tlm | Any way we can get Mate/Gnome2 instead of XFCE? | 01:17 |

eichi | hello. ubuntu studio ask me for dist upgrade since some weeks. is this supported in ubuntu studio? | 14:00 |
holstein | eichi: sure | 14:02 |
holstein | would i do it? | 14:02 |
holstein | probably not | 14:02 |
holstein | i installed 11.04 in virtualbox and tested the upgrade to 11.10 personally | 14:02 |
holstein | worked fine, except at reboot, you need to manually choose the XFCE session | 14:02 |
holstein | and the XFCE desktop is quite 'default' looking | 14:03 |
holstein | eichi: i am personally running 10.04 still on my production machine | 14:03 |
holstein | i say, do what makes you feel comfortable... | 14:03 |
eichi | okay. I have to default gnome desktop without 3d things, means very simple | 14:03 |
holstein | sure | 14:04 |
holstein | eichi: gnome2 is gone in 11.10 | 14:04 |
holstein | thats not an ubuntu, nor ubuntustudio decision | 14:04 |
holstein | ubuntu is doing what it has always done... provide the latest gnome packages | 14:04 |
holstein | gnome3 is very different from gnome2, so we moved to XFCE | 14:05 |
eichi | of there are only some config errors like choosing session or removing a config file, I dont have problems (linux server admin, and some linux systems support) I just dont want to have a totaly demaged system because ubuntu studio does not support dist update or destroys the package structure or whatever. But if it "works normaly half the way without problems" then I will try it | 14:05 |
holstein | eichi: you shouldnt have any issues on the backbone like that, nor are there really any big reasons to upgrade | 14:06 |
eichi | hm okay | 14:07 |
