Hello! Congrats on the first issue reported!

I'm guessing you tried to install GNOME by modifying the install.sh script for freonx. Anyway, you forgot to change your xinit file as described there. Don't worry it's easy to fix. Use your favorite text editor to edit the file /root/.xinitrc and change exec startxfce4 to exec gnome-session and try again. GNOME should work fine after that. Report back if you have any issues.

Just one more question, did you use the new fast installer (from the tarball)? How did it work for you? Any issues?

Cheers.

Hello, Yes that was it, I changed it to exec gnome-session and it worked, thanks. The only issue I have seen is that the cursor is a little slow and unresponsive. But other than that all things had worked so far. Yes, I used the new installer and the installation was really super fast and with no issues.

Great! Happy to hear it. You should tweak the touchpad settings to your liking from the GNOME settings. I will close the issue now, feel free to open another one if you have more questions. :)

Have fun!
