Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
I'm currently runing Feisty. services-admin is a way to provide a user
friendly service administration, but suffers (in my humble and
unimportant opinion) from the fact that the descriptions of the services
are not quite clear.
For instance:
* I've got two "Power Management" entries, one for acpid and one for apmd.
Labelling them as "power management" is not very useful if you've got two
entries under the same label without at least a short description
of what they are and how one differs from the other.
* "Printer service": Again two entries, one for cupsys and another for
hplip, without a description.
Actions Scheduler (anacron, atd) and "Computer activity logger" also
suffer the same fate.
It would be also useful to provide guidelines as to when a service is
needed. For instance I do not have hdparm enabled, so I could think that
"Oh, my hard disk is not tuned" or "I've got Audio Settings Management
disabled but my sound still works".
