9.1 RC1 Install Report ThinkPad T520

[seanbruno]

Intel Wireless, nVidia Graphics (optimus disabled in BIOS) all seem 100% functional.

Gnome2 has some icon/display issues on the desktop (PBI's don't get valid icons), and in the sys tray (non-Gnome things have a strange black bar underneath them).

Using Gnome2: It looks like the screensaver is not starting on reboot and I have to go into the screensaver configuration each time to restart it.

Gnome2 glitch: It doesn't look like PBI's are being added to the application menus at all. Firefox, openoffice, gimp, minecraft and rhythmbox do not appear in the menu. I do get funcntional shortcuts on my desktop.

When running the shortcuts on my desktop, they pop up an "untrusted security alert" selection menu.

It looks like rhythmbox isn't working on this release. I think it needs the same update as specified in the following thread:

And by "not working" I mean, it doesn't play shoutcast streams.

Turns out this was a permission issue, the desktop files had been set to
644, and changing them to 744 fixed the problem, and probably does for
the menu icons as well. I've fixed it in pbi-manager, so any updated
PBIs will do this automatically now. In addition it fixes icons in KDE
to not complain about if the program is trusted when you first run it also.

I just finished looking into the Rhythmbox/Shoutcast issue, and posted the results back on that other forum thread if you are interested.
