holstein | reducks: o/ | 16:08 |
reducks | 11.04 install issue | 16:09 |
reducks | fails at installing software packages | 16:09 |
reducks | even with 0 checked | 16:09 |
reducks | md5 sum is correct | 16:09 |
holstein | reducks: do 11.10 or 10.04 | 16:09 |
holstein | no reason to install 11.04 | 16:09 |
holstein | not sure what issue you are having | 16:10 |
reducks | 11.10 is xfce | 16:10 |
reducks | doent not want | 16:10 |
holstein | 10.04 is not | 16:10 |
holstein | you can always install normal ubuntu and add metapackages | 16:10 |
reducks | 10.04 is giving me usb install issues | 16:10 |
holstein | or just install whatever you want | 16:10 |
holstein | JACK, ardour... etc.. | 16:10 |
reducks | well i want 11.04 like i had previously | 16:10 |
reducks | :P | 16:10 |
holstein | you can install whatever DE you want in 11.10 | 16:11 |
holstein | gnome3 | 16:11 |
holstein | mate... whatever | 16:11 |
reducks | ^_^ | 16:11 |
holstein | reducks: theres a log during the install, you can create a webserver on the machine that is failing | 16:11 |
holstein | and you will see whatever is causing 11.04 to fail | 16:11 |
holstein | however, that will lead you to filing a bug | 16:12 |
holstein | and no one will care | 16:12 |
holstein | which is why i suggest moving on | 16:12 |
holstein | even consider installing 12.04 from a daily | 16:12 |
holstein | or alpha | 16:12 |
reducks | 12.04? | 16:12 |
holstein | reducks: the upcoming release? | 16:12 |
holstein | the next one? | 16:12 |
holstein | 12.04 | 16:12 |
reducks | yeah is it worth it/. | 16:13 |
reducks | ? | 16:13 |
holstein | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/daily/current/ | 16:13 |
holstein | reducks: i dont know | 16:13 |
holstein | im running 10.04 | 16:13 |
holstein | and i dont plan on running anything but the next LTS (12.04) on my studio machine | 16:14 |
holstein | but, there is *no* reason to run 11.04 | 16:14 |
reducks | yeah not sure i fancy running an alpha | 16:14 |
holstein | you *can* get it running im sure | 16:14 |
reducks | i want it to look like it used to before i upgraded to 11.10 | 16:14 |
holstein | the easy way would be, download normal ubuntu 11.04 and convert it, or add whatever packages you want/need | 16:15 |
holstein | reducks: thats over | 16:15 |
holstein | gnome2 is dead | 16:15 |
holstein | ubuntu is doing what it always has | 16:15 |
holstein | provide you with the latest version of gnome | 16:15 |
reducks | mkay | 16:15 |
holstein | which is gnome3 | 16:15 |
holstein | gnome3 and unity look a lot alike | 16:15 |
reducks | i know | 16:15 |
reducks | ive got mint on this machine | 16:16 |
holstein | if you want gnome2, there is a project called mate | 16:16 |
holstein | that is available in mint12 | 16:16 |
reducks | ^^ | 16:16 |
reducks | im running it atm | 16:16 |
holstein | ALSO, all the ubuntustudio stuff is availalbe in mint12 | 16:16 |
holstein | ubuntu = ubuntustudio | 16:16 |
holstein | mint is based on ubuntu, and uses the same repos, with custom pinned repos of their own | 16:16 |
holstein | from mine... apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins | 16:19 |
holstein | for example | 16:20 |
holstein | or just search ubuntustudio in whatever package manager you use | 16:20 |
holstein | i personally didnt find mate acceptable | 16:20 |
reducks | im not sure i like gnome3 or unity though | 16:20 |
reducks | its not as efficient for me to use | 16:21 |
holstein | yup, im not using them either | 16:21 |
reducks | what are you using? | 16:21 |
holstein | openbox right now | 16:21 |
holstein | for a few weeks | 16:21 |
holstein | i find XFCE an acceptable gnome2 replacement though | 16:22 |
holstein | more so than mate | 16:22 |
reducks | yeah it just looks like a four year old drew it into the OS though | 16:22 |
reducks | i suppose function over design | 16:22 |
holstein | lol | 16:22 |
holstein | thats what gnome2 looks like ;) | 16:22 |
reducks | i guess it's just what im used to | 16:23 |
holstein | you can theme it up anyways.. | 16:23 |
reducks | i only made the switch to linux at gnome 2 | 16:23 |
reducks | who 'likes' change afterall | 16:23 |
holstein | to depends | 16:23 |
holstein | we'll all like ardour3 | 16:24 |
holstein | and the newer firefoxes are faster | 16:24 |
holstein | just sux that it all happened at once | 16:24 |
holstein | unity and gnome3 | 16:24 |
holstein | but, its all open | 16:24 |
holstein | you can run gnome2 if you want to deal with it | 16:25 |
reducks | are they going to be releasing a ll kernel ? | 16:25 |
holstein | reducks: they? | 16:25 |
