I don't mean to be offensive but that is the solution that one would need if one were to suggest that a user move to a better supported distro or commercial OS.
Firstly compiz isn't just eye candy it is tremendously useful for productivity (read: switcher and scale), secondly insisting that the user disable grabbing to use gksu(do) IS a security issue because malware could eavesdrop on the keyboard communication and capture the password. Thirdly offering an upgrade to a new and freshly bug ridden release is not exactly what someone who uses Ubuntu for business needs to hear. Believe it or not some professional sys admins and administrators actually need to test things before jumping in. If Microsoft stated that they would NOT fix an issue in XP because Vista is out there would be villagers with pitchforks and torches at their gates. My part of the bargain with Ubuntu is to be an active member of my loco (I am) to contribute financially to the project (I do) and to evangelize the OS to my colleagues and people I know (I do this to). The dev & motu teams part is to actually fix problems in currently supported versions and not just live for next release cycle. If I had the talent I would fix the problem myself. If I have to fix every problem myself Canonical can save a ton of cash by shutting launchpad down. Either we work to fix bugs or we don't. -- Compiz freezes on gksu screen grab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141405 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
