Public bug reported: Simply go to System -> Preferences -> About Me and fill out the form as you would normally expect. Type data in the first field, press tab to go to the next field and fill it out, press tab to go to the next field to fill it out, and so on...
There is no "OK" option, or "Apply", or "Finish" or anything like that. There is only a "Close" button and a "Help" button. If you click "Close", all your input is lost. If you click "Help", nothing happens at all. I noticed if I typed my e-mail address into the home field and pressed the Enter key and THEN clicked "Close" that the input was saved. However, when I went back into About Me, the e-mail address had actually been saved as the work e-mail address. ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed -- System -> Prefernces -> About Me does not work https://launchpad.net/bugs/48180 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
