This kind of bugs are the sensible proof of why Linux is not yet a replacement for Windows or OSX.
Can't Ubuntu fork it? The reasons we need such settings button: 1. "I'll gift you a book, but you are not allowed to read it" Ubuntu came with CUSTOMIZABLE screensavers but with no way to access how to configure them. So why you made something that is not being to be used? 2. "Forcing just one screensaver model to increase the market?" They said screensavers must work just out of the box, with default settings, this is nonsense. We are used to configurable screensavers in other operative systems, this is what people know to use... and developers know to develop, this is not going to increase the market, this is going to shrink it. Developers won't develop something with features users can't access. 3. "You have to live with it..." Hey, are you telling us that the screensavers defaults is what WE want? can't i just select a shape changer screensaver to show shapes in Y favorite color? I'm not a computer, there are no defaults for aesthetics in human beings, i like blue, but my sister likes green, but we like the same screensaver... and the worst, we can't set it in our fav colors... 4. "cuting our freedom" Yes, just that. We use to argue against Windows and closed source software cause they cut our freedom... but sigh, if we can't even configure our screensaver... how can i feel like i'm really free using a software? 5. "we are setting what we think you need" Hey wait... don't FORCE to me those defaults, this is MY computer, i want to be able to CONFIGURE what is MINE -- no 'Settings' button in gnome-screensaver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/22007 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
