[Bug 1776196] Re: mate-character-map applet looks bad with TraditionalOK theme

I've finally upgraded to Ubuntu Mate 20.04.3 LTS and the problem remains the same. I can post another screenshot, if needed, but it will look eerily similar to the one from two years ago. There are several other rendering issues with TraditionalOK on 20.04. Is it still an officially maintained and

Trying the Jaunty Alpha-3 Live CD in VMWare Player gives similar results to my comment above - the refresh rate is listed as 0Hz, but making a change and clicking Apply does change the resolution. Although this does work there are a couple of minor problems: the (virtual) monitor appears as "Unkno

I certainly prefer the larger icons, but I question whether or not the big icon should be on the button. An icon on a button should usually indicate what the button will do, not what the current state is. I would suggest having the icon grouped with the string "Your Private folder is currently..."

Based on Dustin's comments it appears that checking the automount option should simply create ~/.ecryptfs/auto-mount whilst unchecking it should remove that file. The initial state of the checkbox should be reflect the existence, or otherwise, of that file. I notice that Dustin also mentions an au

It still seems to be an issue in Hardy (Fileroller version 2.22.3). In Intrepid (Fileroller version 2.23.5) it seems to work as desired, although I'll add the caveat that I was unable to make an SMB connection to my Windows box from Intrepid, so was only able to test it using SSH back into localhos
