Its not really the same discussion, I just reported a name change on the menu, I'm using gnome3-shell on
both this and the laptop, which is still running fedora, which is ahead of debian Sid.
When they catch up, I'll move the laptop to Wheezy.
It really is a shame that the extensions to gnome-shell haven't been added to the repos.
IMO had the deb devs done that, 80 % of the winges would not have happened.
The only extension I'd like is the one which puts shutdown on the menu as well as suspend.
Maybe because the debian maintainer is using laptops and just shutting the lid is good enough.
I would like to move the hot spot to the bottom LH or RH corner.
