Gnome, uhm, isn't really started. It is a collection of libraries and
an API which Gnome compliant programs use to share information. To see
Gnome in action you'll most likely need to get some of the Gnome utilities.

Personally, I prefer icewm-gnome. YMMV, however. Enlightenment is nice
and flashy, but over X/VNC to my Winbox it is too slow to really be useful.

Get some of the Gnome programs, best advice I think anyone can give you.
Uhm, in dslect (dunno if you use that) look for anything which has gnome- at
the start. Not quite sure how to do that with dpkg or apt.
