=== '''Update your machine''' ===
If you're running Fedora 21, make sure you have all the current updates for it installed, using the update manager. Or:
=== '''Live image''' ===
Optionally, you may download a non-destructive live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at [[FedoraLiveCD]].

{{admon/warning | Installation not supported | The Test Day live image contains the Fedora installer, but Fedora 19 is in a very early (pre-Alpha!) state right now, so installing it is strongly discouraged on anything but a disposable test system. Additionally, testing suggests installation is broken on these particular Test Day images.}}
=== Software Rendering ===
Computers with obsolete graphics with buggy 3D drivers and VM hypervisors like KVM or VirtualBox don't have complete 3D support yet. But you can run Gnome Shell using software rendering (llvmpipe driver) on the CPU.
* You may need to uninstall your GPU driver by running {{command|yum remove xorg-x11-drv-nouveau}} for example to force enable llvmpipe driver. You will need to restart X by logging out and back in for this to take effect.
* Of lesser interest, but still worth checking, is whether GPUs already on the hardware blacklist work with their native driver instead.  This can be checked by commenting out the appropriate entry from <code>/usr/share/gnome-session/hardware-compatibility</code> and logging out and back in to Gnome.
{{admon/important | Check if Xorg uses software rendering, run: <code>glxinfo</code> and check output for string: <code>OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 0x300)</code>.
Or you can check if you are using software rendering in the Control Center -> Details (llvmpipe)}}
