I do... using archlinux the repo is gnome2, just add .... [gnome2] SigLevel = Optional TrustAll Server = http://gnome2:81/$arch before the [core] repo in a new installed archlinux (with only the base and xorg) installed than, install gnome2 with the command pacman -Sy gnome2 > > > I'm not volunteering for the job; I got my own time problems. - I > could be manipulated into it, but I'm sure there are others better > qualified and with more time. > > > It would not be ideal in my opinion; I would rather see the effort > spent on 3x. I would let the "gurus" deal with gnome3, I will stay with gnome2, as I primary use FreeBSD, that is still in the gnome 2.32 alive and well... > > > The Kernel does something similar with Greg KH. > > > It would appear that GNOME could support this as long as the > maintainers realized what they are signing up for. > > > Again, I don't think it's ideal.

I do not expect to be better of worse than gnome2, it is just a matter of choice as my servers (and I have a lot...) uses gnome2, why the laptops should use another Destkop Environmet (DE)????? users access the FreeBSD servers using vnc, and logs in using gdm 2.18.. but windows is too unstable to work with, so I needed an more stable operating system for laptops, so I choose Linux, Now they access their network drive using webdav and the same interface, with the same look and feel. the same laptop must be used by several persons (not at the same time) but each account protectaed from the other, for example, the notebook belongs to the company, so when person A needs to travel with it and make a presentation, answer emails, it must not interfere with person B that will use the same laptop next week in another trip to make another presentation.
