 No, I said my 'other' new machine - it's an ATI Phenom with a
radeon 600 chip.  I've reverted to building all the Mesa options,
except on the old machine.  But anyway, thanks for your suggestions.

 The solution was on blfs-support : I hadn't been a member of the
video group (never needed that in all the mumble-mumble years I've
been building LFS/BLFS).  Now that I've fixed that, even my old
machine with the R200 (radeon 9200se - an AGP card) can use
gnome-shell.

 This reply sent from a desktop using 3.2 gnome-shell on the i3.

 So, I can at last say that totem does work.  Will tag it later.
