--- Comment #12 from Ting-Wei Lan <lantw44@gmail.com> ---
(In reply to jetmomo from comment #11)
Let's replace gnome-session-failed with another program, so we can keep the
session alive and use gnome-shell without seeing the fullscreen 'Something =
has
gone wrong' message.

When gnome-session-failed shows, switch to another virtual console and find=
 the
PID of gnome-session-failed. Type the following commands to use gdb to repl=
ace
it with cat. I use devel/gdb port because the version included in base cras=
hes
when I type 'attach'.

$ gdb710
(gdb) attach <pid_of_gnome_session_failed>
(gdb) p execl("/bin/cat", "cat", (char*)0)

Keep gdb running and switch back to the graphical virtual console and you c=
an
use gnome-shell without being blocked by the fullscreen message. You can us=
e it
to launch terminal and test
'/usr/local/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon-localeexec &'. gnome-settings-dae=
mon
has to be run inside the graphical session.
