Allow user to choose mouse button for resizing windows in metacity  
Written by zdenek.zikan the 29 Feb 08 at 15:45. Category: Others. Related to: Nothing/Others. New
Right now, metacity uses Alt+Middle mouse to resize windows while each other WM I've tried so far uses Alt+Right mouse. It is minor improvement but for me it is really important issue because I use trackpoint at my laptop with 3 buttons - and the middle one I use for emulating mouse wheel, which is a great thing IMO.

If not changing the default behavior to what other WMs use, please put some option to settings.

(I don't know if it concerns also Compiz or not.)

Speed Up Ubuntu-Gnome boot time   forum
Written by Arioch the 28 Feb 08 at 15:26. Category: System. Related to: Nothing/Others. New
I guess everybody has experienced the rather long boot up times in Ubuntu (particularly with laptops). I know they are already working on it, but the change from feisty to gutsy was a pain in the ass in terms of boot up speed.
A default WinXP installation beats Ubuntu's boot up time by far!! That shouldn't be allowed fellas!!

I therefore propose to the development team (both Ubuntu and by extension Gnome)to work on the improvement of boot up times in Ubuntu systems.
