Sorry for getting off-topic. I just cannot stay calm reading everywhere that Ubuntu gets ruined. Me too, I liked it out-of-the-box from Breezy to Jaunty. For Natty I recommend the following 5 commands, and if anyone knows a cheap way to bring back tooltips, please share it! Hope this helps to keep skilled people from leaving Ubuntu.
sudo apt-get install gdebi synaptic gtkperf ttf-droid sudo apt-get remove unity-common ubuntuone-client overlay-scrollbar sudo sh -c "echo >/etc/X11/Xsession.d/99disable-overlay-scrollbars 'export LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0'" gconftool-2 --set --type string /desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager gnome-wm cat <<EOF >>~/.gtkrc-2.0 style "default-style" { GtkWindow::resize-grip-height = 0 GtkWindow::resize-grip-width = 0 } class "GtkWidget" style "default-style" EOF And note that Gnome theme "Dust Sand" with font "Droid" is about 50% faster than Nattys default (according to gtkperf). PS: I don't like aubergines either. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527458 Title: please include status messages/tooltips To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-application/+bug/527458/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
