Hello, I just wanted to tell you that most of these bugs were fixed this week. Nice work of you! (Details below).
Only one thing got worse this week. After running an update on Friday the default boot icon and desktop theme changed into something ridiculous. The boot logo went from a balanced and aesthetic one to something using an ugly font and a logo so tiny small that you need an magnifier to see it's the Ubuntu logo. The new desktop theme is dark and unprofessional and the window buttons switched places (really annoying since I just keep on pressing the wrong icon to minimize the window). The new background image is dark, smudged and depressing. I guess Canonical is playing with us. They now switched to the ugliest theme they could find so that just before the final release they can switch back to earlier, light white/grey theme and amaze us with how beautiful and clear it is, right? :) > > launching the Desktop Cd..

Actually, now the icon seems to have been fixed. Still, running the scroll wheel over the icon does not increase/decrease the volume as the applet in 9.10 did. I'll test on another machine and possible file a bug. -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
