| muzeemo | hi all, i have just recently installed ubuntu mate, love the whole look n feel of linux, i want to know if there are some guidelines on how to migrate office tools into linux, specially outlook | 02:08 |
|---|---|---|
| muzeemo | can anyone help or point me to the right direction | 02:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muzeemo, Outlook.. ugh.. go back to windows if you want to run trash like that.. | 02:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Software is installed via package manager https://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1266 | 02:16 |
| muzeemo | well im happy to move to other options, but for exchange and running a small business, id love to know what and how i can move all/ everyone off windows and to linux, but for example thunderbird i have tried and its missing a small feature like emails in 'conversation' style | 02:17 |
| muzeemo | also apologies for being a noob, but how do i and if there is something that i can setup so when i press the windows key in ubuntu mate, start menu opens up? | 02:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | You mean MS exchange ? | 02:18 |
| muzeemo | yes ms exachange | 02:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | win key should bring up mani menu now.. | 02:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | I am running Mint Mate and there are minor differences.. | 02:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muzeemo, You need to shed the MS based tech.. You will be glad you did. | 02:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | MS will continually change minor things to cause Linux users grief | 02:21 |
| muzeemo | id love to move from ms tools and programs as long as what we get in linux would be close enough so its not a shock to those ms fans suddenly | 02:21 |
| muzeemo | i can see why ms would do that | 02:21 |
| muzeemo | but its little things that if i could customize a OS linux base that would be user freidnly and easy to migrate from windows, id get so many people to jump onboard | 02:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Find tools and services that will work with open offive of libre office | 02:22 |
| muzeemo | like im running on ubuntu mate currrently, 'start / windows button' does not open the menu, my winodws key does not do anything, not sure how to fix it | 02:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muzeemo, get Mint Mate and run live usb | 02:23 |
| muzeemo | another would be outlook running on ms exchange if i can use it / make it work itd be awesome | 02:23 |
| muzeemo | mint on live usb? | 02:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muzeemo, trying to run outlook etc is just wrong | 02:24 |
| muzeemo | @jack, not running outlook as such, but more like i need to be able to connect to ms exchange via tools in linux that will work properly. | 02:24 |
| muzeemo | @jack - why mint and why on live USB? | 02:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muzeemo, you know you can load up a dozen diffeent flavors of mint on usb drives and actually test them without installing them.. and on your hardware setups | 02:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dont try to include exchange server.. in your linux plans | 02:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mint Mate is in my opinion more refined and a much better support room.. Yes I am in there now too | 02:26 |
| muzeemo | i think i have tried more than a dozen different linux flavours, and i think ubuntu mate has come to be the smoothest. ive installed mate now and ive configued everything its just little things like what ive said that im stuck at | 02:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muzeemo, Then you will be there for awhile.. | 02:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Best of luck | 02:27 |

| muzeemo | whats this: http://www.techrepublic.com/article/why-the-linux-mint-hack-is-an-indicator-of-a-larger-problem/ | 02:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | You are NO safer in ubuntu and that was all overblown. | 02:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Linux - ubuntu and mint safety is ten times that of MS OS | 02:36 |
| muzeemo | thats very true | 02:36 |
| muzeemo | im downloading mint gotta give it a shot | 02:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ubuntu had to change policy to all registered users in main room.. mint did not | 02:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muzeemo, go in thier channel on irc | 02:37 |
| muzeemo | will do | 02:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | see the difference.. clem that spearheads mate here is also there | 02:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | muzeemo, 158.140.214.79 In mint you would not see that | 03:08 |

| mark__ | I installed Synaptic on Ubuntu-Mate 17.04. Every time I install something I get an error I have never seen before, although the software still installs. Example Error= "W: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_59.0.3071.109-0ubuntu0.17.04.1360_amd64.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)" | 21:40 |
| mark__ | The error{W: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/} does not occur with every software install from Synaptic??? | 21:58 |
