Bug Description
Linux Mint 12 RC 32bit dvd edition.
3 partitions:
1/Home
2/Linux Mint 12 RC (before Linux Mint 11)
3/Swap
After install, the default environment was gnome-shell.
When gnome-shell open the only thing charge was desktop icons, and I only can do Ctrl+Alt+Supr to logout and load gnome classic.
I opened a terminal and using gnome-shell --replace appeared this:
gnome-shell --replace

I saw similar errors. If you install Empathy, pulling in all of its Telepathy requirements, I think you’ll find that the Telepathy-related messages go away. Whether that’s a good thing or not I don’t know (I don’t use/want Telepathy), but I think it’s fair to conclude that the error messages are due to the GNOME Shell expecting Telepathy to be present, and reacting less than gracefully when the dependency is unmet, as in Mint’s default, Telepathy-less install.
I’m still left with the assertion failure:
Window manager warning: Log level 8: shell_tray_ manager_ manage_ stage: assertion `manager- >priv-> stage == NULL' failed
