I have done a F16 new install on an HP Pavilion g series. When I did a

It's likely to be down to your graphics hardware - Gnome 3.2 requires
more hardware acceleration than traditional desktop environments. What
graphics hardware does the machine have? You can see this by running
lspci -v | grep VGA

In my case thew result is:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) (prog-if oo (VGA Controller)
How exactly is this controller lacking and how do you identify a video
controller that will work with Gnome w3.2?
