I like Ubuntu, it's a really great OS but to be honest compared to Windows or Mac OSX it's not as polished.
That's why I made a list of "small things" that can be improved like :
- An easy way to format usb drive like Linux Mint did with Mint Stick
- Fix the bug of "install / reinstall wipe out all other partition" (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source...y/+bug/1265192)
- Watch a movie on TV at 23.976hz without audio / video desync (https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1345770)
- Window menu disappears from time to time (https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1353775)
- An easy way to empty the trash of a usb drive when you unmount it because Ubuntu 14.04 no longer don't ask “Do you want to empty the trash” when you unmount it (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...s/+bug/1356871)
- Compiz wrong refresh rate auto detectection (50hz instead of 60hz) with Nvidia proprietary driver (https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1345771)
- When you install Ubuntu and you just select a partition, the installer uselessly want to resize the partition
- Allow changing display frequency from display settings. Usefull to watch a movie at 23.976hz or 25hz for example.
A lots of things will change when Ubuntu will move to Unity 8 but it will take some time (arround april 2016 ?) and I don't want the same problems affect again Ubuntu.
So I think we should centralize some requests because many bugs reports fall into oblivion without being treated.
You can make a request on this thread and I will add the most populars.
Maybe if we make enough noise they will fix theses little annoying things and everybody will enjoy a even better Ubuntu !
I really want to see my favorite OS get better so I try this. If you have a better idea to help improve Ubuntu, let us know !
