Satish:

I've done that.  What it looks like is that gnome-session is hard coded 
to look at /usr/lib as well as rhbg.  This is causing several problems.  
I addressed this on the fedora-list and amost became a victim of a flame 
fest.  I am waiting on the release of FC3 to see if this problem is 
addressed.  If not, I'll be looking a different distro.
