Vote only when you comment.  
Written by hellmet the 29 Feb 08 at 08:16. Global category: Others. Not an idea
The voting feature is being abused at the moment, as its a feature that everyone sees the first thing, and are click-happy. It would be better if we were allowed to vote only when we also comment.

Written by average-joe the 29 Feb 08 at 07:58. Global category: Others. Not an idea
average person needs wizards across the board...

Invert screen colors at will  
Written by rooster the 29 Feb 08 at 08:07. Global category: Graphics. Already implemented
In Mac OS X you can invert the colors on screen at the press of a button. This is a really great option for tired eyes.

I'd like to see a super-easy way of doing this in Ubuntu (or the x windowing system) as well.

Ubuntu-based multimedia distribution  
Written by Havocc the 29 Feb 08 at 09:34. Global category: Multimedia. Already implemented
There is Kubuntu Xubuntu Edubuntu...
But is there a Mediabuntu yet?
It would be nice to have a distribution focused on Digital TV and Radio, VDR, video media playback, etc. with Ubuntu philosophy behind it.

Real-time Email Antivirus software for Ubuntu  
Written by 836v the 29 Feb 08 at 09:31. Global category: Others. New
Hello there,
Yes, an E-mail Real-Time Antivirus in Ubuntu would be good for. . Windows users!

Because, emails come from and go to Windows users so, even although Ubuntu users cannot be infected by windows virus, other users can be infected, indeed.

As well, the Antivirus could be used to scan Windows partitions in our PCs (and -even- to scan for possible linux virus!?).

Currently, real-time email antivirus are pretty hard to make it working or simply do not work in most if not all AV for linux.

Regards,
Victor

Solution #2: An option to scan e-mail attachments before sending them.
Written by the 1 Mar 09 at 07:08.
It would be nice if somewhere in K-mail there would be an option to scan attachments for windows virusses before I send them.

Please note this is only for sending them, not receiving them. This will be enough to keep windows users safe, and my system will remain fast.

Best regards,
Cedric
