Users new to Ubuntu will continue to use sudo and the terminal in Lucid. One reason for that is forums and another is our own documentation. Here is an example - and remember that without running this command no user will be able to watch their DVDs:
sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh I notice several suggestions: 1. Add text explaining that sudo will not give feedback, 2. Make Lucid use pwfeedback, 3. Enable pwfeedback only in the desktop edition, 3. Use an animation that doesn't reveal the password length but does provide feedback The only alternative I see that would solve the problem is for all forums and documentation to replace sudo with gksudo. -- Entering password in Terminal gives no visual feedback https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/194472 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
