I like Gnome. I want to come back to Ubuntu
If I install gnome, will I get gnome 3.10? If it will install Gnome 3.10 then tell me. So I can switch to Ubuntu 13.10 and intall Gnome 3.10.

I'm using Gnome in 13.10. I just did an apt-get upgrade to ensure it was the latest version. The version check produced:

~$ gnome-shell --version
GNOME Shell 3.8.4

The easy way is to install Ubuntu Gnome, but if you really want the hard way, here it is:

WARNING: THIS WILL BREAK UNITY!

and lightDM doesn't work

sudo apt-get install gdm
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-next
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

and for some apps

sudo apt-get install gnome-documents gnome-contacts epiphany-browser gnome-boxes gnome-shell-extensions gnome-tweak-tool bijiben gnome-clocks

and remove the weird scrollbar

sudo apt-get remove overlay-scrollbar

then reboot.

  • It didn't worked. I have to install Ubuntu again because it don't show anything when I did every command listed above. There was some kind of low graphics error after reboot. – Faisal Aslam Nov 01 '13 at 08:39
  • If you get low graphics error, just google it. Generally it can be solved by doing 'sudo apt-get install gdm' – Novine Nov 01 '13 at 11:03

  • If you really must re install, remember to et your files out using a live USB, then if you want GNOME, I suggest Ubuntu GNOME, where all the work is done for you. – Novine Nov 01 '13 at 11:05
