[SOLVED] Gnome shell nm-applet and volume and other things

Hello,

I installed gnome shell from the gnome-unstable repo. As far as I can tell, I followed all instruction on the Gnome3 page of the wiki.

However, now I cannot use the top panel (or bar or whatever it's called).

1/ I can click on the nm-applet icon, but if I click on a network name or on 'Network settings', nothing happens.
2/ For the volume control, I can use the volume slider, but not 'Sound settings'.
3/ In the user menu, I can't click on Accounts, though I can change my status.

I can use 'nmcli' to connect, which is what I'm doing right now and I can open Sound settings from gnome-control-center.

Does anyone have any idea what is happening? I somehow suspect it's something I missed, though I can't figure out what. I did enable testing and I did everything else I was told.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

I thought they were related.

Thanks!

EDIT: Just saw the links...Those answer another question that I had too (why gnome-control-center wasn't showing up in the Applications list).

Re: [SOLVED] Gnome shell nm-applet and volume and other things

Hi, same problem here.
Installed gnome3 today.
Is the patch still not applied or is it something else?
