(homebrewcider/#xubuntu) I had it set up so that it would boot directly to windows, for wife and kids, and i would start linux through the f8 key on boot09:16
aussiemani upgrade last night - got a new firefox but its a bit unstable - anyon else had issues?09:16
(homebrewcider/#xubuntu) ok, I'm following the guide and getting somewheere09:16
(MajorPayne/#xubuntu) aussieman: Upgrade to what?09:17
aussiemanapt-get upgarde im usinf fiesty sorry09:18
MajorPayneAhh.  Ok.  I thought you were talking about a dist-upgrade.  As for the Firefox issue, I'm not sure.09:19
aussiemanits gone all stuck. tabs close and open very slow09:20
aussiemani had no prob before ....09:20
aussiemanill just wait to see if someone fixes it soon and use galeon or ? in the meantime if i get annoyed09:20
MajorPayneI use Epiphany.  Maybe someone in #ubuntu knows more about it.  That's a general issue.09:21
homebrewciderhey guys, I'm back I think it went well, guess I'll find out hey?09:21
mkquistMajorPayne: that a browser?09:21
homebrewciderepiphany is a browser yes09:22
MajorPaynemkquist: Yea.  It's the default Gnome browser.09:22
aussiemanyeh ill ask if i get pised off more ... i like galeon more than epiphany it has a couple of little things epi dont have09:22
aussiemanthanks for answering MajorPayne09:22
aussiemanhomebrewcider, and you too09:22
MajorPayneaussieman: I may have answered, but I didn't help you much :-|09:22

=== aussieman gonna make some brekky
mkquistdidnt realize that Epiphany was the default... lol09:23
aussiemanyeh but galeon is better :-)09:23
MajorPaynemkquist: It's the Gnome default, not the Ubuntu default.09:23
mkquistic09:23
mkquistthat woruld be the reason then09:23
MajorPayneI don't know about Galeon, I never tryed it.09:24
MajorPaynemkquist: It's a bit faster on startup I find.  That's the only reason I use it.09:24
MajorPayneSometimes I can sit there for a little while waiting for Firefox.09:24
MajorPayneBut it doesn't have all the features of Firefox.09:24
MajorPayneBut it does use the same rendering engine as Firefox, so it should be able to display all the web pages that work with Firefox.09:25
mkquistwas just reading about it on wiki09:26
