rh8.0 gnome UI issues

[bruce]

hi...

i'm running rh8.0, using gnome as my UI. I have an issue that recently
started, in that when I try to select the 'Services' Icon, nothing happens.
I used to have a list of services which were displayed, so I could
start/stop the srevices as required... Now I have nothing!!!

Searching google hasn't presented a possible solution, so I'm hoping someone
might have a suggestion!!!!

I'm not skilled enough with command line functions yet, so I need my UI!!!

thanks..
