| pragomer | when I lock screen in other DE's like KDE or Gnome the my user is preselected and I only have to input password when I want to re-login. In xfce I always have to input again both: username and pw. can I reproduce the easier behavior somehow? | 04:12 |
| nur0n | hey guys, is xubuntu 16.04 based on ubuntu 16.04, and if so, does that means it supports zfs? | 04:12 |
| pragomer | what advantages would I have using xubuntu 17.04 and later 17.10 to using the lts version, exept: kernel and newer programs? are there any significant features? | 04:28 |
| jdwwatts | so I need to Log in each Time ? | 04:41 |
| knome | pragomer, yes, they are essentially the same system | 07:53 |
| knome | pragomer, with a different DE, some application choices and configuration - so zfs should work | 07:53 |
| knome | pragomer, and for the regular release vs LTS; the LTS's are recommended for most stability, so if you need that, then stick with the LTSs | 07:54 |
| knome | pragomer, regular releases give you new software versions and sometimes they can fix bug that are annoying to you | 07:54 |
| pragomer | ok, I think then its gonna be lts. thank you very much knome | 07:54 |
| knome | no problem | 07:54 |
| knome | you can actually upgrade from any version to newest today, the release paths have changed... | 07:55 |
| knome | (not that i can recommend it at this point, but it's possible - and i just did one upgrade from 16.04 to 17.04) | 07:55 |
| pragomer | ok, but I also would always do a fresh installation ;-) | 07:55 |
| knome | sure, whatever works for you :) | 07:55 |
| knome | i upgraded my last system for 5 years without fresh installations via every regular release ;) | 07:56 |
| pragomer | ok. perhaps worth give the updating tool a try ;-) next time | 07:56 |
| knome | the benefit for me personally on upgrading is that i don't have to go through the configuration setup again | 07:57 |
| knome | if you have light customization then a fresh install is likely better and faster | 07:57 |

| craigbass76 | What are the recommended specs, ballpark, for running Xubuntu? I've got 6 gigs of RAM, AMD Athelon 3800 -- oh, wait, it's only a 1ghz... Not good, eh? Chromium brings this puppy to its knees just firing up with a clean profile. | 15:24 |
| diogenes_ | craigbass76, run inxi -Fxrc0, copy the output to some pastebin and share the link here\ | 15:26 |

| diogenes_ | craigbass76, your CPU release date is June 1, 2004 | 15:36 |
| diogenes_ | I'd recommend you to use 32bit version of xubuntu | 15:36 |
| diogenes_ | and even 14.04 | 15:36 |
| craigbass76 | Really... Well, hadn't thought of that... | 15:45 |
| flocculant | craigbass76: you 'might' find using 32 bit helps, not sure. But 14. | 15:51 |
| flocculant | 14.04 is end of life for Xubuntu - has been since April | 15:51 |
| Rumbledethumps | I'm running 16.04.2. Unfortunately, I didn't leave the keyring password blank during installation. How can I disable the annoying "Default Keyring" prompt. I've looked for an answer that applied to Xubuntu with no luck. Thanks! | 15:57 |
| craigbass76 | That's funny that the date is 2004; my father in law got this PC new in like 2012 I think. | 16:01 |
