This problem does arise for quite a few other reasons, tho, not the least of which is simply that you didn't install GNOME correctly. The Debian packages, last I had used them, were rather horrible at getting up and running easily. Did you install using 'apt-get install gnome', or have you tried installing individual packages manually? Is the gconf package (not sure which Debian package name that's in) installed? > > That's all.
