      <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/9759/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Currently, the gnome-panel uses an insane amount of RAM. Some users have reported it using up to 110mb of RAM! We cannot let something so small be such a huge memory hog!<br /><br />(Note: This idea is different to #368 - excessive ram usage as this is an idea for a specific issue)<br />

      <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/9030/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Currently, if you run at a low resolution (particularly anything under 800x600) Windows will not fit completely on screen, and you will not be able to see the bottom half of the window.<br /><br />It should be noted that when the user changes the resolution to a smaller size (under 600px high) the resolution dialog is too big to fit on screen, and the user cannot click or see the "Accept", "Close" or any other buttons/information.<br /><br />Providing a scrollbar would fix this.<br />

      <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/9028/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Currently, the default Grub Menu is ultra confusing for the average user. When a first time Linux user boots their system, they see three confusing boot options. Which one are they meant to select?<br /><br />It would be more intuitive if the Grub Boot Menu Options were as followed:<br /><br />Ubuntu 8.04<br />Ubuntu 8.04 (Fail-Safe)<br />Ubuntu 8.04 (Memory Test)<br />Microsoft Windows<br /><br />This way, all the boot options are available, but the user can almost instantly understand what they are and what they mean.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[The current Ubuntu website is messy, unlike Ubuntu. I move the website be redesigned to be simple, and more usable for beginning users. <br /><br />Remember, the first thing a user see's when he wants to download Ubuntu is Ubuntu.com<br /><br />It needs to be more intuitive!<br /><br />Mandrivas site (although Ugly) is designed with simplicity in mind: http://mandriva.com/<br />

      <description><![CDATA[I don't have Evolution for the main reason I hate it - I've uninstalled it, but Ubuntu updater always wants to update it.<br /><br />It's pointless - the updates will do nothing due to the fact I don't have it. Ubuntu should not ask to install updates for 'that program 'if the user does not have it. However, if they install that program, updates for it should become available.<br />

      <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/9758/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[You notice your system needs updates, quickly you click on the update manager, you're alerted to a critical update and click for the changes, "g_assert() over g_return_if_fail()"<br /><br />"Wholly Carp Batman!" you think to yourself as you start to wonder why they call it Linux for human beings...<br /><br />--<br /><br />This is our current issue - the Update Manager notes make no sense for the average user. Even power users don't want to remember what some sort of wacky command does, they just want to know the changes in plain English. <br />

      <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/9029/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Currently, the networking documentary is very simple, and does not provide any real ways to resolve networking issues, or to even get connected to the web if Ubuntu does not connect itself out of the box.<br /><br />I know my way around the terminal but still found the Ubuntu documentary on networking very sketchy. It needs to be rewritten.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[Currently there are a number of applications that clearly have some memory leaks. We can't just ignore this!<br /><br />We need to work on fixing some memory leaks and make applications run more efficiently.<br /><br />Gnome-system-monitor is one of the big ones. Which constantly complains if selinux is not installed.<br />

      <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/2442/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[I do NOT mean include massive games like Tremulous. But rather add some polish to the already included games such as Tetris, or Chess. Currently, the included games don't look very professional or have much polish if any. Which is not a good look at all.<br /><br />I suggest that a small group of people working on polishing off the included games to give a better feel to them.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[Don't get me wrong, I love the bleeding edge stuff. But putting beta software in a Long Term Support edition is worrying. Really. What a better way to 'sell' Ubuntu to businesses then by saying our long term support edition comes with unstable software including Firefox 3 beta 5.<br />

      <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/9057/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Many people ruin their boot loader after installing, and cannot boot Ubuntu (or any other OS). I think during the installation, Ubuntu should ask whether the user wants to create a boot floppy/cd/usb in case something goes wrong.<br /><br />Slackware also has this.<br />

      <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/3963/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Currently, by default the panels in Ubuntu are just a boring solid colour which looks very unprofessional. I suggest the panels to be simply changed to about a 50% transparency.<br /><br />Example:<br />http://www.vulomedia.com/images/95454Ubuntu.png<br />
