The reason might be that the "gnome classic" session is not "classic" at all, but based on gnome 3.0, which seems to put some of these system settings to other places in the menu.
However, calling this "gnome classic" is absolutely misleading, since it is quite new and different. So this should definitely be renamed into "gnome 3.0" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876011 Title: gnome classic: System menu missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/meta-gnome3/+bug/876011/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
