OK, that must have been what I experienced. I'll try again and give it time.

I somewhere "chose" lightdm as I thought that was what we had to go with for Nvidia.
But, the fact that I was presented with an option of GDM or lightdm, I should have known.
I thought they dropped GDM with Lucid.

Re: GNOME3 Staging PPA

Though I would throw this out, for public consumption...

These errors/warnings started appearing about a week ago, during incremental (semi-daily) updates & upgrades -- and, the list of packages (at the bottom of the dialog) is growing like a cancer.

Code:

*Gut feeling* tells me, as this "Russian Roulette" game continues, it's eventually going to hit a loaded cylinder, and result in some major breakage.

Re: GNOME3 Staging PPA

hello bro, happy new year to you :)

looks like you get a perl issue; do you use some perl packages from a non genuine archive ?

Happy New Year, Dino!

Official PPA AFAIK...

I'll check it out later, today. I'm on the trot, right now.

Re: GNOME3 Staging PPA

I needed gnome-tweak-tool today to try some other theme because I see a problem in upper right corner of fallback session (fully upgraded to GS PPA) and I've got:

Re: GNOME3 Staging PPA

This staging ppa seems to have solved some issues for me. I now have in the top panel an icon that lets me switch keyboard layouts. And the system freezes that happened when closing utility and applications windows does not happen any more. Good stuff.

regards.

The system freezes on window closings is also fixed here with ppa though the ubuntu version still does so & remains almost worthless
(- having gnome-shell, (gnome-shell --replace), running in a terminal on current workspace prevented/prevents the freezes

Looks like dconf -> org.gnome.desktop.interface should do it...
