@nUboon2Age: Hi , I would argue that this is a bug and not a usability issue
"per-se" .
Yes it is troubling for a new user when stuff doesnt work out of the box. I
dont disagree with that.
But if this bug a usability bug , wouldn't that mean any hardware not being
detected is a usability issue?
You said that "Jockey fails in various ways". Can you explain how,
please?

@Vish, thank you for your response, but none of that info explains how
we should address an Ubuntu User Experience bug, which we both know is
different than writing a regular technical bug. It sounds like you are

@NUboon2Age : Seems like you are new to launchpad , the branch linking
and tagging other usability projects for a bug report is not the right

Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut
should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu install, that
affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be
addressed as part of this project.
