Have also found gnome-shell to be unusable on Nvidia fx5200 on Maverick
on a P4 3GHz machine. It compiled successfully, but is unusably slow
when it loads up, every action happens on screen 40-50 seconds after it
was made if at all.
lspci:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]
(rev a1)
Using nvidia proprietary driver, 173.14.28 (have tried both version off
website installed manually and ubuntu packaged versions). I haven't
tried using an older driver as none of them support xorg 1.9.
It will only load if I leave the mouse completely alone while it's doing
it, and this is what I get on the command line:
r...@maturin:~$ ~/gnome-shell/install/bin/gnome-shell --replace
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module":

directory

If I try the same thing, but move the mouse at the wrong moment, it goes
back to Gnome2, and I see the following:
r...@maturin:~$ ~/gnome-shell/install/bin/gnome-shell --replace
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module":
