It has gnome-shell package and I have installed it too and now I get te
select in lightdm/gdm (GNOME, GNOME Classic,Xfce etc.) . Choosing GNOME
Classic lands me to usual menu based gnome and choosing GNOME gives this
message:
"can not launch gnome"
I do not know what is wrong but here is something that might seem
interesting, is your "gnome.desktop" file similar ?
arnuld@gnu:/usr/share/xsessions$ ls
gnome-classic.desktop gnome.desktop gnome-fallback.desktop
ubuntu-2d.desktop ubuntu.desktop xfce.desktop
