I am using the same driver as you but a different version (mine is one
newer) and I don't have the sna use flag. I might not have access to
the machine an longer today, but will try.
thanks,

I forgot to say that with the remerged clutter and cogl, gdm still
crashes.
I just rebuilt the driver downgraded to 2.15.0-r1. I specified sna in
package.use but still it was merged without it.
This configuration still has gdm crashing

to rule out the video-stack, I'd try gnome in fallback-mode. If it works,
chances are your problem is video-related. If it still crashes, the problem is
elsewhere.
Is there something in dmesg related to the gnome-shell segfaults?

Up to you; slot conflicts are outside my area of knowledge for Gentoo.
The dmesg error you had suggests to me that the problem may be in
libmozjs. It could also be in a badly-built data structure passed
*into* libmozjs, though, so I was looking for some differential to see
which had the problem.

hmm, for sure your problem is not video-related then.
gjs is the javascript-bindings for gnome...
You could try keeping spidermonkey at 1.8.5 and (re-)build the latest version
of gjs.
google-ing your problem clearly shows: you are not alone. Sadly I was not able
to find a solution for your problem yet as most others use ancient versions and
updates solved it for them.

Are you running the updated git of gnome-overlay? I had troubles with
gnome-settings-daemon until a couple of days.
I believe I have been running the latest overlay. I do an eix-sync
every morning and /etc/eix-sync.conf contains
-C --ignore-default-opts
-C --quiet
gnome
However, I will run
layman --sync-all
Can you try to start GNOME with a clean config (no ~/.config, no
~/.local, no ~/.gconf, no ~/.gnome*).
I tried that this morning; no improvement
Also, in my case, having gnome-shell extensions installed caused me
problems when upgrading.
I do not have the extensions installed.
From the gentoo bug #385525 there is a report that disabling the
gnome-shell USE flag for gdm, permits gdm-3.2.0-r1 to run, but does not
solve the problem with gnome-shell crashing. I can confirm this
behavior and am now running gdm-3.2.0-r1 with gnome-shell disabled.
I just now did
layman --sync-all
emerge --newuse --update --with-bdeps=y world
Only libraw and (of course) portage were merged.
emerge --depclean found nothing redundant
revdep-rebuild still wants to reinstall totem-pl-parser and
gpointing-device-settings. Both fail with bugs that (I believe) are
unrelated.
In a fit of paranoia, I did another reboot at this point.
The results were the same: gdm does NOT crash, but gnome-shell DOES
Perhaps I have bad USE flags (-gnome-shell is a new change the others
are as they have been for quite a while)?

Weird; for me it works so much better than 3.0. Summary: gdm-3.2.0-r1 crashes and when I revert to the 3.0 gdm, I get to the login screen but then gnome-shell crashes. I tried to downgrade to gnome-shell-3.0.2-r1, but that needs libgnome-menu, which is not in portage/layman. The crash of gdm is described in bug #385525. The crash of gnome-shell is described in the following .xsession-errors file (tracker-miner-fs.log and tracker-store.log are empty). any help would be appreciated. allan Are you running the updated git of gnome-overlay? I had troubles with gnome-settings-daemon until a couple of days. I believe I have been running the latest overlay. I do an eix-sync every morning and /etc/eix-sync.conf contains -C --ignore-default-opts -C --quiet gnome However, I will run layman --sync-all Can you try to start GNOME with a clean config (no ~/.config, no ~/.local, no ~/.gconf, no ~/.gnome*). I tried that this morning; no improvement Also, in my case, having gnome-shell extensions installed caused me problems when upgrading. I do not have the extensions installed. From the gentoo bug #385525 there is a report that disabling the gnome-shell USE flag for gdm, permits gdm-3.2.0-r1 to run, but does not solve the problem with gnome-shell crashing. I can confirm this behavior and am now running gdm-3.2.0-r1 with gnome-shell disabled. I just now did layman --sync-all emerge --newuse --update --with-bdeps=y world Only libraw and (of course) portage were merged. When you do layman --sync-all, sometimes the ebuilds are updated, but with the same version. Try to recompile every ebuild in the overlay that you have installed in your system. At least, try to recompile gdm, gnome-shell, and all of its direct dependencies, the packages in COMMON_DEPEND, RDEPEND and DEPEND) in the gnome-shell-3.2.0-r1 ebuild. Minus the use enabled where you don't set the use flag, of course. Also: modify /etc/gdm/custom.conf and in the [debug] key set Enable=true. And modify /usr/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop and replace Exec=gnome-session with Exec=gnome-session --debug. Then a lot more info will be available in ~/.xsession-errors, and we will know more.

I forgot to say that with the remerged clutter and cogl, gdm still
crashes.
I just rebuilt the driver downgraded to 2.15.0-r1. I specified sna in
package.use but still it was merged without it.
This configuration still has gdm crashing

What's the output of lspci | grep VGA?
And just to cover all the bases: what versions do you have of:
xorg-server
xorg-drivers
mesa
If you are using a newer version of xf86-video-intel, then you are
(probably) using unstable X.org. I am not; GNOME 3.2 I had it
unmasked, X.org I got it stable.

No, what I meant to ask was if you have the last snapshot of the overlay.

Also, in my case, having gnome-shell extensions installed caused me problems when upgrading. I don't have the extensions installed. Then is either a config problem, or there was something funny in the snapshot of the overlay that you used. If the clean config doesn't work, update the overlay from git (or use layman -S) and reemerge all the installed ebuilds inside the overlay.
