Gnome does not start
Hi all!
I have installed Xwindow, gdm and finaly:
apt-get install gnome.
After a reboot I get the gdm inlog promt, but after login I get the Xwindow standard window and "basic" green menu, when clicking on desktop.
I have tried to use command: gnome-session, but command does not exist. (Beeing in folder /usr/X11R6).
Do you have to be in a specific folder to execute command?
Or what am I doing wrong?
I have tried to change setup on gdm to graphic login and that works fine but I don't end up in gnome desktop.
Many thanks!

Ofcause I did not had any period, I wrote:
apt-get install gnome
I tried to start Gnome in failsafe mode but I got the info that gnome was not installed. After my install I was told to update as a couple of packages wasn't able to be downloaded. I did that and the rest was installed without any problems.
Do I have to reinstall gnome?
