hernejjHello. I've noticed a whole bunch of open bugs that complain about app windows & dialog boxes that do not fit (or scale down to) some resolution.  This got me wondering... does Ubuntu have a smallest supported resolution? If so, what is it? Is it documented anywhere? If not, it seems like a good idea to come up with one so we can ensure that all the windows/dialogs work in the minimum supported resolution.  lastly, I would like to00:35
hernejjask all the same questions about the Ubuntu Netbook Remix :)00:35
hernejjHere is a case where I should have done better at my Googling :)  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements00:38
hernejjIt looks like, for Ubuntu Desktop the "Bare Minimum" is 640x480.  The recommended minimum is 1024x768.  Ubuntu has dialogs that do not properly fit in 640x480.  Is this ok since it is not the "recommended" environment?00:40
hernejjIt looks like, for Ubuntu Netbook Remix there is no "Bare Minimum".  The recommended minimum is 800x600.  Is it safe to assume that any dialog that fits 800x600 should be ok? And any dialog that does not fit 800x600 is a bug?00:42

persiahernejj: Yes, please assume that anything that doesn't fix in 800x600 is a bug.  Getting down to 800x480 or 640x480 is a bonus, but not really expected.04:19

c_kornthe new theme is not very good for the buttons in vlc. you nearly don't see if a button is pressed or not: http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/48032/screenshot_001_dUaV7G.png http://www.ubuntu-pics.de/bild/48033/screenshot_002_Aac7o1.png18:20

ubottuLaunchpad bug 537082 in light-themes "Hard to distinguish between toggled and untoggled buttons" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/53708218:44
c_kornoh, great. thanks vish. and it already has a more generic title.18:44
vishc_korn: attach your screenshots too18:44
c_kornok18:45
vishthe problem is that the button is dark even when normal.. so making it darker when toggled is not really a great option :(18:45
c_kornyeah. I also don't have a picture in mind how the buttons should look like18:50
c_kornmaybe the border should be on all sides. not only on the top.18:51
ekilfoilis there a setting change somewhere that disabled overwriting core dumps on segfaults?  core files were automatically overwritten in karmic, but it seems they are not in lucid20:19
