Hey all, Ive been thinking a bit about what could cause problems when adopting Gnome-Shell in the distros. The main problem I see is the hardware requirements (I know this has been mentioned before but I mean this in a different way). The hardware that Shell needs requires acceleration and some open source drivers nouveau for instance dont work with Shell. I tested nouveau and Shell started up but the writing on the screen was in blocks and not legible. I know this is a problem with nouveau more than Shell and can be fixed by using the nvidia drivers but on the CD we only ship open source drivers. Is there any way to get Shell working when this kind of situation happens?
Regards Shane Fagan PS: its really starting to come together keep up the good work _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
