Uninstalling Gnome 3.10
#To use the tool we’ll need to go back to the terminal and enter the following, taking care to look out for any prompts that may #appear during the downgrade process.
sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-next
#If you also added the optional extra PPAs you will also need to purge those as well:
sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging
sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
#Once completed you should be left with the stock GNOME 3.8 desktop. If you don’t want to keep GNOME Shell around at all you can #proceed to remove it:
sudo apt-get remove gnome-shell ubuntu-gnome-desktop
#Finally, manually remove any remaining applications that persist after downgrade (e.g., Epiphany and GNOME Documents), then #reboot.
