cannot load gnome-session-cinnamon

[marcoE]

Hello people.

I'm using linux mint 15 cinnamon. I love the cinnamon, but I've just wanted to try gnome3 shell and I've installed by PPA.

However after reboot I was not able to login to cinnamon with mdm session. Xsession brokes with the message:

cannot find gnome-session-cinnamon.

I installed gdm, and the same problem stands.

I'm trying to resintall cinnamon withou sucess.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install --reinstall cinnamon

Any ideas to get my cinnamon working?

I've got a problem too with an update [url]http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=208&t=148779[/url]

Try to uninstall and reinstall cinnamon and tell us what you see...

Remove it is not the solution.

But with apptitude I was able to downgrade some libs of gnome 3 and I've installed cinnamon.

However, after login cinnamon crashes when I open the menu or another window.
