DetailsDescription:
Hello, I'm encountering a bug with Cinnamon. I'm unable to start it. I'm quite a newbie with desktop environments but I try to start it through GDM and from the command line but it both fails. My package are all up to date. For now, waiting this to be fixed, I've downgraded all of my packages thanks to ARM. I don't know how I can help. I've read that there are incompatibilities with Gnome 3.8 but they have been fixed. Apparently a patch should be apply to this package (https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/pull/1888#issuecomment-17004319) but thanks to some topics on the forum, it's apparently applied on it but I'm still encountering issues to start Cinnamon. When I try to start it, I get a screen with "Oh, no! Something gone wrong!". Here are some logs I have thanks to journalctl: avril 25 14:31:10 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... avril 25 14:31:11 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: localuser:robin being added to access control list avril 25 14:31:11 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: /etc/gdm/Xsession: Setup done, will execute: /usr/bin/ssh-agent -- gnome-session avril 25 14:31:12 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: (gnome-settings-daemon:538): Gvc-WARNING **: Failed to connect context: OK avril 25 14:31:19 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: Failed to play sound: File or data not found avril 25 14:31:19 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: JS LOG: GNOME Shell started at Thu Apr 25 2013 14:31:19 GMT+0200 (CEST) avril 25 14:31:19 nevada gnome-session[503]: Entering running state avril 25 14:31:19 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: Avertissement du gestionnaire de fenêtres : Log level 16: Could not initialize NMClient /org/freedesk avril 25 14:31:19 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: Avertissement du gestionnaire de fenêtres : Log level 16: fetch_connections_done: error fetching conn avril 25 14:31:20 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** (nm-applet:660): WARNING **: Could not initialize NMClient /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: Unit d avril 25 14:31:20 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** Message: applet now removed from the notification area avril 25 14:31:20 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** (nm-applet:660): WARNING **: fetch_connections_done: error fetching connections: (32) Unit dbus-or avril 25 14:31:20 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** (nm-applet:660): WARNING **: Failed to register as an agent: (32) Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.Networ avril 25 14:31:20 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** Message: applet now embedded in the notification area avril 25 14:31:20 nevada goa[654]: goa-daemon version 3.8.1 starting [main.c:113, main()] avril 25 14:31:24 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** (nemo:656): WARNING **: Can not calculate _NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOPS avril 25 14:31:24 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** (nemo:656): WARNING **: Can not calculate _NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOPS avril 25 14:31:24 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** (nemo:656): WARNING **: Can not get _NET_WORKAREA avril 25 14:31:24 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: ** (nemo:656): WARNING **: Can not determine workarea, guessing at layout avril 25 14:31:51 nevada /etc/gdm/Xsession[503]: [756:783:0425/143151:ERROR:object_proxy.cc(624)] Failed to get name owner.

This task depends upon
After I had update, I was unable to start GDM. I don't know why. Here the last lines of my ~/.xsession-errors https://gist.github.com/robin850/6ab3a265a9efec650092. I try to start cinnamon via startx.
Sorry for the delay, Have a nice day.
~ % cat .xinitrc
exec gnome-session-cinnamon
~ %
I can start Cinnamon from GDM as usual, but just after that I can see my desktop for less than a second, the desktop blinks and then I have the "Oh, no! Something gone wrong!".
Gnome session have no problem to start and works very well.
The "Oh, no! Something gone wrong!" appears also on "Gnome Classic" and "Gnome Flashback" sessions, not immediatly but after some minutes.
EDIT:
I've found how to resolve my problem, seems related to this bug : https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/1945
So I basicly do a "gsettings set org.cinnamon.overrides workspaces-only-on-primary false" and my Cinnamon session is back working !
Hoping that it might help
# startx&>startx-output.log
and post the startx-output.log file here.
I'm quite confused, GDM is unable to start (it was still the case before) but with your command, Cinnamon starts. \o/ Anyway, here's the content of the startx-output.log file https://gist.github.com/robin850/d3cb38045d0e98b4231c.
Thanks for the update Xzorg6, I will have a look if the issue comes back. :)
Have a nice day.
