[Bug 385850] Re: Ship fewer screensavers by default

2009-06-19 Thread nitindb
Screensavers are a complete waste of space and just a legacy of the CRT
era.  Just one additional variable that can cause problems PC.  I'd be
happy if there was just 5 simple screensavers.  As DavidCOG pointed out,
its also a wastage of CPU and thus not very 'green'.  Every little bit
counts!

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-19 Thread nitindb
I like the solution provided by soliac.  I agree that no other items in
the right-click menu which have it, but there are many items in the edit
menu which do not mention any shortcut keys at all, so I don't think
there is any rule we need to follow.  The right-click menu can
selectively mention a couple of keyboard shortcuts which are often used
and for whom the shortcut might not be known.

Sorry, please ignore the first sentence of my previous message. I meant
that I agreed with 'jango' not soliac.  The select and then click to
rename can get annoying after a while when you often end up entering
rename mode by mistake...especially if you are using a touchpad not
mouse.

2009-06-22 Thread nitindb
If we look at various UI operations as layers of importance.  In
windows, why is changing the name of a file made almost as easy as
opening a file.  Is it such a priority task that we are willing to
accept the potential mistakes that can occur?

Even if we feel that the benefits of making Windows folk feel at home is
worth the potential annoyances faced by Non-windows people, then at
least there should be an option to disable this 'feature'.

I find the window's rename mode to be more of an issue when using a
laptop with touchpad rather than a mouse  On a small netbook or a
smaller laptop, it would be even more irritating.  Not everyone sits on
a desk using a mouse.

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-26 Thread nitindb
In Nautilus I would like to see an option under Edit -> Preferences ->
Behaviour which would allow us to either turn off the '2nd click rename'
or turn it on.  There is room for adding this option and if,
implimented, this drastic change of behavior does warrant a preferences
menu entry, in my opinion.  If this menu is too crowded, is it possible
to remove the option for 'always open in browser windows'?  Is there any
reason why anyone would want to have a new window open every time you
double click a directory, particularly when gnome now has tabbed
windows?

If 2nd click rename is the default behavior in Windows and OS X, lets
get it happening in Gnome, but give us an option to turn it off. Or lets
not implement it at all.  But I am not in favor of any half-measures.
Either do it fully, and properly but give an option to completely turn
it off, or not do it at all.

[Bug 388859] Re: The 'Create Folder' option in the right click menu is too easily selected by mistake.

2009-06-26 Thread nitindb
I see this as a 'paper cut' because its a usability issue that can
easily be fixed.  For example, If I were to right-click on a webpage
inside Firefox, it does not cause any problems because the mouse pointer
is not automatically selecting something from the menu.  But if I was to
right-click anywhere in nautilus or on my desktop, the 'create folder'
or 'properties' is automatically selected.  So it is very easy to click
it by mistake, especially if you have a bit of a sticky mouse button.

 I like the way its done in firefox; there is an initial gap between the
mouse pointer and the right-click menu.

There would be a lot of people who have input hardware which is slightly
sticky.  Moreover, you don't even need the mouse to be buggyit
depends on the firmness of the button.  Not everyone uses a standard
Logitech or Microsoft mouse.  There are a whole range of mice out there
with different quality of buttons.  Ubuntu/Gnome/Nautilus should be
designed according to what people use, not what they 'should' use.
Plus I don't have this problem when doing a right-click within web pages
in firefox, so it is something that can easily be fixed.

My mouse is an Evoluent Vertical mouse which cost me over £60.  Its an
ergonomic mouse which is very expensive to replace.  When click right
mouse button, why should an item from the menu be already highlighted?

I have checked with Windows XP and KDE and neither have this issue; when
right clicking, nothing is automatically highlighted and ready for
selection.  So I believe this to be a gnome specific issue which does
not provide any benefit to the end user, but can be an annoyance.  It is
wrong to assume that everyone would be using brand new input devices.

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-28 Thread nitindb
@J Nice idea.
It would only really work if the panel is available.  Without the panel, would 
we just go back to the way its been done previously?  I like the idea of 
displaying the information in the left panel, it would make make the panel much 
more useful.  

@Cheiron Again a good idea.
But a balance would need to be reached between the size of the target.  If its 
too small, it could be very irritating; if its too large, it could get in the 
way and lead to clicking by mistake.

@ Everyone
I personally like the information panel idea, as it nicely separates the tasks 
of editing and browsing folders.  Its most definitely the 'gnome way' of doing 
things.  Gnome at its heart is a minimalist DE, and thats what I like; it 
doesn't try to be too flashy.  Those coming from windows may not actually want 
more of the same.  If they are moving away from windows, they want better, and 
smarter solutions.

These new ideas could lead to a long drawn out debate, and I just hope
that we are able to see something concrete in time for Karmic.  Is there
anything that can be done, which is fast, does not require much work,
and would not run the risk of creating more bugs?  Can someone, with
better knowledge, give us an idea of which of the ideas would be the
quickest to implement and which would take the longest and whether any
of the ideas could make it for at least Karmic +1?  I'd guess that
adding F2, next to rename folder, in the right-click menu, would be the
quickest? What about the others?

Just click the right mouse button in Windows, KDE or Openbox and this

not tried Apple OSX or XFCE environments, however.  This is actually
only a problem with Gnome.  If you try this in firefox, it doesn't

It could be an extension causing this problem, as I see that you've
installed some 'experimental' add-ons such as FasterFox etc.  I don't
think FasterFox extension is compatible with Firefox 3.0. Maybe you
should create a new profile and remove extensions and see if that makes
any difference.

[Bug 385789] [NEW] Jaunty powered-off (shutdown) for no apparent reason [open apps: Netbeans 6.5.1, Firefox 3.0.10 and Evolution]

2009-06-10 Thread nitindb
Public bug reported:

I was running Firefox while installing Netbeans 6.5.1 and JavaFX 1.2 SDK. Once 
installation completed and I was running Netbeans.  After a few minutes, my 
laptop powered-off (shutdown) by itself, for no apparent reason.  Once 
rebooted, everything seems to be working fine.  I have not tried start Netbeans 
since.
I'd done a fresh installation of Jaunty a few days earlier where the / 
partition was formatted as Ext4, and the /home partition was formatted as Ext3.

Screensavers are a complete waste of space and just a legacy of the CRT

I like the solution provided by soliac.  I agree that no other items in
the right-click menu which have it, but there are many items in the edit
menu which do not mention any shortcut keys at all, so I don't think
there is any rule we need to follow.  The right-click menu can
selectively mention a couple of keyboard shortcuts which are often used
and for whom the shortcut might not be known.

If we look at various UI operations as layers of importance.  In
windows, why is changing the name of a file made almost as easy as
opening a file.  Is it such a priority task that we are willing to
accept the potential mistakes that can occur?

Even if we feel that the benefits of making Windows folk feel at home is
worth the potential annoyances faced by Non-windows people, then at
least there should be an option to disable this 'feature'.

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-26 Thread nitindb
In Nautilus I would like to see an option under Edit -> Preferences ->
Behaviour which would allow us to either turn off the '2nd click rename'
or turn it on.  There is room for adding this option and if,
implimented, this drastic change of behavior does warrant a preferences
menu entry, in my opinion.  If this menu is too crowded, is it possible
to remove the option for 'always open in browser windows'?  Is there any
reason why anyone would want to have a new window open every time you
double click a directory, particularly when gnome now has tabbed
windows?

If 2nd click rename is the default behavior in Windows and OS X, lets
get it happening in Gnome, but give us an option to turn it off. Or lets
not implement it at all.  But I am not in favor of any half-measures.
Either do it fully, and properly but give an option to completely turn
it off, or not do it at all.

[Bug 388859] Re: The 'Create Folder' option in the right click menu is too easily selected by mistake.

2009-06-26 Thread nitindb
I see this as a 'paper cut' because its a usability issue that can
easily be fixed.  For example, If I were to right-click on a webpage
inside Firefox, it does not cause any problems because the mouse pointer
is not automatically selecting something from the menu.  But if I was to
right-click anywhere in nautilus or on my desktop, the 'create folder'
or 'properties' is automatically selected.  So it is very easy to click
it by mistake, especially if you have a bit of a sticky mouse button.

 I like the way its done in firefox; there is an initial gap between the
mouse pointer and the right-click menu.

There would be a lot of people who have input hardware which is slightly
sticky.  Moreover, you don't even need the mouse to be buggyit
depends on the firmness of the button.  Not everyone uses a standard
Logitech or Microsoft mouse.  There are a whole range of mice out there
with different quality of buttons.  Ubuntu/Gnome/Nautilus should be
designed according to what people use, not what they 'should' use.
Plus I don't have this problem when doing a right-click within web pages
in firefox, so it is something that can easily be fixed.

My mouse is an Evoluent Vertical mouse which cost me over £60.  Its an
ergonomic mouse which is very expensive to replace.  When click right
mouse button, why should an item from the menu be already highlighted?

I have checked with Windows XP and KDE and neither have this issue; when
right clicking, nothing is automatically highlighted and ready for
selection.  So I believe this to be a gnome specific issue which does
not provide any benefit to the end user, but can be an annoyance.  It is
wrong to assume that everyone would be using brand new input devices.

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-28 Thread nitindb
@J Nice idea.
It would only really work if the panel is available.  Without the panel, would 
we just go back to the way its been done previously?  I like the idea of 
displaying the information in the left panel, it would make make the panel much 
more useful.  

@Cheiron Again a good idea.
But a balance would need to be reached between the size of the target.  If its 
too small, it could be very irritating; if its too large, it could get in the 
way and lead to clicking by mistake.

@ Everyone
I personally like the information panel idea, as it nicely separates the tasks 
of editing and browsing folders.  Its most definitely the 'gnome way' of doing 
things.  Gnome at its heart is a minimalist DE, and thats what I like; it 
doesn't try to be too flashy.  Those coming from windows may not actually want 
more of the same.  If they are moving away from windows, they want better, and 
smarter solutions.

These new ideas could lead to a long drawn out debate, and I just hope
that we are able to see something concrete in time for Karmic.  Is there
anything that can be done, which is fast, does not require much work,
and would not run the risk of creating more bugs?  Can someone, with
better knowledge, give us an idea of which of the ideas would be the
quickest to implement and which would take the longest and whether any
of the ideas could make it for at least Karmic +1?  I'd guess that
adding F2, next to rename folder, in the right-click menu, would be the
quickest? What about the others?

Screensavers are a complete waste of space and just a legacy of the CRT

happy if there was just 5 simple screensavers.  As DavidCOG pointed out,
its also a wastage of CPU and thus not very 'green'.  Every little bit

2009-06-19 Thread nitindb
I like the solution provided by soliac.  I agree that no other items in
the right-click menu which have it, but there are many items in the edit
menu which do not mention any shortcut keys at all, so I don't think
there is any rule we need to follow.  The right-click menu can
selectively mention a couple of keyboard shortcuts which are often used
and for whom the shortcut might not be known.

If we look at various UI operations as layers of importance.  In
windows, why is changing the name of a file made almost as easy as
opening a file.  Is it such a priority task that we are willing to
accept the potential mistakes that can occur?

Even if we feel that the benefits of making Windows folk feel at home is
worth the potential annoyances faced by Non-windows people, then at
least there should be an option to disable this 'feature'.

I find the window's rename mode to be more of an issue when using a

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-26 Thread nitindb
In Nautilus I would like to see an option under Edit -> Preferences ->
Behaviour which would allow us to either turn off the '2nd click rename'
or turn it on.  There is room for adding this option and if,
implimented, this drastic change of behavior does warrant a preferences
menu entry, in my opinion.  If this menu is too crowded, is it possible
to remove the option for 'always open in browser windows'?  Is there any
reason why anyone would want to have a new window open every time you
double click a directory, particularly when gnome now has tabbed
windows?

If 2nd click rename is the default behavior in Windows and OS X, lets
get it happening in Gnome, but give us an option to turn it off. Or lets
not implement it at all.  But I am not in favor of any half-measures.
Either do it fully, and properly but give an option to completely turn
it off, or not do it at all.

[Bug 388859] Re: The 'Create Folder' option in the right click menu is too easily selected by mistake.

2009-06-26 Thread nitindb
I see this as a 'paper cut' because its a usability issue that can
easily be fixed.  For example, If I were to right-click on a webpage
inside Firefox, it does not cause any problems because the mouse pointer
is not automatically selecting something from the menu.  But if I was to
right-click anywhere in nautilus or on my desktop, the 'create folder'
or 'properties' is automatically selected.  So it is very easy to click
it by mistake, especially if you have a bit of a sticky mouse button.

 I like the way its done in firefox; there is an initial gap between the
mouse pointer and the right-click menu.

There would be a lot of people who have input hardware which is slightly
sticky.  Moreover, you don't even need the mouse to be buggyit
depends on the firmness of the button.  Not everyone uses a standard
Logitech or Microsoft mouse.  There are a whole range of mice out there
with different quality of buttons.  Ubuntu/Gnome/Nautilus should be
designed according to what people use, not what they 'should' use.
Plus I don't have this problem when doing a right-click within web pages
in firefox, so it is something that can easily be fixed.

My mouse is an Evoluent Vertical mouse which cost me over £60.  Its an
ergonomic mouse which is very expensive to replace.  When click right
mouse button, why should an item from the menu be already highlighted?

I have checked with Windows XP and KDE and neither have this issue; when
right clicking, nothing is automatically highlighted and ready for
selection.  So I believe this to be a gnome specific issue which does
not provide any benefit to the end user, but can be an annoyance.  It is
wrong to assume that everyone would be using brand new input devices.

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-28 Thread nitindb
@J Nice idea.
It would only really work if the panel is available.  Without the panel, would 
we just go back to the way its been done previously?  I like the idea of 
displaying the information in the left panel, it would make make the panel much 
more useful.  

@Cheiron Again a good idea.
But a balance would need to be reached between the size of the target.  If its 
too small, it could be very irritating; if its too large, it could get in the 
way and lead to clicking by mistake.

@ Everyone
I personally like the information panel idea, as it nicely separates the tasks 
of editing and browsing folders.  Its most definitely the 'gnome way' of doing 
things.  Gnome at its heart is a minimalist DE, and thats what I like; it 
doesn't try to be too flashy.  Those coming from windows may not actually want 
more of the same.  If they are moving away from windows, they want better, and 
smarter solutions.

These new ideas could lead to a long drawn out debate, and I just hope
that we are able to see something concrete in time for Karmic.  Is there
anything that can be done, which is fast, does not require much work,
and would not run the risk of creating more bugs?  Can someone, with
better knowledge, give us an idea of which of the ideas would be the
quickest to implement and which would take the longest and whether any
of the ideas could make it for at least Karmic +1?  I'd guess that
adding F2, next to rename folder, in the right-click menu, would be the
quickest? What about the others?

Just click the right mouse button in Windows, KDE or Openbox and this

not tried Apple OSX or XFCE environments, however.  This is actually
only a problem with Gnome.  If you try this in firefox, it doesn't

2008-08-17 Thread nitindb
Hi,
Many thanks for getting back to me.  Where do I find
the .xsession-errors file?  I tried waiting but made no difference.
Recently I am finding that the problem is happening all the more often.

Kind regards,

Nitin

[Bug 257506] [NEW] Panel items occasionally do not display after log-in.

2008-08-12 Thread nitindb
Public bug reported:

I have been using Ubuntu 8.04 since the last month or so on a Dell 1526
Laptop with 2GB of Ram and ATI Graphics.  Occasionally after login, the
bottom panel and sometimes the top panel do not display any items.  This
is usually fixed by logging out and logging in again.

The problem has resolved after a re-installation and update.  I no
longer face this problem.

[Bug 385850] Re: Ship fewer screensavers by default

2009-06-19 Thread nitindb
Screensavers are a complete waste of space and just a legacy of the CRT
era.  Just one additional variable that can cause problems PC.  I'd be
happy if there was just 5 simple screensavers.  As DavidCOG pointed out,
its also a wastage of CPU and thus not very 'green'.  Every little bit
counts!

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-19 Thread nitindb
I like the solution provided by soliac.  I agree that no other items in
the right-click menu which have it, but there are many items in the edit
menu which do not mention any shortcut keys at all, so I don't think
there is any rule we need to follow.  The right-click menu can
selectively mention a couple of keyboard shortcuts which are often used
and for whom the shortcut might not be known.

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-19 Thread nitindb
Sorry, please ignore the first sentence of my previous message. I meant
that I agreed with 'jango' not soliac.  The select and then click to
rename can get annoying after a while when you often end up entering
rename mode by mistake...especially if you are using a touchpad not
mouse.

[Bug 48671] Re: Cannot rename by clicking on a file

2009-06-22 Thread nitindb
If we look at various UI operations as layers of importance.  In
windows, why is changing the name of a file made almost as easy as
opening a file.  Is it such a priority task that we are willing to
accept the potential mistakes that can occur?

Even if we feel that the benefits of making Windows folk feel at home is
worth the potential annoyances faced by Non-windows people, then at
least there should be an option to disable this 'feature'.

[Bug 385789] [NEW] Jaunty powered-off (shutdown) for no apparent reason [open apps: Netbeans 6.5.1, Firefox 3.0.10 and Evolution]

2009-06-10 Thread nitindb
Public bug reported:

I was running Firefox while installing Netbeans 6.5.1 and JavaFX 1.2 SDK. Once 
installation completed and I was running Netbeans.  After a few minutes, my 
laptop powered-off (shutdown) by itself, for no apparent reason.  Once 
rebooted, everything seems to be working fine.  I have not tried start Netbeans 
since.
I'd done a fresh installation of Jaunty a few days earlier where the / 
partition was formatted as Ext4, and the /home partition was formatted as Ext3.

Ubuntu release: Jaunty 9.04
