[Bug 382703] Re: "Home Folder" has 3 different names

2010-12-04 Thread bdoe
What about just calling it "My Home"? Sure, it's a bit Windows-esque, but it's a concept the widest audience is already familiar with, does away with the question of using User Name vs. username, has no translation issues, still lends a personal feel to the desktop experience, and can be consistent

I don't know if it's too late to add my own two cents -- if so, then it's free. :p When I first switched to Linux two years ago, the idea of the home directory kinda threw me as well, but then Windows Vista ran with the concept. Now, I don't have a lot of good things to say about Vista, but one th

Nominating for Gnome-Desktop, since this issue appears to be system-wide throughout Gnome. With "Play Alert Sound" enabled in Preferences -> Sound, ALL applications that generate an alert causes the system beep to be used instead of the user-defined alert sound, even if the chosen sound is valid.

I had this problem as well. However, when I went into Preferences in CCSM and reset all settings back to default, PrtSc worked again. I then went through and individually changed each Compiz plugin settings back to the way I wanted them, which includes the Desktop Cube, and PrtSc still works. I ha

Wasn't easy, because any time I tried to browse for or do a search using "Evolution" as a keyword, the site would roll over and die, giving me a blank page... so I don't know if a bug report already existed, but I filed one anyways: Bug # 582586 ( http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582586 )

I would like to re-open the bug based on image-loading performance with Evolution 2.26.1 with Jaunty. The image rendering itself isn't a problem; it's the fact that Evolution only retrieves one single image at a time. When you consider the overhead of contacting the remote server, waiting for a res

I figured out it may have to do with how the PDF file was created. In the attachment, none of the links are activated - meaning, the mouse pointer does not change when I hover over the link, and the link is not clickable. I re-created page 3 of the first attachment using OpenOffice's "Export to PD
