I also had gnome working fine, then one day it failed for no apparent reason, I hadn't emerged anything for a bit that I recall.
I did "emerge unmerge nautilus" and then "emerge nautilus" which seemed to to do the trick for me. why? voodoo. why nautilus and not some other component? IIRC that's where the gnome desktop "stalled". -Thufir -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
