I’ve just upgraded to Gnome 2.28 from 2.26 on Debian unstable. Everything seems
to be cool in shiny in the new gnome 2.28. However I’ve noticed that the icons in gnome panel
System menu are not showing a well as the icons for “Search For Files†and “Places†are
missing as well. After consulting with a guy named
borschty
in ##gnome irc.freenode.net
I found out that the default behaviour of icons in menus has changed in Gnome 2.28 so if somebody
likes to have it back activated here is how:
In:System-> Preferences-> Appearance-> InterfaceHere tick the “Show icons in menus†optionNow your icons should appear back in the menus.
More about this kind of issues can be red on the followingblog.

No sound via pulseaudio in gnome 2.28 Debian unstable after upgrade and a simple fix
Sunday, October 4th, 2009I’ve upgraded to gnome 2.28 on my Debian unstable. I was not surprised
to find out that sound is not working again. After some general debugging and testing :).
I’ve found the solution. The solution is to simply delete .pulse and .pulse-cookie
rm -rf ~/.pulserm -rf ~./.pulse-cookieNow restart pulseaudio:
killall -HUP pulseaudio
Hopefully sound now should be flowing right through your speakers.
