+Gnome-shell requires acceleration of to work. For this a nvidia card
+with the nvidia-driver, or a Intel/ATI KMS enabled card is needed.
+
+For the nvidia users no other changes are needed. For Intel/ATI KMS
+driver the user needs to have read/write permissions on
+/dev/dri/cardN (usually N=0). If gnome-shell is launched from gdm, the
+gdm user also needs this access.
+
+Access can be granted by adding the user(s) to the video group.
+ pw groupmod video -m jerry
+
+In order to launch your session. Copy 'xprofile' into your home directory:
+ cp %%EXAMPLESDIR%%/xprofile ~/.xprofile
+
+Create or edit /var/db/AccountsService/users/YOURLOGIN file:
+ [User]
+ Language=fr_FR.UTF-8 # e.g. for French users
+ Session=gnome-xorg
+ SystemAccount=false
+
+Replace YOURLOGIN by your login.
+
+Currently only 'gnome-xorg' is supported and tested.
