When I first installed gnome, it installed xdm as my dialog manager instead of gdm. Look in /etc/init.d/ to see which one you are using. If it is xdm, switch to gdm, because it will always bring up the gnome panel (plus file manager) every time you pull up x through it. Also, the gnome panel (or gnome itself) will not start if you simply use the command startx. -- wcrowshaw
