Michele, Thanks for the tip. By loading several additional fink packages, crucially the control-center libs, I got pass the GNOME_Settings Daemon error, and do get to a rooted gnome window. But still with lots of problems. And now my fink seems to be broken. When I get functional again, I'll pursue your gstreamer fix.
