New issue 514 by t... at takeontom.com: Bluetile is not launched correctly  
when using the "GNOME + Bluetile" lightdm option in Ubuntu 12.10 beta
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=514

Note: have also created a launchpad bug for this:  
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluetile/+bug/1047894

On a fresh 12.10 beta install:

$ sudo apt-get install bluetile
reboot
select "GNOME + Bluetile" in lightdm
login

The system goes into an odd state.

It only displays the default ubuntu background image. No icons or menus.

Some Gnome keyboard shortcuts work, e.g. Ctrl+Alt+t to launch a terminal.

When the terminal is launched, it has no window chrome. Just the window  
contents and menu bar.

 From the launched terminal:

$ bluetile

Bluetile now launches fully and offers full functionality.
