| ubuntu_raj | Hey everyone, what time on Tuesday is the next meeting | 00:46 |
|---|---|---|
| sagaci | 8pm AEST | 00:47 |
| sagaci | also, it's in the topic | 00:47 |
| ubuntu_raj | Oh yeah i see now 8pm | 00:48 |
| ubuntu_raj | Anyone here from Brisbane? | 00:50 |
| ubuntu_raj | Hey guys would you recommend upgrading or clean installs when Natty is out? | 00:54 |
| ubuntu_raj | I'm running maverick | 00:54 |
| valorin | Clean install is always recommended, it's annoying reinstalling applications but it prevents issues with old config breaking stuff | 00:55 |
| valorin | My method is to use a different partition for /home so I can keep my home directory as-is | 00:55 |
| valorin | although, it's often good to clear out the config in there too. (I.e. I only keep docs, pics, and config for specific programs) | 00:55 |
| ubuntu_raj | How can backup or create a list of the apps I have installed? | 00:56 |
| valorin | There isn't really an easy way to do that, unfortunantly. Let me look on AskUbuntu for a helpful guide.. one sec | 00:57 |
| ubuntu_raj | Thanks | 00:57 |
| valorin | This might do what you are after: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17823/how-to-list-all-installed-packages | 00:58 |
| valorin | It's not pretty though.. it's one thing I really wish was in the Software Center - the ability to save a list of apps so it can be installed on another machine | 00:59 |
| ubuntu_raj | Thanks ....ill see if I can decipher that | 01:01 |
| valorin | No worries :) | 01:02 |
| valorin | If it doesn't really give you what you need, you can always start a new question on AskUbuntu :) | 01:02 |
| ubuntu_raj | Will do | 01:04 |
