This reminds me of bug 18199 and of bug 18506, the latter was confirmed to be still valid for 6sta1

@ Ben

Can you check whether gnome-classic-session got installed, with


   rpm -qa | grep gnome-classic-session

Assigning to all packagers collectively, because the similar bug reports (see the "See Also:" field) were already assigned to Olav, and he never commented.

Duplicate, most likely Gnome Classic loads whichever desktop is next in the queue since it is not a valid entry.
