Okay, as beginner to Debian GNU/Linux you need these tricks. When runthe installer the first time it will prompt you for a internet mirrior. This doe snot set your apt sources.list list. Once you reboot you need to do a su- for root and do an apt-setup and choose and set some sources.list repositories to get rest of the gnome desktop stuff.

Typical Repositories for Etch:
# Testing
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib
deb http://ftp.debian-unofficial.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free restricted
deb-src http://ftp.debian-unofficial.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free restricted

# multimedia
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org etch main


 Than you can do a apt-get install gnomedesktop-environment gdm to get rest of the stuff.
