I would like to have some kind of Software integrated that automatically installs windows drivers from their CDs, floppy disks.
Also, some sort of automatic drivers update on startup or shutdown, preferably the latter. I bricked my AGP graphics card and the whole X display couldn't start because there were no drivers loaded for the onboard one. Integrating some sort of "backup VGA or DVI drivers" would be nice.It should be easy enough for a script to tell when there's enough hardware for x number of seats. I have two gpu's, two plugged in mice, two plugged in keyboards, and two monitors of equal specs. They wanted to give nf the axe with Ubuntu Hardy, and not having to use it to set up multiple seats would be wonderful. Auto detection of multiple seats would be a life saver.
exe programs easier, such as Internet explorer and iTunes, without having to go through Wine etc. The Ubuntu promise would remain intact since it states that Ubuntu (the software) will always be free of charge. Not only would this make Ubuntu profitable for Canonical Ltd., but it would promote Ubuntu as the best end-user deal while encouraging a healthy competitive race with DELL and others. could market that system that would be flawless since it would have native drivers and it would have been tested. makers (VIA, Intel, ATI, etc) so they build one robust system with open-source native Linux drivers (along with all the bells and whistles of native support) once and for all. Mark Shuttleworth could make an investment with motherboard, graphic/audio card, printer, etc.
could do the same and use the revenues to further support the Ubuntu project. DELL is making lots of money by selling computers pre-loaded with Ubuntu Linux while Canonical Ltd. should start offering their own built systems just like DELL is doing. Please add bugs to where they will get the attention they deserveįor suggesting bounties add the suggestion to BountyProposalsĬanonical Ltd.
