Hi Jeff,

You *could*, I believe, uninstall GNOME and reinstall it. I think the
command would be something like

sudo yum remove gnome-desktop

Then, you should be able to reinstall it with

sudo yum install gnome-desktop

But before you remove your desktop, do more research on this. I could
be a bit off as to the repercussions of doing this and you could hose
your system.

If others could chime in on this method, I'd feel much more
comfortable lol
