This bug was fixed in the package gnome-session - 3.2.1-0ubuntu4
---------------
gnome-session (3.2.1-0ubuntu4) precise; urgency=low
* Backport some of the Debian changes
* debian/control.in:
- drop the Recommends on gnome-power-manager, the code gnome-session uses
has moved to gnome-settings-daemon
- drop the build-depends on librsvg2-dev
- Recommends "unity | unity-2d | gnome-shell" rather than Depends on it,
some users want to use gnome-session without those (lp: #854058).
* debian/patches/50_ubuntu_sessions.patch:
- restore the "no notifications in fallback sessions" for Ubuntu,
the required components need an autostart .desktop where notify-osd
doesn't have one, let them be dbus activated rather (lp: #885939)
[ Michael Biebl ]
* Remove Depends on policykit-1-gnome from gnome-session as gnome-shell
provides its own integrated PolicyKit authentication agent.
* Remove notification-daemon from gnome-session Recommends as gnome-shell
has an integrated notification system.
* Make notification-daemon a Depends of the gnome-session-fallback and
remove debian/patches/13_no_fallback_notification.patch so the session
manager starts notification-daemon in the fallback case.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.2. No further changes.

Bug description:
I have noticed several other users that are having this issue as well
in in Ubuntu 11.10. Most of these users believe they are running the
gnome classic session and that compiz failed to start. The fact is
that notify-osd is causing the gnome-classic session to fail entirely,
and the gnome-fallback session is loaded instead (which of course does
not load compiz). The gnome-classic session works fine after removing
notify-osd from the RequiredProviders line of the file /usr/share
/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-classic.session. It should be noted
that notify-osd still starts after removing it from the
RequiredProviders, and seems to still be working. So most likely it
is just an error in communication between notify-osd and the gnome
session (inverted boolean return value perhaps?).
