with pre 4alpha3 from traditional installer DVD (i586), just after logging in, I get,just after I saw mageiawelcome started: "Oh no! Something has gone wrong. etc." switching to a console, loging in as root and doing startx -- :1 doesn't work I'll attach journalctl -a "okt 01 19:31:27 localhost gnome-session[3138]: Unrecoverable failure in required component gnome-shell.desktop" in that log is, I think, when I saw the "Oh no, something has gone wrong..."

I disabled translucency hoping that would help, but then it already goes wrong before reaching the login screen. After re-enabling it the login screen is reached again. What is the difference between "GNOME" and "Gnome" in the DE list in the login-password screen?
This is the same as I encountered in the live iso images previously https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10914#c7

When I tried to start the Gnome 3 (Mageia 4, beta 1), an error message appeared: Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system canât recover. Please log out and try again. [Log out] This error occurred after the installation of the package "task-gnome-minimal-3.10.1-2.mga4.noarch" After I install package "task-gnome-3.10.1-2.mga4.noarch", with the full instalation of the Gnome 3, this error did not appear anymore and the Gnome 3 opened without problem.

Is this still valid in an updated Mageia 4 and Mageia 5 RC?

I have a personal workaround for this with the intel 915 driver for the 82855GME graphic controller: in my laptop i configured the vesa generic driver, and forced the screen resolution and gnome starts, I can login with a full desktop and runs smoothly May be the intel driver is not capable to run the composite extension....
