[opensuse-gnome] gnome-shell on 11.3 (virtual) failure
Hi List, Attempted to install and start gnome-shell on a 11.3 virtual-machine failed and now reverting to gdm seems impossible since I get a blank (white) screen whenever I try to login into Gnome.

In gdm, after selecting your user, you can choose another session than the "GNOME 3 Preview" one. Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

Hi dear Vincent, Well I used to start gnome shell with "gnome-shell --replace" from within a terminal. Right now I discovered that by cancelling my homedir/.config/gnome-shell and homedir/.config/compiz, then logout gdm as root and login again as user, finally gnome session is up again. Onto 11.2 gnome-shell works flawlessly, on 11.3 (vm) it seems to be broken.

It's really not recommended to run gnome-shell in a VM. It's unlikely to work at this stage. Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

Ok Vincent I understood. Will avoid to use it then. BR, Marco -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
