Select desktop environment not working - Ubuntu 12.10

[Canaryguy]

Hello,

I installed Ubuntu 12.10 x32 and after that I installed the Gnome Shell Desktop Environment but when I log out and try to change to Gnome I see the option but I cannot select it, it doesn't work.

Anybody having the same problem?

I just installed Gnome, and what you have to do is select the desktop environment, then click OK. Log in, and you should have it.

I installed Gnome successfully through the Software Center. Short after the instalacion it asked me what gdm I wanted and I left the default option "lightgdm" Then I logged out and in the logging screen, before writing my password I try to change to Gnome but I cannot select it, the list of the other desktops environments that I have installed appear but I cannot select any of them.

Did you just log out, or did you restart? If you just logged out, try completely restarting, then try to select it, then OK, then your password.

I tried logging out, restarting the computer and even turning it off. The only thing I haven't tried is to uninstall and reinstall it again.

Then I am at a complete loss. You might try uninstalling then reinstalling the environment.
