F15 -gnome3 login failure

[Gregory P. Ennis]

List,

I have a new install of F15 on a Dell 8250 with 1.2 g of memory.  I did
the install from the 386 iso and everything went well.  When trying to
login to a user account using gnome I get a graphic message telling me :
"On no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system
can't recover.  Please log out and try again.

Trying to login again did not help.  I did a yum update, but there was
no change after the update.

Fortunately, I also installed KDE and was able to login with the use of
KDE; I created a new user account, but was unable to login with that new
user account as well.

Any ideas ?
