I believe /etc/sysconfig/desktop should contain the line
DESKTOP=GNOME
see /etc/X11/prefdm:
. /etc/sysconfig/desktop >/dev/null 2>&1
[ -n "$DISPLAYMANAGER" ] && DESKTOP=$DISPLAYMANAGER
if [ "$DESKTOP" = GNOME -o "$DESKTOP" = Gnome ]; then
preferred=gdm
elif [ "$DESKTOP" = "KDE" -o "$DESKTOP" = "KDE1" -o "$DESKTOP" =
"KDE2"
]; then
preferred=/usr/bin/kdm
elif [ "$DESKTOP" = AnotherLevel ] ; then
preferred=/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm
