Things never work very well for me before having coffee either, but that's probably not the real solution. So when you established that your network and DNS was working, Gnome was working too? Can you log in on a virtual character-mode terminal session (control-alt-F2) and try the ifconfig and dig commands again? If everything appears to work there, I'd try a 'yum update' just on general principles.
Sure. Will do dig and ifconfig again. Did yum update this morning,23 packets updated .Worked fine. You need the output from dig and ifconfig again?
No, if yum update worked we know the network is OK. What happens if run 'init 3' (should shut down the partly-working X session), and then 'startx' which will start a new one under your existing login?
