Gnome really isn't intended for those systems anyway.

requires a reasonable 3d-capable video card to run well. I have a
bunch of old P4 computers in a school for students to use. I set
them up with Mate which works great there.
I find this just crazy. Why should just the desktop interface require
a beefy graphics card? I use Mate because of that silliness.
If I was doing fancy graphics in the programs that I use, then I'd
consider spending an outrageous amount of money on the graphics card.
But not just for the sake of the desktop interface.
