I can't provide a solution but I've had the same problem. Try running
the control center using strace. You'll probably see that it tries to
find all kind of librep/rep-gtk related things. You need to fiddle
around with that a little, I'm afraid (put some extra symbolic links in
or so).


Cheers,
Remco.

Dunno if is the same problem as you guys are having, but I experienced severe 
trouble after installing potato and HelixGnome and trying to run the GNOME with 
my 'old' user configuration, had the control center freezing several times, 
didn't display desktop icons even if the files were installed and things like 
this... Those days I just backed up and then removed all my .gnome* 
configuration stuff in my $HOME and allowed GNOME to build a new configuration, 
and then I re-installed some configuration files out of the backed-up 
directories. Seems it was working fine, after... :)
HTH, have a nice evening...

I had exactly the same problem. Running sawfish-capplet directly 
from a terminal ought to give you some insight in what is going
wrong. In my case (a fresh install), rep was missing.
'apt-get install rep' solved my sawfish problems.

When I try to run gnomecc it crashes out of X and returns me to my KDM prompt.  
Is Gnome currently broken under Woody?
