The problem is, that icon size depends on text size. But usually one wants big icons or buttons so one can use his touchscreen but small texts to read.

Simple, while setting a new monitor into your computer, what ubuntu automatically detect and configure it, without commands.

:( I hope you will understand.

Hello
I wanted to record the first 20sec of a video by sound recorder. Unfortunatly it does not have an internal channel

First of let me start by saying that I think pressing F6 twice on boot to get a free Ubuntu is better than having a whole other distribution called Gobuntu however, Gobuntu should follow the same goal and it probably already is but read on to get my true point. Gobuntu 7.10 had an issue with Firefox's proprietary artwork (logo, name). (Read on for my point/opinion.)

IceCat is a very picky version of Firefox but it is essentially a more free as in freedom version of Firefox in which the browser as a whole is free to be changed as opposed to the majority of the browser in the standard Firefox.

Windows converts and others who just like Firefox should still be able to get it by loading Ubuntu as they normally would but for the extra picky users (The "Free Software Only" Mode is made for picky users in the first place), when they choose to load a fully free Ubuntu system, have IceCat be in that mode.

It shouldn't be hard to implement with concern to space consumption either since they are technically the same package with SLIGHT differences, so it shouldn't take much more space at all!

If Firefox is going to be the browser as it was for 8.04 in the "Free Software Only" mode, then there really is no point for a Free-Software mode (apart from open source video drivers, etc).

If not IceCat then epiphany or at least some fully free web browser. However, I do think it would be better to have IceCat since it is technically a fully free FIREFOX and that's what Ubuntu users would prefer to have.

In addition to it being "free-er", IceCat points solely to free plugins such as gnash instead of pointing to Adobe as would the original Firefox.

Voters, remember...you are voting for it to be in the "Free Software" Mode only so if you want Firefox and you load Ubuntu in the normal way, this won't affect you so, please vote ;).

I recognized the fact, that so many apps use tabbing:
Firefox, nautilus, even multidesktop is a nothing but a system of tabs. Why does Ubuntu not have a global handling of tabs?

Hello
Admins have to set up new users and to configure there profile. Why not set up an template for new users?

it is good to let the new ubuntu user to experiment the animation.But some of the new user might misunderstand the "glide1" animation is because of slow instead of an effect.It really happens when i was promoting to my friends. So please remove the "glide1" animation and let them feel the speed.

Grub is ugly and not accessible for Multitouch.

Hi
I am using tomboy with ubuntu one to synchronize notes.

Why isn't it as easy as synchronizing thunderbird? Why do I have to enter the computername?
