| mate|39105 | I am long time ubuntu user and have a few questions if any of you do not mind? | 00:18 |
|---|---|---|
| ohemdevin | What're your inquiries, mr/ms mate? | 00:25 |
| mate|39105 | just if the commands for the command line are any different | 00:27 |
| ohemdevin | Oh, so you're a long-time user who's come back to Ubuntu after a break? No, much of the commands are going to be the same if you're using bash. | 00:28 |
| mate|39105 | no i am currently on Ubuntu but i saw ubuntu mate and fell in love xD | 00:28 |
| ohemdevin | Oh! | 00:28 |
| ohemdevin | Ubuntu MATE rules, haha. | 00:29 |
| ohemdevin | No, you're going to be having the same experience (w/ terminal commands), but the GUI will be different. | 00:29 |
| mate|39105 | does it work well with Invidia graphics card and AMD cpu | 00:29 |
| ohemdevin | Though I'm sure you're already aware of that. :P | 00:29 |
| mate|39105 | yes main reason for me debating on switching | 00:30 |
| ohemdevin | I'm using the Nvidia open-source drivers and they work without a hitch, but if you're using a newer Nvidia card, then you'll probably want to be using the proprietary drivers. | 00:30 |
| mate|39105 | I 750 mate | 00:30 |
| mate|39105 | Ti 750 sorry | 00:31 |
| ohemdevin | I generally use GNU/Linux with AMD APUs and they have worked flawlessly for me. | 00:31 |
| ohemdevin | Ah, then you should definitely install the proprietary drivers available in 'Software & Updates' under the option 'Additional Drivers'. | 00:31 |
| ohemdevin | Esp. if you're using that computer for gaming. | 00:32 |
| mate|39105 | alright Ive made my mind up then | 00:32 |
| ohemdevin | I also recommend changing the compositor to Compton in MATE Tweak. :) | 00:32 |
| ohemdevin | Or Compiz. Some people use that too, I guess. *shrug* | 00:32 |
| mate|39105 | im switching to mate then xD | 00:32 |
| mate|39105 | its open source as well? | 00:32 |
| mate|39105 | im assuming so but it does not hurt to know for sure | 00:33 |
| ohemdevin | Yes, Ubuntu MATE is open-source. :D | 00:33 |
| mate|39105 | fracking awesome good deal then thanks for your help mate | 00:34 |
| ohemdevin | No problem, sir/ma'am! | 00:34 |
| mate|39105 | one last thing | 00:34 |
| ohemdevin | Mhm? | 00:34 |
| mate|39105 | should a lot of the same software be on mate that is on regular Ubuntu | 00:35 |
| mate|39105 | like Pycharm code blocks and such | 00:35 |
| ohemdevin | Yes. There is a welcome screen when you start Ubuntu MATE for the first time that will allow you to install the Ubuntu Software Centre. | 00:35 |
| mate|39105 | good deal thanks | 00:36 |
| ohemdevin | Also, as long as that software is available in the default Ubuntu repos, then you can install them and they should work as intended on any desktop environment that you choose. | 00:38 |
