I began by installing Debian from CDs this went smoothly and the system was working.I then shut down and started again, GNOME was not loading at all so I used the commands as follows to get GNOME back:$ sudo apt-get install gdm3 gnome-core$ sudo apt-get install x-window-system-coreonce this was completed I tried both:$ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm3 startand$ startxI can't remember which one worked for me but at the moment, GNOME will start up, I can logon but once logged on:The desktop background won't display andwhen I go into the applications the frequently used ones are visible but when I switch to all apps they are not shown at all though the animation when the show apps button is clicked shows them either swooping away or toward the button.I have tried changing the icon theme, and also changing the GNOME version that is loaded at login but none of them fix this problem, I also tried a reinstall of the packages:$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-core x-window-system-core gdm3but none of them worked.If anyone can shed light on getting GNOME working that would be great thank you!
