[Bug 285401] Re: Enhancment request, compact headers on evolution message preview pane
It's the same problem Thunderbird has: information is shown in the header which does not bring anything new, at least that's my opinion. Just look at the text in the header. What does it say extra that is not already in the list of e-mails you have just above, or next to it? From - look in field from in e-mail list To - obviously me, but could be more people, look in field To in e-mail list Subject - see Subject in e-mail list Date - same here. So, why not completely forget about the header and give more space for either the e-mail list or the contents of the opened message? Especially on the new wide-screen monitors this would be very handy. Keep the window boundary to separate mail list from preview window and that's it. Erase the big grey area. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285401 Title: Enhancment request, compact headers on evolution message preview pane To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/285401/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
Re: [Bug 420904] Re: File-roller makes computer unresponsive
Hi Pedro, The answer to your question is yes and no. I don't see any changes in Karmic with respect to Jaunty, the speed is (about) the same. What I did notice is this: It is not the processor which determines the speed with which File-roller operates, it is the harddisk. The data throughput of the disk reaches the disks maximum. More data can not be handled at the same time. I now have Jaunty installed on 2 disks in a RAID 0 configuration which means that each disk reads and writes half of the amount of data being processed. Now File-roller is faster and also the computer is more responsive to other processes. File-roller does not reach the maximum data-throughput of the two disks being mounted in parallel. I don't use Karmic anymore since I have some other problems with it. I know I should report them and I will do that. Just give me time. If something can be done to improve the speed even more it would be very welcome, on the other hand it has improved already by putting the disks in RAID 0.

Re: [Bug 420904] Re: File-roller makes computer unresponsive
Hi, Thanks for answering upon my bug report. I'll try to answer the questions as well as possible. Yes, it is reproducible. It happens every time when I want to unrar a row of joined rar files (xxx1.rar, xxx2.rar, , xxxn.rar, but also with xxx.rar, xxx.r01, xxx.r02, ... , xxx.r0n). The cpu load is not extremely high, 20% per core is about it, but the PC is unresponsive as if something else is holding it back. As I wrote it happens every time, so according to this it should be easy to reproduce. Others, on the Ubuntu forum (Forum thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1252109), claim their PC's do not do it so I wonder if it is my hardware which is causing it. Maybe in combination with the software, I don't know. On September 26, 2008 I also started a thread on the Ubuntu forums, a link is found here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=930373 . There you find others as well with the same problem. As I wrote in the initial report I had the same problems in Hardy 8.04. That was probably a different version of the File-roller. What is the same is the PC itself. Thanks again for looking into it. I sure hope you find a solution, for me and for all the others having the same problems.
