> Please backport the fixes to Oneiric. the fix needs to be tested and confirmed to work on precise first, here unity is started instead of compiz when selecting GNOME classic but the session log indicates it takes the right "default" profile so like something tweaked on my installed, still confirmation on whether it works from other would be useful

Most of these users believe they are running the gnome classic session and that compiz failed to start. The fact is that notify-osd is causing the gnome-classic session to fail entirely, and the gnome-fallback session is loaded instead (which of course does not load compiz). The gnome-classic session works fine after removing notify-osd from the RequiredProviders line of the file /usr/share /gnome-session/sessions/gnome-classic.session. It should be noted that notify-osd still starts after removing it from the RequiredProviders, and seems to still be working. So most likely it is just an error in communication between notify-osd and the gnome session (inverted boolean return value perhaps?).
