you shouldn't need to fool with ~/.xsession as gnome's session editor
does the job a little more cleanly. Once you get a terminal opened run
gnome-session-properties (if you can't find a pointy-clicky way to do
it, drop to a console and run "DISPLAY=:0 gnome-session-properties" )
this will let you add items to your session, set them to restart when
killed and other good things. once you have added the appropriate items
(such as gnome-panel), run gnome-session-save and log off/back on.
not quite a step by step, but hopefully enough of a nudge in the right
direction.
