Bryan, you asked for thoughts. Don't shoot the messenger! :) In part my objection is that the proposed messages have not just been dumbed down and convey less information, they're actually wrong. As you know, CDs contain streams of bits, they don't have any inherent "bitness". Media doesn't require a 64-bit cpu. You surely don't want naive users going to a shop and saying I want a pack of 32-bit blank CDs instead of these 64-bit ones.
Are the current messages a real problem? In other words, instead of some experienced users thinking they MAY be a problem, has this repeatedly come up as a show-stopper in actual usability testing? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272087 Title: 64 bit Ubuntu cd on 32 bit system: more helpful error message To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gfxboot/+bug/272087/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
