[csw-users] gnome is broken horribly?

Ok, downgraded to 2.8 using pkg-get -s
http://ibiblio.org/pub/packages/solaris/csw/stable -U -S -u

now it "hangs" when the splash screen shows nautilus.  I never get more than
a black desktop.  Many more apps terminate spontaneously.... still no
evolution either.

Might there be a start log for gnome I can look at?
