[Bug 260630] [NEW] Mouse disappears when moved over kstars star chart
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kdeedu Open KStars and hover the mouse over the main star chart viewing area. The mouse pointer becomes invisible, so it's impossible to see which part of the map you are hovering over. This makes it difficult to select stars and view their properties, for example. The expected behaviour is that the pointer is *not* invisible. The pointer *is* visible when hovering over the rest of the UI, just not the star chart. When you click-and-drag on the star chart, the pointer becomes visible again with the "dragging in progress" pointer icon. When you stop dragging, it disappears again. kstars 4:4.1.0-0ubuntu5 running on up-to-date Ubuntu Intrepid. ** Affects: kdeedu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Mouse disappears when moved over kstars star chart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260630 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to kdeedu in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

[Bug 272824] Re: Applet has too much horizontal padding
Hi Martin, The updated applet works fine, I haven't noticed any regressions. The padding is much better, but I'd still argue that another couple of pixels could be removed from the right-hand side of the applet, just to avoid the same Fitts Law problems that the Windows 95 Start button had [1]. In fact, would it be possible to set the applet to raise/light-up on mouse-over, like the clock applet? This would solve the problem completely, IMO.

Thanks for reporting this. The affected documentation is in the GNOME user guide, which is being rewritten over the next 2 release cycles. As such, I'm not sure that it's worth addressing this immediately rather than waiting for the new docs. What's your opinion, are many users struggling with this in particular?

Hi mpt, For fear of getting further off-topic, I'll reply in a separate email regarding the test videos. Unfortunately for this bug, there is going to be a license change when the whole guide is rewritten. Certainly, the g-u-g is not fit for purpose at the moment. I doubt it helps very many users, as I've seen with my own user testing. So, is it worth fixing this one issue that happens to have been reported as a bug when there are so many other issues lying unreported? Or should we just wait until the wholesale "fixing" of the docs on the arrival of the new guide? If you have seen a significant number of users struggling with this particular issue and think that improving this topic will result in a reasonable improvement to their user experiences, then we should fix the bug now.

[Bug 395360] [NEW] Title of guide should be changed to avoid confusion with new installation guide
Public bug reported: A new installation guide is planned for the Karmic release (see spec :karmic-installation-guide). This guide will be suitable for non- technical users, whereas the existing installation-guide is suitable for more technically-inclined users. The title used by the existing installation-guide package is "Ubuntu Installation Guide". This is likely to confuse people when the new guide is released, especially if they arrive at the guide via Google. The title of the installation-guide should be changed to reflect its more technical nature. The new title should encourage technical users to read installation- guide rather than the new, more basic guide. It should discourage non- technical users from reading installation-guide, which is likely to confuse them. ** Affects: installation-guide (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Title of guide should be changed to avoid confusion with new installation guide https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395360 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 395360] Re: Title of guide should be changed to avoid confusion with new installation guide
Thanks for your feedback. It wouldn't make sense, because then we'd be covering two very different installation methods simultaneously, both ubiquity and debian-installer. We'd also be targeting two very different user groups. When you write (good) documentation, it's very important to write to a specific audience so you can take into account their individual needs and existing knowledge. Writing for non-techs and techs simultaneously will result in something that is unsuitable for both groups. I'm not interested in producing a massive 200 page treatise on everything there is to know about installing Ubuntu either, because *no-one* wants that information. The new guide is being written in response to a perceived user need. Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/KarmicInstallationGuide and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/KarmicInstallationGuide/FAQs for more on this. Each guide should link to the other, in order to send users who've accidentally arrived at the wrong guide on to the right one. This bug is about changing the title so that it's immediately obvious which guide is which. I haven't said that the new guide will be called the "Ubuntu Installation Guide". We'll choose a name appropriate to the target audience later on in the development process. ""Deciding arbitrarily that "newcomers have priority, so the old guide should give up its name" seems unhelpful."" I based the decision on the answers to the following questions: Which is the larger user group? Which user group is more likely to be confused by which guide? Is there a sufficiently large body of legacy users who will be adversely affected by a name change of the installation-guide? -- Title of guide should be changed to avoid confusion with new installation guide https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395360 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 395360] Re: Title of guide should be changed to avoid confusion with new installation guide
Hi Jonathan, Wow, that's a long post. I apologise in advance for the necessary length of my reply. Also, please understand that I'm replying on behalf of a team of 7 people here, not just myself. I think it might help if I first give you some background on my desire to create a new installation guide. I've been a member of the Ubuntu Documentation team for several years now, and the first work that I performed there was writing the Switching from Windows guide. This is now in need of replacement. My assessment of the state of that guide was that it tried to be all things to all people, and ended up failing to be useful to anyone. (You may have noticed that I'm worried about something similar happening here!) There were no defined user personas, no general aim to the guide, etc., fairly vital ingredients to producing good documentation. You can't just say that "this document is for everyone!"; you have to have a clear picture of who you're writing for in your head at all times. While thinking about how best to replace the SFW guide, I tried to identify the needs of users by analysing IRC logs (about 2GB worth of questions!) and looking at the most popular pages on the help wiki and the forums. My findings surprised me (always a good sign that I'm not making things up); it seemed that *lots* of people were interested in relatively basic installation-related questions. For example, the most popular page on the help wiki, even more popular than the front page, is a document on how to burn Ubuntu to an ISO. That puts us firmly in non- technical user territory. A technical user, in my definition, would most likely understand the concept of CD images, or at least know what to do with them. My proposed solution was to write an official installation guide aimed at these users. How many users have we lost over the years because they couldn't figure-out a "simple" thing like burning an ISO, I wonder? I was aware of the installation-guide package and have skimmed through it previously. It is *completely* unsuitable for non-technical users. I know this from experience. I previously worked in technical support, have worked as a technical reviewer on a book ("Ubuntu for Non-Geeks"), and have been writing documentation for a good 4-5 years now. Still, you shouldn't have to take my word for it. Print a copy of the guide out and find a non-technical user and see what they understand. See if they can install Ubuntu, without any prompting from you. My expectation is that most would fall at the first hurdle and fail to burn the ISO onto a CD correctly! OK, so hopefully that's enough background. I'll now move on to addressing some specific points from your reply. Forgive me if I sound a little terse, I'm trying to be brief. (a) "Putting some more technical material along with that introductory material should help ensure that all the material related to Ubuntu installation is clear and consistent in its use of terminology, and so would make both parts of the whole more useful." When we write documentation, we refer to a style guide. This ensures consistent terminology. Consistency is a poor reason to include technical information. A good reason to include technical information is if it is necessary to allow the user to accomplish their task. (b) "determining what the common installation issues for Karmic will be, before it is released, will be a challenge!" Indeed, which is why Nathan Handler is filling a role entirely devoted to user testing and collecting information on common problems. My own researches suggest that there are certain issues which crop-up every release, such as GRUB errors and problems with partitioning. We will concentrate on these as much as possible, since handling hardware- specific problems is too big a task, as you say. It is likely that only hardware-specific problems with sufficiently common hardware will be included in the Troubleshooting section. (c) "The really simple Ubuntu installs in effect need no documentation" It seems likely from this comment that you have never seen an unassisted non-technical user install Ubuntu for themselves. You may be surprised at the problems people run into. Besides, ubiquity isn't the biggest generator of user assistance queries. It's the bits before, and possibly after, that are. (d) "That does not mean what you personally are or are not interested in is the best way to decide what the Ubuntu community as a whole is best served by" I hope I have answered this comment by explaining my motivations, above. I am basing as many of my decisions as possible on user testing and analysis of common user assistance queries. My interests lie firmly in providing a good user experience for our users, although I understand that perhaps that wasn't obvious. (e) ""I don't think many "non-tech" end users will be printing out this installation documentation anyway, so number of pages is perhaps a poor metric to be using."" That's true, but I do anticipate a use case wh

[Bug 341377] Re: Confusing on the kernel Linux and whole system GNU/Linux in basic-commands
Hi Osama, While there is technically an ambiguity between "Linux the operating system" and "Linux the kernel", in practice there is no confusion, for the following reasons: * Most users neither know nor care what a kernel is, and any user documentation is going to be referring to "Linux the operating system" 99% of the time anyway; the fact that there is a kernel named "Linux" is irrelevant to most users. * The kernel is an integral part of the operating system, so for most purposes "Linux the operating system" and "Linux the kernel" are synonymous. There is no need to differentiate between the two. * "Linux" is the dominant term used to refer to "Linux the operating system". Attempting to use the term "GNU/Linux" may confuse users, who may have only ever heard it referred to as "Linux". I concede that the term "Linux" is used wrongly in this context, but that doesn't matter; everyone else uses it wrongly too. There is little value in trying to correct people's usage of these terms, especially since doing so may confuse some readers. "Linux" is the more common term, so we should continue to use that. -- Confusing on the kernel Linux and whole system GNU/Linux in basic-commands https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341377 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 341377] Re: Confusing on the kernel Linux and whole system GNU/Linux in basic-commands
Hi Osama, I disagree that the term "GNU/Linux" isn't confusing. Try asking a few non-technical computer users their opinion. We can't rely on users having read "about-ubuntu" either - most users look at the documentation to find a small snippet of information and then stop reading. Very few read the whole documentation. It is best for individual topics to stand alone without requiring any detailed preparatory reading. Also, I don't think that the aim of our user documentation should be to encourage people to learn more about Linux. Rather, it should be to provide users with answers to their problems. User assistance must always take preference over evangelism. -- Confusing on the kernel Linux and whole system GNU/Linux in basic-commands https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/341377 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 263779] Re: Evince takes over global shortcut keys
I also have this issue. It's extremely annoying! Whenever evince is running, it "takes over" my media keys. When I press the "Play/Pause" button on my keyboard, evince goes fullscreen. What should happen is that the audio player (e.g. Rhythmbox) starts or stops playing. Pressing the "Previous" or "Next" keys skips forward or back a page in evince. What should happen is that the audio player plays the next or previous track. The original function of the keys is not returned once evince is closed unless you focus Rhythmbox at some point: 1. Start Rhythmbox. 2. Press "Play/Pause" key. Track starts playing. 3. Open evince and switch focus to another application (e.g. gedit, Firefox). 4. Press "Play/Pause" key. Evince goes fullscreen. 5. Exit evince. 6. Press "Play/Pause" key. Nothing happens. 7. Focus Rhthmbox. 8. Press "Play/Pause" key. Tracks is paused (expected behaviour). 9. Defocus Rhythmbox. Press "Play/Pause" key.

[Bug 395360] Re: Title of guide should be changed to avoid confusion with new installation guide
This seems likely. I'm probably the person from the Doc Team who is most interested in installation, and I've never submitted a patch for it. I can't speak for others, but I've never done this because I'm not interested in the users that this guide is aimed at (and also because contributing upstream like this can be a bit of a hassle sometimes and I'm lazy). I don't think that the installation-guide is a bad document or that it's impossible to understand, although I understand that my comments may have given that impression. It's just that this document is aimed at a very different, far more advanced, user group to the one that I concentrate on. It's also worth noting that, if you have some documentation that you want someone to look at, let us (the Doc Team) know! The amount of documentation that ships with Ubuntu is truly immense, and the Doc Team is small and volunteer-led.

I quietly fixed that typo this morning. The fix had been hanging around in my local copy for a few days.

[Bug 144783] Re: Intro paragraph in "Advanced topics" section doesn't really help
Thanks for the patch Mads. Just a couple of comments: * The phrase "to your special needs" seems a little redundant, so could probably be removed. * "info" => "information" I think that your patch is an improvement over the original. I disagree with mpt that a user would be more likely to solve their problem (at all significantly) faster if the paragraph was not there, as I doubt most users read intro paragraphs! However, I do agree that an intro paragraph is not necessary in this case. I'm fine with it either way - a) updated text or b) no text. -- Intro paragraph in "Advanced topics" section doesn't really help https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144783 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
