(d'oh!) I prefer Arch and I notice they still have a snapshot from a few months ago available (3.10 shouldn't have been on it yet), so I can try that (though since gnome-shell does not ship with Arch I suspect I will get the same problem that when I install it, it will update it to 3.10 automatically). Failing that, I'll just grab Fedora or Mageia. > > thanks all, > Amy >
As people pointed out, you may have luck using the arch roll back machine. Start from your 3.4 version, edit /etc/pacman.conf and add a line to point to the day you want to upgrade to, see wiki for this. Then pacman -Syu should do the magic. Ale
