I went ahead and opened a bug report with suse, so maybe someone upstream will notice it and realize what's going on? I don't plan to switch distros any time soon so I might attempt manually building gnome-shell.

If you ever do write anything up I'll be happy to test, even if you it's something small it will be nice to get it fixed :D > On 2 September 2012 05:16, Jasper St. Pierre <jstpie...@mecheye.net> wrote: > > On Sat, Sep 1, 2012 at 11:33 AM, Norman L.
