Gnome 3 only Fallback Mode

[Rubycon]

Hello everybody,

i've just set up a new small system with corecdx and made a

equo install gnome

The problem is, that gnome only starts in fallback mode.

/usr/libexec/gnome-session-check-accelerated-helper
gnome-session-is-accelerated: No hardware 3D support.

Hi,
which video drivers and video cards are you using?
The output of:

Code: Select all

eselect opengl list
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf


could be useful.

EDIT: Switched to nvidia w/ eselect and got the gnome shell back

Code: Select all

Apollo-17 dominus # eselect opengl list
Available OpenGL implementations:
  [1]   ati
  [2]   nvidia
  [3]   xorg-x11 *
Apollo-17 dominus # cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Yes, that was exactly the problem there, glad it is now fixed.
Be sure to use code tags in the future for large outputs, it makes your post much easier to read
