I messed up GNOME please help

[RandyRP]

I am using SLED (sorry to post here but there is not much going on in
that forum). In any event I was tring to uninstall Beagle and it took
some other things away too...When I boot the machine, it will not start
GNOME. I can boot into a command line or right now it is booting into
FVWM. I am hoping to get GNOME back..From a command line when booting
failsafe I get the following:

"Gtk Warning Cannot Open Display"

I do not have a DVD burner but can transfer files from one PC to
another via an SD card and do have access to anything I need to
restore/install.

Any help in greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you, the machine wants to run Fvwm2 this shows Yast, but install
is non-responsive. Yet yast from the command line does not let me
install some of the rpm's I put on my desk top.

Hi
Move them off the desktop to your home directory.....

mv ~/Desktop/*.rpm ~/

Thank you. I actually ended up learning how to install from the command
line. I think all will be OKAY. However at this point I am trying to get
the machine to load GNOME (from having booted up in failsafe) instead of
Fvwm2.

Your help is appreciated.
