Installing Gnome

The current ["metapackage"] for installing a good set of Gnome tools in [http://www.debian.org/releases/unstable sid], [http://www.debian.org/releases/testing sarge] and [http://www.debian.org/releases/stable woody] ["Debian"] is gnome. So, from the command line, run

 # aptitude install gnome

This will install additional software (gnome-office, evolution) that you may not want.

For a smaller set of apps, you can also do

 # apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment
