bootgdmgnome

I just installed gnome by typing sudo apt-get install gnome-shell, and used gdm as login shell and my PC can't boot. It stayed in purple screen with Ubuntu logo! What can I do?

Best Answer

After installing Gnome, try to purge the default settings using this command : 

sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-default-settings

If the problem persists, remove the unwanted packages from Ubuntu using the below command and check:

sudo apt-get autoremove
