How to start gnome ?

[Jasper Frumau]

Thanks for the patch Dan.

I do get further now, but there seem to be Xquartz Nautilus issues as you
mentioned:


Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display "/tmp/launch-0j5FRb/org.x:0".
Window manager warning: Screen 0 on display "/tmp/launch-0j5FRb/org.x:0"
already has a window manager

Not sure how to remedy that just yet..
