How to start gnome ?

[Jasper Frumau]

Also got an X11 pop-up saying:

There is a problem with the configuration server.
(/opt/local/libexec/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256)

and then I got:

process:68304): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
    Using the fallback 'C' locale.
The files that contain your preference settings are currently in use.

You might be logged in to a session from another computer, and the other
login session is using your preference settings files.

You can continue to use the current session, but this might cause temporary
problems with the preference settings in the other session.

Do you want to continue? Continue (y/n)?y

This was shown on the second try when I clicked OK to continue when the
pop-up showed up and when I said y (yes) to continuing
