Hardy Heron

Ubuntu Logo Linux jaux.netI installed Hardy in my Lenovo Y410 half an hour ago. Most hardware (monitor, video card, wireless card, wireless mouse, webcam, etc.) work out of box, but like 7.10, the sound card still requires some efforts to make it work. In software, Gimp is upgraded to 2.4.5, OpenOffice.org now is in version 2.4 and Firefox 3 beta 5 is installed as default.

Checkbox! For what?

Update: tombyong informed me that those checkboxes were gone about 2.5 hours after this post. Thanks, tombyong!

When I logged in my iGoogle today, I immediately spotted a change in the Gmail gadget: There is a checkbox sitting beside each Email title!

IMAGE IS MISSING, SORRY!

When I saw these checkboxes, I thought the Gmail gadget would finally add “Delete” and/or “Report Spam” features, so that I could do “More Actions” right within my iGoogle. But After searching and searching around the gadget, I couldn’t find any new feature out there…

So, what are these checkboxes for? Is it a mistake or is anything new undergoing there?
