I have been looking forward to the update of my favourite operating system Debian from squeeze to wheezy.
I thought it would be interesting to update one of my machines ( an amd64 bit ASUS), and I have just spent two days trying to use the new desktop Gnome3. I have been SO disappointed that at this moment I am re-installing squeeze. I was sorry to see that the very useful GNOME web-browser Epiphany has been replaced by a very stupid and noisy game of that same name. I had some difficulty getting rid of it. I have poor eye-sight, and make much use of "CTRL shift +" to magnify that which I need to see, and "CTRL -" to reverse. This was not possible in many GNOME3 cases. Please why can we not have a choice of the new-fabgled desktop (for those who like it) and the old, well tried Gnome desktop for folks like me ? I have been using the "old" version of the Gnome desktop ever since they wrecked KDE3 and introduced KDE4. I think that the KDE exampled was abad one, but has been repeated. Best wishes.
