Fan speed control  
Written by zsolt320i the 18 Sep 08 at 19:20. Category: System. Related to: Synaptic package manager. New
Just in this days i found a very good description how to control fan speed:

It would be great if this would be implemented in the next release, or we could install a program from synaptic which would control the fan speed according the temperature.

Changing the size of windows/applications  
Written by zsolt320i the 20 Apr 08 at 19:51. Category: Brainstorm. Related to: Nothing/Others. New
Hello,

there is a very annoying thing in Ubuntu: that is very hard to catch the window/application border or corner to change the window/application size.

It would be good if this would be improved in the future! (mainly the corners when you want to change with one movement the lenght and the height)

Easy audio settings good audio hardver support  
Written by zsolt320i the 13 Oct 08 at 16:59. Category: Multimedia. Related to: Nothing/Others. New
Hy,

at this moment is very hard to configure the audio settings, because there are several possibilities what you can choose:
alsa, pulse, oss, and the audio chipsets in my case NVIDIA CK 804 - IEC 958, Nvidia NVIDIA CK 804.
So in my case 5 possibilities to chose the right mode for audio settings.
But from this five possibility none of them are good:
- alsa: you can play more then 1 audio file in paralel, but you can not use dolby and dts, you can not change the audio volume from the audio or video players (I'm using optical connection between my computer and my amplifier)
- pulse: you can not run more audio files in parallel, you can not play dts, ad dolby, you can change the audio volume from the player
- oss dts and dolby is working but you can not play more audio files in parallel, and you can not change the voulme form the player
- NVIDIA ....IEC 958 i don't know what is for.
- NVIDIA .... i don't know what is for.

So actually we have a lot audio manager and all of them are just partialy usable for a general user for general PC using: game, music, movie, applications.
My suggestion is to make just one audio manager from five but this should be easy to configure, and should work easily in all situation!
(If you are not able to write the proper software for all chipset than lets implement the same situation as at the video cards: the chipset maker should provide the driver).
If you are voting with minus pls explain, because I do not understand why some people do not want to have just one strong audio manager instead of 5 which are good for nothing!

energy saving settings problem  
Written by zsolt320i the 24 Jul 08 at 18:35. Category: System. Related to: Nothing/Others. Not an idea
Hy,

my actual problem is if I'm going to the system/settings/energy management and I'm setting the energy saving mode after an idle period, then the PC is shutting down, and when I want to start again it is not working.
The hard disk is working but the monitor is black, i always have to reset for restarting.
So it would be nice if this would be corrected.

Better&More software for Ubuntu  
Written by zsolt320i the 15 Jul 08 at 21:52. Category: Others. Related to: Nothing/Others. New
There are some very good step to popularize Ubuntu (cooperation with Intel, presentation in big expositions etc etc) but this is not enough!
If you have a good operation system without softwares what you can use under this operation system then nobody will use this operations system!
Therefore i think somehow the different kind of software companies should be convinced to write professional softwares for Ubuntu too(picture,movie, sound-editors; multimedia softwares; softwares for programing; for different applications; games etc etc).
There is a good site from where you can download a lot of good things(http://www.getdeb.net/) but this is not enough!
