Hi guys,
If I use
xf86-video-nouveau
and
nouveau-dri
I get in trobles, at boot I get messages like:
[ 16.969376] nouveau E[ PFIFO][0000:01:00.0] write fault at 0x0000000000 [INVALID_STORAGE_TYPE] from BAR3/BAR_WRITE on channel 0x003fe38000 [unknown]

The gdm starts but I can only use a reduced graphics version of gnome (that's almost ugly)
I tried to install
nvidia
or
nvidia-304xx
but gdm prints an error (Oops! Something went wrong) and it is not working.
Maybe I forgot some step, I don't know, but if you can suggest me something I'd really appreciate.
Thank you.

Update: I solved the drivers problem by using Bumblebee which let me install intel-dri drivers plus nvidia official drivers, so I don't get nouveau error messages anymore.
But I still have that terrible display of gnome!
I will try with other Desktop Environments to see if the 3D acceleration works, and it is just a matter of gnome-default-theme that's temporary terrible.

Lets me think I did it, by the drivers point of view.

I tried Cinnamon and it works pretty fine, but I wanted gnome 3!
If someone can help me, otherwise I will close this topic and look for an help about gnome 3!

Ok, if I type ALT+F2 everytime and give "r" as command, I can hope that it works.
So I will use
gnome-session-properties
and then I add
gnome-shell --replace
For the moment I stop here, hope there will be a better solution it after or before.
