Since we're at the formative stages of Hardy I thought I'd start a
thread about apps which might be good for inclusion in the default
Ubuntu setup.
My suggestion:

Hi Everyone
This is my first post here.
It seems to me that me that if an administration job needs to get done
there are pretty much two ways of going about it:
With GUI assistance, i.e Synaptic
or
Through the Command line with possible manual editing of configuration
files.

Hi,
Can anyone point me to an IT8212 ATA RAID Controller device

I'm sceptical about that, because drawing windows shouldn't be causing
xruns if the system is set up properly. I believe JACK Meterbridge uses

Yes; when an Ubuntu package has fixes from upstream applied, that

Hi,
I'd like to propose moving apt-cacher to main. I haven't done main
inclusion reports before so bear with me while I dive into this :)

IMO, beginners like the hand-holding. It's vital for Ubuntu not to get
confusing for the end-user. Getting them to run

Hello,
There is a bug that has come back. It was originally reported on
2006-09-18. I don't think anybody has figured out what was actually
causing the problem but it was fixed during feisty. Unfortunately it
is now back. The bug causes the mouse pointer to periodically jump to

Our miro packages need some major work. In the form of:
- New Upstream, 1.0
- Some compilation reconsiderations
I'm not specifically sure of the cause, but the repo version has some major
issues, perhaps it was due to the lib boost incompatibilities of the last
version, well now the code works wit

Don't have time to read through it all right now, but looks to be right on.
On 7.10 I installed dmraid and it says no RAID disks, but I may need to
reboot and don't really have the time right this second to play further.
Wasn't planning on booting from these disks, anyway, but just using them as

Fairly often, I'll get a bug report filed against Wine about something
that Wine shouldn't be able to cause - total keyboard deadlocks, frozen
screen, being unable to even ctrl-alt-backspace or ctrl-alt-f1, etc.
These are clearly not Wine bugs, but it's unclear to me where I should
refile them. W
Just a thought, but maybe just categorize them on the wine tracker (those
from the wine tracker obviously) with something such as 'Outside Bug'
generically, or more specifically, if you can determine it 'Video Driver

be pass

I see where you are going with this and I will make a bug report if I
encounter this sort of trouble again.
I hope I am not "beating this to death now" but I need to continue.
Being a dumbass I have another perspective to offer. Early on I
encountered these post installation questions but I did

All of what you write exists:
* A package that is not installed but run from the bash prompt is
captured with a comment like "The program 'foobar' is currently
not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install
foobar"
This functionality should be instal

I am beginning to feel like I am becoming a pain in the butt. I don't
mean to be, I just want to help. I don't seem to be able to explain

I see what you are saying about mark by task and the dpkg-reconfigure
command but this brings up two more "trains of tho

The manual pages contain vast amounts of detail, but I'm not sure
