I've removed all session files (rm ~/.gnome/session*) and went through
the logoff / login routine as before. No change., still delays (2 mins
18 seconds).

I created a user called "gnome"
Logged off the system
Logged in as "gnome"
Ran "startx"
I got logged in *immediately* into X-Windows

I didn't actually create a .xinitrc file for "gnome", as yet, so
Gnome-1.4 wasn't launched. 

I'll do that and get back to you with the results.

Stacey
