[15:27] Yeah a lot has changed. I tried to install Arch because I've always loved the DIY distro [15:27] arch isn't really diy, its read the wiki :) [15:28] It didn't go so well so I'm looking for another distro to use while get my linux "chops" back up [15:28] a minimal debian installation is nice [15:28] 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 [15:29] 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] plus setting up VMs and webservers for local teast is super easy with VirtualBox etc [15:30] of course, if something's not packaged you can always build from source :) [15:30] Most of the tools I use on OSX I see are available on linux, just currious if they are stable [15:30] they should run the same [15:31] good point about source, I forgot. [15:31] of course, you won't find many commercial tools for linux but there are free alternatives to many things [15:31] 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] I've never been a fan of commercial software [15:31] I've been using GIMP and Inkscape on OSX [15:32] then you're ready to just aptitude install your favorite software :) [15:32] sudo aptitude install gimp inkscape [15:32] I'm just tired of the apple business model of forced upgrades that break working environments [15:32] sounds like microsoft also [15:32] I think both of those packages are in the Welcome setup for Ubuntu-MATE from memory [15:33] for a developer, installing stuff with the terminal is just much faster [15:33] Ctrl+Alt+T and we're ready to go [15:33] My main question is just stability. [15:33] should be awesome [15:33] if it's not something's wrong :) [15:33] just confirmed - within 5min of having Ubuntu MATE booted the 1st time, you will have GIMP & Inkscape installed and running [15:34] I was reading comments in an article today and someone was saying git is broken in 16.04. Is that true? [15:34] well... [15:34] so far i haven't heard anything good about 16.04 :) [15:34] but again, if it is just build from source and you're done [15:34] I use git everyday and I havent had git problems - plus current release is 16.04.1 [15:35] a broken git would be indeed awful [15:35] YES [15:35] So I downloaded this ISO from the UbuMATE website today so it should be 16.04.1 and git should work? [15:36] yep [15:36] That's a huge relief. [15:36] i'm still running 14.04 :D [15:37] of course, git isn't installed by default, but it just takes one command to get it installed [15:37] Is there a main reason you are running 14.04 over 16.04? [15:38] 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] but really, both of these are based on my own opinions more than facts [15:39] Okay, I should also say I'm running on a laptop. [15:39] how much processor power? [15:39] I bought a couple year old thinkpad to replace my couple year old macbook air [15:39] One good reason to run 16.04 over 14.04 is if you have a very new system (kernel and xorg support) [15:40] i5 8GB ram [15:40] Another one is that 16.04 has more support for bugs, devs don't care much for previous releases [15:40] alkisg, i can install the 16.04 on 14.04. [15:40] and i still think there is less bugs to begin with on 14.04. [15:40] 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] ubuntu-mate, you'll have no trouble at all running 16.04 on it if you want to :) [15:40] i5 8GB shld be good with MATE [15:41] yeah [15:41] i5 8gb ram should be good with any os :) [15:41] it seems snappy right now. I'm doing all this from the live image. [15:41] both of my main computers have 2GB [15:41] Windows is terrible on any machine... [15:41] :) [15:41] windows 10 is [15:41] Everything is working out of the box including wireless, but I made sure to get a laptop without a Broadcom wireless chip :) [15:42] actually, most broadcoms are supported just fine :D [15:42] good move [15:42] but you do need a propertiary driver [15:42] The broadcom was an issue when I was trying linux distros on my macbook air [15:43] And an issue with my 10 year old Acer that is still kicking :) [15:44] Well thanks for the answers all. I think I'm going to pull the trigger and install. [15:45] Enjoy! === scottt is now known as Guest64933 [17:25] how do i change my text color in hex chat? i was able to change the background and default text color [17:26] nevermind local color 30 did it [17:26] yes, that's it [17:27] haha i had to change all the gray ones but i found it finally [17:27] not a fan of white background [17:29] right [17:29] white backgrounds are awful [17:59] yo [21:52] hey === ubuntu is now known as Guest17161 [21:53] better be guest [22:24] Im back on Ubuntu-Mate!
