I did find this out in another message here and they are right.  This is 
a missing piece (one of many!) in the text install.

Even if you select Gnome as your workstation WIndows environment, not 
all of Gnome gets in.  You still have to do:

yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment"


Then edit /etc/inittab file to reflect as shown below

id:5:initdefault:
   ^
This number should be 5.
