As root I can fire up gnome (1.4)just fine. However, as a user, gnome hangs on the splashscreen. I am running XFree86 4.2 and have x11/wrapper installed. All was working fine with XFree86 4.2 and gnome 1.4 before I upgradded. I do know that I messed up with mergemaster, and ended up having to use adduser to re-add users since I blew away /etc/master.passwd and /etc/groups. It is possible that I messed something else with mergemaster. Any ideas where to look before I try re-compiling gnome?
