[Bug 733349] Re: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon

2013-01-21 Thread P G Lagasse
I also think that some sort of minimize on click should be an option, even if it is not the default setting. This is a common and useful option elsewhere, allowing a user to raise or unminimize a program window and then dismiss it with two mouse clicks and no repositioning of the mouse. It seems l

I have a global inbox, three email addresses, and some 30 filters that sort my email into some 20 folders under my inbox. In Oneiric, the messaging messaging shows all new mail in the inbox and its subfolders, and reports which subfolder the messages are in. That's extremely handy for me. By compa

2012-05-30 Thread P G Lagasse
This was a very annoying and frustrating bug for me and it took quite some searching to find the solution in the forums. I've used Ubuntu since 7.04, have only ever used one workspace, and could figure out what in the world happened when spread stopped working after I installed Unity 5.12. -- You

3rd followup. I did a complete restart of Ubuntu, and for the last 15 mins at least the problem seems to have disappeared. Seems like a restart of firefox alone is not enough. mp3s and flvs play fine; haven't checked everything else yet. played both at once, via r...box and totem with firefox and t

additional info. thunderbird did an add-ons compatibility check upon restart; perhaps t-bird (which also was running) should also have been restarted (along with firefox) after the xulrunner update was installed? -- can't play mp3s or flvs rhythmbox or totem after firefox and xul-runner upgrade h

followup -- I tried ogg and spx files and couldn't play them, either. Went away for a while, came back and tried a radio broadcast in rhythmbox and the first one failed (null was reported); tried a second radio station and it worked. Then went back to the mp3s and tried them and now they work. I do
