I'm running F16 with gnome-shell on an old i386 P4 machine and an nvidia 6200 AGP. It's a little on the sluggish side but otherwise works fine with the default drivers. Last time I tried it, gnome-shell ran fine on my newer nvidia card (gt265, I think) with nouveau as well. Nouveau works in general but I suppose that depends on which adapter you're using. I don't expect it to have the same 3D capabilities as the proprietary nvidia blob drivers but it does work well enough for my normal use. I can't speak for AMD/ATI cards, though as I don't have any running linux ATM. Tim
