Re: [LUG] Gnome3 and Ub 11.10

It's good news that it's now possible to have the latest Ub without Unity, but I find 11.04 much faster generally. Do users of Ub 11.10 not find it significantly slower than 11.04?

Just wanted to say how much I love gnome3.

I finally caved-in and installed Ubuntu 11.10 as they'd relented from the ridiculous 'Unity' debacle to allow people to have gnome-shell as an option, natively installed and Unity free.

Really loving it and the one-click extensions are pretty good fun too!

I may actually consider using Ubuntu again, provided the upcoming LTS retains the gnome-shell (Unity free) default...

Just my 2p after giving Unity and Ubuntu such a slagging over the last 18 months.

I'm on Ubuntu with Gnome 3 because Unity was throwing a strop with my nVidia drivers.

I'm using Gnome 3 Shell with Unity 2D Panel.

I've seen a few Unity & nVidia driver updates come through recently so may well give Unity a try again with 12.04 - I like Unity
