Actually it was pretty easy, when I moved .gnome2 out of the way, by customization to the applications which are saved during the session, those were gone but i can happily live with that, as more important is that I got my desktop back. Just to reflect here is my paste of .xsession -errors now http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15175/ Thank you everybody for your help/suggestions.
