[Bug 1028151] Re: Samsung Laptops brightness control issue (heavy flickering)

2012-08-11 Thread Kevin McCaughey
As of AUGUST 2012 and after 6 months, this is still a bug and has not
been patched.

This means that Ubuntu 12.04 FAILS on the Samsung NC10, an extremely
popular netbook which has millions of users.

If Ubuntu want non-technical users to switch to their operating system
then show-stopping fatal bugs like this need to be patched.

[Bug 980917] Re: Failed to create pty - disabling logging for job

2012-04-30 Thread Kevin McCaughey
The behaviour seems wrong to me - I believe it needs to be changed so
that it follows the previous expected (and acceptable) model. As a bit
of a metaphor, if Toyota released a new car but all the new cars had a
red warning light on them and Toyota's fix was You all have to press a
button in the boot and cover the warning light with tape there would be
an uproar.

Really, I think this needs to be fixed at the system end rather than
hundreds of thousands of fixes being applied at the user end.
