السلام عليكم،

  I've been using Oneiric for a week now. I switched to Gnome shell 
  instead of unity. 

  Personally I find Gnome shell to be lighter (& more stable) than Unity.

  There are a number of GTK3 & Gnome shells on internet:
  GTK3 themes:

  Gnome Shell themes:

  My personal preference is for the Sonar GTK theme:

  and Minty Fresh Gnome Shell theme:

  Minbar authors are working on this. As for other apps, it seems to be 
  taking more time:
  * Apps that are in Python cannot be changed until there is a GTK3 
    python binding
  * Zekr depends on SWT, which also has no GTK3 bindings so far.

  I still didn't figure out how the screensaver works with Gnome shell. 

  Anyone willing to help ?
