Gnome Shell 2.29, a few issues. (Applications menu & Window transitions problems)

[mohit chawla <mohit chawla binary gmail com>]

I upgraded to 2.29 using the Ricotz testing PPA for Karmic 64-bit. A few issues I noticed:

1. There are no applications listed in the applications menu initially. If however you browse the home directory, open a few files from there (.htm, multimedia files), then the menu is filled with applications, and is usable after that.

2. Window transitions are not smooth. They are slow & jittery, and hence dampen the experience a lot. 

Hope to find a solution for these.

Cheers.
