Ubuntu Lucid, all updates installed
1. Install something in Ubuntu Software Center.
2. Click on the key icon that appears in the panel.
What happens: The key is a menu containing one item, "Drop all elevated privileges".
I don't understand this, and I therefore arrogantly assume that most people won't understand it either. :-) Does it do anything useful? If so, it should be reworded to express its usefulness. If not, it should be removed. |
