Thank you, very helpful and grammatically incorrect. Any other takers?
I've been using GNU/Linux exclusively for almost 10 years, but my
girlfriend is a professional photographer and uses Photoshop (and
hates Gimp), so sadly I have to dual-boot with Windows.

I figured I'd file this as a bug, but I thought maybe it's just a
mistake I made so I thought I'd ask you guys for help first.
