[02:53] <n-iCe> hi hi
[02:53] <n-iCe> anyone around?
[11:48] <Joker2017> hello...
[11:48] <Joker2017> Newbie here. Installed Ubuntu Budgie yesterday on my laptop.
[11:49] <Joker2017> Budgie is really impressive.
[11:49] <Joker2017> quite fast and snappy.
[11:50] <fossfreedom_> Joker2017: cheers for the feedback.  Always appreciated!
[11:51] <Joker2017> thanks for this really well constructed distro.
[11:51] <fossfreedom_> :)
[11:52] <Joker2017> how is it different from Solus Budgie?
[11:53] <Joker2017> and in term of resource usage where does it rank in comparison with LXDE, XFCE and MATE?
[11:53] <fossfreedom_> size of the app repository, fixed release schedule probably the main areas of difference
[11:53] <fossfreedom_> budgie sits between xfce and gnome-shell
[11:54] <Joker2017> ok. It means it is slightly heavier than xfce?
[11:55] <Joker2017> can it be used on really old computers?
[11:55] <fossfreedom_> how old is "old"?
[11:56] <Joker2017> I have a 11 years old laptop, runs on Intel Celeron M Single core 1.5 Ghz cpu, 2 GBs RAM and 40 GBs HDD.
[11:56] <Joker2017> I have already installed 64 bit version of Ubuntu Budgie on my new laptop. Really enjoying it.
[11:57] <fossfreedom_> memory is the key here
[11:57] <fossfreedom_> so 2GB is the min spec
[11:57] <Joker2017> ok
[11:57] <fossfreedom_> the key is what you use the desktop for
[11:57] <fossfreedom_> so if you are into video editing ... the perhaps you might want to consider a better laptop
[11:57] <Joker2017> browsing, office use, multimedia. But, not for games.
[11:58] <fossfreedom_> general stuff like you say - will work nicely.
[11:58] <Joker2017> No. I use both of these laptops for basic home and office use.
[11:58] <Joker2017> ok.
[11:59] <fossfreedom_> basically try - if it works for you - great...
[11:59] <Joker2017> do all the changes made in Budgie desktop by Solus team get incorporated in Ubuntu Budgie also?
[11:59] <Joker2017> ok
[11:59] <fossfreedom_> if not ... try xfce/lxde based distros instead
[11:59] <Joker2017> ok
[11:59] <fossfreedom_> yes - same budgie-desktop code base
[12:00] <Joker2017> ok
[12:00] <Joker2017> do I need to install Ubuntu Software Centre in U Budgie?
[12:00] <Joker2017> to get more apps.
[12:01] <fossfreedom_> ubuntu budgie comes with gnome-software centre by default
[12:01] <Joker2017> ok. Installing other software centres not necessary?
[12:02] <fossfreedom_> if you are comfortable with terminal ... or use something like synaptic - you've got lots of options
[12:02] <Joker2017> I am not that comfortable with terminal.
[12:03] <Joker2017> btw, any particular advatages of Ubuntu Budgie over Solus Budgie?
[12:04] <fossfreedom_> I'm perhaps the wrong person to ask.  Try both - see what fits with you.
[12:04] <Joker2017> ok
[12:08] <Joker2017> btw, is Budgie available for 16.04.2 also?
[12:08] <fossfreedom_> yes - https://ubuntubudgie.org/downloads
[12:08] <Joker2017> ok. It is available.
[12:08] <Joker2017> thanks a lot.
[12:09] <Joker2017> of all the flavors of Ubuntu I like this a lot.
[12:09] <Joker2017> have tried lubuntu, xubuntu, unity and mate so far.
[14:18] <polibus> hi anyone have tried skippy-xd with budgie 17.04
[14:18] <polibus> ??
[14:20] <fossfreedom_> yes
[14:20] <fossfreedom_> why?
[14:22] <polibus> the mouse binding works to you??
[14:22] <fossfreedom_> never used the mouse binding - always keyboard
[14:23] <polibus> sorry not the binding to lounch skippy but the "focus" option and the other
[14:24] <fossfreedom_> I've never used skippy in anyway other than via the keyboard - so sorry, can't help here.
[14:25] <polibus> ok
[19:26] <giang> more people in gitter, right ?
[19:27] <fossfreedom> yes
[20:14] <giang> well, my friends use differient chat app, like facebook, skype
[20:14] <giang> google hangout sometimes
[20:15] <giang> so pidgin is my choice to solve that problems, one chat client to handle them all
[20:16] <giang> but pudgin is not support gitter
[20:16] <giang> fortunatetly, ubutu budgie has irc
[20:51] <fossfreedom> giang: gitter has an IRC bridge - https://irc.gitter.im/
[20:56] <giang> let me try
