I am sure that this feature will lead ubuntu to move forward in desktop arena.

I browse samba, nfs and ftp-shares daily in Nautilus, and i love the drag & drop between folders.

Sadly though i need to use another ftp-client to connect to my ssl-enabled ftp. It would be wonderful to use Nautilus to browse these too.

Nautilus = An all-in-one solution!

Should show the transfer speed when copying file to and from another computer on the lan. I think it already do that in kde. should be the same thing in gnome.

I tested out 8.04 Beta on my laptop after being very impressed with how it fared on my desktop.

I currently have to use wpa_supplicant.conf to connect to my internet here at school because NetworkManager does not allow for open algorithm with second phase MSCHAPV2.

Using the same setup on 8.04, I cannot connect to the internet.

It would be nice to either have:

a.) NetworkManager support open algorithm with second phase MSCHAPV2

or

b.) Allow for users to decide whether to use iwl or ipw drivers


Thanks!


P.S. I am trying to get my fellow students to use Ubuntu and this is quite a big deterrent.

Ubuntu still seems to move around the idea of clients and servers, and many applications do because it's a system that works and is generally as reliable as the server is.

This is not a problem when it's used appropriately, but one thing where a server/client or a series of servers and clients should be absolutely transparent is on home networks, particularly file shares.

I've noticed to use the Network place you have to select the computer you want to access the shares for, you have to go through several steps to do this. This greatly resembles typical use of SMB in Windows and can be confusing for people who are less familiar with networking.

On windows, the backspace key goes to the previous page in your history but on Ubuntu it doesn't. It was because of a bug I believe but it would be a help.

I am using hardy heron..and I connect to internet using a "how to" that I got from the ubuntu forum..It requires me to type commands in the terminal....

What suprised me was the the fact that, Hardy has lot of improvement in terms of bluetooth configuration gui...and the network manager has new gprs configuration section... I think someone can connect to internet using it...but not me

As a normal user I think there should be a Gui wizard to configure a GPRS internet connection through bluetooth.

When NetworkManager connects to a Mobile Broadband it should tell you how its done, either 2G or 3G

Big problem that not only affects firefox 2, it also happens on firefox 3 beta and hasn't been resolved yet.

I get at least 4 or 5 crashes daily on older hardware. But even on new modern hardware i still get 1 or 2 crashes.

As everyone knows, the crashes happen the most when viewing heavy flash (be it fullscreen video, flash game, a few big flash ads on websites, etc.). It specifically happens when changing sites (visible crash) or when closing the browser (invisible crash, but FF does not free up the memory)

While i have a "killall firefox-bin" launcher icon on my desktop, sometimes my system becomes so unresponsive because it stays in memory and i have to try to reboot or force a system shutdown.

Anyway this can be easily fixed (when implemented) if the process is killed after a crash, freeing up the memory and making the system usable again.

sadly i had to install the windows version of Firefox + flash in Wine to avoid the crashing.... so why do we have a buggy linux version that won't even detect the crash and free up the mem??

Alright now that we finally have a GUI tool for ndiswrapper, it should be able to detect the chipset used and if there are drivers available, automatically download and install them.
