usually, there are two ways to start your gnome desktop, 1, at system start, gdm or xdm will automatically run, 2, type `startx' as a normal user from one of your virtual console if it used to start gui automatically, but now it doest, then the first thing that maybe broken is your X system, look at your system log dir, if `XFree86.0.log' exists, read it. the latter case, you want to check ~/.xsessionerrors for some useful message.
