This is what I tried initially, but as I said, the nvidia kernel
module needed modversions.h, which is only in the kernel-headers
package, not in the kernel-source.

Well, we sort of got gnome running, although it's a huge cludge...  in
/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc, we had

gnome-wm &
exec panel

instead of all the xterm/xclock jazz.  This doesn't actually load
gnome in full, so I'm kinda stuck.  I've looked through my own storm
setup, but since I'm using gdm, I use /etc/X11/Xsessions, not xinitrc.
What's the proper way to start Gnome?  I haven't been able to find any
docs on this.  I guess re-installing Helix Gnome is an option, but
it's already there, just not being started correctly.
