Change file formats using right-click mouse button  
Written by mabuse the 29 Feb 08 at 21:38. Category: System. Related to: Nothing/Others. New
A lot of times, when you want to change a format - odf to pdf, gif to jpg, ogg to mp3, doc to odf,.... - you must open a program, load the file and convert it to the desired format. It's such annnoying not to have a right-mouse click option in the nautilus to change directly a file through all the available formats.

Change start page of Brainstorm to show latest ideas or something, else people will probably push for the already high-graded ideas and won't care of other newer ideas.

Maybe a page with random ideas?

And remove the grades if not specifically requested, since it will affect peoples voting.

Developer comments
New front page, with a descending (nb of votes)/(time since creation) sorting.
This way, the newest ideas have their chance to stand up!

Suspend and hibernate still seems to be a big issue based on forum posts. Really focus on fixing it, even with proprietary drivers.

Ctrl-alt-backspace can be very handy, but having it available when your screensaver is running makes other people able to log you out when your computer is locked.

I know this might be difficult to implement (since we're still running in the X server and all) but maybe it's possible for X to ignore this when in screensaver mode?

Since I don't think many people would be scared of an extra button to configure their selected screensaver, it would be really nice if it could be included (like it is in xscreensaver-settings).
