| FireStriker | Hi how big is the install of xubuntu 64bit (LTS)? Want to know how big to have the second partition be. | 06:47 |
|---|---|---|
| flocculant | FireStriker: a clean install in a vm uses ~3.5Gb, iirc the installer expects just over 6Gb to allow install | 07:27 |
| FireStriker | 6 ok | 07:29 |
| FireStriker | Hey all I'm working on my other laptop. How do do I duel boot Xubuntu with win8 (uefi) | 10:09 |

| frankiee_ | Hi! So, it seems I have to revert to Xubuntu 12.04 due to my non-PAE CPU (Intel Celeron M 1.40GHz). If I simply do a `do-release-upgrade` after this, will I get the latest version of Xfce, audio/video codecs etc.? | 11:13 |
| azgonareth | hi guys | 12:18 |
| MoBeats | hi | 12:24 |
| MoBeats | frankiee_ ymmv with do-release-upgrade. | 12:27 |
| dCLCp | Is there any alternative to Evernote for Xubuntu/ | 13:22 |
| dCLCp | *? | 13:22 |
| dCLCp | I tried to get everpad working but for some reason there's nothing in the package manager for xubuntu. I tried to install it through ppa but it kept saying there was nothing there. Am I stuck running evernote through wine / browser/ | 13:24 |
| dCLCp | Also what's a good backup solution for my OS? | 13:24 |
| akxwi-dave | dCLCp: there was nixnote which used to sync with evernote | 13:27 |
| akxwi-dave | there was also nevernote as well | 13:27 |
| akxwi-dave | oh and everpad if I remeber right | 13:27 |
| dCLCp | Yes. I tried really hard to get everpad to work but it wouldn't. | 13:29 |
| dCLCp | Couldn't install it any which way I tried. | 13:29 |
| dCLCp | looks like nixpad isn't in synaptic/software manager either. | 13:31 |
| dCLCp | looks like nixnote will work after all. | 13:33 |
| akxwi-dave | personally I like deja-dup for my backup | 14:06 |
| akxwi-dave | I set mine up to put the backup file into my dropbox folder on the PC and allow that sync online.. | 14:07 |
| tengelic | Hi! Should i fill a bug about thunar's slow startup? | 16:34 |

| tengelic | ? | 18:00 |
| John__ | Hello, I bought a new laptop with amd gpu and i'm confused about the current state of amd drivers. Can someone explain what are all these drivers, fglrx, ati, amdgpu, amdgpu-pro? I want the best recommended driver for performance | 20:49 |
| Unit193 | !crosspost | John__ | 20:49 |
| ubottu | John__: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 20:49 |
| glitchd | can anyone tell me ubuntu with the xubuntu desktop installed is faster than a xubuntu install? | 21:17 |
| glitchd | can anyone tell me why* ubuntu with the xubuntu desktop installed is faster than a xubuntu install? | 21:18 |
| tmsbrg | glitchd, what do you mean faster? As in better performance? I don't think so. Xubuntu is basically just Ubuntu with the XFCE desktop. | 21:41 |
| glitchd | tmsbrg, you see, thats the weird part. | 21:42 |
| glitchd | i have install ubuntu and added the xubuntu desktop, it performed awesome. | 21:42 |
| glitchd | then on a reinstall, i install just xubuntu straight forward, same machine, same kernel, same ram, everything the same except for the original ubuntu install, and it performed like poo. | 21:43 |
| glitchd | thats why im asking | 21:43 |
| tmsbrg | maybe check in xfce4-taskamanger if some process is using a lot of CPU or memory | 21:44 |
| glitchd | nope nothing out of the ordinary | 21:45 |
| tmsbrg | could also be something with default settings, though it seems weird. You could try disabling display compositing too in Settings->Window Manager Tweaks->Compositor | 21:45 |
| glitchd | just the overall feel of the desktop operations are not as fast | 21:45 |
| tmsbrg | could also be a coincidence with something else that changed, computers are complicated | 21:46 |
| glitchd | indeed they are, thats why i was asking about it. maybe there was a difference between the 2 os variants that i didnt know about. | 21:48 |
| tmsbrg | nothing I know myself, but I'm just another user | 21:48 |
| glitchd | right on | 21:49 |
| howard__ | Hello, I am just setting up xubuntu 16.04.1; what firewall setting would you advise for the avg. desktop user? Or any kind of AV setup? | 22:36 |
