Hey dino99,

I haven't tried lightdm and I don't think I will. Reason being, I would like to debug this issue further if it persists, but not 100% sure how to do so, perhaps one of the devs can advise how I can debug something like this.

Interesting development tonight though, I logged in and after about 20 seconds I switched to a tty, and caught what is attached to this comment. Interesting enough, the fail whale occurred but my desktop was still running (possible, but weird work-around?). After the crash occurred I was also able to enable my backlight on my keyboard with Scroll Lock, which usually won't happen after gnome-shell has crashed at least once.

Definitely something wrong with org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Sharing.desktop.

Regarding your reference to #1669374, that kinda looks like #1559576, which I tried helping Tim Lunn get more information to debug and fix the issue, but I don't think Alberto ever looked at my comment (#45).

Thanks
