thafreakoh, more like a fresh install...15:59
thafreakformat /,/var,/usr,/tmp only and leave everything else alone15:59
_bbbupgrades always leave me feeling dirty15:59
thafreakyup16:00
jrgiffordah, that sounds safer.16:00
_bbbyou ever get that not so fresh feeling16:00
thafreakonly time i really do that, are my debian servers that are in production...and can't re-install16:00
thafreakyeah...so even if i do an inline upgrade....i tend to later on re-install anyway :)16:01
thafreakit's quicker too16:01
_bbbnod16:01

Unit193Heh, Ubuntu Studio seems to be changing to Xubuntu Studio next release19:23
jrgiffordUnit193: seriously?19:25
jrgiffordDoesn't surprise me much.19:25
Unit193"so perhaps i should state the end game...i want to transition ubuntu studio to the generalized  themeing that xubuntu currently uses"19:25
jrgiffordsounds good to me.19:26
Unit193Greybird + panel config :D19:26
jrgifford:D19:26
Unit193Studio fan?19:28
jrgiffordNot a studio fan, but I do like XFCE/Xubuntu. :)19:28
Unit193Ah, so same as me (on that part)19:29
Unit193So you also may not be fond of https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/176033 ?19:30
jrgiffordwhat are they asking?19:46
jrgiffordI can't really figure that part out. :P19:46
Unit193Woops, I've had a few longer emails that got me distracted. I only skimmed the question, but it seems that he should try installing Oneiric, not Maverick (for one thing)20:56
Unit193What tags do you subscribe to on AskUbuntu anyway?20:57
jrgiffordFor Ask Ubuntu, Unity, server, lubuntu/lxde, xubuntu/xfce, 11.10, 12.04, irc and a few others.21:16
Unit193Ok, I didn't know21:17
jrgiffordOh, and community, since I love seeing ranty ravings and flagging them. :P21:20
Unit193:P21:21
jrgiffordI know I know I'm horrible. :P21:21
Unit193Maybe, but I'd do it too21:22
jrgiffordit's really the only way to keep the site clean.21:23
jrgiffordsomeone has to do it, occasionally it's me. :P21:23
Unit193Just like people have to handle the trolls21:23
jrgiffordoh, these are the trolls. The OMG! Ubuntu! trolls could learn a trick from these guys. :D21:24
Unit193That entire site is a troll...21:24
Unit193(Yes, I could easily get people that disagree on that)21:25
jrgiffordWon't find me arguing, I'm the editor of like, the only OMG! competitor  in the world.21:25
Unit193From what I've seen, I'd almost call FSF trolls (I have seen one bad one around a few times, but also one good one)21:27
jrgiffordWell played, well played.21:28
Unit193He almost earned +q (or more) in offtopic (and not ubuntu-offtopic either)21:29
jrgiffordnot cool.21:40
