I tried gnome-shell but didn't quite like it. After removing gnome-shell, I still have them in login menu. However, upon logging in with any gnome option, I get to the usual Unity desktop.
I had purged gnome-shell using apt-get, but seems like some component is still remaining.
How do I remove gnome login options from lightdm login screen?
When I come to the ubuntu 12.04 lightdm login screen, I get several options for logging into desktop environments.
There is Unity and gnome and gnome-classic etc...
When I select unity, it logs me into Unity and
When I select gnome, it logs me into UNITY O_o
I also notice that even after selecting the gnome3 session , the icon on the login box is the same as the unity icon.
I am trying to set up GNOME Classic (on Ubuntu 12.04.1) to be my default desktop, I can install it with out issue and I know how to change to it at the login screen.
The problem I have is when I reboot, the login screen defaults back to Unity for login, is there away to set GNOME Classic to be the default (without removing unity)?
I have installed and configuring as follows but it always default
Hi all!
I'd like to remove unity, gnome and all that, and just keep xfce4 (already installed).
Even better, it'd be wonderful to have my computer boot into a login shell and let me run startx if and when I want a graphical session.
Now I tried with some things along the lines of "apt-get remove unity ubuntu-desktop gnome-session" but it turns out it's too naive a method.
Hi All
Login Screen still shows after login.Upgraded from 12.10 32Bit to 13.04 32Bit.I am able to use Unity & and other applications, but the login screen won't go away. I tried to change the wallpaper.Previously on 12.10, I had muliple Desktop environments, such as GnomeFallack, Gnome, KDE, XMBC Installed.
A while back I decided to try the Gnome Shell desktop environment as I've always been a fan of the foundation and the desktop environment. I decided that I'd become used to Unity and that I wouldn't really log into a GNOME session often, so I uninstalled it via the command line... which, frankly, was stupid.
after upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10 i cant login to the gnome desktop - only to unity of gnome without the graphical enhancement.
i can see the Gnome in the login screen option but when i press it nothing happens.
I have an issue with a PC where all the desktops (Gnome Shell, Classic, Unity (2d,3d)) have all failed to start. The usual GUI login screen functions and shows all choices, but after login none of the desktops will start, and each returns to login screen.
Before this appeared the machine was unable to run in Unity 3d, so Unity 2d was used mostly.
I am using Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64 with a Cinnamon desktop.
Today, out of the sudden, I was kicked from desktop to login screen. I entered my password and noticed that my window decorations disappeared. I ran:
sudo aptitude reinstall cinnamon
After that I wasn't even able to login (black screen and back to login screen).
