I could have sworn that I had, but I went through this process again
anyway, and sure enough, the install of guest additions behaved very
differently this time. Last time, I had not yet run the guest on a
system that actually let me check the "3D acceleration" button (the
other desktop uses nouveau instead of nvidia), so obviously this causes
the guest additions installer to behave very differently. After going
through this, it now works (I see the "Activities" menu instead of
"Applications" and "Places", so I'm not in fallback mode any more), and
I will have a chance to see what all the fuss is about. After all I've
read about GNOME 3, I don't want to assume "it sucks" without trying it
first, but I have certainly heard enough to make me want to try it in a
VM before it becomes my default desktop. If I end up deciding to switch
to KDE, then I will probably do that before upgrading my main desktop to
F15.
