It sounds like your install overwrote your configuration files that came
with your distribution. Your probably using twm as your window
manager... to fix it, you'd have to re-configure your configuration files
or else place .xinitrc in your home directory. Inside .xinitrc you should
place:
exec gnome-session
I don't know if you have to explicitly put in sawmill in that file...
