Thanks a lot, it seems to be located in gnome-session-fallback package. And it will be part of Wheezy too? Some time ago the fallback version was unavailable when a 2D solution was found. BTW: I wonder how to configure applets and extended features with the Gnome 3 session, provided by the gnome-applets and gnome-shell-extensions packages. I did not find out how to do that, still using it on the laptop. alt+right click does not work. And is there a way to disable the 3D functions, the laptop has only 1GB memory and a slow graphics card (I think it is an i915).
