Confirmed. Gnome 3 standard experience has been hosed after 3.5.92 gnome-shell update. I can login using fallback mode however.

Comment 3 luca pedrielli 2012-09-25 09:06:10 CEST

No, it isn't fixed.

Sorry, but the problem remains.

$ /usr/lib/gnome-session-check-accelerated-helper 
gnome-session-is-accelerated: No hardware 3D support.

but 3d is enabled in vbox and some days ago it was working fine.

i have no crash, and gnome3 start in fallback mode.

Comment 4 luca pedrielli 2012-09-25 22:29:59 CEST

i noticed that now the graphic driver is Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 0x301).
this driver is blacklisted in /usr/share/gnome-session/hardware-compatibility

in another vbox with mageia2 the driver is Chromium and 3d works.

Comment 5 Manuel Hiebel 2012-09-25 23:34:47 CEST
