Which version of Ubuntu are you using? On my jaunty installation I see
'Edit' button in the top toolbar. When I click it the sidebar changes
to show buttons 'Crop', 'Red eye reduction', 'Desaturate', 'Sepia
tine', 'Straighten', 'Soft focus', 'Auto color', 'Adjust colors'.

I also see timeline just above a photo in 'Browse' mode and IIRC the
timeline has been there since Hardy.
