Do you have any abrt crash reports for gnome-shell?
Nothing in abrt, no. It doesn't seem to be an actual SEGV-style crash that would bring abrt into the picture. If I start in the fallback mode, then do "gnome-shell --replace" by hand, I get something similar:
JS ERROR: !!! Exception was: TypeError: this._accountManager.get_factory is not a function JS ERROR: !!! lineNumber = '124' JS ERROR: !!! fileName = '"/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/telepathyClient.js"' JS ERROR: !!! stack = '"()@/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/telepathyClient.js:124 Client()@/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/telepathyClient.js:77 _createUserSession()@/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/main.js:84 start()@/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/main.js:223 @<main>:1 "' JS ERROR: !!! message = '"this._accountManager.get_factory is not a function"' Window manager warning: Log level 32: Execution of main.js threw exception: TypeError: this._accountManager.get_factory is not a function gnome-shell-calendar-server[2444]: Got HUP on stdin - exiting
FWIW, that telepathyClient.js file actually belongs to gnome-shell; I'm not sure that telepathy itself has much to do with it.
