I'm not exactly sure when, but whenever I start X, Gnome acts like it is
starting using Sawfish, but stops with the background color of the desktop
along with the little tip Gnome tip window that one can toggle on and off.
That is all that appears. No icons, no menu bars, nothing. Clicking on the
screen with the mouse has no effect. I have removed Fink and Xfree86 and
reinstalled numerous times and it always is the same. I have been able to
remove Sawfish and just use Enlightenment and it will start up.

When I remove Fink, I type "sudo rm -rf /sw" and to remove Xfree 86 I type
"sudo rm -rf /usr/X11R6 /etc/X11 /Applications/XDarwin.app". It does remove
them but there must be somewhere else that some files live because when
Sawfish attempts to start, the desktop background that comes up is not a
default one. It is one that I saved the last time I got the Gnome/Sawfish
thing  working.

I have the same setup and settings on my Powerbook and everything works just
fine; .xinitrc file included.

Any ideas?
