| shakes808 | Morning everyone. I am redoing my server and want to know what "Publishing applications" is in the software to install section. | 16:49 |
|---|---|---|
| dzho | shakes808: on 14.04, I think that would be agave, font-manager, fontforge, gimp, gimp-data-extras, gimp-gap, gimp-plugin-registry, gimp-ufraw, musescore, openclipart-svg, scribus | 17:36 |
| dzho | which are the recommends from ubuntustudio-publishing | 17:36 |
| dzho | this is based on tasksel | 17:36 |
| shakes808 | dzho: Thank you. I actually just got that same answer in the ubuntu server chat. Was just about to echo back in here. | 17:38 |
| dzho | cool | 17:39 |
| shakes808 | this is what they sent me: http://packages.ubuntu.com/wily/ubuntustudio-publishing | 17:39 |
| dzho | yeah. | 17:39 |
| dzho | the way I dug that up was to install tasksel, and then | 17:39 |
| dzho | tasksel --list-tasks | 17:39 |
| dzho | and I saw the package, and so did | 17:39 |
| shakes808 | after my install finishes, I will try that | 17:39 |
| dzho | apt-cache show ubuntustudio-publishing | 17:39 |
| dzho | in general, if in doubt, leave it out, because you can always install it later | 17:40 |
| dzho | for values of "always" that assume you have a decent network connection | 17:40 |
| shakes808 | yeah, that is what one of the other people said :) | 17:40 |
| dzho | \o/ | 17:40 |
| dzho | we don't aspire to hivemind, but sometimes it happens :-) | 17:41 |
| dzho | it's interesting they don't include dia in there | 17:41 |
| dzho | and musescore is a funny choice for publishing in general, since it's specifically about music notation | 17:43 |
| dzho | fits in a "music studio" sense but less so in a "graphic design studio" sense | 17:43 |
| dzho | oh, another big one missing! | 17:44 |
| dzho | inkscape! | 17:44 |
| shakes808 | haha | 17:48 |
| dzho | apt-get install gimp scribus inkscape dia | 17:53 |
| * dzho may look into what those other packages offer at some point | 17:53 | |
| shakes808 | hmmm. install finished and now it won't boot :( | 17:58 |
| dzho | :( | 18:00 |
| shakes808 | i can get into the bios | 18:01 |
| dzho | is it in fact a bios machine or is an efi machine? | 18:02 |
| dzho | how new, etc | 18:02 |
| shakes808 | the computer is an old DELL 330. I had Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on this which I just upgraded from the last LTS. I think something happened to it, because my user wasn't part of sudoer and I couldn't get into ROOT. So I just went ahead and installed 15.10 on it. and not it gets past the initial DELL boot screen but then blank. | 18:04 |
| shakes808 | I tried to SSH into it and nothing as well. | 18:04 |
| shakes808 | :( | 18:05 |
| shakes808 | maybe too old for 15.10? | 18:07 |
| shakes808 | seeing if the usb boots up | 18:08 |
| shakes808 | yes :( | 18:09 |
| dzho | optiplex 330 | 18:09 |
| dzho | with intel core 2 duo | 18:09 |
| dzho | if that's it, shouldn't be a problem | 18:09 |
| dzho | the only age-related problem I know about with regard to hardware has been with machines that didn't support PAE well | 18:10 |
| dzho | and that has to do with hardware much older than core 2 | 18:10 |
| shakes808 | right?! That is what I thought. :( going to reinstall it | 18:11 |
| shakes808 | i am thinking that 15.10 can't be run on my hardware. going back to 14.04 | 18:54 |
| shakes808 | 14.04 works :) just need to get everything else updated. thank you for your assistance today dzho | 20:58 |
| dzho | :) | 22:14 |
