~/.xinitrc you should have written if you are starting X with startx.
It's contents should be something like this if you want to start gnome:
---
export XDG_MENU_PREFIX=gnome-
exec dbus-lanuch --exit-with-session \ 
        gnome-session --session=${SESSION_NAME} 
---
Where ${SESSION_NAME} references to one of the files in
/usr/share/gnome-session/sessions, or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gnome-
session/sessions , e.g. '--session=gnome', there's more info about this
in the gnome-session(1), and startx(1) manuals.

I use it as a fall-back way to start an X session with awesome WM. when
gnome isn't working(which hasn't happened in a long time), or I just
don't want to use much RAM, because I need more than 2 VMS.
