(Get the code!)
I have to agree with Josh.
I did install 173, and Unity was working fine, so I decided to try out Gnome 3, and it was a total catastrophe, under 173. The content of the windows was not updating properly, so I was stuck with a computer that "seemed" blocked, untill I realized it was only a matter of freezing windows (Icould see the windows "moving" when I saw them as thumbnails only.
So, all in all, I uninstalled Gnome 3, reinstalled the latest nvidia driver, forget 173, and went back to Gnome 2.
The point of the matter is that, in my opinion (I have Unity in another machine), Unity is not worth the learning curve to get it to work at least as good as gnome 2 was. Maybe if, one day, there is a new nvidia driver that solves this problem, I will try it again.
For the time being, I feel I have wasted enough time trying to solve a problem that simply is not worth it.
BTW, maybe in that new driver, nvidia will get a way to change the brightness of the monitor when I disconnet it from AC.
