[01:17] Any way we can get Mate/Gnome2 instead of XFCE? [14:00] hello. ubuntu studio ask me for dist upgrade since some weeks. is this supported in ubuntu studio? [14:02] eichi: sure [14:02] would i do it? [14:02] probably not [14:02] i installed 11.04 in virtualbox and tested the upgrade to 11.10 personally [14:02] worked fine, except at reboot, you need to manually choose the XFCE session [14:03] and the XFCE desktop is quite 'default' looking [14:03] eichi: i am personally running 10.04 still on my production machine [14:03] i say, do what makes you feel comfortable... [14:03] okay. I have to default gnome desktop without 3d things, means very simple [14:04] sure [14:04] eichi: gnome2 is gone in 11.10 [14:04] thats not an ubuntu, nor ubuntustudio decision [14:04] ubuntu is doing what it has always done... provide the latest gnome packages [14:05] gnome3 is very different from gnome2, so we moved to XFCE [14:05] 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 [14:06] eichi: you shouldnt have any issues on the backbone like that, nor are there really any big reasons to upgrade [14:07] hm okay
