Do you know if you have KDM or GDM? If GDM, you get to pick a desktop
*after* you pick a username - there's a drop-down selector below the
password entry box.

Don't know anything about this.

Not quite sure what's going on there; alternatives is a mechanism for
allowing multiple providers for a given file or set of files, basically.
update-alternatives is the tool to specify which one should be used, and
some packages use it in scripts, obviously. I'm not sure why it wouldn't
be present when they're trying to run it; badly stated  deps in the
packages or some kind of issue with usrmove maybe. I _doubt_ the
consequences would be critical, but it's hard to be sure.

What does 'getenforce' say now?
