The Handbook says to start gnome do this:

	"If nothing special has been done to configuration file, then it is enough
to simply 	type:

	% echo "/usr/X11R6/bin/gnome-session" > ~/.xinitrc
	Next, type startx, and the GNOME desktop environment will be started."

This is not working because I don't have "/usr/X11R6/bin/gnome-session".
Are the instructions up to date, or have I done something wrong?  I just did
"pkg_add -r gnome" and it seems to be installed because in
/usr/X11R6/bin/gnome-session there exists gnomecc and gnome-config, etc.
