I tried it and it just doesn't work for me. Now I need to take 3 steps for basic tasks that needed 2 step before. When I want to start an application I need to go to the activities , click on programs and select the program I want to launch (3 clicks). Or remember the name of each program I have installed and search for it. With Gnome2 I go I look up my application via the Gnome menu (2 clicks). Furthermore: * Multitasking has become more difficult: -I can't launch a program and do something else at the same time -I can't get an quick overview of my running programs while doing something else * I find the pop-ups at the bottom distracting * Because the panel is fixed to the top position Citrix ICA client won't work anymore I have used Gnome for years but Gnome 3 has me searching for alternatives. Solutions: 1) Replace the Activities in the top left corner with a regular Gnome menu. 2) Show running programs in the panel _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
