Please describe the problem:
When I try to login from GDM with a user from an LDAP directory with home directory on a mounted NFS export, the Gnome session is launched but it shows only the wallpaper, no panels, nothing else...

Steps to reproduce:
1. mount NFS exported home directory (autofs via LDAP)
2. enter username and password on GDM login


Actual results:
The Gnome session is launched but it shows only the wallpaper, no panels, nothing else...

Expected results:
A normal start of a Gnome session, panels appear and the desktop become usable.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
The only error messages I found are in /var/log/auth.log.
