| extropy | when I hold down the [alt] key it takes ~1 full second for unity to respond by giving me the "File" menu. | 06:18 |
|---|---|---|
| extropy | if I press the [left] arrow key *within* that 1 second (in firefox) the browser goes "Back" as expected | 06:18 |
| extropy | but then Ubuntu still gives me the "Type your command" business | 06:19 |
| extropy | I use a laptop with a really crappy trackpad so this happens to me constantly | 06:19 |
| extropy | is this where I should bring up UX issues with Ubuntu? | 06:19 |
| extropy | I was having a hard time consistently duplicating this issue until I discovered that there's a delay between pressing down the [alt] key and the UI responding by giving me the "File" menu | 06:21 |
| extropy | but there you have it ... the delay, for whatever reason, is crucial. | 06:22 |
| extropy | to be honest I don't even know what this "type your command" thing even is ... is this some kind of AppleTalkie, Powershelly thing or what? | 06:25 |
| extropy | it seems like the same kind of functionality I would expect from "~" key in an FPS | 06:26 |
| extropy | found out how to disable it ... but it shows the default setting as "Alt-L" not "Alt-Left" ... any idea why it was doing this to begin with? | 06:29 |
| extropy | ah ... it's a typo | 06:31 |
| extropy | just check another computer default setting is "Alt L" (as opposed to "Alt+L") | 06:31 |
| extropy | 12.04 LTS is affected ... haven't checked 12.10 | 06:32 |
| extropy | I'm manually fixing the bug on all my machines. What can I do to push this change to your repos? | 06:33 |
| extropy | well, I tried ... cya | 06:35 |

| Bacta | Hi - regarding the dock being on the left Mark Shuttleworth said it was like that because he wanted it to line up with the "Ubuntu" button. Where exactly is this button he's talking about? | 11:58 |
| Bacta | And as a follow up to that is there a way I can move the launcher to the bottom? It's incredibly frustrating having it pop up when you're trying to close/minimize an application | 12:09 |
| Klap-in | Bacta: the launcher of the dash has the ubuntu logo | 12:22 |
| Bacta | Ok | 12:22 |
| Bacta | Can I change it? I'm finding this really difficult to use on a laptop :( | 12:23 |
| Klap-in | sofar i know (as common user) is this not possible.. but i haven't investigated it | 12:24 |
| Bacta | Ok | 12:25 |
| Klap-in | but simple query on askubuntu.com gives: http://askubuntu.com/questions/33605/can-i-move-the-unity-launcher | 12:26 |
| Bacta | Are people aware of this being an issue? I appreciate it was a design decision but it's kind of flawed the way it's placed now from a usability stand point | 12:26 |
| Klap-in | i like i space gained.. | 12:27 |
| Bacta | I see - if they haven't solved it for 12.04 they probably haven't for 12.10 either | 12:27 |
| Klap-in | Bacta: no idea whether are initiatives, i guess not, but better you do a search on launchpad for example | 12:29 |
| Bacta | Is Launchpad the bug tracker? | 12:29 |
| Klap-in | yes | 12:29 |
| Bacta | Wouldn't they just close anything like that as "won't fix"? | 12:29 |
| Klap-in | maybe, or a 'not just now' | 12:30 |
| Klap-in | Bacta: the subject of this channel mentions also the mailinglists, maybe you can search it archive, i guess it discussed there too.. | 12:34 |
| Bacta | May do when I get some time | 12:36 |
| Bacta | Was really just wondering if there was a quick known solution to this problem I could apply now | 12:36 |
| Bacta | But it doesn't appear there is | 12:36 |
