[Bug 1409434] Re: System Settings for mobile on PC

 

The "gnome-control-center" package does not seem to be installed
although there are some folders to do with it on my system, but I only
know that from searching in "Computer" for "gnome-control-center".

When typing it in in command-line I get this response (without double-quotes):
"
The program 'gnome-control-center' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install gnome-control-center
"


When searching for "gnome-control-center" in "Computer" these are the result: gnome-control-center_search_results.bmp

Title:
  System Settings for mobile on PC

Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Confirmed
Status in unity-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The other day I searched for the phrase "System settings" in my dash.
  And this is what came up: System_Settings_Gears.bmp

  I was rather confused by the second "System Settings" one with clock
  like gears which appeared, so I right-clicked on it for more
  information: System_Settings_Gear_Details.bmp

  I then went and opened this seconds "System Settings" which said that
  it is used for phones, tablets and convergent devices. And this is
  what I got: System_Settings_Phone.bmp

  I also went into each section and it really looked like those were the
  settings for a phone, it even had a vibration mode which was on, and
  lots of settings to do with mobile networks.

  Then I decided to search for it in the Ubuntu Software Centre, and I
  found it and its page (as you can see the "Remove" button is greyed
  out): System_Settings_Gears_UbuntuSoftwareCentre.bmp

  I installed Ubuntu on my machine a few weeks before it claims that the
  second "System Settings" was installed. I also have a VM running the
  same up-to-date version of Ubuntu that I have and that does not have
  this second "System Settings installed on it, so it is probably not
  something that is meant to be installed there in some update or
  something.

  Also when I was turning my computer off and I clicked the Shutdown
  button on the dialog which asks you if you would like to Shutdown or
  Restart, and my screen froze for about two seconds and then this image
  with a dotted border around it flashed on my screen for a split second
  (it was too quick to take a screenshot of so this is the best that I
  have got): System_Settings_Phone.bmp

  I asked a question about it here:
  https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/260452 And was told
  that I should report it as a bug. So that is what I am doing.

  All images which have been referred to in this bug report are attached
