I want to run gnome-shell on my PC. I have Ubuntu and gnome-shell is installed from ppa.

When I run:

gnome-shell --replace

the session fails - I am on the GDM login screen and can't get any error messages.

If I use the command:

gnome-shell --verbose --replace > gnomeshell.log

gives me an empty file.

What can I do?
