I uninstalled gnome-media and the problem persists.
This problem doesn't exist if I login as a normal user.
As it stands now if I login as root the control center and a terminal window are open and the task bars at the top and bottom are useless so the only way I know of to logout is to shutdown and then login as a normal user.
It looks like some gnome settings got hosed.
This is starting to feel alot like working on a Windows machine.
What I need to know now is how do I get the gnome settings for the root account back to where they were before this started.

Assuming you don't mind going back to the system defaults for root's Gnome settings:
cd /root ls -al rm -rf [anything gnome-related]
