Public bug reported: On intrepid, there is a "File Operations" dialogue for each longer copy or move operation. That dialogue is not resizable. Depending on the estimated duration, its size jitters. See Screenshot. Probably upstream prob.
It is similar to the other bug I reported that the remaining download time during dist-upgrade from hardy to intrepid and from feisty to hardy could not be read in languages hitting long words in localisation Suggested fix: make "File Operations" resizable via "grabbing" the corners/edges. GREEN: Sometimes it makes a newline, sometimes not, so the box resizes itself RED: No handles to rescale (like XP :-((( ) OFFtopic: one dual-core core of AMD x2 4400+ can handle approx 10 MB/s via SSH to Raid 5 array, the whole onboard 1:1 gigabit ethernet maxes to about 25 MB/s. When I copy the 4x1GB files all together, one single- threaded process gives 10 MB/s, sequential copying file after file. Thus, 2 files seperately start 2 threads -> 20 MB/s. Why not autodetect the number of processes that give the highest I/O ? Or something similar to the "background copy" option found in "Total Commander" or "WinScp" on the Redmond OS? ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- "File Operations" Dialogue is not scalable in Nautilus and causes Jitter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/308261 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
