Lindoahoy10:33
LindoSo iv got a question i suspect i could google.10:34
Lindois ubuntu mate the same as ubuntu, in termes of getting it to work_10:35
Lindolike the same 'base' but different packaging10:35
alkisgLindo: ubuntu, lubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu-mate etc all have the same base and packaging, and the difference is the desktop environment, like, the menu, the windows, a few tools etc12:13
Lindothats good to know, i recon ubuntu is one of the big communities12:14
alkisgubuntu is the biggest of them, yes. Ubuntu-mate is for more tranditional users, more lightweight etc12:15
Lindocompletly new to this linux thing, so i need all the help i can get to get set up with cs>go and just functionality12:15
alkisgIf you want games, better to use windows12:15
Lindoyeah, thats what i got from reading a bit, that this was a more lightweight system, wich i guess i want for gaming performance12:15
alkisgIt's possible to set up some games in linux, but that comes after you like it for the rest of the stuff12:15
Lindohehe12:16
alkisggaming performance isn't very related to the desktop environment12:16
Lindoyeah, but i dont really have a windows license, and now my win7 is fucking up all sorts of ways12:16
Lindonot licensed this that blah blah warnings all over12:16
alkisgOK12:16
LindoI recon il install this mate thing, it looks nice enough for me, i guess its just a matter of getting used to this new, for me completly ilogical filing system and such12:18
alkisgIt has an "advanced menu" in the settings that looks a bit like the windows xp menu12:19
Lindothe \controll center\_12:20
Lindo?12:20
alkisgsystem > preferences > appearance > mate tweak12:21
Lindouh, i liked this 'advanced' menu checkbox12:22
Lindomeh, i got to vacume ;{12:23
Lindoay ayy13:00
alkisgya yaa13:00
Lindoana, so you say linux isnt good for gaming preformance13:00

InopsHi all. I've just recently installed 16.04. I'm having problem with Qt programs. Their menu dropdowns. when on my secondary monitor, popup a good distance down from the menu buttom (e.g. 'File'). This seems to be an example of this bug: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-29278 (see this for an example). Anyone aware of how to fix this?19:34
