View Full Version : [gnome] Cannot start gnome after upgrade to 11.10

Installed are gnome-panel, gnome-shell, gnome-session-fallback

At the graphical login screen there are options for "Gnome Classic" (with and without effects) and "Gnome Shell", but no matter what I choose, Unity is what starts up. Contents of .xsession-errors are pasted below, and I don't really know where else to look. Any ideas?

Thanks.

After stopping lightdm and starting gdm I can now use gnome classic and shell, although the choice of desktop isn't sticky. If I log out, then after entering my username the default desktop is still Ubuntu rather than my choice at last login. Both Gnome Shell and especially Unity are acting flaky.
