lost the GNOME panel, how do I get it back?

[Elton Woo]

I installed 
gnome-panel-2.3.6.2-2.i386.rpm
from rawhide, and I guess in so doing, I manged to kill off the
Gnome panel. The only apps that run are the ones that I have
configured to autostart. I no longer have the applications list,
or even access to the console window.

HOW do I get back the default panel?
