maybe a wrong update (http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/), the gnome-shell was not rebuild (there is only gnome3.4.0 in the iso), can you update an try again ?

and maybe also *attach* your ~.xsession-errors.old

When I try to upgrade from Mageia-2-beta2 to Mageia-2-beta3 it not even install anything, and it just went through user setting screen. On my i586 I upgrade from Mageia-1 to Mageia-2-beta3 thing went better.

Comment 3 Manuel Hiebel 2012-04-19 09:50:55 CEST

upgrade from the beta2 to the beta3 ? if you use the dvd this normal since 
cauldron = alpha1/alpha2/beta1/beta2 + updates = beta3

Source RPM: GNOME 3.4.1-1.mga2 => (none)
Severity: critical => major

After try couple thing I had learn this error: GNOME 3 fail to startx because of graphics issues rather then GNOME it self.  GNOME 3 was working great under Beta2 until upgrade to beta 3.

I finally solve this problem by add RADEON FIRMWARE from Nonfree depository.
