Thank you! Finally! I knew it had to be some silly setting -dapper to edgy had
the same problem with gtk2 apps: some silly setting.
So I moved .gnomerc to the trash and finally my gnome desktop is working
properly.
The file ,gnomerc contained a dozen white lines and this one line:

That's due to gnome-compiz-manager then, do you use a non official
version on edgy?

Yes, as I said above I DID use an unofficial compiz, but I removed it.
Its settings were left behind.

Did you use a non official gnome-compiz-manager since you installed

Yes: in the past I installed, used for a week or so, and then uninstalled with

session, a new .dmrc gets created with a 'default' instead of 'gnome'
session.

Launching
$ metacity
solves the problem. But there are others. For example, my session should

core2 duo 2.33GHz Thinkpad T60p, and edgy did so in a split second).
Same with gnome splash: remains there forever, until clicked.
