[Bug 569491] [NEW] Default Ubuntu/Google Search Home Page does not Position Cursor on Entry Field
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubufox On the default Home (Start) page shipping with Ubuntu 10.04, the default search page does not automatically position the cursor (active insertion bar) on the text entry box for the search field... AUTOMATICALLY. Note that the page, google.com DOES position the cursor on the text entry field automatically. For this reason, most users end up changing their default Start page to: google.com.simply for that one little feature / benefit. It makes searching so much easier one less click every time! This is robbing Canonical of revenue, by the way. If this could be fixed, I believe most users would leave the default Start page as is to support Canonical / Ubuntu. We all want to help support Ubuntu but not at the cost of usability. Another feature of google.com that the Ubuntu/Google start page does not have is... the quick launch links at the top-left for, "Web Images Videos Maps News Shopping Gmail more ▼" which we've all come to reply on. Couldn't these be added as well? ** Affects: ubufox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Default Ubuntu/Google Search Home Page does not Position Cursor on Entry Field https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569491 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

Public bug reported: Using Ubuntu 10.04 --- in ISO Testing. I did NOT install any proprietary hardware drivers so... The Non-proprietary (Ubuntu's default) video driver eventually switches monitor to a fuzzy mode. I have ATI/AMD video hardware (on a Gateway AMD 64 Phenom 9150e Quad- Core machine). After using the computer for a while... ( maybe an hour or so? ) the monitor "goes to "sleep" for about ONE second, then, it wakes up and all the fonts are "blurry"... It's as if the monitor has switched into a "analog mode"...? ( I am only guessing here. ) As if the PC / OS has told the monitor to switch modes...? ( Again, only guessing here. ) Rebooting doesn't even seem to fix it. I think perhaps power-cycling the monitor AND rebooting the PC... fixes it. I'll try this a update in the comments here.

[Bug 191255] [NEW] Suggestion for Improvement: Why no Prompt Info? GCJ vs. GCJ (using ice tea) vs Sun Java - for Java browsing needs ?
Public bug reported: It's unfortunate that we have to do a Search in the Ubuntu Support Forums to determine which choice to make... It would be NICE if the options -- like Windows always does -- had one listed as -- "(Recommended)". Or, "If you don't know, then pick this one." However, there IS that philosophy of the Open Source Movement -- which I DO strongly support... And we certainly would not want to be accused of "Recommend"ing the Proprietary code over the Open project Would we. HOWEVER, instead of listing one as "Recommended"... Why don't they at least tell it like it is. Explain WHY anyone would pick, each individual item. And include a detailed explanation paragraph right there in the dialog box where I have to select one... For example, * The Java Plug-in, Java SE 6 (proprietary from Sun, superior in functionality and speed) * The Java Plug-in, Java SE 5.0 (proprietary from Sun, older version of Java) * CGJ (free open source, partial subset of an older version of Sun Java) * CGJ using icedtea (free open source, partial subset of an older version of Sun Java, based on an open development kit) NOTES: Sun Java is definitely superior to GNU Java (GCJ) in terms of functionality, compatibility and speed. GCJ is a partial implementation of an older version of Java - it's missing some parts so that not all Java software runs on it, and it's very slow compared to Sun's Java. Ubuntu doesn't include Sun Java by default because it is not 100% free software yet. Sun is in the process of making its Java implementation open source, but some parts have to be rewritten (there are some third- party modules which Sun doesn't have the rights to make open source). Hopefully in the future Sun's Java will be included in Ubuntu and other Linux distributions as the default Java. JCG using Icedtea is simply a version of JCG based on Icedtea -- which is an open version of OpenJDK, based on the original Java Development Kit. ...Or something like that. I have no idea if these descriptions are completely accurate, but the point is to illustrate the IDEA of including some explanation IN THAT DIALOG BOX to give the newbie users (me) some HINT as to which choice we should make. Why would ANYONE select Sun's Java 5.0. for example? I have no idea. Perhaps, also, listing the choices in the ORDER that most users would prefer, based on the needs of MOST users...? ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Suggestion for Improvement: Why no Prompt Info?

[Bug 180882] Opening a NEW WINDOW appears to cause an infinite loop of opening new windows...
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox Opening a NEW WINDOW appears to cause an infinite loop of opening new windows... The New Windows instantly cascade Apparently, opening New Window after New Window forever. I have to click on my "Force a Misbehaving Application to Quit" tool to close Firefox. NOTE: This bug is easy consistently reproduceable. In fact, when I later launch Firefox again If I click "RESTORE previous session" (rather than "Start New Session"), the infinite opening of New Windows will happen again... every time! Feel free to contact me if you need any more info to nail this one down.
