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
# apt-get 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
If you run sid and you aren't afraid of living on the bleeding edge, you may want to have a look at ?GnomeTwoDotEight instead.
