LAMBDA TENSORBOOK - will not get through boot sequence

Raynier,
Hi! I am just getting back to deeptalk.

This is a gnome type message, and the solutions I found were
for reinstall of gnome, etc. That did not work.

What did work in this case was:
And another mentions cleaning up your gnome configs:
$ cd ~
$ mkdir .gnome-config-bak
$ mv .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity .cache
.dbus .dmrc .mission-control .thumbnails .config/dconf/user
.compiz* .gnome-config-bak/
$ rm -f .config/dconf/user
