hello CentOS7 users,
I have an up-to-date Scientific Linux 7 (_very_ similar to CentOS7).
The problem is that if one user (we have central homes) logs into any machine, we only see a desktop with icons, but no window decorations or top/bottom bars ("panels") (for both gnome-classic and gnome3).
I can fix the window decorations by running "metacity --replace", but the other problem remains.
I tried to remove .gnome, .gnome2, .gconf, .metacity, .cache, .dbus, .dmrc.
I noticed that when starting "gnome-shell --replace" from a terminal, I get "Failed to migrate monitor configuration for ... Empty Configuration", and when running gnome-control-center, the option "Displays" shows "Could not get screen information" and the console shows: 'Name "org.gnome.Mutter.DisplayConfig" does not exist'.
This happens both when logging in physically and when logging in virtually using VNC.
How can I fix this? Do I need to reset more of GNOME's config?
Many Thanks and Best Regards! Felix
