Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
The Apply button for the screen resolution config applet should be disabled when the user hasn't changed anything. Or, alternatively, the Apply button should not do anything if the user did not change any setting. The issue is that having it enabled leads to the following endless cycle: 1. Open the Screen resolution config applet from System/Preferences 2. Change the settings of some monitor 3. Click apply 4. Screens are configured correctly 5. Click "maintain configuration" in the countdown dialog that pops up 6. The config applet is still displayed, with the Apply button enabled 7. Not sure what I should do, so click apply -> GOTO 5 This actually happened to my girlfriend. She was able to setup her external monitor all right but she said the countdown dialog would pop up over and over, and that was because she clicked apply over and over... This is on Karmic, updated yesterday. ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Workflow for changing monitor configuration is misleading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/465676 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
