Yet another big gnome problem (YABGP)

Hello guys.
I played with my fonts in kcontrol and so (I use gnome...) and deleted
the file ~/.fonts-config. Maybe I changed something else, too. I don't
really know. But now gnome does not want to start anymore for my primary
user. It works perfectly with my other user-account. And KDE works for
my primary account at the moment. Problem:
I enter username/password in GDM (changed my theme), press "Enter" and
my screen becomes blue - so far, so okay (that's usual). But then I hear
the usual gnome drums and my desktop freezes. Nothing happens
anymore.The screen stays absolutely blue. I can use the TTYs and so.
Reboot does not help. I have some backups but I do not really want to
use them. And that may not be such a big problem (I hope...).

Can anybody help me?

greetings...
