How did you get gnome to even run? I cannot even install it. 
dpkg -i  gnome-core_0.20-1.deb    

fails by saying:

Reading database ... 21987 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking gnome-core (from gnome-core_0.20-1.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing gnome-core_0.20-1.deb (--install):
 trying to overwrite `/usr/share/pixmaps/mailcheck/email.xpm', which is
also in package gnome
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 gnome-core_0.20-1.deb

The interesting thinh is that  do not even have
'/usr/share/pixmaps/mailcheck/email.xpm' file in my system.
