[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2060223] [NEW] Nautilus slowness when expanding/collapsing folders
Public bug reported: In the recent two days I noticed a slowness in Nautilus while trying to expand a folder in the List View. When I click on the icon which expands a folder, then it is written "Loading..." beneath the folder and after about 3 seconds then the list appears. Also when trying to "collapse" the expanded folder, then the effect happens only after few seconds (takes way too much time). Ubuntu version: 22.04.4. Using nvidia-driver-535 (proprietary, tested). $ nautilus --version GNOME nautilus 42.6 ** Affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2060223 Title: Nautilus slowness when expanding/collapsing folders Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In the recent two days I noticed a slowness in Nautilus while trying to expand a folder in the List View.

Moving the bug report to the package "xkeyboard-config", because I already have an additional bug report with a similar issue and someone there commented that it should be moved to package "xkeyboard-config" - please see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xkeyboard-config/+bug/2003581/comments/2 ** Package changed: ubuntu => xkeyboard-config (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2003579 Title: Simulating Secondary mouse key fails Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I want to simulate the secondary mouse button via the keyboard. (By clicking the secondary mouse button, then normally a menu appears.) So, I opened the Accessibility menu and enabled the option "Mouse Keys".

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1983778] Re: Major security issue in Ubuntu Desktop default config - Removable Media
Hey @Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur) , I appreciate your reply, but please consider the following: Reason #1: Having that pop-up screen easily allows to perform the execution of a software. Imagine, for example, a malicious person in a College or some other public place - quickly inserting a USB device to a briefly unattended laptop and quickly clicking "Run" on the warning dialog. These things may happen! I've witnessed students conspire to do that! Why would Ubuntu make it so easy for people to execute software automatically? Reason #2: In the security aspect, the default approach should be to avoid any execution of software, or at least make it more difficult. Automatic execution of software which is in a USB drive is considered a bad practice and is outdated. Reason #3 I think that most people don't use an automatic execution of software. Thus, why would Ubuntu even allow it to happen so easily? Any person who use automatic execution could configure the appropriate configs. But there is no reason for it to be allowed by default. --- Bottom line, we are in an era where all options for Removable Media should be "Do nothing" and the tickbox of "Never prompt or start programs on media insertion" should be ticked. The user has the option to change these configs. Preferably, only admin (verified with password) is allowed to change these configs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1983778 Title: Major security issue in Ubuntu Desktop default config - Removable Media Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: There is a MAJOR SECURITY VULNERABILITY in Ubuntu Desktop since release 18.04 !
