I am reading "The standard Gnome 3 experience is now available on all
hardware".  Is this a plan, a wish or this is supposedly describing the
current situation?  I am asking because on my rawhide installation
(Radeon RV280 graphics card) I am surely not observing anything of that
sort. Gnome shell goes alway into an "fallback" mode while "Forced
Fallback Mode" is definitely off.  Just checked to be sure.

Good catch that is kind of a corner case were a 3D driver is present
but "not good enough".
You should be able to start gnome-shell using

LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 gnome-shell --replace

But not sure what we should do here and how having a native driver
will work with having software using vgem.

Ajax?

FYI - I can get the shell with this on RV200 in F17ARC2 (Live), but the processor gets pegged at 100% continuously and it's not usable.
