[19:14] hello pigna_colada [19:14] hi bodhi! [19:14] bodhi which is your fav distro? [19:16] I mainly run Fedora these days [19:16] or kubuntu [19:16] can kubuntu be installed on older pc's? [19:17] is it lighter than normal ubuntu or xubuntu? [19:19] kubuntu runs fine on my "older" hardware [19:19] for really old hardware, use something such as puppy [19:19] i dont know if it must considered really old... [19:19] its a laptop with a p4 2.0 ghz [19:19] i have tried to run the last ubuntu on it but it doesnt work [19:20] http://www.puppylinux.com/ [19:20] could be any number of problems [19:20] http://www.slitaz.org/en/ [19:21] Of the 'buntus, lubuntu is lightest, I would use that [19:22] yes holstein the other day suggested me lubuntu [19:22] and i have installed it, but i dont like it much :( [19:22] its too light:( [19:22] http://www.slax.org/ [19:22] OK, well, IMO, KDE is lighter then it used to be [19:22] IMO kde works better then Unity/gnome on old hardware [19:22] xubuntu is another option [19:23] i could install ubuntu but it was running very slow and the dekstop had strange effects and blocks [19:23] holstein told me because of the 3d supportg [19:23] http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/desktop-environments-ram-use/ [19:23] yes, I was looking at xubuntu and it seems "something more" than lubuntu [19:23] yea [19:24] bodhi is a great option- http://www.bodhilinux.com/ [19:25] also puppylinux doesnt seem so bad [19:26] but to have more compatibility and sharing with ubuntu itself i think i have to try xubuntu [19:26] x or kubuntu , you will do well with either [19:27] kubuntu has more potential than xu? [19:29] kubuntu has a little more eye candy, works well [19:29] xubuntu has an old school feel [19:31] gnome / unity have high requirements of your video card (3d), the 2d stuff (fall back) is slow [20:02] lubuntu is a nother light distro that is really nice [20:02] oops you alll already discussed lubuntu :) [20:02] then i would go with bodhi's suggestion xubuntu [20:23] yes I am downloading xubuntu :) [20:23] I have formatted the old lubuntu partitions [20:23] and i am in a few moments proceeding in installing xu [20:23] hoping will be the final choice [20:23] I hope the xubuntu install is similar to ubuntu/xubuntu [20:23] I hope the xubuntu install is similar to ubuntu/Lubuntu [20:30] My laptop (running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS) has started "freezing up" so that I have to actually hold down the power button and restart to get it to work. Where can I find help for this problem? (I already tried searching the forum, but no luck.) [21:27] o/ [23:39] Hi! [23:40] I need some help with virtualbox?
