Well, I don't know if it can help, but I had the same problem after
an installation with Sarge official testing CDs.

After some readings and investigations, I found by doing an
ifconfig that my loopback device wasn't configured. There was
only my ppp0 connection (adsl speedtouch usb, a pain in the a**).

try to do :

    ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
    route add -host 127.0.0.1 lo

For now it seems that gnome's working fine, but I'm doing some more tests
