How to install Gnome Shell in Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat.

This is a video showing you how to install the Gnome shell in Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat (as the title says..)

Commands to enter in terminal:

sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

export GNOME_SHELL_DISABLE_TFP=1 (if you have an intel graphics card.)

gnome-shell --replace (if you want to try it out, after logging out and back in again you will have to re execute this command. This command runs gnome-shell in terminal.)

sudo apt-get remove gnome-shell (Uninstall)

@ssiso8 There may have been some updates recently, but I suspect this is the newest version. Why do you ask?

[ssiso8]

@cr4sher6 That was my bad... :D

I believe it is 'sudo apt-get REMOVE gnome-shell' not 'uninstall' :P
