Public bug reported: Binary package hint: unity
Steps to reproduce: - Start Firefox, download something (big) eg. http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/natty-desktop-amd64.iso The firefoxs download window comes up and displays the progress of the download - Close the main Firefox window. The download window stays open and the download continues. - Lets say you want to surf on the Internet again: Click on the Firefox icon on the unity launcher. What I expect to happen: - the main firefox window comes up and I can browse the web parallel to the running download. What happened instead: - nothing, no firefox window comes up. The downloads window gets focused and thats it. Workaround in this situation: - right click on the firefox icon and open a new window --- This in not intuitive!! (even when you know that you can right-click on an icon) I don't want a __NEW__ window, I just want to use Firefox. Thoughts: Unity does not get the "difference" between a "normal" Firefox window and the downloads window. Additional informations: I use ubuntu natty beta1 + updates unity 3.8.6-0ubuntu1 ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/760437 Title: Can't start firefox when a download is in progress -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
