I don't run gnome, but from a more generic perspective you will need to 
install acpid and make sure it is running as a service when you boot up.  
Closing the lid then generates an event captured by acpid which by default 
will suspend to ram.  Check what you have at Settings > Settings Panel > Input 
> ACPI Bindings > Lid Closed.  I have set mine to 'Suspend Intelligently' and 
it works as advertised.

Settings > Settings Panel > Menu Settings > Applications, should give you some 
options.  One of these ought to make all/most application icons to show up.  
Also check Settings > Settings Panel > Menu Settings > Miscellaneous, does not 
have 'Disable icons in menus' selected.

To configure Everything, check your settings under Settings > Settings Panel > 
Launcher.

HTH  :-)
