In any case try the following on your normal account, $ cp ~/.gnome/gnome-session ~/.gnome/gnome-session.bak $ rm -rf ~/.gnome/gnome-session Try again. Maybe it will work. Another thing to try(I think it was already suggested), add another user and login using that user's profile. Test out whether that happens to the new added user. If it fails and gives you the same results, you can always fall back to KDE. Unless of course you want to use GNOME, save all your important files/etc, and reinstall Fedora. Start from scratch again. I know that this is a radical answer, but if all other things fail and you need GNOME. Regards, Antonio __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
