Update to mutter 3.36.1-1ubuntu0.20.04.1 in focal/proposed also fixed the bug for AMD.

Isn't PopOS more a new distro based on Ubuntu rather than a flavor like KUbuntu, UbuntuMate, XUbuntu? However, when PopOS people fixed it, it should be possible to learn from their code to fix mutter faster. But this had to be done by someone. I *am* able to code, and probably could take a look, but also my skills and my speed are far not good enough, when hundreds of persons are very eager to get a fix fast >> If you are skilled enough to contribute code, why don't you help but instead >> complain? > > I probably WILL dedicate time to this, but the bug has an assignee and I > am not sure if I would be re-doing redundant work that is already done.

Who takes a dig at someone must be able to take stick. Perhaps it's possible to fix mutter faster than Canonical. Why not crowdfund a fix fast and sell it to Canonical later?

Is this really true? Is it a security issue? Are you not able to use the desktop because of this bug? IMHO it's just a minor issue causing an annoying graphics design. I even would never have taken notice of the bug on my system if not a forum user of https://ubuntuusers.de/ asked for help there. How many users do experience this bug? > As I said, it is extremely embarrassing. Defending bad software design is > even more embarrassing.

OK, packages in universe repo should be free of critical bugs. But as we all know, bugs are phenomena in software engineering, that can occur due to human nature of programmers. Nobody's perfect thus no human work is ever perfect. I'm very sure there are good reasons for the delay. My guess is simply there's not enough manpower in regard to the severity of the mutter bug. Software engineering is a very time consuming task and good code doesn't come from heaven. If you are skilled enough to contribute code, why don't you help but instead complain?

This tendency is childish. If you want warranted security with fast(?) bug fixing, look out for a proprietary OS solution or better contribute to Ubuntu by coding support. Please stop behaving like a child: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_ain't_no_such_thing_as_a_free_lunch If you want freedom of choice, you should better get along with the implications.

I see the same problem, running AMD GPU RX580 and X11 (problem doesn't seem to apper in Wayland). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1892440 Title: Shell text is too small in mutter 3.36.4-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1892440/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
