Hi!

Just copy your .xsession file for root into the home folder of the user
you want to use Gnome for or use gdm. Having said that there is a lot of
information regarding updating Gnome which you can find at
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/. It would be wise of you to check the
FAQ's at this site for important information.

The Gnome mailing list is freebsd-gnome at freebsd.org where all questions
regarding Gnome on FreeBSD should be posted.

Cheers,
