I'm building a new "testing" machine today, and I can't sem to get Gnome to
work.

I'm using gdm, and when I log in I get an error popup about the session
manager ahving problems.

Here's the .xsession-errors file:

/etc/gdm/Sessions//Gnome: checking /etc/login.defs for option UMASK
/etc/gdm/Sessions//Gnome: /etc/login.defs: "UMASK" is "022"
/etc/gdm/Sessions//Gnome: checking /etc/login.defs for option ULIMIT
/etc/gdm/Sessions//Gnome: checking /etc/login.defs for option MAIL_DIR
/etc/gdm/Sessions//Gnome: /etc/login.defs: "MAIL_DIR" is "/var/mail"
/etc/gdm/Sessions//Gnome: using /etc/X11/Xsession.options for options
SESSION_MANAGER=local/cogenvs:/tmp/.ICE-unix/1555
Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1
Gnome-Message: gnome_execute_async_with_env_fds: returning -1


I'm trying to use sawfish-gnome as a window manager, if it matters.

I would just bail, and use KDE, but I need spome of the Gnome apps to work
properly for the purpose of this machine.

How can I fix this?
