I’ve used the official GS38 repo. But after reboot I get this

If I disable the repo and do
zypper dup
it falls back to gnome 3.6 (naturally) and it works.
I could not find any post on the web about such upgrades going bad, but I guess there is a first time for everything
This is what I use to upgrade
zypper ar -f obs://GNOME:STABLE:3.8/openSUSE_12.3 GS38
zypper dup --from GS38
I made sure all packages and repos were up to date before hand
Opensuse 12.3 GNOME (fresh install)
Here is some more info
