FWIW whenever I boot Kali and get stuck with Gnome 3 (at least that's what I think that abomination is), I can't do much of anything. It's actively worse than Win 10 / Mac OSX, though part of it might be the live CD part of it. In day to day I have converted many people to XFCE4 which seems far more sane, in _my_ experience.James Pulver CLASSE Computer Group Cornell University On 10/13/2016 04:51 AM, David Sommerseth wrote:On 13/10/16 03:21, Nico Kadel-Garcia wrote:On Wed, Oct 12, 2016 at 1:08 PM, MAH Maccallum <[email protected]> wrote:Thanks, Andrew. I will check those possibilities. A problem with the graphics drivers seems likely in that I get the same result with my default (test) user as with my own personal login. However, logging in as root gives a perfectly normal Gnome screen.So it may be that somehow a permission got changed. What's odd is that this all happened in the course of moving the cursor around and the abrt error message suggests it was moving the cursor across the clock that caused the problem.Gnome is *not the friend of getting work done*. Seriously. It's become so driven that it interferes with actual work.That's your experience. My experience with GNOME 3 on SL7.2 is that is vastly have improved workflow. A lot of it comes through very handy keyboard shortcuts and a handful of GNOME Shell extensions. In fact I can't imagine any sane reason to move back to GNOME 2 or anything else - it just feels so clumsy and horrid to work with for me. Everything just runs very smoothly and fine on my ThinkPad T450s. But this is /my/ experience. -- kind regards, David Sommerseth - If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said "faster horses." -Henry Ford
