Are you sure that did install gnome? I'm pretty sure that it's TWM coming up when you type startx, just like LivinFree said. The thing is that if you are not expert it's hard to find desktop switcher under twm
So I recommend switching the desktop manually. There should be a file called .Xclients-default in your homedir. if it's not there then just create it yourself. inside the file put a line that says:
exec gnome-session
save the file and restart x. if it will fail then you defenetly didn't install gnome or for some mysterious reason it failed during installation (happened to me once while installing SuSE 7.2)
