I did, and everything works fine. I even discovered that GDM looks different
when acceleration is available ;)).
So these are two separate problems:
- Acceleration detection on some systems, from my limited tests, it works on
nVidia (32bit, will check 64 shortly), and fails on intel (mesa???) graphics.
This can be a bug report for gnome-session (/usr/lib64/gnome-session-check-accelerated*)
or for Mesa if it's it what breaks things.
- In full mode, gnome-shell from the user replaces gnome-shell from gdm.
But in fallback mode, gnome-shell can't replace GDM's metacity.
