So, this morning GNOME3 has left me stranded, with a useless desktop. I have to fail over into a barely working XFCE install, and I'm sending this from Alpine.
First - can someone *SHOOT* that dorking cartoony "Ooops! something has gone wrong." crap that pops up when GNOME3 fails. It isn't helpful; and logging out and trying again, of course, is *never* going to actually work [if nothing else changes].
Second - where is a good second place to look for errors, besides .xsession-errors. There is nothing intersting there. It complains about not being able to contact gconf, but looking back it appears it always claims that. Does GNOME3 or its components dump information anywhere else?
.xsession-errors is actually the right place... bare in mind though that after the next login to xfce, you want to look at .xsession-errors.old Maybe you can post your file somewhere so we can have a deep look at it?
