I don't believe the specific distro is that important (correct me if I am wrong)
After spending days searching for answers and trying to figure out solutions myself, I gave up (before I loose any more of my hair).
Below are a list of questions of problems, issues, quirks etc. Please do NOT 'Quote' the entire post when responding (it makes things simpler).
1. Opened programs do not have tabs/icons in the bottom panel (Task Bar). How can you switch focus between multiple open programs if there aren't any showing in the bottom 'Panel'? If you minimize them, how can you restore them back?
2. Disable authenticate every time you open certain 'tools'.
3. Device Manager equivalent that shows ALL devices, not just certain ones (the video card). If you want to update/change a specific device, how can you do it?
4. Remember resizing printer properties (especially when the list doesn't fit even with it extended).
5. Hack to disable the 'Shift' key.
6. Remove the 'Home' folder and any 'mounted' drives/partitions that you don't want there (without actually unmounting them).
7. 'Name' column resized smaller so that all the columns don't occupy the entire windows width to give a empty space to click on if the folder list is longer than the window can show?
8. No 'Trash' icon shown on desktop (need for quicker access).
9. Modify the date column shown in File Manager to remove the unnecessary day (not date) & time zone.
Thanks in advance!
