I just upgraded squeeze to wheezy on a remote vps host, a "Linode."
Gnome will only launch as far as running the session provided by the
gnome-session-fallback' package.
Prior to installing _that_ package gnome's failure was sufficiently
hard to prevent the vpn server on the host from launching at all.
If, instead of gnome-session, either xfce4-session or icewm-session
is named in the vpn server xstartup file, they come up very nicely,
and, hence, so does my vpn server.
Here are the relevant lines from syslog:

Although I can live with icewm I would rather have my old gnome
desktop back!
All best,
