My old-ish ThinkPad has an nVidia (173 series) GeForce FX Go5200 card and never looked better than when I booted the Official GNOME 3 Live DVD System (so good that I soon installed it). Since I use that machine for testing, over the course of the past six months I've also installed Debian's, Fedora's and Mageia's GNOME 3 desktops which all run the nouveau driver, and all give me a multi-coloured, striped top bar and messed-up desktop fonts. Just to make sure I wasn't imagining the perfection of the original Live DVD, I re-installed it this week (and I was right, it's perfect).
What did openSUSE get right ten months ago that still isn't right elsewhere? Is it safe to upgrade from GNOME 3.0? (I have GNOME Factory installed on my production laptop which has Radeon graphics, and on my production desktop which has a much newer nVidia card -- btw on the latter I don't get a GDM login screen on startup, just Console 1).
Well, I didn't do anything special in the GNOME 3 Live CD regarding
Nvidia, except shipping xorg-x11-driver-video-nouveau and Mesa-nouveau
(it was a separate package in 11.3, it was merged into Mesa main
package).
