		<description>I found some clues in errors logged when gnome-session is started. To capture the errors, I added a file named .Xclients in my home directory. It has only one line:
  exec /usr/bin/gnome-session 2&gt;&gt; ~/x.err

Errors found in x.err were:
&lt;pre&gt;
(gnome-panel:2511): Pango-WARNING **: No builtin or dynamically
loaded modules were found. Pango will not work correctly.
This probably means there was an error in the creation of:
  '/etc/pango/pango.modules'
You should create this file by running pango-querymodules.

(gnome-panel:2511): Pango-WARNING **: pango_shape called with bad font, expect ugly output

(gnome-panel:2511): Pango-WARNING **: pango_font_get_glyph_extents called with bad font, expect ugly output

** (nm-applet:2532): WARNING **: &lt;WARNING&gt;       nma_dbus_init (): nma_dbus_init() could not acquire its service.  dbus_bus_acquire_service() says: 'Connection":1.5" is not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo" due to SELinux policy'
&lt;/pre&gt;

The 'ugly output' sounds on the point! so, I checked the errors related to pango first. Sure enough, I don't have /etc/pango/pango.modules! However, I don't have pango-querymodules either. Instead, the upgraded CentOS 5 server does have pango-querymodules-32 instead. - First clue that something was aged.

I reinstalled all pango packages then restarted X windows. no go.  A query to list files provided by pango package (rpm -ql pango) shows that the pango.modules does exist,  though under a different path at /etc/pango/i386-redhat-linux-gnu/pango.modules. The latter matches output by  pango-querymodules-32.

Now the dbus error looks suspicious. So, I listed all rpms with dbus in their names. I was surprised that dbus package was listed twice with a much older version.
&lt;PRE&gt;
dbus-0.22-12.EL.9
dbus-x11-1.0.0-6.el5
dbus-python-0.70-7.el5
dbus-1.0.0-6.el5
&lt;em&gt;dbus-glib-0.70-5&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/PRE&gt;

Pretty sure dbus-1.0.0-6.el5 should be the new one for CentOS 5 (RHEL 5, thus the el5 release tag).  So, I deleted the old one by 'rpm -e  dbus-0.22-12.EL.9' then restarted X window by 'killall -TERM gdm-binary'...
