I had done
apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment
then
startx
gives an error along the lines of : "startx: unknown command."
Now I have also done
apt-get install gdm
apt-get install gnome
<wait a long time>
then, on boot gnome starts, I get a login window, do log in,
but am only given a blue screen without anything!!!
What to do?
Did you install xorg or at least xinit? This is not necessarily done
did not do that!

Did so. The situation now is: Finally, I am using gmail from Iceweasel
started from debian gnome. But my gnome setup is still very basic:
After login, there is basically only a blue screen. By leftclicking
the mouse, it opens a popup menu, and I could start this browser from
there. But the window do nao have any re-size icons , as usual.
There must still be something missing?
