I've fixed it.

Resolved to, as far as I understood that ticket.

Yay. So, only testing on slightly older hardware that we *might* want
to go on supporting when migrating to Jessie (e.g. ThinkPad X32,
ThinkPad X60) is missing. Once we have test results on such a machine,
I'll formally propose that we ship GNOME Shell with the Classic set
of extensions.

Cheers,
