I upgraded from fc8 to fc9, and my gnome (in x11) would not start for me. My whole upgrade process ended up like this: 0) yum update (on fc8) 1) upgrade via fc9 DVD 2) yum update 3) repeat step 2 until there are no more updates 4) remove the two font rpm packages as stated in this posting 5) login to KDE via x11, then logout (I do not know why this was necessary, perhaps a reboot will work the same) 6) login to GNOME via x11, and it should work. Thanks for this posting - it got me up and running. -RG This worked for me.
