If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/gnome-session
%  sudo port install gnome-session  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching gnome-session
--->  Verifying checksum for gnome-session
--->  Extracting gnome-session
--->  Configuring gnome-session
--->  Building gnome-session with target all

--->  Staging gnome-session into destroot

--->  Installing gnome-session

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using gnome-session with these commands:

%  man gnome-session
%  apropos gnome-session
%  which gnome-session
%  locate gnome-session
