Hi,

As for a priority, if I were you, I'd make it low priority to put it back in, 
as the newer Mac users have Mac OSes which probably work just fine for them and 
might be jumping on the Lubuntu bandwagon too soon.  And Mac laptops make up 
the majority of new sales anyway. All new Macs for the past few years have 
Bluetooth and wireless standard, Mac user would expect the Bluetooth to work in 
any OS they may move to. 

And there are all sorts of phones and printers and the like that are Bluetooth, 
you'd really would want it someday I think, just as long as Bluetooth isn't a 
big drain on the OS.

More important to me would be printing, I've had to manually add CUPS printing 
to my installs just so I can print.
Why aren't printing services enabled by default?


 

Sincerely,
Paul Gorski

Subject: [Lubuntu-qa] Blue tooth and Macs


Hi Boss,


I know we dropped bluetooth from 12.04 for i686 & amd64 due to lack of need. It 
appears blue tooth is much more used in the Mac world (some of them come with 
blue tooth keyboard & mouse with wired ones an optional extra, for example). 
I'm hopeful it is not a case of asking for a Feature Freeze exception, but 
simply putting blue tooth back into mac build iso's?


They have tried manually adding it back in, but it really does not function at 
all well with pcmanfm when they do. Is it possible to get in by default for 
them as the Mac ISO's have their own list of packages to be installed so that 
they can see if it is a pcmanfm problem. If you need a bug raising to support 
this, I'm sure they will do so.


thanks,


Phill.
