| Kilos | good | 12:37 |
| AlphaGuyy | pidgin up running | 12:37 |
| Kilos | cool | 12:37 |
| AlphaGuyy | compiz crashed | 12:37 |
| Kilos | i dont play with that | 12:38 |
| Kilos | let it do its own thing | 12:38 |
| AlphaGuyy | cant remember how to enable fancy effects | 12:38 |
| Kilos | what fancy effects? | 12:38 |
| AlphaGuyy | snappy windows etc | 12:38 |
| AlphaGuyy | i think i got it now but its not working | 12:39 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | superfly: I don't, I can give you Lance's details if you like, he's a guru with that stuff | 12:39 |
| Kilos | look in settings for stuff to play with and also install unity-tweak-tool | 12:39 |
| Kilos | and aptitude | 12:40 |
| Kilos | sudo apt-get install aptitude then use aptitude for installing and reinstalling, it gives you fixes for prob things | 12:41 |
| Kilos | i think its more user friendly than apt-get | 12:42 |
| AlphaGuyy | what is aptitude' | 12:43 |
| superfly | ThatGraemeGuy: please, I'd really appreciate it | 12:43 |
| superfly | AlphaGuyy: aptitude is the better package manager, if it can deal with multiarch | 12:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | The following extra packages will be installed: | 12:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | libboost-iostreams1.46.1 libclass-accessor-perl libcwidget3 libept1.4.12 | 12:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | libio-string-perl libparse-debianchangelog-perl libsub-name-perl | 12:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | libtimedate-perl | 12:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | seeing that im using 12.04 wudnt it be better i just download newer version | 12:44 |
| AlphaGuyy | or should i just keep this update .. | 12:45 |
| Kilos | its an improved apt-get imo | 12:45 |
| Kilos | oh ya you on 12.04 hey. if its running fine stay with it | 12:46 |
| Kilos | 14.04 you need to do more work to get things setup right | 12:46 |
| Kilos | sorry unity-tweak-tool is in 14.04 | 12:47 |
| AlphaGuyy | yeah i couldt find that now | 12:47 |
| mazal | Shees I have to start looking into aptitude | 12:47 |
| Kilos | there was another tweak thing for 12.04 but ive forgotten what it was | 12:47 |
| mazal | Never get round to learn that | 12:47 |
| Kilos | aptitude rocks mazal | 12:47 |

| Kilos | "a what" | 13:07 |
| mazal | hehehehe | 13:08 |
| mazal | I'm from the DOS days , so wasn't so strange for me | 13:08 |
| mazal | Until the commands started | 13:08 |
| Kilos | i thought a terminal was a place where busses got together to party | 13:08 |
| AlphaGuyy | my first experience with computers was in the green screen days | 13:09 |
| mazal | ditto | 13:09 |
| AlphaGuyy | when i had floppy disk games on old warehouse computers | 13:09 |
| AlphaGuyy | then i got windows95 and doom that only ran in dos | 13:09 |
| AlphaGuyy | i learnt a few cd.. commands thats all | 13:10 |
| AlphaGuyy | finding ubuntu is refreshing i feel like a kid again , like that first dos experience altho i bean at it only a few yrs now on and off | 13:11 |
| AlphaGuyy | im so tired of windows | 13:11 |
| AlphaGuyy | the ubuntu look and feel is a relief | 13:11 |
| AlphaGuyy | and challenging and free | 13:12 |
