I tried this out with a local build of freeciv-gtk2 (2.3.x code) on Ubuntu 10.10 (netbook edition) running Unity. It's worse than I thought: the normal in-game menu bar[*] doesn't seem to be accessible in any circumstances. This makes the game unplayable, IMO.
[*] by which I mean Game/Edit/View/Select/Unit/Work/Combat/Civilization/Help (If I bring up the Cities report, then the menubar at the top of the screen becomes the one that should be embedded in the report -- Production/Governor/etc. Not sure if the original reporter sees this too?) I haven't tried newer, all-Unity versions of Ubuntu. Does the menubar- stealing affect desktop use as well as netbook use? i.e., does this make Freeciv unplayable on the default install of Ubuntu Natty? Is there any kind of programmer's reference or other documentation that will tell us how to make Freeciv's use of menubars compatible with this environment? Or is it a bug that needs fixing in the Unity stuff? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/743265 Title: when using unity, the cities menu is not shown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-appmenu/+bug/743265/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
