handle utf-8, see comments on http://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/171
|
||
|
||
upgrade LO to 5.0.6?
|
||
|
||
Linux Mint 18.1
|
||
===============
|
||
|
||
switch ntp to chrony?
|
||
|
||
firefox:
|
||
enable bookmark toolbar by default
|
||
enable plugins by default
|
||
|
||
review logind.conf changes in:
|
||
MATE
|
||
Xfce
|
||
KDE
|
||
|
||
system
|
||
consider adding snapd
|
||
consider adding support for xdg-apps, flatpack
|
||
consider enabling recommends
|
||
|
||
mint-tools:
|
||
in MATE, window icons aren't set properly when the icon is placed in /usr/share/pixmaps
|
||
|
||
cinnamon 3.2
|
||
mouse/touchpad: fix sensitivity settings (shouldn't be inverted... should be described as motion-threshold or even better, as what they actually do). Also, add a way to reset their value.
|
||
actions in panel launchers aren't translated if not present in .desktop file
|
||
add cinnamon-session and cinnamon-settings-daemon to Launchpad/cinnamon-translations
|
||
vertical panels
|
||
retire boxpointers
|
||
remove plug/socket in screensaver
|
||
applets
|
||
menu: adopt this layout (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/The-Panacea-Projects/Gnomenu/master/Screenshot.png), same as ours/mintmenu, only better.
|
||
add a printer applet
|
||
sound: add an option to switch sound to HDMI when an HDMI output device is plugged
|
||
hidpi issues: top of mint menu is cut off in HiDPI (1920×1280)
|
||
gnome-system-monitor moves out of place in Expo
|
||
when battery is very low, battery icon isn't red.. 2% charge, with less than 5 minutes to go, still not red.. bar is red in CCC, icon is red in notification.. but not in applet (and also not in the CCC icon itself either)
|
||
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.
|
||
menu: use search providers to search local files
|
||
launcher: check budgie app suggestions
|
||
Is there any reason why there are two names for the same item, eg. "Trash" and "Rubbish Bin"? Would it be better to standardise on only one name?
|
||
add gnome-screenshot to panel, right-click and select "Take screenshot of a selected area". This runs gnome-screenshot -a.. it should work but it doesn't. Is it because of the panel launcher capturing the click event or something?
|
||
In Nemo, when I click on File System, followed by File and Properties, it gives me the details of the Home folder, not the File System, so it’s difficult to determine disk space of overall operating system.
|
||
In Nemo, if i select a new tab, the folder name that appears in the tab appears with a separation line underneath, separating the tab name from the list of files in the folder. This style of separation is onconsistent to XED, where the Tab name and content under that tab have no such visible horizontal separation line.
|
||
Setting the screensaver to turn on but not require a password is very confusing. I have to go to set “Lock the computer when put to sleep” to “No” (because I don’t want it to require a password); set “Lock the computer when the screen turns off” to “No” (because, again, I don’t want it to require a password); and then set “Lock the computer when inactive” to a time value to have the screensaver come on. (I’m not even sure that I’ve got that right.) The problem is that “lock the computer” implies that it’s going to require a password — but I don’t want that, I simply want the screensaver to kick in. This is a poorly worded dialog box.
|
||
consider merging worldclock https://github.com/simonwiles/cinnamon_applets
|
||
network applet: if possible, add a little refresh icon to ask for a new scan
|
||
system settings modules don't use the icon (in alt-tab, and window list) associated with the menu item
|
||
Bluetooth panel icon was nicer when it was monochromatic (do we need blueberry to provide a cinnamon applet?)
|
||
nemo: Touch screen clicks are not working in the icon and compact view section of Nemo, everywhere else seems fine.
|
||
When connecting with PEAP authentication, the network manager applet just gets stuck instead of prompting for credentials.
|
||
ability to lock desklets?
|
||
When scrolling down in the Menu smoothly, icons/items leave some “traces” behind, if you can call it that
|
||
Nemo get blank icons after set “Show text in icons” to “Always” or “Local Files Only”.
|
||
cinnamon crashed to Fallback while Winetricks was installing an app, Irfanview. It was in the procedure where the installer writes launchers to the desktop.
|
||
mouse motion settings reset themselves after a while?
|
||
constantly getting a NEMO “thumbnail error” when I open photo directories (no videos) I haven’t visited in a while.
|
||
Clock takes up about 30-60 seconds to update the hour after waking up the system from sleeping. Can we get a signal on wakeup?
|
||
|
||
mate 1.16
|
||
swith MATE to GTK3
|
||
switch mintmenu to GTK3
|
||
sound events vs sound themes
|
||
multi-monitor: caja doesn't always show the desktop on the primary monitor (using a laptop as main/left monitor, and HDMI screen with higher res on the right, it surprisingly ends up showing icons on the right screen)
|
||
|
||
libindicator++?
|
||
|
||
xed
|
||
sublime-like search bar
|
||
some icons are named and other not, for example, Open, Save and Undo are named, yet Print, Cut and Paste are not.
|
||
Would like to see a RED warning bar with Xed when in root edit mode as with the former Gedit in 17.3.
|
||
|
||
xreader
|
||
should place its menu item in the accessories category instead of office
|
||
|
||
xplayer/xviewer/xreader/pix
|
||
add a persistant option to blank other monitors when in full screen
|
||
visualizations don't work
|
||
|
||
xapps
|
||
should show their project name in the about dialog
|
||
|
||
pix
|
||
should use a generic name in the application menu
|
||
|
||
xviewer
|
||
“Date in statusbar” doesn’t work.
|
||
“Disable Dark Theme” doesn’t work, if i’m right when i assume it should do “gsettings set org.x.viewer.view use-background-color false”?
|
||
“Hide Titlebar” not sure what it should do…?
|
||
“Export to Folder”, “Fullscreen Background”, “Python Console” and “Slideshow Shuffle” can’t be activated. in the moment they get grayed out and a tool-tip says “The plugin ‘XXX’ could not be loaded – An error occurred: Plugin loader ‘python3’ was not found”
|
||
after a fullscreen-view the sidebar is gone and must be enabled manually again.
|
||
please make the position (left/right, top/bottom won’t make much sense) of the sidebar configurable (like the gallery) at least via dconf!
|
||
|
||
mintupdate:
|
||
provide a CLI (to let people upgrade automatically)
|
||
add shortcut keys
|
||
|
||
mintwelcome:
|
||
consider accompanying the user and hinting at things he/she might want to do (codecs, popular settings, popular apps etc..) - check chalet OS' startpoint ideas
|
||
|
||
mintsources:
|
||
Select all button in foreign pkgs: https://github.com/linuxmint/mintsources/issues/59
|
||
menu icon shouldn't be hardcoded
|
||
|
||
mintinstall:
|
||
when apt cache is missing, it just says not available. Instead it could tell the user or even help the user to refresh the cache.
|
||
redesign main page to feature essential apps
|
||
|
||
mintmenu:
|
||
focus issues reported in /var/log/syslog
|
||
|
||
blueberry:
|
||
cinnamon applet?
|
||
|
||
use aptdaemon?
|
||
aptdaemon doesn't work in LMDE and is being abandoned upstream
|
||
in mintupdate, remove dep on synaptic, remove admin rights for checkAPT.py
|
||
in mintwelcome and codec menu entry, switch from apturl to aptdaemon
|
||
in mintsources, remove dep on synaptic
|
||
remove synaptic from default selection
|
||
remove synaptic from mintmenu's favorites
|
||
|
||
HiDPI support:
|
||
upstream apps using GTK2: Banshee, Gimp, Hexchat, VLC, Pidgin, Tomboy.
|
||
mint projects using GTK2: mdmsetup, mintinstall, mintsources, gksu, cinnamon's mount dialog (seen when asking for a password for an encrypted external HDD).
|
||
mintlocale: fixed-size flag icons
|
||
mintupload: use icon names rather than path to SVG
|
||
mintwelcome: don't use 32px png icons
|
||
|
||
artwork:
|
||
Tray icons are black with mint-y themes.
|
||
Mint-Y Icon theme doesn’t show document contents. Mint-X icon variants can show the content of a text file without any problems, but this is not the case with Mint-Y. If Mint-Y will never support such a feature, I would suggest using an icon that indicates a text file, rather than the blank placeholder icon.
|
||
Mint-Y themes Shade option is unavailable
|
||
mint-x-icons: in MATE (with a high panel), network status icons have a dark background in 32px and bigger. they would look much better in the panel with a transparent bg like other icons.
|
||
|
||
|
||
done:
|
||
cinnamon: sounds for notifications (needs to be configured in mint-artwork-cinnamon)
|
||
|
||
LMDE +1:
|
||
=========
|
||
|
||
bashrc: # colored GCC warnings and errors --> export GCC_COLORS='error=01;31:warning=01;35:note=01;36:caret=01;32:locus=01:quote=01' (won't work until gcc 4.9)
|
||
update grub (improves efi support)
|
||
history and completion in bashrc
|
||
install libhal1-flash by default
|
||
consider activating http://backports.debian.org/changes/jessie-backports.html
