Well my problem was because I upgraded from F14 to F16. Apparently the
upgrade logic doesn't install gnome-shell because it didn't exist in F14
and thus is not in the upgrade.
If you installed from a Live CD, it does not sound like the same problem.
One way to find out if gnome-shell is missing in your installation is to
run the following command from a terminal:
$ rpm -qa | grep gnome-shell
Among possible other results you should see:
gnome-shell-3.2.2.1-1.fc16.i686
If you do not see the above entry, then you should login as root and
install the gnome-shell using yum:
yum install gnome-shell
If you do see that gnome-shell is installed then there is some other
problem. I have another F16 system that will not run in
non-fallback-mode. So far I have no answers on that one.

It seems like you're using fallback mode. This is used when the
graphics
card or the drivers are not good enough.
What kind of graphics card do you have? Can you go to
system settings,
system info. Then under the graphics tab you should see if
you're
using
fallback mode or not.
Else, just post a screenshot.
