[Bug 535322] Re: no gui options to switch title bar buttons back to right side

2010-03-25 Thread Colin D Bennett
@Mantas Kriaučiūnas: Thank you for the tool! I will probably modify it for my own use and my friends and family's use in Lucid. (I will make the close button always be in the corner.) Dear Ubuntu: you really should include something like this in the Lucid Lynx release! However, I would be a li

Dear Ubuntu: If you're going to force a left-hand-side window button layout on poor users, at least make the following two concessions (and I have converted many relatively non-technical Windows users to Ubuntu users, including my wife, my dad, and my father-in-law). (1) My mouse spends nearly a

[Bug 875359] [NEW] evince locks up when zooming in or out

2011-10-15 Thread Colin D Bennett
Public bug reported: Evince locks up when I zoom in or out very far. I had this happen with both the mouse gesture “pinch to zoom” and also with keyboard shortcut Ctrl-plus / Ctrl-minus. I reproduced in 5 or 6 times in a row and also did so in gdb to get a backtrace. Occasionally, I start Evinc

The prior two traces were when I locked up Evince with Ctrl minus and Ctrl plus. This one is done with trackpad pinch to zoom. It has a thread exit in it too, maybe that's something. These are the remaining threads: (gdb) info thread Id Target Id Frame 6Thread 0x7fe7c0fa3700 (

Wow! I this is really confusing! I too thought that this button should bring up a dialog to set the time or something such as the system Time/Date Settings window from the System|Administration menu, where you can enable NTP synchronization. At least in Lucid the Set System Time button does not
