Thank you, it looks fine. Now I've upgraded my openSUSE 12.3 machines to Gnome 3.8, but can't find a new feature that should be available:

Gnome Classic session on the login menu !?

Thanks, Terje J. Hanssen

zypper in gnome-shell-classic

Note that we have not enabled any magic yet, so the extensions are just installed but not enabled when you log in via the gnome-classic selection. Enable the ones you want in tweak-tool for now.

Yeah, I see. An upgrade from 3.6.2 did not include the gnome-shell-classic. Now I've added it, logged into a classic session and enabled the avavilable extensions as mentioned here http://www.webupd8.org/2013/02/a-quick-look-at-new-gnome-classic.html But I have to admit it isn't easy to see the differences compared to the normal Gnome 3 session and it's enabled extensions. What I have missed from Gnome 2.x is drag and drop from the desktop to the bottom panel and the ability to create my own application quick launchers and more. The Gnome 3 bottom panel still looks brain dead in comparision(?)

Hi everybody!

The openSUSE GNOME Team did the impossible and unbelievable: the released the GNOME:STABLE:3.8 repository into the wild!

Have a look at http://dominique.leuenberger.net/blog/2013/04/gnome-3-8-for-opensuse-12-3-go... and don't waste any time to get it as well.

Have a lot of fun! Dominique and the entire openSUSE GNOME Team

Terje, GNOME-Classic was considered less important by myself and I did not want to block the entire repo until I have the time to fix this one. The gnome-classic entry appears in GDM upon installation of the gnome-shell-classic package; due to minor errors, though, this still starts a normal gnome-shell session. The idea is, of course, not having to go and enable the Extensions one by one: the shell knows what is needed for the classic mode and will switch them all on, as well as enabling nautilus as the 'desktop'. Mind though: this will stay GNOME 3. The classic mode is in no way meant to be GNOME 2.. those times are over; the ones that keep on trying to hang on to it should look for any of the forks that happened (Cinnamon, Mate); I will not invest time in maintaining them.
