TheSheepxflock4, sorry13:57
TheSheepouyes: it's configured in the keyboard settings13:57

elysianHey, question, I'm trying to install an easy to use distro in under 2gbs, and #Ubuntu suggested I try Xubuntu, so, does anyone know if you can get it to work in under 2gbs, or if not has any suggestions as to which distro I could try?14:59
charlie-tcaXubuntu 9.10 requires about 1.6GB after installation14:59
charlie-tcaI don't know if it will run into any issues trying to install in 2GB, due to tmp files, however.15:00
elysianReally? That's great, it's for some old PCs in my school, first time we'll be introducing anything open source related to the school.15:01
elysianAh.15:01
elysianIs there anyway to control the packages installed?15:01
elysianOr maybe a slim version of the install.15:02
TheSheepyou can install ubuntu-server and add anything you need to it15:03
TheSheepI think the alternate-cd lets you do that too15:04
elysianThanks, I'll look into that now.15:04
