iktit looks like there isn't much excitement regarding ubuntu on the desktop for a few releases09:58
iktit should be relatively smooth sailing towards 14.04, maybe a bit of bumpiness with mir09:59

jeaAh, ok10:19
Noskcajjea, if you need me to help with anything, let me know. i live in armidale though10:19
jeaIn this case I was wondering about happenings within Australia, with regards to reapproval later this year10:20
iktNoskcaj: what's going on with lubuntu?10:20
Noskcajikt, there was talk of skipping 13.10.10:21
Noskcajmostly because of PPC bugs and XP EOLing10:21
jeaXP == Windows XP?10:22
Noskcajyep10:24

benonsoftwareNoskcaj: Good luck, 10:29
iktneed to get a 2nd monitor10:29
iktgot one at work and it's great for things like irc10:29
jea2 monitors are very useful10:29
jeathe multi-monitor support is a lot better now too10:30
* benonsoftware intensely dislikes lag.10:31
jeait is quite annoying10:32
iktyeah I've heard a lot about multi-monitor support10:32
gggshit-or-miss with Linux though, had all sorts of strife with it, so went back to single monitor+multi-desktops10:57
jeaI have used multi-monitor with multi-desktops, and it was fine10:58
gggsif your 2nd monitor is a different height then it means unusable areas above/below each monitor10:58
jeait does, but i haven't had issues with that before10:59
gggsicons get automatically placed in the top-left corner, so if you have deadspace above your left monitor you can't get to it11:01
gggsauto-mounts for instance11:01
jeaoh, ok11:01
jaredI've run multi monitors for years, never had much drama with nvidia cards11:01
jeaI don't put anything on my desktop, so I haven't noticed it11:01
jaredAll you do is set the primary monitor to the one you want and set the bar to be only on the primary monitor11:02
