no taskbar in gnome2

[David Wright]

I just upgraded to gnome2 in sid, and ran into a problem: there is no gnome taskbar (the thing with applets and a footprint menu). Most annoying this about this is that it's now impossible for a user to log out! (I have to become root and restart gdm.) Surely this can't be the way it was meant to be...

At first I tried converting and got this behaviour. Then I deleted .gnome2 and logged in again, hoping it would then give me a rational default. Still no taskbar. How do I get a taskbar and how do I get to some preferences page that will let me set stuff up?
