syngindub | anyone here fed up with the current direction that ubuntu are going with their current release? | 21:44 |
---|---|---|
syngindub | i've switched to mint recently | 21:44 |
infoturtle | hello syngindub, what's it you don;t like? | 21:45 |
syngindub | hi infoturtle..i don't like an OS presuming i'm a complete idiot :) | 21:46 |
infoturtle | you'll hate OSx so | 21:47 |
infoturtle | :p | 21:47 |
syngindub | i like to customise my OS and the latest version is a big let down. It probably suits more newbies | 21:47 |
syngindub | never used OSx, have supported it alright but never used it | 21:47 |
infoturtle | TBH I hate it's look, why move to unity when gnome 3 looks sssooooo good! | 21:47 |
syngindub | whats the deal with gnome 3 though? | 21:48 |
syngindub | do you need to build this yourself? | 21:48 |
infoturtle | don't think so, I have an install guide for installing it to try it out if you want it | 21:49 |
syngindub | are you installing gnome 3 on top of natty? | 21:49 |
infoturtle | yep, soon as I get it I'm installing gnome 3.0 over it, it just looks better and less in the way | 21:50 |
infoturtle | http://www.infoturtle.ie/tipsandtricks/installgnome3.0.php | 21:50 |
syngindub | cheers for that. Have spent the last few days configuring mint though :) i've been know to blow an OS away after a few drinks though :) | 21:50 |
infoturtle | ha ha | 21:51 |
infoturtle | well, you just need to put a little bit more into natty to have it the way you'dlike it | 21:52 |
IRWolfie- | I switched to arch | 21:52 |
syngindub | i tried arch last year | 21:52 |
IRWolfie- | seems ubuntu is starting to stray away from gnome | 21:52 |
syngindub | highly customisable but i don't have the time for that much though | 21:52 |
syngindub | yeah IRWolfie- , it's a huge dissapointment as i've been running it for the past 5 years or so..around breezy | 21:53 |
syngindub | they are completely switching emphasis and i feel there will be a major shift in number from their OS after natty gets released | 21:54 |
IRWolfie- | I've still got ubuntu on for work | 21:54 |
IRWolfie- | but arch for my laptop | 21:54 |
syngindub | arch is too cutting edge for my like :) | 21:55 |
infoturtle | never used arch, is that it's full name? | 21:55 |
syngindub | i used to spend all my time running updates with arch :) | 21:55 |
IRWolfie- | arch linux | 21:55 |
IRWolfie- | I like updates | 21:55 |
IRWolfie- | and I especially like being on the bleeding edge :D | 21:55 |
infoturtle | looks fancy! | 21:56 |
IRWolfie- | it's not as newbie friendly as ubuntu, but it seems good for learning more | 21:57 |
IRWolfie- | next, gentoo! | 21:57 |
syngindub | it's great for learning alright..the arch community are great for documentation also | 21:57 |
infoturtle | might try it out :D | 21:57 |
infoturtle | for now tho, time to get online and play some unreal, see yall later! | 21:58 |
syngindub | well worth it..highly configurable | 21:58 |
