The day is finally here, the day that the GNOME team releases GNOME 3.0, the first major revision of the GNOME project since 2002. Little of GNOME 2.x is left in GNOME 3.0, and as such, you could call it GNOME's KDE4. We're living in fortunate times, what, with two wildly divergent open source desktops.

Ubuntu GNOME Remix is a new official Ubuntu flavor that aims to bring a pure upstream GNOME desktop experience built from the Ubuntu 12.10 repositories.
An alpha version of Ubuntu GNOME Remix is a developer snapshot that will give you a very early glance at the next version of Ubuntu GNOME Remix.
Ubuntu Gnome Remix has following features:
The Ubuntu GNOME Remix ships with the first GNOME
I'm experiencing some problems with Ubuntu Gnome Remix 12.10 64bits.
My gnome-tweak-tool doesn't apply themes properly. For the gkt themes, I noted that they are not fully applied. For example, I select Elementary's gtk theme and the window's border (metacity?) still with Adwaita. The theme also looks weird, what led me to believe that there was some engine missing, but that wasn't the case.

Hello again:
I'm a bit confused about gnome-fallback and gnome-panel. My Ubuntu-Tweak (from tualatrix) says I'm using gnome-fallback as DE:

I remember I installed gnome 3, which comes with gnome-fallback. But I also have installed gnome-panel (I see it marked at Ubuntu Software Center). Could you explain to me the difference? Or it's the same.
I just installed F17 and found that the handy command 'gnome-open' is not there. I am wondering if I need to install some package to get it? Or it is replaced by something else.

I found that the solution is

The GNOME Shell redefines user interactions with the GNOME desktop. In particular, it offers new paradigms for launching applications, accessing documents, and organizing open windows in GNOME. Later, it will introduce a new applets eco-system and offer new solutions for other desktop features, such as notifications and contacts management.
