[Bug 869793] Re: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files

2019-07-23 Thread Deepinthekernel
I so agree with richardbrucebaxter on this. When I switched all my computers from Windows 98 to Linux in the late 90's this was the biggest practical difference. Now I know its not Linux or the file system but Nautilus that is the problem. Its exactly the same today, load up a large file on a windo

I opened this bug many years ago. Nobody did anything about it in spite of many people agreeing with me. To be honest I would not bother these days, there is too many major things wrong with Ubuntu to bother about trivial but obvious things. Things that affect the on-the-ground user. Back to this

Actually I really like this idea from Bryce Harrington: > Note that it would also be possible for the applet to compare the current screen resolution to the apps desired window size and if things look too tight, to hide or scale down the graphical display. However I suspect if the above steps are

2008-04-24 Thread Deepinthekernel
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor I have my screen resolution set at 1680x1050. The smallest I can make this app is that it still occupies about 1/6 of the screen area. This is really bad use of space - an app like this should be able to operate even when its window
