Correct.That's waht I meant,you have to install the kernel-headers
package that matches your running kernel.It's not obvious and really
not documented anywhere I could easilly find.

 You could use dpkg-reconfigure to just reconfigure helix-gnome.Altough
IMHO if you use gnome than installing gdm may be the easiest way.I
really
didn't look up into this kind of stuff(if one doesn't have a problem
ususally one doesn't look into it).As an idea you can check the
experimental X4 debs and see how the Debian is going about it.Just
beware they're highly experimental and you can't even fill bugs against
them.They can be found here http://www.debian.org/~branden/
Maybe a question in debian-devel would help more here.

The only description I found a while ago when I was playing with X4 and
gnome was to put in /home/foo/.xsession " exec gnome-session " which
didn't work at the time so I went back to kde due to lack of time.:-(
