| DavidBrooke | are there any settings for the notification area? I would like to be able to have it clear the notification after a certain amount of time. | 14:13 |

| swiss | DavidBrooke: i know what you mean... i have a lot of notifications that build up and are a pain to clear | 17:18 |
| bjsnider | DavidBrooke, the answer is no | 17:33 |
| bjsnider | DavidBrooke, there's an argument for turning off notification area plugins that are filling up the area with messages you don't care about though | 17:38 |
| xente | Does anyone know how to prevent unfocused windows from dimming in GNOME? | 18:30 |
| jw1200w | is bug reporting on gnome3 launchpad restricted to members? | 18:45 |
| bjsnider | some of these questions sound a bit like 'can i somehow stop gnome from being gnome?' | 18:46 |
| xente | if gnome can't do what its users want..maybe that's a good thing | 18:47 |
| bjsnider | it can't be all things to all people, and it's also by no means a finished product | 18:52 |
| bjsnider | and i don't believe it will ever be as customizable as gnome 2 was | 18:52 |
| xente | except for minor things, I personally like it (recently switched from Unity) | 18:53 |

| lubuntos | Hi everyone, I have an HP Desktop Quad 2.2 Ghz with 1GB ram running Lubuntu right now and I would like to install Ubuntu Gnome 13.10. What's your suggestions? Will it work smoothly? | 20:01 |
| roasted | hard to say. it'd definitely be heavier than lubuntu... | 20:02 |
| roasted | what sort of GPU do you have | 20:02 |
| lubuntos | GPU? | 20:02 |
| roasted | graphics card | 20:02 |
| roasted | (graphics processing unit) | 20:02 |
| lubuntos | a alright thanks | 20:02 |
| lubuntos | I dont know :P I have to go upstairs and see. | 20:03 |
| roasted | it's hard to say. GNOME can be a little heavy on resources. You say a quad proc, that sounds more than enough, 1GB is mehhhh | 20:04 |
| lubuntos | The problem is that Lubuntu 13.10 showed to me some mirror bugs that I don't know how to fix. Graphics on letters while reading, are messing up a bit, and I have to hover them with my mouse sometimes to see the text correctly. | 20:04 |
| roasted | but if the GPU is a workhorse I'm sure it would do fine | 20:04 |
| roasted | yeah | 20:04 |
| roasted | I don't know - I don't use Ubuntu GNOME on my main machine. What I do use it on is an i5 with a nice Intel GPU and it runs decent. | 20:04 |
| roasted | it's also on an SSD and 8GB of RAM... | 20:04 |
| roasted | so it SHOULD run half decent... | 20:04 |
| lubuntos | hmmm | 20:05 |
| lubuntos | I was waiting for ubuntu gnome, because I dont like unity. | 20:05 |
| lubuntos | :P | 20:05 |
| lubuntos | I'll see man, thanks! (Thinking now) | 20:05 |
| roasted | in my experience Gnome has ran a little better than Unity | 20:06 |
| roasted | not by an epic landslide, but noticeably better | 20:06 |
| roasted | but NOT like Lubuntu though | 20:06 |
| roasted | LXDE is crazy stupid light | 20:06 |
| lubuntos | yeap | 20:06 |
| lubuntos | I got bored of lubuntu. | 20:06 |
| roasted | yeah Lubuntu is admittedly a little poor on features :( | 20:06 |
| roasted | I run it on a laptop at home but that laptop is also terible so I expect very little out of it | 20:06 |
| lubuntos | my laptop is 6 years old, i can't format it again :P it gets stucked when I press any button while formatting. | 20:07 |
| lubuntos | i'll see, i just dont want to change os all the time, i already did 3-4 formats to decide which os to have. but am addicted to ubuntu, especially now with gnome. | 20:09 |
| lubuntos | had winblows 7 for a bit, then winblows xp, then ubuntu, then lubuntu, now ubuntu gnome :P i will see | 20:09 |
| roasted | yeah, that's why I try to mess around with VMs whenever possible. | 20:10 |
| roasted | although having root and home on different partitions helps too | 20:10 |
| roasted | I can blast a new OS over USB 3.0/SSD in a matter of 3-4 minutes, share out the same home directory, back in business | 20:10 |
| lubuntos | heheh | 20:10 |
| lubuntos | I'll buy a new laptop this year, so my main pc would be my laptop. desktop would be only for me, cuz my family doesnt know nada! | 20:11 |
| lubuntos | roasted, thank you very much | 20:12 |
| lubuntos | am gonna give it a try | 20:12 |
| roasted | no problem | 20:12 |
| roasted | good luck :D | 20:12 |
| lubuntos | even with 1gb ram | 20:12 |
| lubuntos | :P | 20:12 |
| roasted | there's other options out there, by the way | 20:12 |
| roasted | ones that are Ubuntu based yet not part of the 'official' Ubuntu brand | 20:13 |
| lubuntos | running through USB and see | 20:13 |
| roasted | Zorin, elementary OS (personally using this now). Just keep your options open. | 20:13 |
| lubuntos | i love ubuntu gnome ;p planning to buy more ram one day soon | 20:13 |
| roasted | there's a distro and desktop environment for everybody :D | 20:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lubuntos: http://downloadmoreram.com/ :) just for lulz | 20:13 |
| roasted | yeah, I like Gnome a lot too. Solid DE. It has it's times where I find myself elevating to a homicidal rage, but it's far less of an issue than what I experience on KDE or Unity. :P | 20:13 |
| lubuntos | heheheh | 20:14 |
| lubuntos | IRC the best help in the world. | 20:14 |
| lubuntos | I missed when I was 14 :P anyway | 20:14 |
| roasted | sometimes it's slow, but most times it's nice. :D | 20:14 |
| lubuntos | i'll give it a try :P have a nice day/night roasted :P here is 22:15 - Cyprus | 20:15 |
| lubuntos | SonikkuAmerica :P | 20:16 |
| lubuntos | lol | 20:16 |
| SonikkuAmerica | lubuntos: :) | 20:17 |
| lubuntos | good night guys! :P | 20:18 |
| lubuntos | see you around | 20:18 |
