nikolam | Hi, I think I removed Amazon addon to unity and ubuntu one. But I still get commercial software offerings while searching dash home. | 12:54 |
---|---|---|
nikolam | Does that means it searches local application cache from software center or it search it online? | 12:55 |
nikolam | anyone actually using unity? Since I see people everywhere migrate to xfce/xubuntu, gnome, other distributions | 12:59 |
nikolam | I personally do not get unity and idea behind it, and was sing it for several days | 12:59 |
nikolam | I install epps they go away hidden in "all apps" | 13:00 |
nikolam | I am installiing apps in software centre, it get stuck. | 13:00 |
nikolam | since install I get dozen of crash reports etc. | 13:00 |
nikolam | when I log in, before unity displays, i have broken screen on top side for several seconds, etc etc (12.10) | 13:02 |
popey | nikolam, what did you remove? | 13:09 |
popey | the usual way people remove the shopping lens is "sudo apt-get remove unity-lens-shopping" | 13:09 |
nikolam | popey, yes that is right. | 13:10 |
nikolam | also I removed Ubuntu one. | 13:10 |
nikolam | I was just wondering if software center is searching locally or remotely and if I can remove commercial applications offerings from dash, to not to interfere with everyday use. | 13:11 |
popey | you can set a filter in the applications lens, yes, so it only shows locally installed apps | 13:12 |
nikolam | precisely not to have "more suggestions". | 13:12 |
nikolam | oh it is great | 13:12 |
nikolam | But I wouold need that for every user on machine | 13:12 |
popey | kinda dumbs down the dash a bit when you disable all this stuff | 13:14 |
nikolam | I figured I filter with right-click. not so intuitive. | 13:14 |
popey | there is a filter option in the top right, no need for right click | 13:14 |
nikolam | yes, only they are filters per type of app. and it seems that removing "software center" removes "more suggestions" and I wanted that. | 13:17 |
nikolam | I suppose I will find some more clever use of dash in the future, if any, other then making uninstalled apps visible. | 13:17 |
nikolam | I still get that "searching in the dash" legal notice. Does that means searching in dash is still sent to third parties? (even after removal of unity-lens-shopping and ubuntu one) | 13:19 |
popey | no | 13:19 |
popey | it doesnt remove that legal notice | 13:19 |
Daekdroom | The video lens does send it to third parties too, I think. | 13:19 |
nikolam | oh. so I need to remove video lens too. | 13:21 |
popey | or just flick the switch which turns them all off in the privacy settings | 13:21 |
nikolam | popey, yes but how to do it for all users and future usernames. I suppose only by removing | 13:22 |
nikolam | You are right, after removing all unity parts that sends data over internet, I end up with not much | 13:23 |
popey | you could do it via a gsettings command | 13:23 |
popey | why do you want to disable these things? | 13:24 |
nikolam | popey, because I got terrified reading searching the dash - legal notice. | 13:25 |
popey | terrified by what? | 13:25 |
nikolam | terrified by the thing I did not consult any online source I got terrified just by reading it. And it reads that third parties can have all my usage information ad searches etc. | 13:27 |
popey | not all | 13:28 |
popey | and not usage information | 13:28 |
nikolam | I was not also informed about that before installing. I also removed ubuntu one in previous LTS, by seeing it making connections over internet. | 13:28 |
nikolam | And now things are all over the place. | 13:29 |
nikolam | popey, I understand. But... | 13:29 |
nikolam | If i can make it behave, I can use it. if I can not control what information it sends from me and to who... | 13:30 |
popey | it's not misbehaving | 13:30 |
popey | we're pretty up front about what it's sending | 13:30 |
popey | and to where | 13:30 |
nikolam | I have a feeling, like it does not work for my interests. My own system. But I have no clue what it is doing. And I think it is all about having an OS. | 13:31 |
nikolam | Anyway, I am looking on fixing next leak, video lense. | 13:32 |
popey | I find it difficult to understand the logic of someone who uses gmail, yet doesn't want data "leak" from their system. | 13:33 |
nikolam | popey, it is simple. Gmail has it usage case for public mail. And presents just right usage terms. | 13:34 |
nikolam | I routinely block google java scripts, DNS and google search. | 13:34 |
nikolam | I don't want my own system to be someone's shopping center. | 13:49 |

robin-gloster | hi, where would i report bugs on unity.ubuntu.com? | 22:52 |
Jswing | robin-gloster, no on https://launchpad.net/unity | 23:00 |
robin-gloster | Jswing do website bugs really belong there? | 23:01 |
Jswing | what do you mean by "website bugs" ? | 23:02 |
Jswing | You wan to report a bug on the unity website ? | 23:04 |
robin-gloster | Jswing: yep | 23:04 |
robin-gloster | http://unity.ubuntu.com/getinvolved/development/unity/ after building nux it should be added that unity-env must be called so that unity will build succesfully | 23:08 |
Jswing | Then I think you are on the right channel but you should ask your question on european working hours | 23:12 |
robin-gloster | Jswinng: qill do | 23:14 |
robin-gloster | will* | 23:14 |
