Unsolving Ubuntu on Macbook Issue: App Switching by Two Finger Scrolling

I think this was a problem or bug caused by Ubuntu installed on Macbook. However this is a new feature of Ubuntu supporting multitouch devices. Occasionally, when I placed my two finger (I didn't realize the third) on Mac touchpad, the application switcher appears and select a window app from switcher. It was annoying me at the first, but when I know this is a new feature, I realize my fault (my third finger erratic touch the pad), and get benefit of it.

App switcher appears erratic on Ubuntu on Mac

Yes, this was three fingers tap followed by hold to switch between app windows, not two fingers. The explanation is given below. Yatta! Canonical and Ubuntu are struggling hard to make multitouch devices working perfectly.

The best solution is to adapt it, not to disable it. By time it will be improved and here is the current list:

Kenapa Memakai Ubuntu?



Ada 10 + 1 alasan kenapa saya, dan anda seharusnya juga, memakai Ubuntu:
  1. The most sophisticated OS
  2. Ya! Ubuntu adalah sistem operasi (operating system, OS) tercanggih saat ini. Tidak percaya? bandingkan ketiga screenshot OS berikut (Windows, Mac dan Ubuntu) dalam membuka/mencari aplikasi dan anda bisa menentukan sendiri sistem operasi mana yang terbaik (dari kiri: Ubuntu, Mac, Windows).
  3. Ubuntu is, always has been, and always will be, FREE.
  4. Ini adalah janji dari Canonical sebagai perusahaan pendukung Ubuntu. Janji tidak sekedar janji, tapi harus ditepati. Dan selama 10 tahun sejak 2004 sampai sekarang, janji mereka terbukti dipenuhi.
  5. Super fast, it makes you productive!
  6. Bila sama-sama menginstall Windows, Mac dan Ubuntu secara fresh install, maka akan dapat dilihat OS mana yang lebih cepat secara keseluruhan proses. Dan saya sudah membuktikannya, Ubuntu adalah yang paling cepat secara umum. Dalam hal booting time, shutdown time, launch aplikasi, dll Ubuntu yang tercepat. Dalam satu-dua hal, bisa jadi windows dan Mac lebih cepat tapi tidak untuk semua hal. Unity Dash is center of our computing experience ! it makes us productive! (bila anda mendapati Ubuntu lambat dalam komputer anda, itu artinya ada yang tidak beres, something wrong in your system).
