Although it's KDE and not Gnome, KAlarm has worked very well for me -- even 
when I was running a Gnome desktop. You can set it tell you that the coffee 
will be done in ten minutes, or to perpetually remind you that Friday is 
payday. I'm not sure if it is available as a separate rpm, or if it is part 
of a kde package.
