Thedarkb | do you reckon Lubuntu will be reasonably usable with 256mb RAM and a Pentium M? | 17:08 |
---|---|---|
Thedarkb | I'm using TinyCore at the moment but the UI is a little shit. | 17:08 |
Thedarkb | If you think Lubuntu won't run well, I'll just switch to FVWM. | 17:10 |

small-data | Greetings. New to Lubuntu but not to Linux. I'm not getting along well with the Lubuntu Software Center. I search for packages that I know are there (can install from command line) and it doesn't find them. Could it be something I'm doing/not doing? | 18:59 |
wxl | we sitll have lubuntu software center on a release version? i don't think we should. it's broken. | 19:00 |
small-data | wxl: 16.04.3 | 19:01 |
wxl | well tl;dr don't use it | 19:01 |
small-data | wxl: TYVM ;-) Glad to know it's not me! | 19:02 |
small-data | wxl: Is there an alternate GUI tool, or is it best to just stick to apt on the command line? | 19:02 |
wxl | well my opinion is that apt is your best bet but synaptic and gnome software are both options | 19:03 |
small-data | Right I did see Synaptic Package Manager. Thanks again | 19:04 |
small-data | Looks like there's a new application, just called "Software" in 17.10. Is that any better? I seemed to have similar issues with that, but it's on an older machine. Performance seemed pretty bad too... | 19:07 |
wxl | small-data: i'm pretty sure that's gnome software | 19:14 |
small-data | wxl: sure enough, looks like it. | 19:16 |
small-data | I do have an issue with it finding packages though. | 19:23 |
