GNOME runs fine without hardware 3D support, but the llvmpipe code that

Gnome3 Desktop is unusable on i686 with RV280 video card driven by llvmpipe.
XFCE and MATE *do* run just fine using the classic ati driver.

Well, even without llvmpipe, nouveau and a G84M [GeForce 8600M GT]
choke on Gnome 3 shipping with F19 but not F18. Gnome-shell and Xorg
hog 1/2 to more than a full core between them. I consider that
unusable for anything beyond light web browsing or the computer turns
into a combo hot plate / hair dryer.

Well, that's clearly a bug in the driver layer somewhere.
