Non-blocking bugs
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
release upgrade tool:
|
||||
- migrate to pkexec
|
||||
- make sure timeshift config is in place
|
||||
- make sure mdm isn't in use anymore
|
||||
- suggestions:
|
||||
- Re-enable 3rd party repositories after upgrade. A backup of the APT sources gets stored in ./Upgrade-Backup/APT but the tutorial didn't cover this or what to do with it (probably best to just find what the 3rd party repositories were and re-enable them manually from instructions on their website). Important for things like Google Chrome.
|
||||
- mintupgrade replaces user modified configuration files in /etc without prompting, leaving .dpkg-old files behind. Perhaps cover this tidbit in the tutorial.
|
||||
|
||||
artwork:
|
||||
- MyPaint and Pinta have the same icon
|
||||
- Firefox bookmarks don’t use the folder color picked in the Cinnamon theme setting.

@@ -24,29 +80,21 @@ cinnamon:
|
||||
- Application switcher items are not properly selected https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/7623
|
||||
- NFS mount not visible in Nemo left menu. How to reproduce: install nfs-common, mount NFS folder.
|
||||
- Even after authorize Samba in gufw, Nemo doesn’t show the local network and machine on it. I must manually type smb://user@ip to get in (after workgroup and password) In Mint 18 that was directly available.
|
||||
- ccc: in color plugin, add a profile, browse it and click "View details". If gnome-color-manager is not installed, the plugin should ask packagekit (over dbus) to install it. This doesn't work.
|
||||
- If the screen is rotated, then the touch screen digitiser and trackpad both move the cursor in a direction mirrored to what is expected ie move your finger to the left on the screen and the cursor moves to the right. This works properly in Gnome.
|
||||
- When in tablet mode (that is, the screen is rotated and covering the keyboard) the RotateWindows key doesn't work anymore... It just does nothing...
|
||||
- menu-editor: picking a pixmap in /usr/share/pixmaps for a category results in no icon being shown in the menu.
|
||||
- Unable to unlock the screensaver via LDAP with libpam-ldap and nscd packages installed pointing to an openldap server.
|
||||
- csd power: https://github.com/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/82af1816f32a26f28027ea7ce8edc79cd833bc76
|
||||
|
||||
- gist-paste still used in xapps/mintsystem
|
||||
- slick greeter: On a VirtualBox setup with three users, if any user but the first is auto given focus, the username is present but the box only has half height, cut off with no password entry lower half. You can type where that password entry half of the box would be , and it works, but the characters don't show, so it's a visual display problem, only apparently happening on boot.
|
||||
- Gnome calendar does not have an icon on the top left in the new Gnome decorations, only a cog icon is shown.

gnome-system-monitor moves out of place in Expo

When using Cinnamon bar at top, and secondary monitor with higher height than the main display, some apps like KDE Apps (Krita, Kdenlive) or Wine Based Apps (teamviewer) will display menus from toolbar in the wrong place. Being more specific: The menus will be displayed in the position that they should be displayed at main monitor, however in this case the window is maximized in the secondary monitor.
