Comment 62 for bug 99740

Maxadamo,

Workarounds are just that, workarounds. They are not fixes, but rather a temporary way to get something to stop happening. In my case, one of those workarounds helped. I'm sorry that they didn't work for you.

That all said, please try to remember that the folks here trying to assist us are volunteers. They don't get paid for their time; they are doing us a favor, so please do keep nasty comments to yourself! They are doing what they can, the best they can. They are not God almighty. Cut 'em some slack!

Taipan, I for one appreciate your attempts to help, and I am sure that there are many more like myself, probably far more of us than the Maxadamo's.

I'm sorry to take up the bandwidth on this forum, I realize that it is not a message board, but I just could not let the comment pass without an answer from us who appreciate all the volunteer effort.

Thank you!

Rob Smith

Same happens here on Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10 with:
Compiz + Gnome + FF 3.0.5 with or without Emerald.

I suspect all workaround are somehow crappy, as they have side effects.
On of these workaround will not allow to properly see flash movies
(maybe in full screen), other workaround don't work at all, other that I
found in Internet looks more like wizardry and make no sens at all.

Taipan: I would suggest to suspend your account here. The reason would
be: demonstrated and full-blown idiocy. What do you think about?
