Comment 270 for bug 11334

@matteo sisti sette (matteosistisette):

"Reported by Arandonohue on 2004-12-20". That's indeed more than 6 years, but it's even more than 7 years. Besides that, it's been more than 7 years the bug was reported on Ubuntu's Launchpad, but this bug is way older. Even before Ubuntu existed, this bug already existed and was to be found in Linux distributions which existed 10 years ago.

Don't expect this bug to be fixed, because developers just don't care about this bug. If you want to get rid of this bug, then there's only one solution: Don't use this crap anymore. Install Windows or buy a Mac (or try to install Mac OS X on a regular PC). That's the only solution.

My advice is to buy a Mac. I know they aren't cheap, but I did so and it works great. It's just absolutely gorgeous. Everything just works as it's supposed to.

Just get rid of Linux completely. Using another distribution isn't an option, because it's all the same crap. Linux is only good for servers which run without a GUI, it's just not designed for desktops. For your desktop there are only two operatings systems which really work: Windows and Mac OS X (although I'm so sure about the first one, but it's way better than any Linux distribution available.)
