I'm very reluctant to upgrade to gnome3, I have it on one box, and don't like it. I want workspaces related to different tasks, like programming, web browsing, watching a video, listening to music, etc. That could involve e.g. having terminals, etc running on each workspace. Does this hinder several instances of a terminal, web browser, etc, to be launched? > The Mint extensions for GNOME Shell look interesting, although I’m not > into nostalgic retrofeatures. Feel free to package them, people on > #debian-gnome can give you advice on this matter. Look like there is a gnome-session-fallback similar to gnome 2 available. Can it be installed safely, instead of gnome-session? Does it use the features of gnome-shell?
