Howdy, I wrote an article for my local computer users group on customizing Ubuntu to make it more pleasant to use. Some of these changes, such as fixing the global menu really make a huge difference. If there is a tweak program in place, I could add some of my fixes(my term), if the maintainer

What exactly did you do to make compiz freeze like that? Ubuntu-Tweak itself only changes options that exist with Compiz (as would changing the options via gconf-editor). If compiz froze, it is a problem with Compiz, not with Ubuntu-Tweak. Again, we can simply fix it where it is broken,

Subject: Re: [Ayatana] Ubuntu Tweak If Ubuntu-Tweak is broken in that manner, then why don't we fix it and include it. I still don't see how your arguments against inclusion are truly valid. For one thing, we can disable the Computer Janitor plugin by default. Furthermore

I think the theory here is that users who want to do it generally know (or can find out) how to install these tools, and those who could break something won't have the option visible. -- Ian Santopietro Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments. See

I respectfully disagree. The options that can be tweaked from Ubuntu Tweak and similar tools (concerning Unity) will not break anything, and for the most part can be changed on the fly (without restarting that is). There is no reason not to include such a tool by default. On 12/14/2011 05:00
