    Question What is the best distro for gnome 3?

    The gnome 3 will be relased in 24 hours and I have heard that Ubuntu 10.10 doesn't support gnome 3. The 11.04 version supports as for testing or smth but it's at it's first beta stage. What are the distros that are perfect for gnome 3?

    You can install Gnome3 on Ubuntu 10.10. Though there may be some troubles with it.

    Most distros will eventually move to Gnome3, but it's very new and will take time to be implemented.

    I've heard that the latest Linux Mint has Gnome 3.

    I believe fedora 15 when released will be Gnome 3 based

    None of them

    That's like asking which chocolate and broccoli cake tastes the best. You DON'T want to upgrade to Gnome 3. It's an interface nightmare.

    Hello

    I don't know about "perfection" but any distro that comes with Gnome 3 by default will likely be better than one where Gnome 3 has to be added to it, because the distro developers will take some time to fix a few bugs and apply patches that you might not get if you apply Gnome 3 yourself. Whether or not Gnome 3 is a good desktop environment is still being heavily debated, but then it is extremely young and has not had anywhere near enough time to mature, just yet.
