Sounds like your desktop manager is not loaded. In GNOME 1.4 your desktop can be
managed by either GMC or Nautilus. If you normally use GMC, just run the command
"gmc". If you use Nautilus, run "nautilus" and make sure that it is configured
to manage your desktop (in the preferences; in advanced mode).
