Bug Description

After installing 12 RC I am presented with a very Gnome 2 like desktop, with a menu in the top-left and the taskbar looks like Gnome 2. Upon installing nVidia drivers and restarting I get the full Mint Gnome 3 experience with the activities menu and so on.

Should we try to install graphics drivers when Linux Mint is installed, to prevent the user ever being shown the classic desktop? A user may spend significant time welcoming themselves to Linux only to see everything change when they reboot, if they even notice they need to install the drivers.
