d_kenneed help with 12.10 and geforce 210 - unity01:09
holsteind_ken: i would just not use anything that forces 3d01:11
holsteinthats older hardware, correct?01:11
holstein!ati | d_ken this is what i always refer to01:11
ubot93d_ken this is what i always refer to: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto01:11
d_kenyes01:12
holsteini would use something like xubuntu or lubuntu01:12
holsteinunity requires 3d01:12
d_kenwent through 6 or 7 different options, may go back to 12.0401:12
holsteinthere is unity 2d in 12.04 AFAIK.. but that has no longevity01:12
d_kenhear that works better01:12
holsteind_ken: did you try LXDE? or XFCE?01:12
d_kenno, not familiar01:13
holstein!xubuntu01:13
ubot93Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce as the desktop environment. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels01:13
holstein!lubuntu01:13
ubot93lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support.01:13
holstein^^ xubuntu is xfce + ubuntu.. not unity01:13
holstein!nounity01:13
ubot93Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default.  To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool".  For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic01:13
holsteinlubuntu is LXDE + ubuntu01:13
d_kenthat's ok, actually, I just want it to be my personal web server01:13
holsteind_ken: then, you need no GUI01:13
holstein!server01:13
ubot93Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server01:13
d_kenflavor of GUI is not impartant01:14
d_kenimportant ;)01:14
holsteind_ken: just avoid unity then.. try xubuntu on that hardware.. its a lot like the older gnome2 setup01:14
d_kenthat will work - not really looking for a windows replacement01:14
d_kenjust something that is functional01:14
d_kenthank you all for your help!01:15
holsteind_ken: sure.. enjoy!01:23
