Gnome, VNC, and RedHat 8.0

Good Morning:

Previously, I had put a posting on view problems with VNC.  Since then, I have found that I can get the KDE windows manager to work, but not the Gnome interface.  

This is the xstartup file config that I have: 

#!/bin/sh
[-r $HOME/.Xresources] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls
startkde &
#gnome-session &

If I comment the startkde and uncomment gnome-seesion, all I get is a blank screen and a terminal session.  I am not sure if this is an issue with using RedHat 8 as I did not have this problem with RedHat 7.3.

Any help would be appreciated,
Tim
