I've migrated recently to the new Debian stable, by installing the new system but saving all my data in the /home partition. I do this because I don't want the data to be lost between installations, besides, it also saves the configuration of all my applications like Icewaesel bookmarks, Icedove mail accounts. However, I think my old configuration is breaking some features of Gnome3.

For example, it seems like if Empathy weren't integrated with Gnome3 at all. I can't set my status with the user menu and notifications aren't showed when anyone talks to me.

I've tried to remove some folders like .gnome, .gnome2, .conf... to reset the configuration to defaults, but it didn't work. Any idea about what's the problem?

  • Gnome 3 ignores gconf, and the .conf folder is used by individual programs to store their own config. The problem is probably that the new Empathy and Gnome 3 just don't behave the way you want. – Wutaz Jun 18 '13 at 15:06
  • Oh, Thanks! I didn't know that! but I've used Gnome 3 in the laptop before and just want the PC to behave the same way, that is, notifying me when somebody talks to me. – jlledom Jun 19 '13 at 07:21
