Re: [orca-list] Facing problem while activating GNOME desktop

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

Well, there's an easy way and a hard way.  Easy way is to do it from  the
login prompt.  Assuming your lighdm login prompt talks like it should, tab
past the password field and hit the button for the desktop selection.  Pick
Gnome and you're done.

The hard way is, as you would imagine, much more complex.  Do this only if
your Lightdm doesn't talk.  You need to change your default xsession to
Gnome in the lightdm config file in what I think is the /var/lib/users
directory if memory serves me.  I've posted on this in the past.  You can
probably find my postings with a search in the orca-list archives.  It's
been a while since I used Gnome in Ubuntu so I'm a bit fuzzy on the details,
sorry.  They did such a bang up job on the accessibility for Unity 2d that I
just use that instead.

Subject: [orca-list] Facing problem while activating GNOME desktop

Hello all,
I have installed Ubuntu server 12.4.2 LTS, by default the Unity desktop is
activated. But, I want to switch to Gnome desktop. For that, I had used
several commands:
Sudo apt-get update
Sudo apt-get install gnome
Sudo atp-get upgrade
After firing all the commands, I am unable to see the expected result.
