Successfully upgraded to release 9. This machine has an nVidia card and
I ran into the problem described in bug 20835. Fortunately the change
of ownership to the ~/.xauth* files worked.

After installing MGA9 successfully, I noticed that changing the windows
behaviour (System Settings, Appearance, Colors, Oxygen) can't be made
permanent.

After choosing for instance Oxygen (with the nice blue Windows Title), I
can only click on the Apply button, but there is no OK button to make
your choice permanent.

So after a restart Oxygen is not remembered. The default Breez Light
modus with its grey window title shows up.

The same happens with the other Appearance settings: no OK button to
make choices permanent.
