+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> For the impact on Mageia, I think that depends entirely on how they
+</I>&gt;<i> deal with the display performance issue. Gnome3 should display
+</I>&gt;<i> efficiently on hardware without accelerated display, particularly
+</I>&gt;<i> for text display. Software emulation of hardware acceleration
+</I>&gt;<i> should only be used where strictly necessary.
+</I>
+In case the drivers are not good enough, GNOME 3 will be unusable.
+Something that another distribution brought up is that ideally something
+like that should be detected during installation, so that this can be
+taken into account up-front.
+
+&gt;<i> It might be useful to migrate gnome3 to fallback mode, instead of
+</I>&gt;<i> the inverse. That is, modify fallback mode so that it can perform
+</I>&gt;<i> all the functions now in regular gnome3, including using hardware
+</I>&gt;<i> acceleration of display where available. Thus using the current
+</I>&gt;<i> regular gnome3 as a testing ground for development of the current
+</I>&gt;<i> fallback mode.
+</I>
+I again suggest to read the wiki page for the issues with fallback mode.
