Compatibility and Workarounds depend on what version

GNOME
  1. GNOME 2: Compatible and no Workaround Required
  2. GNOME 3.0 through 3.6: “gnome-fallback” mode must be installed. This is included with most, if not all distros.
  3. GNOME 3.8: “gnome-flashback” is required. It is not included with that many distros. There are bugs with it.
  4. GNOME 3.10: “gnome-flashback” 3.8.x may be compatible, but there are even more bugs with it.
UNITY
  1. Ubuntu 12.04: Compatible, as long as package “unity-2d” is installed. By default with “Ubuntu Desktop”, it is.
  2. Ubuntu 12.10 and later (included 14.04): Not compatible
