Me and my friend both installed GNOME on 11.10 I have problem that I cant left click on top bar, middle click also doesnt work. My friend gets weird tiny light blue boxes in GUI...
So is GNOME broken in 11.10 or we just have bad luck? OH and PCs arent similar, His is AMD/ATI laptop, mine is Intel/nV desktop

EDIT: to make it clearer:
I use gnome classic, and right click on top bar wont work... you know add to panel.... that menu behaves like it doesnt exist. My friend fixed his problem in GNOME 3 by going bact to open source driver. But he still cant right click on top bar on GNOME classic.

Even if you boot in GNOME 3 in fallback mode (what you call GNOME Classic) it would look like GNOME 2 but it won't be GNOME 2 and you won't be able to add applets and there is no right click on panels (nothing happen if you do a right click on panels) but you can do a Alt+RightClick on it to access it's properties dialog.

I suggest you try using GNOME shell, it's hard to use at first but you'll get used to it in no time.
