--- Comment #8 from Ting-Wei Lan <lantw44@gmail.com> ---
(In reply to jetmomo from comment #7)
gnome-session-failed screen, or 'Something has gone wrong' screen, is launc=
hed
by gnome-session when a required app fails to start or crashes too quickly,=
 so
we should check messages printed by gnome-session.

This line should be related:
gnome-session[1712]: WARNING: Application 'gnome-settings-daemon.desktop'
failed to register before timeout

It seems the problem is caused by gnome-settings-daemon.

You said you could see gnome-shell, so the problem was not caused by
gnome-shell. Both gnome-shell and gnome-settings-daemon are required apps in
gnome-session, so either of them crashes can cause the gnome-session-failed
screen to be showed.

I don't have a specific command to debug this kind of issue. System call
tracers like truss and ktrace may help you figure out the cause of the prob=
lem,
but sometimes source code debugging may be required ...
