Yes, gnome3 is not for end users (my oppinion). I updated my noteboot
(arch linux) and 
it changed to gnome3. all applications stopped, as it cannot find the X
server feature in the old sis671 chipset,
so it boots into "compatible" mode, this mode the gnome panel is very
bad, there is no way to put
icons on the desktop, the gnome shell does not work.   So my notebook is
useless...

My solution, was to reinstall for the good and old gnome 2.32 that I
saved  before doom's day (may 1, 2011). 
Sometimes I think you, from gnome, forget about the end users.....
Just look at Microsoft... even they tried Vista, that claimed to be
superior, no one liked it... they than fall 
back to the basics of XP, and launched W7, that is more like a XP than
the BAD vista... 

OK, I agree with you, that we must invent more sofisticated desktop,
that produces wonderful human interfaces
and so on... BUT you cannot force the users to switch to a new interface
without give them a change to came back...

Microsoft learned the lesson, users want something that works (see the
simplicity of the google interface...), and gnome 2.32, for sure,
works...  Apple learned also, as the GUI does not change, or change
slooooowly...  With gnome3, the user is completely lost,  for a person
like me, (or you, tech person) a new interface is "wonderfull"  but for
an end user that wants to write documents, browse internet, chat, and
watch some movies, or listen to music, an "wonderful"  upgrade is a
disaster...

Cornelia Pfeffer, probably is an end user... he/she had a working
computer  and now have an "brick". 
Note that the computer not even switch off.  (I have the same problem
here, it only suspends,
and when come back, the screen is black, so I had to disconnect the
battery, and boot again). 

Do you guys from Gnome call that an "evolution"???  may be.. when it
reaches the trust state we had in 2.32...

I spend  a week downloading the 2.32 gnome, and 2 more days installing
it only to
have my notebook usable again.
