ar_sahitoI need help00:19
valoriehow can we help, ar_sahito?00:20
ar_sahitoi was asking if there were any way to have ubuntu-gnome as my default de.00:21
ar_sahitoI installed kubuntu.iso actually00:22
ar_sahitoP.S: don't want to lose my apps and games00:22
valorieyou can install gnome-desktop I believe00:23
valoriethen grub will offer you a choice when you login00:23
ar_sahitovalorie would that get me rid of kubuntu?00:23
valorie!info gnome-desktop00:23
ubottuPackage gnome-desktop does not exist in yakkety00:23
valoriear_sahito: no00:23
valoriehmmm, wonder what it is called now00:23
ar_sahitoi am using xenial xerxus ubottu00:24
ar_sahitovalorie? then?00:24
valoriewhy did you install Kubuntu if you wanted Gnome?00:24
ar_sahitoActually I had gnome00:24
valorieas I said, it will offer you a choice00:24
valorie?00:24
ar_sahitothen things happened and it crashed00:24
ar_sahitothen i downloaded kubuntu00:24
ar_sahitoand now I beleive my lap can't handle it.00:25
valoriegnome is not "lighter" than plasma00:25
treshkde run on a potatoe so your laptop is 'ok'00:25
valorieif you want a more light-weight desktop, you might try Lubuntu00:26
valorieit's all a matter of what you like more00:26
valorieboth for the desktop and the apps00:26
valorieof course you can mix it all up if you like00:26
ar_sahitovalorie but then it would get me rid of my kde, right??00:26
valorieno, unless you uninstall plasma and apps, it will be there00:27
valorieah, the command is: `sudo apt install ubuntu-gnome-desktop`00:27
ar_sahitohow can i uninstall plasma then? valorie?00:28
ar_sahitotresh i didn't get that.00:28
valoriehmmm, unsure00:28
valorieuninstalling plasma-destop doesn't get rid of all the parts of it00:28

ubottuAntivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to Windows computers (perhaps using Samba). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus13:41
BluesKaj!ufw13:44
ubottuUbuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has built-in firewall capabilities. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | GUI frontends such as gufw and ufw-kde also exist. | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo13:44
