This is not a valid bug, more a list of suggestions. Please create independent bugs (they might already exist) and blueprints for those issues. The name of the bug should also be changed, it is sexist. Marking as invalid. ** Changed in: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid **

Manipulation of the graphical/viewing settings from the GUI should not leave a user stranded! This is the holy grail of comfort and confidence in your GUI/OS. The above issue with the screen resolution dialogue should most definitely be classed as a bug/oversight. I have experienced this issue,

I'm confused as to why "Make sure that the screen resolution can be changed even at very low screen resolutions." isn't something that can be considered a bug. Try what he says and tell me how you get back to the main resolution easily: "Ninth Task: Change screen resolution. This was easy from th

This isn't itself a bug, it is rather a metabug listing other issues. Let's file separate bugs for each, and link them here for convenience. It's unfortunate that launchpad doesn't seem to support a "this bug depends on bug x" feature like bugzilla has. Regarding youtube: probably the easiest fix

In my opinion this isn't a bug. It's just the result of one (!) usability test. The author of the article: "The main issue with the desktop experience is that the geeky programmers and designers assume too much from the average user." User testing is good but he makes a mistake. He assumes that his

This is definitely not a real bug. The only part which can be considered a possible bug is the naming of Transmission's menu entry. From first comment even that seems to have been fixed. -- Ubuntu doesn't pass contentconsumer's "girlfriend test" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223436 You receiv
