Hello ubuntuforums, I recently installed ubuntu 12.04 on my desktop, I started out with ubuntu 10.04 so gnome classic was the desktop environment of my choice, I dislike unity and gnome 3 isn't my cup of tea so to say.
After I installed a package called gnome-panel to enable gnome classic I went on to try to get my eyefinity setup to work, without success.

Hi,
I installed gnome-shell in 12.10 to see if I liked it better than unity, and I didn't, so I purged it. This didn't deal with 'gnome classic' and 'gnome classic (no effects)', however, which remain on my login window.
How do I remove them without also removing delicate parts of my system?
Thanks.
I previously had gnome-shell installed, but removed it when I thought I'd stick with Unity. Now I've decided to give it another shot using some extensions, however I don't have the option for it when I log out and click the ubuntu logo to change DE. I have tried restarting to make sure it's nothing stupid like that.
I install ubuntu 12.04 and update all packages and add gnome repository and install gnome-shell, but when i logout and wnat to select the gnome desktop in login screen, i just have gnome classic and gnome classc(no effects) options to select and there is no gnome.
what is the problem?
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
