description |
I installed ubuntu-gnome-desktop and selected lightdm as the display manager (tried gdm and received only a purple screen). When I click on the ubuntu logo to the right of my login (where I believe I should be able to select the desktop I would like to use) the login name(s) disappear and nothing happens until I hit enter at which point the login names reappear
I have tried logging out and back in again as well as rebooting with the same results. I am currently on a Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition (Ubuntu laptop). I am able to log into Unity with no problem but I would like to use Gnome. |
