Description Yorick Barbanneau 2013-02-23 22:17:01 UTC 
Some of my 3d Game have poor performances on Gnome-shell. If i come back to fallback mode, performances are normal.

A game like Trine 2 is unplayable with Gnome-Shell but work well in fallback mode

My system : 

Macbook 2012 (non retina)
core i5 2.5 Ghz
Intel DH 4000 GPU
16 Go RAM

Archlinux
Kernel 3.7.9
Gnome 3.6.3

This is known and already fixed in GNOME 3.7.x and will be in GNOME 3.8

Gnome 3.8 didn't change anything, i need to kill gnome-shell and start gnome-panel and metacity to play any game...
Comment 3 Jasper St. Pierre (not reading bugmail) 2013-05-08 14:40:54 UTC 
I'm looking into this today. Is the game full-screen?
Comment 4 Yorick Barbanneau 2013-05-08 16:57:17 UTC 
Hi Jasper,

In fact, all the games i play have this issues : Trine 2, the Cave, Brütal Legend, Amnesia... I play in full screen mode.
