Adding Gnome 3 to Ubuntu 11.04

This works for Ubuntu 11.04.

To install Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 11.04 you basically do
sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

and then switch to it doing
gnome-shell --replace

If after first command you get an error about unmet dependencies like gir1.2-atk-1.0 you might open Ubuntu Software Center and click Edit->Software Sources... and add "ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3".

Or do it via terminal by running
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

After that re-run the first command
