My GNOME desktop environment has been corrupted and is unusable. When I log on to GNOME, several empty dialog boxes are displayed (I can understand that they refer to errors, since they have a red stop sign above the "OK" button), all menus are gone, no panel to the bottom of the screen and I have to press "Ctrl+Alt+BackSpace" in order to exit from this mess. What makes me even more unhappy is that my beloved Evolution mail client has also been crippled.
I strongly suspect that this happened when I installed the "xfce" window manager (it requested that I execute some "xfce_setup" script, which apparently modified various GNOME-related configuration files).
Now, the question is: how can I bring my GNOME desktop back to life? Is there any initialisation script, that I can execute in order to recreate the GNOME configuration files? Should I uninstall & reinstall the RPM packages? If yes, which packages are included in the GNOME desktop?
I have a rather recent backup of my home directory, but I do not know which directories / files to restore.
Any help will be greatly appreciated...
