Yes... It is truly a mess in the way that we do not know how to report a bug
of gdm if we do not find it in memory

Karmic Kernel Source throwing error when building v4l-dvb

2009-10-05 Thread Andrew Barbaccia
I'm trying to build the v4l-dvb tree. I believe my build environment is
setup correctly as I have installed build-essential, linux-headers and
linux-source. I have extracted the source, linked to /usr/src/linux and did
the whole make oldconfig thing.

During the build I get errors like these:

make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-11-generic'

Thanks for noticing this. One nit: Please provide bug ids next to
such statements in future so we don't have to hunt this down.

The bit cumbersome part of this was that you got redirected to the wiki page so
you couldn't just append it to the current URL in your browser ...

Well, I am not a graphics guy, so I can't comment on the graphics. 


Regarding the text:


1. Regarding the Firefox slide, I think the phrase "widely acclaimed"
should be omitted, because people tastes about web browsers vary. 

Also I think the phrase "thousands of themes and Add ons" is inaccurate.

In addition, the original phrase "Firefox keeps you safe by blocking
pop-ups and warning about malware" is better than what is used here.


Thus, I think the text should become something like:



Browse the web with Firefox

  * Ubuntu comes with the popular Firefox 3.5 web browser.

  * Firefox keeps you safe by blocking pop-ups and warning about
malware.

  * You can choose from a wide variety of themes and add-ons that
adapt Firefox to your personal taste and requirements.

  * Other web browsers are also available for installation.





2. Regarding the OpenOffice.org slide, I think the text:

"
  * OpenOffice.org is a powerful office software suite that is very
easy to learn.

  * It is useful to create letters, presentations and spreadsheets,
as well as diagrams and databases.

  * Compatibility will not be a concern. OpenOffice.org can open and
save documents for all the popular office applications including
WordPerfect and Microsoft Office. It uses the ISO standard
OpenDocument format by default".



should become something like:


  * OpenOffice.org is a powerful office software suite that is very  
easy to learn. It uses the widely accepted OpenDocument format,
which is defined by an international standard.

OpenOffice.org can also create PDF documents.

  * OpenOffice.org is useful to create letters, presentations and
spreadsheets, as well as diagrams and databases. 

  * Compatibility will not be a concern. OpenOffice.org can open and
save documents for all the popular office applications including
Microsoft Office and Corel WordPerfect".


Regarding accessibility, I have no knowledge of this area.


Regarding Software Center, I have objections about the text it uses (and
not about the slide), and I filed them as a bug, under the subject 

"Software Center should not use the word "Free Software"".



That's it. I have to mention that apart from the Firefox text, I have no
access to the current text of the slides, so as to compare with your
provided ones, and I commented based only on your slides.
