I generated these files BEFORE enabling "i915" DRM module or "kernel mode* setting (KMS)". I have now enabled "i915" DRM module or "kernel mode* setting (KMS)" after checking "Xorg Intel Driver" instructions page to see which kernel options should be enabled but Im still not be able to use gnome shell at all. When i use runlevel 3 and do startx it shows me the gnome background image and mouse cursor then after a long time it says Oops! Something has gone wrong!. and then goes back into the fallback gnome interface. I will post the new logs again when I get back home in the evening. Please tell me what could be wrong I have even installed the intel video drivers .2.19 version (this improves my gnome resolution but gnome shell still doesnt show) -- James Earnest Pinto
