I'm not sure I understand this -- why did you terminate it?

Have you created ~/.xinitrc?

zxc..., if you are wondering where your first post went, it looks like you hit "report" rather than "reply".

Head_on_a_stick is right, as usual - it looks like you need a ~/.xinitrc. Without that file in your user's home directory, xinit starts twm, with a couple xterms and xclock. This is exactly what is shown in your image.

Even though I don't know if this is related, but just to rule out that this would interfere:

It is usually a bad idea to name your host "localhost".

Three things:

1) It is dangerous to run X as root and should simply never be done unless you know exactly what you are doing and why you are doing it (so you shouldn't)

2) That xinitrc is a copy of the systemwide one, which is why you are seeing xterms and xclock in twm: there is nothing about gnome in there.

3) Even if you tried to launch gnome from there, I believe gnome pampers users enough to not start up as root.

To do this right, create an xinitrc for your *user*, or post it if you have already done so. What have you actually done to set up gnome?

I don't think this will affect the gnome after finish all the installation I will modify it

Thank you for your reminder
Have been using the root operation This is my mistake, I should pay attention to it
Gnome cannot start because I don't have the right to modify ~ /. Xinitrc
Now I am gnome has launched the thank you very much
