It's not clear whether some of the last few posters have the enclosure that gives you 'ID 05e3:0701' from lsusb - which is what the bug nominator has - but this problem is not going to go away by itself. I'm disappointed (a diplomatic understatement) that this bug remains undecided and unassigned.

Well - more than a year has gone by, and no action. Let me rephrase "not as user friendly". No - HOPELESS. Particularly for a classical music lover such as myself.

I believe this bug is indeed invalid because you can already disable the global menu in the classic desktop very easily. I'm surprised no one's mentioned this yet. The global menu is simply a panel applet in classic gnome. If you want to disable it, right-click on it and "Remove from Panel". If yo

I can add something to this. This is happening in Jaunty as of today. If you rely on the fstab entry as set up by the Jaunty installer for an internal partition (device mountpoint ntfsdefaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=460 1), you get: Nautilus file copy ext3 partition -> NTFS partition

Thanks for your response. My apologies - I didn't think of compiz and you are quite right.

You can close this bug now. After 11 days gnome-shell memory usage has been stable. I must have had an application causing the issue. As I leave my PC on for a long time, never shutdown, I do not know what it would have been that caused this. But I am sure it is not gnome-shell. -- You received t
