[02:24] <megazell> Hey all. I have a small issue. Any takers?
[04:19] <dunder> Downloaded Ubuntu Mate but I couldn't validate it. It said not licensed for commercial use. ? I have Windows 8.1 on a tablet. What gives?
[04:20] <dunder> Can't unzip it either.
[04:30] <dunder> Uh, well, it is late. Me gotta go.
[05:10] <TaZeR> wtf thats weird ^
[05:10] <ouroumov__> yup

[15:22] <ubuntu-mate> hello, considering coming back to linux after about 15 years and have some questions if someone is game to talk shop
[15:25] <masnell____> fire away, can see if we can help
[15:26] <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?
[15:27] <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 :)
[15:28] <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
[15:29] <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
[15:30] <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
[15:31] <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
[15:32] <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
[15:33] <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
[15:34] <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
[15:35] <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?
[15:36] <masnell____> yep
[15:36] <ubuntu-mate> That's a huge relief.
[15:36] <Akuli> i'm still running 14.04 :D
[15:37] <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?
[15:38] <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
[15:39] <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)
[15:40] <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
[15:41] <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 :)
[15:42] <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
[15:43] <ubuntu-mate> And an issue with my 10 year old Acer that is still kicking :)
[15:44] <ubuntu-mate> Well thanks for the answers all.  I think I'm going to pull the trigger and install.
[15:45] <masnell____> Enjoy!
[17:25] <guy> how do i change my text color in hex chat? i was able to change the background and default text color
[17:26] <guy> nevermind local color 30 did it
[17:26] <Akuli> yes, that's it
[17:27] <guy> haha i had to change all the gray ones but i found it finally
[17:27] <guy> not a fan of white background
[17:29] <Akuli> right
[17:29] <Akuli> white backgrounds are awful
[17:59] <guy> yo
