I updated two days ago to Lucid and I am finding the whole indicator stuff on the right to be totally annoying even if it is not new anymore. I miss the tooltips, I hate the bluetooth icon, I hate the me-menu and the session button without icons. This indicator technology has potential but is incomplete and not customizable to fit all users' needs. It's five years and still this distro is managed like a beta of something yet to come.
I own the panel and the whole screen. I want to decide exactly what lives there and where to place it. Consistency and customization are two faces of the same medal. There are at least ten applets that need some love and consistency fixes, before adding a new mess. I can't get back the behavior I like and am accustomed to. It requires recompiling different packages. That does not make me feel good about running Ubuntu since dapper and installing it on more that 40 machines. You are forking the GNOME desktop and being more and more fascist in handling users' requests. Linux desktop's problem is just that 90% of the programs are 90% complete. Fixing bugs, adding small features and completing one program after the other is all that is needed. Not much glory in that, but that's what will make linux desktop actually usable -- please include status messages/tooltips https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527458 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
