Gnome 3 and non-free firmware



I use Xfce on wheezy and and happy but I was interested enough to
install gnome 3 on a spare drive. Everything went fine except that I
was forced into using the fall back version as the installer couldn't
find a suitable graphics (3D) driver.

The on-board  graphics chip is nVidia. I have never had the need for
fancy graphics ability, gaming etc. but I have some concern if non-free
firmware is a requirement for running Gnome3.
