| solasoul | hi everyone just wanted to say awesome OS | 00:51 |

| studio-user218 | hi | 01:02 |
| studio-user218 | any one | 01:02 |
| nicowe | hello | 19:39 |
| askloop | hi world, | 19:50 |
| sambagirl | is anyone having ubuntu freezing up regularly to the point you sometimes have to reboot? | 21:58 |
| sakrecoer | sambagirl: no, that isn't the expected behaviour... | 22:03 |
| sambagirl | what is the default window manager for the current release i just downloaded it and i dont see applications places or system which i prefer since ubuntu 5.x | 22:06 |
| sakrecoer | sambagirl: ubuntu 5.x ? | 22:07 |
| sambagirl | yes version number | 22:07 |
| sakrecoer | sambagirl: the current LTS is 16.04 | 22:07 |
| sambagirl | re-read my previous post | 22:08 |
| sakrecoer | right, window manager.. | 22:08 |
| sakrecoer | but we use XFCE as Desktop Environement. | 22:09 |
| sakrecoer | but, i get all hesitant about window manager | 22:09 |
| sambagirl | ahh ok | 22:10 |
| sambagirl | i am installing it aside windows 10 on this touchscreen i picked up. doing it as i type | 22:11 |
| sakrecoer | intersting :) | 22:12 |
| sakrecoer | i'm probably not your best source, but the closest i get to "window manger" is xfwm4 | 22:13 |
| sambagirl | well it';s on its way aside 10. i tried this with earlier ubuntu studio and touchscreen works fab. | 22:15 |
| sambagirl | i just cant stomach windows | 22:15 |
| sambagirl | doing through usb via rufus | 22:16 |
| sambagirl | forget rufus i used that to write the image | 22:16 |
| sakrecoer | wow! i need to try that too sometime. touchscreen that is... | 22:17 |
| sakrecoer | but how do you handle the keyboard things.. | 22:18 |
| sakrecoer | ? | 22:18 |
| solasoul | rufus is great i have it setup on windows 10 alongside...yeah windows does get tiring after a while plus for IT proffessionals Ubuntu offers a more stable environment to work | 22:18 |
| sambagirl | you mean the popup for typing? | 22:19 |
| sambagirl | the onscreen keyboard? | 22:19 |
| sambagirl | well first i will install mate for the desktop | 22:19 |
| sakrecoer | :)yeah, that is what i was thinking too, but i keep on hearing "everything is different becuase: touchscreen so the hole thing needs to be different" intuitively i'm feelin its all about whiping up a cream about appstores and big shiny resource craving buttons... | 22:20 |
| sambagirl | brb | 22:20 |
| sambagirl | http://www.webupd8.org/2016/06/install-mate-114-in-ubuntu-mate-1604.html | 22:23 |
| sakrecoer | sambagirl: ok, mate. but i mean, no worries? touchscreen with regular desktop layout: all good? | 22:24 |
| sambagirl | still installing but i have experienced it in the past and it works excellent. | 22:26 |
| sambagirl | holy mackeral i think it wiped out my windows 10 build | 22:29 |
| sakrecoer | haha! like, i've been quite because i haven't tried. but i really cant' see the reasons behind the "this pocket computer that is as good as your 15 year old machine needs a completly different type of everything becuase: touchscreen" | 22:30 |
| sakrecoer | oh... | 22:31 |
| sambagirl | i got the touchscreen for 50$ :D | 22:31 |
| sambagirl | it's an asus ca2000 or sometrhing like that | 22:31 |
| sambagirl | i couldnt pass it up | 22:31 |
| sambagirl | i had thought grub would have ubuntu studio and windows 10 options but all i see is ubuntu | 22:33 |
| solasoul | if you get synaptic you can install ubuntu studio from there | 22:35 |
| solasoul | thats how i got it | 22:35 |
| solasoul | use the base ubuntu to install synaptic package manager | 22:35 |
| solasoul | search studio and select ubuntu studio from the results be careful though there will be a bunch of excess programs installed so make sure your partition has enough disk space i had to manually uninstall a few programs i didnt need from the terminal | 22:38 |
| sambagirl | oh yes i forgot about that | 22:38 |
| sambagirl | i just wanted to see if i can still access the 10 partition, if it even still exists. i had a ton of stuff on there damnit | 22:39 |
| solasoul | yes | 22:39 |
| solasoul | but the key is F12 on a laptop dont know about the device | 22:39 |
| sambagirl | umm | 22:41 |
| sambagirl | i have to get back into 10. have to figure this out. i hope its still there. i will do a hdd check thing brb | 22:42 |
| `{^v^} | ? | 22:42 |
| sambagirl | jesus christ i cant believe gparted isnt included in the build? | 22:45 |
| sambagirl | so ubuntu 16.04 cant see windows 10? is that it? | 22:47 |
| sambagirl | it said duing the install it was installing it along side 10 | 22:48 |
| sambagirl | well mate is almost finished | 22:48 |
| sambagirl | it's there! after the install of mate it shows up on the grub menu now. | 22:50 |
| sambagirl | :) | 22:50 |
| `{^v^} | you dont have an icon for it on ur desktop? (icon of HDD with $partition-size Volume) | 22:50 |
| `{^v^} | weird | 22:50 |
| sambagirl | heh | 22:50 |
| sambagirl | i am booting into 10 for a test then restarting to studio | 22:50 |
| `{^v^} | im surprised to find shotwell wasnt included | 22:51 |
| sakrecoer | sambagirl: http://askubuntu.com/questions/661947/add-windows-10-to-grub-os-list | 22:52 |
| sakrecoer | o/ | 22:52 |
| sambagirl | sakrecoer it's working now | 22:52 |
| sambagirl | once i installed mate it showed up | 22:52 |
| `{^v^} | truly wierd that installing mate updated grub | 22:53 |
| sambagirl | i saw in the build process of installing mate it was pointing to 10 so i felt better but i just loged into it and it works | 22:53 |
| sambagirl | now let me try to go back to studio | 22:53 |
| sakrecoer | its part of the finall install process i think, updating grub... but i might just be too tired :) bye \o | 22:53 |
| solasoul | great best regards | 22:54 |
| `{^v^} | oh yeah your right. after installing win10 is mssing from firstboot but is present after that | 23:16 |
