Package: gnome-accessibility
Version: 1:2.22.2~5
Severity: important

After setting up base lenny system I installed xserver-xorg, gnome-core and gdm. Now when I activate the 
assistive-technologies without installed gnome-accessibility, logout and re-login results in a grey screen with a cursor 
but gnome fails to start a usable desktop environment. After doing a "rm -R .*" in home, I can login, again.
