I installed gnome2 from rc over the weekend on top of a working 1.4
Ximian Redhat 7.2 installation. I could not get gnome2 to work. X comes
up and shows a login. When I log in as any user a sound mixer app would
come on the screen and hang. This was the result of
/usr/bin/gnome-volume-control -i command in /etc/X11/gdm/gnomerc. If I
exited the mixer, I would get a gnome logo in the middle of the screen
and hang until X was killed.

I then installed garnome in the home directory and if I boot to that
gnome2 comes up and works flawlessly.

Today I installed the new snapshot from rc while running under garnome.
Now whenever I sign into any account other then the garnome one I get
the mixer once again but when I exit the mixer I get a menu, a panel and
a desktop with out icons and then the screen files with error message
boxes either about icons not displayable or nautilus not able to run.
The machine also slows to a crawl and eventually locks up.

I am still running perfectly under garnome. Any ideas.
