Hi
After switching to LightDM I can no longer login to Gnome. I get an “Oh no something went wrong” error with an icon and a logout button which takes me back to the login screen.
I can login to i3wm but not Gnome. I get several options to log in to:
- Gnome
- Gnome
- Gnome Xorg
- i3
- i3 with debug
Everyone of the gnome ones seems to fail.
What I did was:
- uninstall GDM and 3 GDM related packages
- installed lightDM and the settings and greeter
- added a startup script for my nvidia setup
My inxi output (in i3 where I’m typing this):
