I hope they aren't, of course. Yet, of the about 8 bugs I reported over the last two years, only one was fixed - about nine months after reporting. If you want to review: at Launchpad I'm "Traumflug". This gives an impression like "The Ubuntu Team" (whoever this is) is totally overwhelmed with the sheer number of reports - wich isn't neccessarily a bad thing, but isn't encouraging more reports either. I admit I didn't participate in Jaunty testing. Running the alpha Live-CD showed me it wouldn't support my preferred monitor resoluton. In Intrepid, this resolution worked perfectly. This was reported (I think), but this part of Jaunty worked as designed (allow resolutions the monitor hardware suggests, only), and I had to find a workaround. I did this after the release, of course. Later Daniel wrote: > But is your hardware indicative of the common case? IMHO, the only common case on the i386/AMD64 platform is: there is no common case. Seriously: there are millions of combinations of hardware components out there and even if some 0.13% of the computers worldwide happen to have the exactly same hardware, each of the hardware's users will have a different perference on how the box should work. So: There is no common case. Markus - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dipl. Ing.
