I was amused with the Gnome 3 when I first used it on my Ubuntu 9.10, it is really great and I can’t wait to see it as the default on Ubuntu…

To Install

sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

To run

gnome-shell –replace

Also you could write a shell script to run it in silent mode:

1. create an empty file an call it “gnome-shell.sh”.
2. fill in it the script above “gnome-shell –replace”.
3. right click on the file ==> properties.
4. go to permissions tab and and allow to run the file as executable.
5. double click on the file and choose “Run”.

Here is a screen shot from my desktop.
