A Week With GNOME As My Linux Desktop: What They Get Right & Wrong - Page 4 - GNOME Settings
|
||||
================================================================================
|
||||
### Settings ###
|
||||
|
||||
There are a few specific KDE Control modules that I am going to pick at, mostly because they are so laughable horrible compared to their gnome counter-part that its honestly pathetic.
|
||||
|
||||
First one up? Printers.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Gnome is on the left, KDE is on the right. You know what the difference is between the printer applet on the left, and the one on the right? When I opened up Gnome Control Center and hit "Printers" the applet popped up and nothing happened. When I opened up KDE System Settings and hit "Printers" I got a password prompt. Before I was even allowed to LOOK at the printers I had to give up ROOT'S password.
|
||||
|
||||
Let me just re-iterate that. In this, the days of PolicyKit and Logind, I am still being asked for Root's password for what should be a sudo operation. I didn't even SETUP root's password when I installed the system. I had to drop down to Konsole and run 'sudo passwd root' so that I could GIVE root a password so that I could go back into System Setting's printer applet and then give up root's password to even LOOK at what printers were available. Once I did that I got prompted for root's password AGAIN when I hit "Add Printer" then I got prompted for root's password AGAIN after I went through and selected a printer and driver. Three times I got asked for ROOT'S password just to add a printer to the system.
|
||||
|
||||
When I added a printer under Gnome I didn't get prompted for my SUDO password until I hit "Unlock" in the printer applet. I got asked once, then I never got asked again. KDE, I am begging you... Adopt Gnome's "Unlock" methodology. Do not prompt for a password until you really need one. Furthermore, whatever library is out there that allows for KDE applications to bypass PolicyKit / Logind (if its available) and prompt directly for root... Bin that code. If this was a multi-user system I either have to give up root's password, or be there every second of every day in order to put it in any time a user might have to update, change, or add a new printer. Both options are completely unacceptable.
|
||||
|
||||
One more thing...
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Question to the forums: What looks cleaner to you? I had this realization when I was writing this article: Gnome's applet makes it very clear where any additional printers are going to go, they set aside a column on the left to list them. Before I added a second printer to KDE, and it suddenly grew a left side column, I had this nightmare-image in my head of the applet just shoving another icon into the screen and them being listed out like preview images in a folder of pictures. I was pleasantly surprised to see that I was wrong but the fact that the applet just 'grew' another column that didn't exist before and drastically altered its presentation is not really 'good' either. It's a design that's confusing, shocking, and non-intuitive.
|
||||
|
||||
Enough about printers though... Next KDE System Setting that is up for my public stoning? Multimedia, Aka Phonon.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
As always, Gnome's on the left, KDE is on the right. Let's just run through the Gnome setting first... The eyes go left to right, top to bottom, right? So let's do the same. First up: volume control slider. The blue hint against the empty bar with 100% clearly marked removes all confusion about which way is "volume up." Immediately after the slider is an easy On/Off toggle that functions a mute on/off. Points to Gnome for remembering what the volume was set to BEFORE I muted sound, and returning to that same level AFTER I press volume-up to un-mute. Kmixer, you amnesiac piece of crap, I wish I could say as much about you.
|
||||
|
||||
Moving on! Tabbed options for Output, Input and Applications? With per application volume controls within easy reach? Gnome I love you more and more with every passing second. Balance options, sound profiles, and a clearly marked "Test Speakers" option.
|
||||
|
||||
I'm not sure how this could have been implemented in a cleaner, more concise way. Yes, it's just a Gnome-ized Pavucontrol but I think that's the point. Pavucontrol got it mostly right to begin with, the Sound applet in Gnome Control Center just refines it slightly to make it even closer to perfect.
|
||||
|
||||
Phonon, you're up. And let me start by saying: What the fsck am I looking at? -I- get that I am looking at the priority list for the audio devices on the system, but the way it is presented is a bit of a nightmare. Also where are the things the user probably cares about? A priority list is a great thing to have, it SHOULD be available, but it's something the user messes with once or twice and then never touches again. It's not important, or common, enough to warrant being front and center. Where's the volume slider? Where's per application controls? The things that users will be using more frequently? Well.. those are under Kmix, a separate program, with its own settings and configuration... not under the System Settings... which kind of makes System Settings a bit of a misnomer. And in that same vein, Let's hop over to network settings.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Presented above is the Gnome Network Settings. KDE's isn't included because of the reason I'm about to hit on. If you go to KDE's System Settings and hit any of the three options under the "Network" Section you get tons of options: Bluetooth settings, default username and password for Samba shares (Seriously, "Connectivity" only has 2 options: Username and password for SMB shares. How the fsck does THAT deserve the all-inclusive title "Connectivity"?), controls for Browser Identification (which only work for Konqueror...a dead project), proxy settings, etc... Where's my wifi settings? They aren't there. Where are they? Well, they are in the network applet's private settings... not under Network Settings...
|
||||
|
||||
KDE, you're killing me. You have "System Settings" USE IT!

将GNOME作为我的Linux桌面的一周: 他们做对的与做错的 - 第四节 - GNOME设置
|
||||
================================================================================
|
||||
### Settings设置 ###
|
||||
|
||||
在这我要挑一挑几个特定KDE控制模块的毛病,大部分原因是因为相比它们的对手GNOME来说,糟糕得太可笑,实话说,真是悲哀。
|
||||
|
||||
第一个接招的?打印机。
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
GNOME在左,KDE在右。你知道左边跟右边的打印程序有什么区别吗?当我在GNOME控制中心打开“打印机”时,程序窗口弹出来了,之后没有也没发生。而当我在KDE系统设置打开“打印机”时,我收到了一条密码提示。甚至我都没能看一眼打印机呢,我就必须先交出ROOT密码。
|
||||
|
||||
让我再重复一遍。在今天,PolicyKit和Logind的日子里,对一个应该是sudo的操作,我依然被询问要求ROOT的密码。我安装系统的时候甚至都没设置root密码。所以我必须跑到Konsole去,然后运行'sudo passwd root'命令,这样我才能给root设一个密码,这样我才能回到系统设置中的打印程序,然后交出root密码,然后仅仅是看一看哪些打印机可用。完成了这些工作后,当我点击“添加打印机”时,我再次收到请求ROOT密码的提示,当我解决了它后再选择一个打印机和驱动时,我再次收到请求ROOT密码的提示。仅仅是为了添加一个打印机到系统我就收到三次密码请求。
|
||||
|
||||
而在GNOME下添加打印机,在点击打印机程序中的”解锁“之前,我没有收到任何请求SUDO密码的提示。整个过程我只被请求过一次,仅此而已。KDE,求你了……采用GNOME的”解锁“模式吧。不到一定需要的时候不要发出提示。还有,不管是哪个库,只要它允许KDE应用程序绕过PolicyKit/Logind(如果有的话)并直接请求ROOT权限……那就把它封进箱里吧。如果这是个多用户系统,那我要么必须交出ROOT密码,要么我必须时时刻刻呆着以免有一个用户需要升级、更改或添加一个新的打印机。而这两种情况都是完全无法接受的。
|
||||
|
||||
有还一件事……
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
给论坛的问题:怎么样看起来更简洁?我在写这篇文章时意识到:当有任何的附加打印机准备好时,Gnome打印机程序会把过程做得非常简洁,它们在左边上放了一个竖直栏来列出这些打印机。而我在KDE添加第二台打印机时,它突然增加出一个左边栏来。而在添加之前,我脑海中已经有了一个恐怖的画面它会像图片文件夹显示预览图一样,直接插入另外一个图标到界面里去。我很高兴也很惊讶的看到我是错的。但是事实是它直接”长出”另外一个从末存在的竖直栏,彻底改变了它的界面布局,而这样也称不上“好”。终究还是一种令人困惑,奇怪而又不直观的设计。
|
||||
|
||||
打印机说得够多了……下一个接受我公开石刑的KDE系统设置是?多媒体,即Phonon。
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
一如既往,GNOME在左边,KDE在右边。让我们先看看GNOME的系统设置先……眼睛从左到右,从上到下,对吧?来吧,就这样做。首先:音量控制滑条。滑条中的蓝色条与空白条百分百清晰地消除了哪边是“音量增加”的困惑。在音量控制条后马上就是一个On/Off开关,用来开关静音功能。Gnome的再次得分在于静音后能记住当前设置的音量,而在点击音量增加按钮取消静音后能回到原来设置的音量中来。Kmixer,你个健忘的垃圾,我真的希望我能多讨论你。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
继续!输入输出和应用程序的标签选项?每一个应用程序的音量随时可控?Gnome,每过一秒,我爱你越深。均衡的选项设置,声音配置,和清晰地标上标志的“测试麦克风”选项。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
我不清楚它能否以一种更干净更简洁的设计实现。是的,它只是一个Gnome化的Pavucontrol,但我想这就是重要的地方。Pavucontrol在这方面几乎完全做对了,Gnome控制中心中的“声音”应用程序的改善使它向完美更进了一步。
|
||||
|
||||
Phonon,该你上了。但开始前我想说:我TM看到的是什么?我知道我看到的是音频设备的权限列表,但是它呈现的方式有点太坑。还有,那些用户可能关心的那些东西哪去了?拥有一个权限列表当然很好,它也应该存在,但问题是权限列表属于那种用户乱搞一两次之后就不会再碰的东西。它还不够重要,或者说常用到可以直接放在正中间位置的程度。音量控制滑块呢?对每个应用程序的音量控制功能呢?那些用户使用最频繁的东西呢?好吧,它们在Kmix中,一个分离的程序,拥有它自己的配置选项……而不是在系统设置下……这样真的让“系统设置”这个词变得有点用词不当。
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
上面展示的Gnome的网络设置。KDE的没有展示,原因就是我接下来要吐槽的内容了。如果你进入KDE的系统设置里,然后点击“网络”区域中三个选项中的任何一个,你会得到一大堆的选项:蓝牙设置,Samba分享的默认用户名和密码(说真的,“连通性(Connectivity)”下面只有两个选项:SMB的用户名和密码。TMD怎么就配得上“连通性”这么大的词?),浏览器身份验证控制(只有Konqueror能用……一个已经倒闭的项目),代理设置,等等……我的wifi设置哪去了?它们没在这。哪去了?好吧,它们在网络应用程序的设置里面……而不是在网络设置里……
|
||||
|
||||
KDE,你这是要杀了我啊,你有“系统设置”当凶器,拿着它动手吧!
