Gnome3 on Wheezy

[Philip Reardon <pcr@pcrt.us>]

I like Gnome3 a lot! But while I could use it under Fedora on my older
hardware, I never could get it to work under Wheezy until I bought a
refurbished ATI Radeon 9600SE for about $30 and installed it.  After
some bumps (Wheezy did not ask for the necessary firmware during
install, so I had to modify sources.list to add the contrib and non-free
repositories, then apt-get install firmware-linux and
firmware-linux-nonfree and reboot) I now have all that Gnome3 goodness
on Debian. I think maybe some of the recent gnome critics just need a
new video card.
