If i install gnome3 i can't use it.
As one example, among many, the keyboard is kinda broken (i can use it, but it is so slow that i can also say: "i can't use it").
I assumed gnome3 is simply utter **** and gave up on it.
Now i looked at cinnamon, and got the same problems.
I have come to think that it might be some hidden settings of the user.
But which ones might be it?
I for one would assume .config and .gtk and .gnome2 (existent?).
Oh, and yes: adduser newuserwithcoolname
or root can use them fine (gnome3, cinnamon, etc).
Any ideas?

a new user works fine?

Yes.
root too.
Oh: and it is on two computers: the main PC and the laptop.

.gconf possibly too
possibly something in .local as well
maybe start renaming them - logout/login - see how it works?
or copy them to a new user until something fawks up

A wee bit of that i probably tried. It didn't get anywhere.
I was hoping someone could say: Yes, there is such a problem in general.
Or: No, that must be you and it is xyz.
Let me try again these days. In the way you described.
