I meant, on average, a guy working for Red Hat would know a whole lot
more about Gnome than myself, who's got zero knowledge.
Anyhow, it's not the shell per se that's the problem. It's the
overview mode - so bloody annoying with its constant expose in/out
animations, lack of desktop visibility etc. I know - it looks great
on YouTube. Not so great when you have use it for work all day.
Ah, never mind - just whinging...
Bojan,
Install xfce. You'll be happy w/that.
