tom34543hi out there, anybody listening?17:55
tom34543anyway - after years of debian i tried to install ubuntu yesterday. There were hours of "hearing the CD" without any changes on the screen. is this normal?  (7 year old i-dont-know-cpu).17:58
holsteintom34543: which? 12.10?18:02
holsteini would use 12.04 on an older pc18:02
holsteintom34543: i would use lubuntu 12.04 on an older pc18:02
holsteintom34543: usually takes about 10 minutes to install18:02
tom34543yes, i used ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-i386.iso18:03
tom34543ups - just saw the "l" in front of ununtu - is it something different?18:04
geirhaIt's the same, just installs an lxde desktop instead of gnome by default18:05
holsteintom34543: lubuntu is ubuntu with the lxde desktop environment, instead of the unity, gnome, or kde (kubuntu) or xfce xubuntu18:05
geirhaduanedesign: hi :)18:05
tom34543and what i picked may indeed cause hours of non visible progress?18:06
geirhaNo. Sounds more like a bad burn18:06
holsteintom34543: on a machine of that vintage, ubuntu might not boot.. i would try a live CD>. i would want to see the desktop boot live.. i would want to run lspci.. test networking, sound etc18:06
geirhaHow much RAM does it have?18:07
tom34543i think its only 512 mb.  :-/18:07
holsteini would want xfce or lxde there...18:09
geirha512 is the minimum requirement for ubuntu with gnome18:09
holsteini would expect to see a desktop live in a few minutes.. and an install to take less than 20 minutes18:10
tom34543ok, i think the problem is the ram. i ll try lubuntu.18:11
tom34543it is actually my "TV" computer, a "hush", which never ever was "hush" because of the mechanical coupled harddisk ...18:14
