| OvenWerks | holstein: Lumpy was probably looking for me. I know his setup a bit from the past and what he is trying to do. Ping me if he is around again. I was napping though :) | 01:10 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | OvenWerks: will do | 01:10 |
| OvenWerks | thanks | 01:10 |
| Aethysius | This is from a place of ignorance, but what makes Ubuntu Studio different from any other Ubuntu distro? Just the software with which it's packaged? | 02:59 |
| holstein | basically.. same as xubuntu vs ubuntu or whatever | 03:00 |
| holstein | ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu, but its quite different | 03:00 |
| Aethysius | How so? | 03:00 |
| holstein | we all have access to all the repos.. for example, XFCE is in the repos.. so is unity.. ubuntu uses unity, we and xubuntu use XFCE | 03:01 |
| Aethysius | Excellent. | 03:02 |
| Aethysius | I detest Unity. | 03:02 |
| holstein | i dont | 03:02 |
| Aethysius | So, US is more akin to Xubuntu? | 03:02 |
| holstein | i just dont use it, because i dont prefer it.. though, volunteers work on supporting, creating, and maintaining unity, and have come a long way in a short time with it | 03:02 |
| holstein | Aethysius: xubuntu and ubuntustudio use XFCE | 03:03 |
| Aethysius | Right. | 03:03 |
| Aethysius | Sorry to be obtuse sounding. | 03:20 |
| holstein | nah.. ask what you like.. im just trying to be clear | 03:21 |
| Aethysius | I'm actually using Kubuntu right now; I might just switch over to US for my main distro; I just use the web browser, IRC, music, and the occasional movie. | 03:22 |
| holstein | you can use whatever you like from our packages in kubuntu or under kde | 03:22 |
| holstein | if you like KDE, you like KDE.. and might want to keep it | 03:22 |
| Aethysius | True. | 03:23 |
| Aethysius | I like KDE, it just doesn't like some of the software I like. ;) | 03:24 |
| Unit193 | There are metapackages for the different UbuntuStudio tasks, but seems like that'd be overkill. | 03:24 |
| Aethysius | Oh? | 03:25 |
| holstein | correct | 03:25 |
| Unit193 | !find ubuntustudio | 03:26 |
| ubottu | Found: plymouth-theme-ubuntustudio, ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntustudio, ubuntustudio-audio, ubuntustudio-audio-plugins, ubuntustudio-controls, ubuntustudio-default-settings, ubuntustudio-desktop, ubuntustudio-font-meta, ubuntustudio-generation, ubuntustudio-graphics (and 12 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=ubuntustudio&searchon=names&suite=raring§ion=all | 03:26 |
| Aethysius | I see. | 03:29 |
| occ | has anyone here installed ubuntuStudio 12.04 on a laptop and everything worked out the box? | 16:19 |
| zequence | occ: What is not working for you? | 16:20 |
| occ | im just looking for a laptop to buy. and want it to be fully compatible | 16:20 |
| occ | without tinkering | 16:20 |
| zequence | occ: Whatever works with Ubuntu will work with Ubuntu Studio, so, if you want to be 100% sure, check out the Ubuntu certified machines | 16:21 |
| occ | yes iv looked at that list but it is very limited | 16:21 |
| zequence | occ: I'd just make sure that all the devices are supported | 16:27 |
| zequence | like, make sure the camera is not custom, or that the wifi is not supported | 16:28 |
| zequence | but, I wouldn't be able to recommend any machines myself | 16:28 |
| occ | yeh iv been looking at individual components too. but some manufacturers seem to do retarded stuff on their machines which make anything possible | 16:31 |
| zequence | system76 makes some nice machines | 16:31 |
| zequence | https://www.system76.com/ | 16:32 |
| occ | yeh i saw that too.... wish i could get one but cant order stuff online as i need to buy it and have it in the next couple of days | 16:32 |
| zequence | got to a store with a live DVD or usb stick, and ask if you can test boot | 16:33 |
| zequence | go* | 16:33 |
| occ | yeh i might try that | 16:35 |
