Alpha 6 20081001 still fails.
-- CD Live freezes with black screen where Gnome 2 should have loaded background. It did get past the Ubuntu logon screen which is a bit farther along.
-- Install actually worked. I don't think it uses Gnome 2.
-- Booting the install fails. Here's some ugly messages from daemon.log:

I'm an "ordinary desktop user", not a developer, however "Application 'gnome-wm.desktop' failed to register" looks bad to me.
