When you say "add gnome repository" what exactly did you add?

[shgn]

I added


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3

The Gnome Shell is in the software center , and the ppa is optional and use at your own risk. There should have been three commands needed to properly install the ppa , so check the instructions you used.

They might look like this.



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3


sudo apt-get update


sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

Should also make sure you actually upgrade all the GNOME stuff:


sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

The reboot and log in to GNOME.
