Running
|

|
|
|

|
|
You can either start gnome-shell "nested" in a window within your current
|
||
|
|
session, or you can run it within your session replacing gnome-panel and
|
||
|
|
window manager.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Depending on the state of your X drivers, one or of the other of these may
|
||
|
|
work better. So, if the first one you try doesn't work, try the other.

Running gnome-shell replacing the panel
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This approach is best when trying out the GNOME Shell and wanting to see its
|
||
|
|
full potential.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
gnome-shell --replace
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When gnome-shell exits (you can kill it with Control-C in the terminal in which
|
||
|
|
you started it), gnome-panel and metacity are restarted.

|
Running gnome-shell nested
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This approach is useful when developing the GNOME Shell and wanting to quickly
|
||
|
|
test some changes. NOTE: It isn't useful for getting a good feel for how the
|
||
|
|
shell works since it will be really slow, and won't properly integrate with
|
||
|
|
the rest of your desktop.

(This requires a relatively recent version of Xephyr with GLX support to be

|
|
installed on your system (x11-servers/xephyr).
