Hi, A week ago, I installed MATE desktop environment on my Ubuntu 14.04.03 LTS and removed unity and ubuntu-desktop. I also wanted to install Gnome DE and so began my adventure. Things I did: sudo apt-get install gnome-shell sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop
Logging into GNOME just gave me a stuck screen with no mouse or keyboard working. Some more research led me to completely removing ubuntu-gnome-desktop and gnome-shell, and adding gnome3 staging and gnome3 repo and performing a dist-upgrade. Again, I got the same result. I added Ricotz (Don't remember the name) testing repo and dist-upgrading again. I was greeted with the same stuck screen which came up with a popup message to upgrade to 15.04 with mouse, keyboard etc working to select the options in the popup. I checked and saw that I did not have mutter. Insatlled mutter and I am still stuck on the same popup message which has a nicer look, possibly due to mutter. I really want to test GNOME but just cannot get it running on my machine. Any help would be appreciated. I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I thought I should give it a try. Looking forward to a positive reply Thanks Akshit
