Hi Camaleón,
Thanks you for the input.
I just solved the problem last night after some research.
This looks like a common problem for a lot of users when updating from
gnome2 to gnome3. The Xorg.log looks fine. Xsession-errors indicated
some GTK color space problems. I removed all configuration files under
~/. Then gnome-shell started successfully.
Regards,
Mond
