The Ubuntu side of this bug: If a computer is affected then a) in roughly 10% of the boots, there is not way to Shut Down or Log Out the computer for a Newbie - actually to find a workaround you basically need a working internet connection. b) considering a) no responsible person would ever install Ubuntu on a Newbies computer. Imagine your mum, oncle, grandfather not being able to shut down the computer in 10% of the cases.
The Ubuntu-side of the bug is to have removed the shutdown/log-out options from the normal Menu/System despite the fact that the panel applets are not reliable for many, many users. Not being able to shutdown/log out is a serious thing! Better to have two options to do this than only have one (non-reliable) option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439448 Title: Visual corruption affecting several panel applets -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
