I think if you stop hating it because its different you could accept it as alternative userinterface if not even love it! (I'm neither developer nor "grade schooler") Regarding the fredom you mentioned: It's not at all a freedom to dictate the developers its a freedom to install what you want and where you want it! And a freedom to change everything (in code not in settings)! If you are not happy just modify it or install a different DE. If you look up some of your Problems with internet search engines you will find a lot of sollutions: http://justinstories.wordpress.com/2011/06/04/get-your-bottom-panel-functionality-back-in-gnome-shell/ http://www.webupd8.org/2011/06/get-classic-gnome-desktop-with-these.html so just have fun with the new Gnome! _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
