Public bug reported:
I installed Sugar, and the session is properly listed as an option from
GDM, but as soon as I select that session with the combo box GDM
immediately crashes. This does not happen for any other sessions and
occurs all the time for me.
I poked through the system log and the following stood out:
Mar 19 17:30:45 dylan-netbook gdm-session-worker[1439]: GLib-GObject-CRITICAL:
g_value_get_boolean: assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_BOOLEAN (value)' failed
Mar 19 17:30:49 dylan-netbook gdm-simple-slave[933]: CRITICAL: Cannot read
specified session file: sugar.desktop
Mar 19 17:30:49 dylan-netbook gdm-binary[767]: WARNING: GdmDisplay: display

Mar 19 17:30:49 dylan-netbook gdm-simple-greeter[1477]: WARNING: error opening
connection: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/gdm-greeter-CveyZvQE: Connection

The fact that GDM is crashing is being filed as a separate bug.
Here is % cat /usr/share/xsessions/sugar.desktop
