| ozbrk | hi | 00:09 |
| knome | hello | 00:09 |
| Camilo_ | Guys I was wondering if you could give me a hand. I was trying to install Xubuntu 14.04 in a new laptop with a new SSD and I couldn't make it boot. I went into the bios options of the notebook and it has this option called "select an uefi file as trusted for executing" and it allowed me to browse a folder with three options "ubuntu shimx64.efi grubx64.efi or mokmanager.efi" | 00:11 |
| Camilo_ | Does anybody know what it means? | 00:11 |
| Camilo_ | I eventually made it boot, after I chose "grubx64.efi" but I don't know if I'll have a problem in the future because of that | 00:12 |
| Camilo_ | nobody? :( | 00:21 |

| xubuntu24i | hey | 02:03 |
| nenis43 | I was told Ubuntu MATE uses less resources. | 04:47 |
| nenis43 | What do you think? | 04:47 |
| Network2501 | i think it doesn't matter | 04:49 |
| nenis43 | Why doesn't it matter? | 04:49 |
| nenis43 | Less resources means I can pay less for hardware for the same experience. | 04:50 |
| Network2501 | did the person who told you MATE uses less resources say how much less | 04:52 |
| Network2501 | and how does that relate to the hardware you need | 04:52 |
| nenis43 | No. | 04:52 |
| nenis43 | I asked him what benefits there were to Ubuntu MATE over Xubuntu. | 04:52 |
| Network2501 | i don't have an answer for you but it's a question worth asking | 04:53 |
| Unit193 | Oh for goodness sake, try Ubuntu MATE and Xubuntu, decide which you like better and just use it. | 04:53 |
| nenis43 | he said it used less resources, was being developed more, and was more polished. | 04:53 |
| Network2501 | cool | 04:53 |
| nenis43 | Unit193, It sounds like you wished you used Ubuntu MATE. | 04:53 |
| nenis43 | So why don't you? | 04:53 |
| Unit193 | If that's how you interpret it, that's not my problem. But going to a channel and asking which is the best isn't really useful, as what's best for you doesn't have to be what's best for me. | 04:54 |
| Unit193 | There's a reason you can try it live, I'd take advantage of it. | 04:55 |
| nenis43 | It sounds like you're mad that you've invested in Xubuntu instead of MATE. | 04:55 |
| Network2501 | i still don't think it matters | 04:56 |
| Unit193 | That's entirely ignoring what I said, download both, and try them. | 04:56 |
| Unit193 | Or heck, take a coin and flip it, use whichever is heads. | 04:56 |
| Network2501 | nenis43: the reason i don't think it matters is because it's doing what i need, the difference of 8MB of ram used is nothing when i have GBs of ram | 04:56 |
| Unit193 | Network2501: Or more accuratly, Chrome or Firefox will eat half your memory if you're using MATE or Xfce. :P | 04:57 |
| Network2501 | yeah, sadly this is true | 04:57 |
| Network2501 | what does the OS usage matter when your browser is hogging all your cpu/ram | 04:57 |
| Unit193 | browser, office suite, etc. | 04:58 |
| Network2501 | nenis43: i chose xubuntu because i liked xfce, it's ubuntu for the most part right so meh | 04:58 |
| Network2501 | if gns3 had a lot of support for freebsd i'd be using that | 05:00 |

| grcd-xub | Hi there all :) Who should I PM for support with xubuntu installation (grub + boot repair issues)? | 11:16 |
| Luyin | grcd-xub: you should just ask your questions in public | 11:18 |
| Luyin | grcd-xub: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#usefora | 11:19 |
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 11:20 |
| bazhang | and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 11:21 |
| bazhang | grcd-xub, ^^ | 11:21 |
| grcd-xub | Thank you. My problem is that I canot get grub to work after installing. The system acts as if no OS is installed at all. | 11:21 |
| bazhang | grcd-xub, did you read the links I just gave you | 11:21 |
| grcd-xub | http://paste.ubuntu.com/14409879/ is the pastebin from boot-repair so you can get an idea. | 11:21 |
| grcd-xub | I am running a single OS (only Xubuntu) on a single hard drive, from a laptop which does not allow me any room for changes in the BIOS ( I cannot change anything except boot order from there) | 11:23 |
| grcd-xub | i am sorry i was writing. i am checking now | 11:23 |

| xubuntu61i | installation (step: creating ext4-file-system) seems to hang.. last log-message: "process: BB3) Glib-Critical **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == failed' | 21:01 |

| xubuntu61i | this is my 2nd try to install.. first one finished with no problems but i could start (just didn't appear during boot-start) and jumped to windows (installed on another partition) | 21:04 |
| xubuntu700 | I am running 13.04 What is the easiest way to upgrade to the latest LTS? | 22:11 |
| ricksebak | "sudo pm-hibernate" works as expected, so i know the concept of hibernation works on this hardware. but when i look in Xfce power manager, hibernate mode is ghosted. how do i enable hibernation via the power manager? | 23:09 |
