PC
Choosing “About This Computer” should open a normal, non-modal window in the center of the screen.
Ubuntu version
The main text in the window should be the Ubuntu version, followed by “pre-release” if it is not a release version, otherwise “LTS” if it is an LTS version. For example:
- Ubuntu 14.04 pre-release
- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 14.10
Menus
File ==== Close Ctrl W Edit ==== Copy Ctrl C
Copy
Choosing the Copy command should copy all the text shown in the window, colon-and-space-delimited:
Ubuntu 13.04 (64-bit) Computer name: mistletoe Model: Lenovo ThinkPad T420 Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 2.7 GHz ×2 Graphics: Intel 965GM x86/MMX/SSE2 Memory: 4 GB Disk: 100 GB, 26.8 GB free
Phone
On Ubuntu Phone, “About This Phone” should be in System Settings — because, while it isn’t a setting, UI real estate is at a premium so there isn’t a better place to put it.
Each value should have the standard UI for copying it as a whole.
The manufacturer and model should be on a single line, separated by a space.
When being tested/demoed on a PC, the “Serial” and “IMEI” values should be “N/A”.
The “Last updated” value should be the date on which a system update was last installed, or “Never” for a fresh install.
“Check For Updates” should navigate to the “Software Updates” panel.
Below “Check For Updates” should be a standalone “Storage” item (not shown). We might add other hardware-related items here later.
“Software Licenses” should navigate to a single “Software Licenses” screen that consists of a single text view listing all the licenses for included software (since there is no other way to access that information).
We will probably discover more legal requirements to display information here.
“Storage”
|
Erratum: Between “Used by Ubuntu” and “Used by apps” should be items for “Movies”, “Audio”, “Pictures”, and “Other files”.
In the “Storage” screen, each storage amount should be displayed in the most appropriate unit for that amount — to zero decimal places for kilobytes, and one decimal place for any other unit.
“By Name” and “By Size” should sort the list of applications, “By Size” largest first.
In both the chart and list, the size for each application should be the total of the application itself, plus any documents and data it has saved.
“Software licenses”
|
The “Software licenses” screen should list, in alphabetical order, all the packages included in the system image, each expanding to reveal the copyright license(s) that cover it.
“Regulatory info”
|
The “Regulatory info” screen should present whatever regulatory identifiers, logos, and certifications are required in the markets where the devices are offered.
