Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-media
Just switched from Ubuntu 9.04 to 10.10, I notice that the simple GUI to
adjust volumes has disappeared, now we have to use the full blown,
tabbed sound preferences UI in order to adjust volumes, what a bloat :-(
Anyway, trying to get used to it, I noticed some problems :
- the main/master slider at the top of the UI, always reads "100%", no
matter where the slider is. Left, middle, right.. it just reads "100%"
no matter what.
- The new panel applet sees some regression too: using the mouse wheel
on it to adjust volume, doesn't display the % any more, which I found
rather practical to adjust volume quickly and accurately in a hurry.
Without any indication, it's now a hit and miss thing, so it forces me
to click on the applet to display the slider in order to see what I am
doing exactly. That's extra overhead which was not necessary before,
where has Gnome's legendary usability gone :-(
