No, I meant the old, gnome-panel/metacity based GNOME3 fallback https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeFlashback Not sure, how much love this still get's today and if it's worth caring for it. I just mentioned, because notfication-daemon (which was traditionally started in that fallback/flashback session) has OnlyShowIn=LXDE;OPENBOX;GNOME; AutostartCondition=GNOME3 unless-session gnome nm-connection-editor We don't split of nm-connection-editor (yet) in Debian.
