Comment 11 for bug 982051

I had this problem recently. I believe it had to do with changing the Panel display setting to Classic or Flilpped or something different from the default.

I was getting the same error as above: "Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. Please log out and try again."

I was able to log into the Gnome session once, and I tried "gsettings reset-recursively org.cinnamon" to no avail. But then I wasn't able to login to the Gnome session either.

I was able to login again to both sessions after removing the dbus folder from ~/.config/
