Problem resolved. I went to Edit --> Preferences --> List Columns. None of the buttons were checked. Once I began checking them, things began to appear in the list view. I'm surprised none of the choices were turned on by default. So it's probably not a bug, but your configuration folks should probably turn on a couple of items by default. If this distribution is to be easy to use, I would think that users would expect something to show up immediately when "List View" is selected as it does in Windows. Shouldn't have had to go looking for things to display.
