| clifter | Is it better to install with using the "Ubuntu Software Center" or from "Terminal" using sudo apt-get install <program> ? ? Advantages or disadvantages to either way ? ? | 21:27 |
|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | I wouldn't say one is better than another | 21:28 |
| pleia2 | a lot of people find the ubuntu software center easier to search and use (particularly if they don't like the command line) | 21:28 |
| blitz | one way you learn more about the terminal | 21:29 |
| pleia2 | I've always used apt-get without issue though | 21:29 |
| blitz | I feel like using apt-get is more transparent as to what's actually going on | 21:29 |
| blitz | you know what packages you're getting | 21:29 |
| clifter | pleia2; blitz: Thanks - I favor Terminal because I see right away if package installed ok. Just wondering wasn't sure where to ask? Is this channel ok for occasional general support question? | 21:33 |
| pleia2 | clifter: yep, asking here is fine :) | 21:36 |
| clifter | pleia2: Cool thanks much | 21:41 |
| clifter | I have forgotten proper way to add another irc channel to start as well as my default channel. Any ideas? | 23:51 |
| clifter | Running Ubuntu 13.10 - Icon for log-off & shutdown is missing after a reboot I just did. What would be a good fix? Have used Terminal before. | 23:55 |
