Dec2012

MartinPitt conducts a review of the most popular ideas on http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com for the December 2012 brainstorm review cycle.

There are quite a number of software center related issues, but as this is currently being redesigned anyway (dash integration) I skipped those.

No Ubuntu version in the splash screen, for telling apart images/burned CDs

No way to control music while screen is locked

  • http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/29852/

  • Add sound indicator to lock screen? gnome-settings-daemon's media keys plugin could continue to work at the lock screen, unless we are going to switch to another VT when moving to lock handling in lightdm?
  • Status: Asked Robert Ancell

Adjust keyboard backlight defaults on laptops

  • http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/29924/

  • Original request was for display brightness as well, which should already work. Limited to configuring keyboard illumination default.
  • Status: Martin Pitt will respond

Ability to turn off notification

Check the ink level of printers

Reinstate option not to install bootloader during installation

Warn users about attached external drives before installing Ubuntu
