| MZIGGA | is this where a nub like me can find out where to start on my server? | 04:08 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | MZIGGA: sure.. you can try http://www.turnkeylinux.org/ ...ubuntu based, and they run great live for testing | 04:11 |
| MZIGGA | i have the OS install | 04:11 |
| MZIGGA | installed* | 04:12 |
| MZIGGA | now im sittin here looking at the CLI wonderin what now lol | 04:12 |
| Unit193 | https://help.ubuntu.com/11.10/serverguide/C/index.html ? | 04:14 |
| MZIGGA | yeah | 04:14 |
| MZIGGA | i know, been reading it for hours | 04:14 |
| MZIGGA | biggest question is GUI or no GUI | 04:15 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: if you need a GUI, run one | 04:16 |
| holstein | i found it helpful when transitioning to a CLI only server | 04:17 |
| MZIGGA | any gui prefered over all the others | 04:18 |
| MZIGGA | or they all the same | 04:18 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: they are not at all "the same" though some are similar, and you can prefer which ever you want | 04:19 |
| MZIGGA | ok so i tryed to install x11 gui and i still boot to the CLI | 04:24 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: if its ubuntu, maybe try starting with a default light environment like lubuntu-desktop | 04:25 |
| MZIGGA | ubuntu 11.10 | 04:27 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: you can also install lubuntu, and use it as a server if you prefer | 04:28 |
| holstein | OR, install the lubuntu-desktop meta pacakge im suggesting... or xubuntu-desktop | 04:28 |
| MZIGGA | looking for the command for that | 04:29 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: sudo apt-get install | 04:29 |
| MZIGGA | sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop ??? | 04:30 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: i suggest doing some research, and decide what you need/want and why | 04:30 |
| MZIGGA | that i do know | 04:30 |
| holstein | that *will* install the lubuntu-desktop metapackage.. but do you want it? that'll be like as if you have installed lubuntu | 04:31 |
| MZIGGA | web hosting and files storage and file transfer server | 04:31 |
| MZIGGA | thats what i want | 04:31 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: you dont *need* a gui for that | 04:31 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: you mentioned wanting one, and LXDE is a light one.. you can do all of that from lubuntu, or any *buntu | 04:32 |
| MZIGGA | understandable | 04:34 |
| MZIGGA | just not sure how yet | 04:34 |
| MZIGGA | linux is just really new | 04:34 |
| MZIGGA | no me that is | 04:34 |
| holstein | MZIGGA: take it slow.. also, those live CD's i suggested do all of that, and i learned alot obout servers using them | 04:35 |
| holstein | decide what you need to sever via the web, and set that up.. or try one of the live CD's i suggested with drupal or joomla pre-configured | 04:35 |
| MZIGGA | thats what im trying to do | 04:37 |

| smeag0l | Hello everybody | 10:54 |
| nothingspecial | hi newuser | 13:34 |
| newuser | hi, I can't get chromium to start in a guest session, any suggestions? | 13:35 |
| nothingspecial | if you open a terminal in the guest session and type chromium-browser do you get any errors? | 13:35 |
| newuser | it's installed and set as default browser | 13:35 |
| newuser | erm... tricky to test as it's on this laptop! lol | 13:36 |
| nothingspecial | ah | 13:36 |
| nothingspecial | you can leave and come back | 13:37 |
| newuser | i'll have a try and see what happens | 13:37 |
| nothingspecial | also if it is quiet in here you can try #ubuntu | 13:37 |
| nothingspecial | you get there the same way | 13:37 |
| nothingspecial | /j #ubuntu | 13:37 |
