Take care of the little details

Written by AnRa the 28 Feb 08 at 16:46. Category: Look and Feel. Related to: Nothing/Others. Won't implement

It is important that Ubuntu is polished up to the little details.

LOOK AT THIS: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LittleDetails

Developer comments

While the point is valid in principle, the idea doesn't have enough detail to be implemented ;)

Seriously, that is in part what this site is for, but posting actual suggestions for concrete issues is more helpful.

Right now, the most likely successful migrations to Ubuntu happen for *nix experts and total novices who have someone install Ubuntu for them, but the most likely people to try Ubuntu are Windows power users--those who like a lot of configuration options but who are also used to using the GUI for tweaking options and not manually editing a text configuration file.

The most popular requests for editing the /boot/grub/menu.lst file involve changing the default boot option (to Windows instead of Ubuntu) and changing the timeout before a boot option is selected. The other less popular ones would be just bonus features, I guess.

Enable Nautilus to use tabs.

Nautilus is Ubuntu's default file management software. There is no reason why you should need to open countless Nautilus windows to manage your files. It is time to bring tabs from your web browser to your file browser.

This is implemented! See the Gnome 2.24 release notes.
