bluehen87 LQ Newbie Registered: May 2004 Posts: 1 Rep:	need to reinstall gnome desktop redhat9 Hello, I have screwed up the file associations in my Gnome desktop. Things like “start here” and “trash” are associated with Netscape and can not open. In addition I have been playing with VNC and deleted and renamed files; .Xclient is one file I deleted. I would like to totally reinstall Gnome and start over with a new profile (similar to an MS windows profile.) How can I reinstall Gnome without reformatting my machine and starting over? Many thanks to all.
