Title:
  enable gnome-shell to run with software rendering (llvmpipe)

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “gnome-shell” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  fedora 17/18 have gnome-shell running with software rendering
  (llvmpipe). On Ubuntu gnome-shell will only run when hardware 3D is
  available.

  This would be particularly useful for the ubuntu gnome live CD's

  llvmpipe is currently blacklisted in gnome-session hardware-compatibility. 
  /usr/share/gnome-session/hardware-compatibility

  Removing the blacklisting, is enough to get both gdm and gnome-shell
  running with llvmpipe (no fallback mode!). I have tested this in a VM
  and performance seems ok, definitely useable. It is atleast as fast as
  the equivalent Unity session, if not a little faster.
