GNOME 3 is not shipped in Ubuntu 11.04;  the user needs to explicitly
install a PPA to use GNOME 3.  Eg. unless you actually manually ran:

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

...then you are /very/ unlikely to be running GNOME 3 accidentally!
