Updated to openSUSE 12.1 I found myself feeling nostalgia about Gnome 2 which was featured as part of openSUSE 11.4. I quickly enabled openSUSE 11.4 repository and carefully installed Gnome 2 packages from there. After installing each package I barred version modification and thoroughly checked so that no Gnome 3 packages installed. After work done I found that Gnome 2.32 works under openSUSE 12.1 pretty well without visible glitches.

Exactly which repository did you added? The 11.4 distrib repo, or the Gnome repo itself?
Good question! Unfortunately no details of how he did it. Awaiting a reply……;=|
Sorry if this was not clear, I added the openSUSE 11.4 repository.
I added the openSUSE 11.4 repository.
I should add is that my interest is that an upgrade to 12.1 has broken system due to gnome3 incompatibility with (the very common) radeon driver apparently…. :={
