Public bug reported:
Please consider a less dramatic end-user notification for "problem"
notifications.
I'm transitioning long-time Microsoft Windows and some Apple Mac users
to Ubuntu. Often, they are "change resistant" -- looking for any reason
to claim that Ubuntu(Linux) is not "as good", etc..
Please consider changing the user-facing crash dialogs with wording such
as:
<b>Correcting for system anomaly</b>
Submitting report to authors.
[ Continue ]
Then, silently gather report data and submit to maintainers/developers.
More often then not, in my experience, these crashes are recoverable and
deal with things like: cups-browsed, hpps, Xorg, etc. which are foreign
concepts to end-users anyway.
Make the current developer/technician friendly notifications an opt-in
config from an 'update-alternatives' or similar post-install process.
Thank you for your consideration in making Ubuntu an easier transition
for non-technical end-users and their sysadmins.
