I got "spoiled" with the GNOME on Ubuntu 10.04 and when Unity became the
default for Ubuntu last year, I did not like it. I was told to use MATE
instead of GNOME 3 shell, since it was not fully working as of late
Spring. I could be better now, but I do not know. I will have to
install it on my 12.04 laptop and test it out.

The problem was fixed. All that was needed was a re installation of the

as to why I was using GNOME. it was a matter of curiosity as I am new to
unix (only had it for 2 weeks on the laptop) & I wanted to experience
all that it had to offer me. still have a long way to go yet but GNOME 3
on my system is working fine and I would dare say that it when combined
with Docky makes a very nice environment to work in. there is a trade
off though. if you use it you lose assess to the Home Dash as it is a
core part of unity I believe. A good thing to rerember is that if your
windows key is mapped correctly it brings it up as well as the HUD
:)

There was a thread about problems with the desktop environment and LO
with the darker desktop themes, I think.

My question is why are you using GNOME 3 shell for 12.04? From my
readings of articles about the current GNOME 3 shell, it is still not
fully functional, or at least the last article[s] seem to state.
I have no problem with LO using 12.04 and MATE for the desktop
substitution instead of GNOME 3 shell. I wanted my desktop to look as
much like the GNOME desktop that 10.04 has, so I went with MATE and it
works great.
That is why I went with MATE for Ubuntu 12.04 on my laptop that was
updated from 10.04 to 12.04 and the added MATE to get it working like I
needed.
I run LO 3.5.4 on all my Ubuntu and Windows systems at this point.
