1. gnome-session is command starting the gnome desktop. In LXDE, lxsession should be the equivalent.
2. It's redirecting its stdout to nirwana as that obviously is not needed. It's communicating to e.g. the X server via other channels (e.g. UNIX sockets, shared memory, ...)
3. That puts a process into backgroud. man bash:
Quote:
If a command is terminated by the control operator &, the shell executes the command in the background in a subshell. The shell does not wait for the command to finish, and the return status is 0.
