| ubuntu-mate | hello, considering coming back to linux after about 15 years and have some questions if someone is game to talk shop | 15:22 |
| masnell____ | fire away, can see if we can help | 15:25 |
| Akuli | quite a few things have changed, but many things are still about the same | 15:26 |
| ubuntu-mate | So how well is UbuMate geared towards web development? | 15:26 |
| ubuntu-mate | Yeah a lot has changed. I tried to install Arch because I've always loved the DIY distro | 15:27 |
| Akuli | arch isn't really diy, its read the wiki :) | 15:27 |
| ubuntu-mate | It didn't go so well so I'm looking for another distro to use while get my linux "chops" back up | 15:28 |
| Akuli | a minimal debian installation is nice | 15:28 |
| masnell____ | Not my area of expertise, but understand that Ubuntu (as a group) are good bases for web dev - there are tools in the repos such as umake that enable easy instal of IDEs etc | 15:28 |
| Akuli | any distro is about equally good for developing stuff, ubuntu also supports probably more packages than anything else so i'd say a great choice | 15:29 |
| masnell____ | plus setting up VMs and webservers for local teast is super easy with VirtualBox etc | 15:29 |
| Akuli | of course, if something's not packaged you can always build from source :) | 15:30 |
| ubuntu-mate | Most of the tools I use on OSX I see are available on linux, just currious if they are stable | 15:30 |
| Akuli | they should run the same | 15:30 |
| ubuntu-mate | good point about source, I forgot. | 15:31 |
| Akuli | of course, you won't find many commercial tools for linux but there are free alternatives to many things | 15:31 |
| masnell____ | Have to agree with Akuli - typically Ubuntu offers stable packages, plus you will find it's typically the goto distro for online info on how to do 'x' in linux | 15:31 |
| ubuntu-mate | I've never been a fan of commercial software | 15:31 |
| ubuntu-mate | I've been using GIMP and Inkscape on OSX | 15:31 |
| Akuli | then you're ready to just aptitude install your favorite software :) | 15:32 |
| Akuli | sudo aptitude install gimp inkscape | 15:32 |
| ubuntu-mate | I'm just tired of the apple business model of forced upgrades that break working environments | 15:32 |
| Akuli | sounds like microsoft also | 15:32 |
| masnell____ | I think both of those packages are in the Welcome setup for Ubuntu-MATE from memory | 15:32 |
| Akuli | for a developer, installing stuff with the terminal is just much faster | 15:33 |
| Akuli | Ctrl+Alt+T and we're ready to go | 15:33 |
| ubuntu-mate | My main question is just stability. | 15:33 |
| Akuli | should be awesome | 15:33 |
| Akuli | if it's not something's wrong :) | 15:33 |
| masnell____ | just confirmed - within 5min of having Ubuntu MATE booted the 1st time, you will have GIMP & Inkscape installed and running | 15:33 |
| ubuntu-mate | I was reading comments in an article today and someone was saying git is broken in 16.04. Is that true? | 15:34 |
| Akuli | well... | 15:34 |
| Akuli | so far i haven't heard anything good about 16.04 :) | 15:34 |
| Akuli | but again, if it is just build from source and you're done | 15:34 |
| masnell____ | I use git everyday and I havent had git problems - plus current release is 16.04.1 | 15:34 |
| Akuli | a broken git would be indeed awful | 15:35 |
| ubuntu-mate | YES | 15:35 |
| ubuntu-mate | So I downloaded this ISO from the UbuMATE website today so it should be 16.04.1 and git should work? | 15:35 |
| masnell____ | yep | 15:36 |
| ubuntu-mate | That's a huge relief. | 15:36 |
| Akuli | i'm still running 14.04 :D | 15:36 |
| Akuli | of course, git isn't installed by default, but it just takes one command to get it installed | 15:37 |
| ubuntu-mate | Is there a main reason you are running 14.04 over 16.04? | 15:37 |
| Akuli | i've seen people having weird trouble with 16.04, and i also don't like to have systemd as my init daemon | 15:38 |
| Akuli | but really, both of these are based on my own opinions more than facts | 15:38 |
| ubuntu-mate | Okay, I should also say I'm running on a laptop. | 15:39 |
| Akuli | how much processor power? | 15:39 |
| ubuntu-mate | I bought a couple year old thinkpad to replace my couple year old macbook air | 15:39 |
| alkisg | One good reason to run 16.04 over 14.04 is if you have a very new system (kernel and xorg support) | 15:39 |
| ubuntu-mate | i5 8GB ram | 15:40 |
| alkisg | Another one is that 16.04 has more support for bugs, devs don't care much for previous releases | 15:40 |
| Akuli | alkisg, i can install the 16.04 on 14.04. | 15:40 |
| Akuli | and i still think there is less bugs to begin with on 14.04. | 15:40 |
| alkisg | One reason against 16.04 is that it probably has more bugs than previous versions, as new bugs always creep in and need months or years to go away | 15:40 |
| Akuli | ubuntu-mate, you'll have no trouble at all running 16.04 on it if you want to :) | 15:40 |
| masnell____ | i5 8GB shld be good with MATE | 15:40 |
| Akuli | yeah | 15:41 |
| alkisg | i5 8gb ram should be good with any os :) | 15:41 |
| ubuntu-mate | it seems snappy right now. I'm doing all this from the live image. | 15:41 |
| Akuli | both of my main computers have 2GB | 15:41 |
| masnell____ | Windows is terrible on any machine... | 15:41 |
| Akuli | :) | 15:41 |
| Akuli | windows 10 is | 15:41 |
| ubuntu-mate | Everything is working out of the box including wireless, but I made sure to get a laptop without a Broadcom wireless chip :) | 15:41 |
| Akuli | actually, most broadcoms are supported just fine :D | 15:42 |
| masnell____ | good move | 15:42 |
| Akuli | but you do need a propertiary driver | 15:42 |
| ubuntu-mate | The broadcom was an issue when I was trying linux distros on my macbook air | 15:42 |
| ubuntu-mate | And an issue with my 10 year old Acer that is still kicking :) | 15:43 |
| ubuntu-mate | Well thanks for the answers all. I think I'm going to pull the trigger and install. | 15:44 |
| masnell____ | Enjoy! | 15:45 |
