Thanks for the tip Ed,
actually when I run "startx" I get the error that the command was not found. Similarly a locate for startx (after the database was built) returns nothing. I also checked for that log file (The XFree86) and I couldn't find it.
I'm running v. 4 of Enterprise WS

I'm trying to start it manually to get a more explicit error (yes I've checked /var/log/messages) but I guess startx has been deprecated.
What's the new method for starting gnome manually? Keep in mind that I'm already at Init(5) and gnome is not launching.
startx is just fine....but you don't say what level of RH you are running either. You may actually want to look in /var/log/XFree86.0.log.
