That is a common problem when installing gnome on slackware. The DLG site has instructions to fix I believe.

He is a link :LinuxPackages :: View topic - Freerock Gnome and KDE coexistance

I have used both DLG and Freerock gnome. FRG is less intrusive although not always the latest desktop, but I havn't checked recently. FRG packages have been a good resource when running gnome apps independently on my standard slackware install.
