| somerville32 | Plus you have to worry about possible exploits in Wine | 12:26 |
| Jester45 | yes first you have to get them to run then you have give them sudo ablities then somthing might happen | 12:26 |
| age6racer | But can we try to work out how to run something as sudo/gksudo from a launcher without having a terminal open pls? | 12:26 |
| maxamillion | Jester45: its not emulation? ... so you are saying wine is a functional installation of windows? | 12:26 |
| somerville32 | maxamillion, Neither. | 12:26 |
| Jester45 | maxamillion: its a layer | 12:26 |
| somerville32 | maxamillion, Wine is the windows api implemented in Linux | 12:27 |
| maxamillion | Jester45: layer is translation, translation is emulation | 12:27 |
| age6racer | The Wine developers don't like it being referred to as emulation. | 12:27 |
| somerville32 | maxamillion, Wine is not an emulator, Adam. | 12:27 |
| Jester45 | maxamillion: the wine server pretty much changes the commands from windows to linux | 12:27 |
| age6racer | But it's easier for people ot get their heads around if you do. | 12:27 |
| maxamillion | fine ... i | 12:27 |
| maxamillion | nvm | 12:27 |
| === somerville32 pats maxamillion on the head. | ||
| somerville32 | Good boy. | 12:27 |
| === maxamillion growls lightly | ||
| somerville32 | age6racer, Please just do as they suggest and modify the permission on the file. | 12:29 |
| maxamillion | either way, "translation" or "emulation" ... if a windows exploit is executed under wine with the correct permissions then it can exploit your linux system | 12:30 |
| age6racer | ok then | 12:30 |
| Jester45 | yep but you also have to have it working to get it to break somthing | 12:30 |
| somerville32 | maxamillion, It isn't a translation either | 12:30 |
| Jester45 | somerville32: API layer right? | 12:31 |
| maxamillion | somerville32: i really don't care ... i don't run windows or its software so the project could bork for all i care | 12:31 |
| somerville32 | Jester45: Yes. | 12:31 |
| somerville32 | Anyhow, I need to do real life stuff. | 12:31 |

| Jester45 | lol | 12:32 |

| Jester45 | maxamillion: no freelancer is first then xobox only becuase it has halo | 12:35 |

| maxamillion | i will admit that wine is a good project and will help alot of people make the migration to linux | 12:41 |
| Jester45 | maxamillion: it is it just needs to work better people that love windows and cant let go of parts of it dont want to search if the program works or not | 12:42 |

| maxamillion | Jester45: yeah ... the project is OLD too, they have come a long way, i remember 5 years ago when i spent an hour hacking at things to get starcraft to run on wine because my friends wanted to have a SC lan | 12:44 |
| maxamillion | vidd_laptop: never gonna happen | 12:44 |

| chris_ | can I uninstall gxine? | 01:04 |
| chris_ | if I try it says it wants to remove xubuntu desktop too | 01:04 |
| vidd_laptop | chris_ yes | 01:05 |
| vidd_laptop | removing xubuntu-desktop is harmless | 01:05 |
| somerville32 | Not exactly | 01:05 |
| vidd_laptop | it is a meta package that does not do anything, but required the default setup | 01:05 |
| chris_ | well all I'm saying is I don't need 2 media players | 01:06 |
| chris_ | so if it is going to be a real hassle to get rid of the one I don't use I'll leave it | 01:06 |
| vidd_laptop | somerville32, what harm is there of removing xubuntu-desktop? | 01:06 |
| chris_ | otherwise if there is a proper way of doing things tell me how please | 01:06 |
| cellofellow | depends on how xubuntu-desktop was installed whether it's harmless or not. | 01:07 |
| vidd_laptop | chris_, it is nothing to worry about | 01:07 |
| vidd_laptop | you can uninstall the xubuntu-desktop | 01:07 |

| age6racer | hey all. Does anyone know how to add sub-menu's and launchers to the xfce-menu | 01:08 |
| chris_ | apt-get I believe | 01:08 |
| cellofellow | then you're allright. | 01:09 |
| cellofellow | age6racer: right click it, and then Edit Menu. You can move the seperators around to make things look more together. | 01:09 |
| chris_ | ok to get rid of it? | 01:09 |
| chris_ | I'll try it then | 01:10 |

| chris_ | I think I want profile | 01:31 |

| cellofellow | for the profile prefs | 01:31 |
| maxamillion | cellofellow: i thought that was prefernces? | 01:31 |

| noalternative | also my version of xubuntu was upgraded from breezy to dapper, so that would have updated everything. I think? | 02:02 |

| vidd_laptop | i would | 02:04 |
| noalternative | yes, but it didn't come in a specific distro. | 02:04 |

| vidd_laptop | ic | 02:05 |
| noalternative | You had to use the ubuntu breezy disks to do a network install then install xubuntu_desktop with apt. | 02:05 |
| maxamillion | noalternative: i will warn that if you use update-manager to get from a previous release to edgy, it will probably fail ... there is a known critical bug that i don't think is fixed yet | 02:05 |
| vidd_laptop | you would be better advised to svae your data and do a clean install to edgy | 02:06 |

| noalternative | can you use update manager to just update within dapper? | 02:07 |
| maxamillion | noalternative: not sure, never used it ... to update within dapper i just do "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade" | 02:07 |
| noalternative | this works almost perfectly but for that one thing, so I don't want to wipe everything out over the thunar glitch. | 02:08 |

| cellofellow | why is it that in htop, qemu's time is 15h+, while X's time is only barely 1h, while has been running for much longer than qemu? | 03:30 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | It's cpu time, not regular time. | 03:31 |
| cellofellow | what's CPU time then? | 03:31 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | The amount of the cpu's time it's taken. | 03:31 |
| TheSheep | cellofellow: the time that cpu spent executing this process's commands | 03:31 |
| cellofellow | ok. so X has been mostly idle for these many hours, while qemu has been chugging away at high speed. | 03:32 |

| TheSheep | cellofellow: cpu it can get weird if you have mutliple cpus or cores :) | 03:43 |
| TheSheep | cellofellow: my university project used to use at least 16x more cpu time than wallclock time ;) | 03:44 |

| Jester45 | this open happens when i use the menu | 04:30 |
| cellofellow | that launcher should use gksudo, if it doesn't, fix it. | 04:30 |
| cellofellow | Feisty Xorg. Anybody? | 04:31 |
| Jester45 | its not launcher its part of the xfce menu | 04:31 |
| cellofellow | that's a launcher, a .desktop file, somewhere in /usr/share/applications | 04:31 |
| Jester45 | o and cellofellow whats the diffirence between Xfree86 and xorg | 04:32 |
| Jester45 | strange i didnt mess with that stuff | 04:32 |

| Torist | thanx | 04:54 |
| spasticteapot | Can anyone help me install Xubuntu off of a USB hard drive? | 04:54 |
| Jester45 | spasticteapot: how big is it | 04:55 |
| spasticteapot | I have a laptop that won't accept my PCMCIA CD-ROM drive as a boot device. | 04:55 |
| cellofellow | 8$ | 04:55 |
| spasticteapot | There's...23.5GB of free space. | 04:55 |
| Jester45 | o boot from then drive | 04:55 |
| spasticteapot | How? | 04:55 |
| Jester45 | i thought you ment install to | 04:55 |
| spasticteapot | No, I need to use the hard drive in place of a CD-ROM drive. | 04:55 |
| cellofellow | I just used QEMU to install Feisty from an ISO image. Took 16 hours of CPU time, about 18 real time. | 04:56 |
| cellofellow | that won't work. | 04:56 |
| spasticteapot | QEMU? | 04:56 |
| spasticteapot | Feisty? | 04:56 |
| spasticteapot | There's a new Ubuntu already? | 04:56 |
| cellofellow | it's an emulator | 04:56 |
| cellofellow | !feisty | 04:56 |
| ubotu | The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1 | 04:56 |
| Jester45 | and in devolopment | 04:56 |
| cellofellow | not till April, thus it's 7.04 | 04:56 |
| === Jester45 thinks its no fun | ||
| cellofellow | I'm testing the ISO and I really want Linux 2.6.20 | 04:56 |
| spasticteapot | Ah. | 04:57 |
| crimsun | we're only at 2.6.20-rc5 | 04:57 |
| spasticteapot | All I know is that they're mad for not including a GUI wifi manager. | 04:57 |
| cellofellow | it should have usbvision working though, I hope. | 04:57 |
| cellofellow | Wifi Radar please! | 04:57 |
| spasticteapot | Yes! | 04:57 |
| spasticteapot | I'll take just about anything, though. | 04:57 |
| cellofellow | What would it take to get Radar in main? | 04:58 |
| spasticteapot | The problem is that often you don't have access to a wired connection, so you can't download it from a repository unless you can connect to wifi. | 04:58 |
| Torist | can someone PM me on how to setup an email server on xubuntu? | 04:58 |
| Torist | step by step | 04:58 |
| spasticteapot | Of course, configuring wifi from the command line is a huge, huge, huge headache. | 04:58 |

| Torist | ok, i tried all the mans online | 04:59 |
| Torist | no help, they were too complicated | 04:59 |
| somerville32 | Torist: Try #ubuntu-server | 04:59 |
| cellofellow | manpages are like that. | 04:59 |
| Torist | is there any email program that has a GUI | 04:59 |
| Torist | that anyone knows about | 04:59 |
| Torist | oh | 04:59 |

| spasticteapot | Mozilla Thunderbird? | 04:59 |

| cellofellow | you could put thec ISO on there are use QEMU, but that would take all day. And you would have to use the alt CD, not Live. | 05:01 |

| Jester45 | pop harddrive out and install on a diffrent computer? | 05:02 |

| Jester45 | yeps | 05:21 |
| Jester45 | no pages to turn | 05:22 |
| cellofellow | sorry, that book 15MB and it's going as fast as it can. | 05:22 |
| Jester45 | hehe 13.26mb on my end | 05:22 |
| Jester45 | its ok its not dail up speed | 05:22 |
| cellofellow | crimsun: is /dev/dsp the input on my soudcard by default. | 05:22 |
| crimsun | cellofellow: only for oss emulation. | 05:23 |
| cellofellow | hmm. what would the input device on my soundcard be? I'm trying to use VLC and V4L to digitize videotapes. | 05:24 |
| Jester45 | crimsun: how do you know so much | 05:24 |
| cellofellow | Jester45: he's a lot older than you. ;) | 05:24 |
| cellofellow | crimsun: ? | 05:25 |
| crimsun | cellofellow: default, or hw:0,0 if you must specify an explicit alsa device | 05:27 |

| cellofellow | so, /dev/dsp will work? | 05:27 |
| Jester45 | humm | 05:29 |
| crimsun | you don't want to use /dev/dsp unless you _have_ to | 05:30 |
| Jester45 | thats sweet | 05:30 |
| crimsun | that's the oss-emulated device | 05:30 |
| Jester45 | im encoding my dvds at allmost real time | 05:30 |
| cellofellow | what's a good video editor? Preferably lightweight, and not pro quality, mostly some clean-up and cutting. | 05:30 |
| cellofellow | crimsun: ok. when I open the Video4Linux tab in vlc, the default video device is /dev/video, which I changed to /dev/video0, and the default audio input device was /dev/dsp | 05:31 |
| crimsun | you don't have a /dev/video symlink? | 05:31 |
| cellofellow | oh, and good codec support for the video editor. I want to be able to DVD and YouTube the videos. | 05:32 |
| cellofellow | maybe... | 05:32 |
| Jester45 | oo | 05:32 |
| Jester45 | the transfer is done :) | 05:32 |
| cellofellow | no, no /dev/video, just /dev/video0 | 05:33 |
| === Jester45 hates youtube because its to low quality | ||
| cellofellow | yeah, it is low quality, but it works on my computer with Gnash and semi-sow internet. | 05:33 |
| cellofellow | semi-slow | 05:33 |
| cellofellow | crimsun: so, what do I put in the Video4Linux tab for audio in? | 05:34 |
| Jester45 | google video is a bit better | 05:37 |
| cellofellow | same company. | 05:37 |

| _3oo3 | hello hello! I'm considering using an ubuntu install, and I'm used to running openSUSE with gnome. What would be major differences between opensuse/gnome and xubuntu? | 06:44 |
| _3oo3 | (also not familiar with the xfce environ, so I may need breifed about that as well) | 06:44 |
| Schijnn | Are there any 3rd-party repos with more recent versions of packages than the official ones? | 06:45 |
| _3oo3 | also, what's the difference between 'Edgy Eft' and 'Dapper Drake'? | 06:46 |
| Schijnn | _3oo3: Edgy Eft is newer | 06:48 |
| cius | _3oo3 Edgy is the latest release, Dapper is the next to latest release, aka the 'long term service' release. | 06:48 |
| === jifengcao [n=jfc@218.94.9.35] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| maxamillion | _3oo3: the main differences will be xfce4 vs. gnome ... its a much more simplistic environment, it has all the features you need, none you don't and isn't redundant ... i recommend downloading the 6.10 edgy "desktop" cd which is a live cd and you can try it out before deciding if you would like to install it | 06:50 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about cinelera - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 07:34 |
| cellofellow | It'd be nice to have the audio capture and edit, and video capture and edit all in one app. If not, then I think I can manage capturing them seperatly and maybe possibly mix them in another app, I still need a video capturer. | 07:36 |
| === fish [n=yhy@222.94.145.99] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| maxamillion | apparently its the most kept secret ... i can't find anything about it on google other than some mentions of it in forums | 07:37 |
| cellofellow | what about a v4l2mpeg or v4l2avi program of some sort. I tried VLC and it balked. MPlayer doesn't even pretend to support V4L. A command-line capture program would be fine. Seeing as the video device doesn't support audio at all, at least when using component, I need something that can handle seperate devices, ALSA devices. | 07:39 |

| dosnlinux | can I edit config files if I use xubuntu, or do I have to use a special tool? | 07:30 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Editing config files works. | 07:30 |
| dosnlinux | yay! With Suse I had to do everything through Yast :P | 07:31 |
| dosnlinux | I heard rumors that xubuntu was going to have beryl installed by default | 07:32 |
| dosnlinux | are they true? | 07:32 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Lat I checked, they were considering that for Ubuntu for the next release. I'm not sure if they've decided anything yet. | 07:33 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | (They were still debating whether it should be done as default, as an option, not at all, and whether to use Compiz or Beryl if they did.) | 07:34 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | s/Lat/Last/ | 07:34 |
| dosnlinux | I hope not, at least not by default | 07:35 |
| dosnlinux | seems kinda counter productive for Ubuntu's objective, or at least my understanding of it | 07:36 |
| dosnlinux | at least having it installed by default | 07:37 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Not entirely - compositing managers offer some useful features. It would be counter intuitive if they included it in Xubuntu, which is targetted at low-spec machines. | 07:37 |
| dosnlinux | boy, I'm using "at least" a lot today :P | 07:37 |
| dosnlinux | I agree | 07:38 |
| dosnlinux | plus it's just one more thing to fit on a CD | 07:38 |
| dosnlinux | maybe they should have something like bubuntu that has it installed by default? | 07:39 |
| dosnlinux | then you could install it with a simple apt-get bubuntu desktop | 07:39 |
| dosnlinux | Is xubuntu "official" or is it a community led thing? | 07:41 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeByDefault <--- discussion on Composite by default, in case you're interested. | 07:41 |

| leobloom | I know the first bug is common and I've found a guy who explained how to fix it but he connected to the web and I can't do that on that laptop, it doesn't even have an ethernet! | 08:03 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | The menu disappearing can be fixed by replacing ~/.config/xfce4/desktop/menu.xml with /etc/xdg/xfce4/desktop/menu.xml. | 08:05 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | It's a backup default menu. | 08:05 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | What happened with the background image? | 08:05 |
| leobloom | well I'm a noob, how can I replace that? | 08:06 |
| leobloom | It doesn't charge it, it's a gif 2.3 mb thoguh and the laptop is an old PII 400 mhz 128 RAM, when I switch it off though I can see it for a ocuple of seconds, then it disappears | 08:07 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | In a terminal, run 'cp /etc/xdg/xfce4/desktop/menu.xml ~/.config/xfce4/desktop/menu.xml'. | 08:07 |
| Jester45 | leobloom: turn it off as in the laptop or just turning off the background | 08:08 |
| leobloom | what do you mean jester, sorry I haven't got. and btw, is that menu bug fixed on xubuntu 6.10? Will I have to manually fix it everytime it happens or is there some kind of patch? | 08:09 |
| leobloom | do you mean to turn the background off, that is, not to use any background? | 08:10 |
| Jester45 | no what did you mean by "It doesn't charge it, it's a gif 2.3 mb thoguh and the laptop is an old PII 400 mhz 128 RAM, when I switch it off though I can see it for a ocuple of seconds, then it disappears" are you switching off the laptop or just the backgrond | 08:11 |
| leobloom | that the laptop doesn't charge that image if I change the default background image on the desktop, but I can see it for some seconds as I switch the pc off, I suppose it's a ram memory but I'm not sure | 08:11 |

| Jester45 | it might be your screen but i dont think thats the problem it could be that the computer has the background at the bottom of the list of things to turn off so its the last thing | 08:12 |
| mAIJK | Hello! I want to install xubuntu on my lappy. But I only have one floppydisk. Is it possible? I do not have an CD-rom drive. I have the ISO on my drive and a network access. | 08:13 |

| Jester45 | he just opened somthings | 08:38 |
| leobloom | the speed | 08:38 |
| Jester45 | im about that fast | 08:39 |

| Jester45 | he need more ram | 08:44 |
| leobloom | uhm and what's an xserver in veery easy words?=o) | 08:44 |
| Jester45 | the thing that gives you windows and color and a gui | 08:45 |
| Jester45 | its non command line | 08:46 |
| leobloom | like gnome and xfce? | 08:46 |
| Jester45 | sorta | 08:46 |
| Jester45 | gnome and xfce are window mangers they control settings and resize the windows and things like that the xserver is what displayes things | 08:47 |
| leobloom | I evne thought about waiting for a stable verison of ubuntu lite or try the fluxbuntu but I've read it's still very buggy and from next month on I'll never have access to internet so I need quite a stable release | 08:47 |
| Jester45 | xubuntu is the light verson of ubuntu and its stable | 08:47 |
| leobloom | so gnome needs xserver too doesn't it? | 08:47 |
| Jester45 | yes | 08:47 |
| Jester45 | anything with a gui needs a xserver | 08:48 |
| Jester45 | !xserver | 08:48 |

| Jester45 | maybe PuMpErNiCkLe could explain a little better | 08:49 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | hm? | 08:50 |
| Jester45 | explain what a xserver is | 08:50 |
| leobloom | is there a way to make xfce even lighter? All in all the only softwares I need on my laptop are those of openoffice (it's a pain to load it though) and something to listen to music/watching a video like vlc | 08:51 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | An Xserver is a graphical input/output control. It creates windows, controls where they appear relative to each other, controls which gets focus, input from devices, etc. It controls the display elements common to all graphical programs. | 08:52 |
| Jester45 | mpayer is good for video | 08:52 |
| Jester45 | mplayer | 08:52 |
| leobloom | and what's the difference with gnome and xfce or fluxbox then? | 08:53 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | The desktop environment. | 08:53 |
| leobloom | but vlc is lighter and more versatile =o) I stil havetroubles to understand how to install something on linux from a source or a .deb package :D | 08:53 |
| Jester45 | gnome is slow fluxbox ugly and xfce is just right | 08:54 |
| leobloom | so to make things simple gnome comes after xserver? | 08:54 |
| Jester45 | from a deb you just double click | 08:54 |
| Jester45 | yes | 08:55 |
| leobloom | I've read I have to use the terminal and tell the pc I want to charge stuff from differante locaitons (either from a cdrom or from files I put on my desktop via usb stick) | 08:55 |
| Jester45 | no | 08:55 |
| Jester45 | like coping files? | 08:56 |
| leobloom | I simply look for the file I need from the repository and manually download everything hoping not to forget some dependencies, I'm collectiong them in a folder, as soon as I have enough of them I'l create a cdrom that my laptop can read and charge them from the cd... | 08:58 |

| decaelo | Yeah, it probably doesn't work out-of-the-box, more than likely you'll need tweaking. Even though it's an old computer, I think it should work as long as you can physically connect it inside the computer, I don't think there is a difference in architecture. | 09:15 |
| decaelo | I know Bluetooth didn't work with my computer when I first installed Ubuntu. | 09:16 |
| leobloom | uhm I'd like to have it done by a technicvian :D but the only two I know don't even know what ubuntu is so I fear their "deeds" :D | 09:16 |
| decaelo | LoL.. well, although the word Ubuntu isn't really IT jargon, I'd be more worried if you told him you were running Linux and he was like 'Whats Linux?' | 09:17 |

| decaelo | Yeah PC DVD-Roms are about twice the size of laptop drives... | 09:25 |
| dosnlinux | progress bar, the install continued once I plugged the net-cable in, but seemed to be stuck before that | 09:25 |

| leobloom | ahah it's a 1.0 usb and it's the only one I have, a friend of mine told me to use that usb with an adapter for ethernet to connect the laptop to the adsl modem but after seeing it he just laughed and said it's useless =o/ | 09:27 |
| dosnlinux | I'll try again next time I install | 09:28 |

| dosnlinux | should I report it if I am able to duplicate the problem? | 09:28 |
| decaelo | Yep. There are certain standards for reporting bugs.. you have to be able to dupe the bug being one of the standards. There are a few more, but they're listed on the page. | 09:29 |
| dosnlinux | OO.o seems to work fine | 09:29 |
| decaelo | Cool. Was it near the end of the install when it 'hung'? | 09:29 |
| dosnlinux | the first package (right before core) was skipped though | 09:30 |
| dosnlinux | yeah, It was about 85% installing packages | 09:30 |
| leobloom | brb | 09:31 |
| decaelo | cuz really the only thing I can think of, is that OO.o was near the end of install when it froze, finished the install, looked for a NIC, and hung like that as it searched (sometimes it can take a while), and perhaps the next step in the install was to configure network access | 09:31 |
| dosnlinux | configuring network was towards the begining | 09:31 |
| decaelo | Well, perhaps not necessarily something that configures the network, but tries to use it. | 09:32 |
| dosnlinux | it's the edgy alternate install cd if that helps | 09:32 |
| dosnlinux | any install logs I can check? | 09:33 |
| decaelo | That's what I am trying to figure out also... forgive me, I am not a guru yet :) | 09:34 |

| dotBL0t | can i ask you a question about apt in xubuntu? | 09:52 |

| === totalwor2age [n=worm@225-131.surfsnel.dsl.internl.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| dotBL0t | anyone knows if there's an automated way to remove unused (uninstalled) packages from apt cache and keep only the installed ones? | 09:53 |
| dosnlinux | cron? | 09:53 |
| leobloom | I thought that too but then I've also noticed there is a difference among the different softwares, some are only for kde, for ex. katomic | 09:53 |
| dosnlinux | for scheduling | 09:53 |
| leobloom | autoclean cache doesn't work? | 09:53 |
| dosnlinux | leobloom, those apps may need QT to run, Ubuntu/Xubuntu use GTK | 09:54 |
| dotBL0t | well i didn't tried because i don't know if it will clean all packages and not only the uninstalled ones | 09:54 |
| leobloom | so it's a question oif libraries? | 09:54 |
| dosnlinux | yeah | 09:55 |
| leobloom | I'm not 100% sure but I think that autoclean should only clean that | 09:55 |
| dosnlinux | I think most KDE apps need QT/kdelibs as minimum requirements | 09:55 |
| dotBL0t | so autoclean is similar to autoremove but it's about cached packages? | 09:55 |
| dotBL0t | (sorry for my english) | 09:56 |
| leobloom | my pc is too old to be usable under kde i think, it's already rather slow with gnome | 09:56 |
| leobloom | eh, you're talking to a noob here, I don't really know | 09:56 |

| leobloom | when I install something, I can use the temrinal, add/remove and synaptic, do all of them work well? Does synaptin take all the required libs and stuff by itself or do I have to choose them manually? | 10:57 |
| dosnlinux | they should all be the same | 10:57 |
| leobloom | I personally don't like add/remove, the terminal seems the fastest and easiest but just in case... | 10:57 |
| dosnlinux | just different faces for the same tool | 10:57 |
