| Unit193 | PCLine__: So back to playing around? | 00:36 |
|---|---|---|
| PCLine__ | Yes - Got time to reload Ubuntu on my Laptop. | 00:37 |
| PCLine__ | and I have updated it. | 00:37 |
| PCLine__ | now trying to make sure everything is loaded and running right. | 00:37 |
| Unit193 | There's a slight problem with routing traffic through the VPS/VPN, a lot of things start giving you Metric and French. | 00:39 |
| PCLine__ | I have never (yet) setup VPN on this setup - I have that on my wish list. Not needed at this time. | 01:04 |
| Unit193 | OpenVPN is a usual and good one, I use GVPE. | 01:05 |
| PCLine__ | New Laptop is running 64Bit and I have 8Gb Ram - I can run a little more then before. | 01:06 |
| PCLine__ | Want to setup an install with a desktop on it | 01:07 |
| Unit193 | I'm a fan of Xubuntu. ;) | 01:08 |
| PCLine__ | Can I just install XFCE on what I have? | 01:30 |
| Unit193 | Yes, though if you don't install the xubuntu-core or xubuntu-desktop tasks, it won't have all the nice configuration. | 01:34 |
| PCLine__ | Never mind - I loaded 14.04 so I could have LTS. I will donwload the latest 15 something and try it. | 01:37 |
| PCLine__ | Installing System - Note you must change the boot order in HyperV to install the software! | 02:31 |
| thafreak | installed 15.10 vanila unity in a VM to try it out...still not a fan... | 17:22 |
| thafreak | Tried kubuntu 15.10 live on an old laptop, that wasn't horrible...still don't like that weird desktop folder plasma widget thing though | 17:23 |
| thafreak | Anything else worth trying? | 17:24 |
| dzho | I've been using xubuntu on a desktop and a laptop and it hasn't been horrible | 17:26 |
| thafreak | the new werewolf version? | 17:26 |
| * dzho looks up | 17:26 | |
| dzho | oh, I see we've covered xubuntu | 17:26 |
| dzho | well, mentioned it at least | 17:27 |
| dzho | probably not any new version, had it for a while now | 17:27 |
| thafreak | i may give that a shot... | 17:27 |
| thafreak | and the gnome version | 17:27 |
| dzho | my firefox crashes a *lot* on the laptop though come to think of it. whether that's xubuntu's fault or not I could say for sure, but I doubt | 17:27 |
| thafreak | I'm still a fan of gnome-shell on machines that can run it... | 17:27 |
| thafreak | what version of firefox? is it like the latest? | 17:28 |
| dzho | probably. rolling releases and all that, right | 17:42 |
| Unit193 | dzho: FWIW, I don't really crash Firefox. | 21:24 |
| Unit193 | You could always use Openbox, thafreak. :D | 22:13 |
| PCLine__ | XUbuntu needs 1024Mb of Ram in my HyperV setup :( | 23:45 |
