[02:23] <boysha> quick q - how to upgrade from development to lts?
[15:04] <tuxlion> aloha team - how is your weekend coming?
[18:47] <jfoor> New to Budgie as of 18.04. Is there a way to pin apps to the "taskbar" built in? Or does this require a different style of panel/bar?

[19:43] <totalmongobaer> hi
[19:43] <totalmongobaer> how to upgrade from development to lts?
[19:44] <totalmongobaer> can you tell me please?
[19:48] <mpmc> totalmongobaer: If you're already running the dev & have updated fully (no updates available) you should be on LTS already.
[19:48] <totalmongobaer> ok thx
[22:04] <budgi3n00b> hi there. as the nick says, im a total n00b to budgie
[22:04] <budgi3n00b> but ive been using ubuntu for about 10 years
[22:05] <budgi3n00b> why choose bionic budgie rather than bionic beaver (desktop)?
[22:06] <budgi3n00b> im asking this from a budgie installation in a vm, and it looks GREAT. just not sure what all the advantages over stock ubuntu bionic is
[22:11] <totalmongobaer>  bionic beaver budgie
[22:12] <totalmongobaer>  bionic beaver is ubuntu gnome , the main distro
[22:14] <budgi3n00b> hi totalmongobaer
[22:15] <budgi3n00b> yeah i know all that. my question is: why budgie rather than stock desktop?
[22:15] <totalmongobaer> hi
[22:16] <totalmongobaer> its more classic menü and handling the windows
[22:16] <totalmongobaer> gnome is like 3D needs to much CPU Power
[22:16] <totalmongobaer> eats more Battery
[22:17] <totalmongobaer> budie is faster
[22:17] <budgi3n00b> ok, that makes sense. thanks totalmongobaer :)
[22:18] <totalmongobaer> under budgie you can install all the indicators
[22:18] <totalmongobaer> that usefull is on Gnome

[22:19] <budgi3n00b> heh, yeah. i just went through getting a replacement for the old system-load-monitor working on my stock ubuntu vm
[22:19] <budgi3n00b> that's the most important indicator i nee
[22:19] <budgi3n00b> d
[22:20] <totalmongobaer> yes you can turn it on
[22:20] <totalmongobaer> budgie is very good for this
[22:20] <totalmongobaer> for me the best ubuntu Derivate
[22:21] <totalmongobaer> http://solus-project.com/
[22:21] <totalmongobaer> budgie comes from Solus OS
[22:21] <totalmongobaer> budgi3n00b
[22:23] <budgi3n00b> cool. what is the relationship between those projects exactly?
[22:23] <budgi3n00b> is solus mostly a desktop env, that has been ported onto an ubuntu base to form budgie, or something else entirely?
[22:23] <totalmongobaer> just the Desktop Enviroment
[22:23] <totalmongobaer> only
[22:23] <totalmongobaer> no
[22:24] <totalmongobaer> Solus-OS is an Gnu/Linux Distribution
[22:24] <totalmongobaer> https://solus-project.com/solus/experiences/
[22:25] <totalmongobaer> read it
[22:25] <totalmongobaer> try it out
[22:25]  * budgi3n00b reads it
[22:25] <budgi3n00b> im trying it out right now ;)
[22:25] <budgi3n00b> ... in a vm
[22:25] <totalmongobaer> and make an update first
[22:26] <totalmongobaer> with:
[22:26] <totalmongobaer> sudo eopkg up
[22:26] <totalmongobaer> in the Terminal
[22:26] <totalmongobaer> and reboot after that
[22:27] <budgi3n00b> oh. you mean try out solus os
[22:28] <budgi3n00b> ive spent too many years on ubuntu to throw that away now :P
[22:29] <budgi3n00b> the thought of a non-apt/deb system makes me think rpm... THE HORROR!
[22:30] <budgi3n00b> anyway i gtg. thanks for your time and responses. having been where you are, i really appreciate it. :)
[22:30] <totalmongobaer> ok
[22:30] <totalmongobaer> my pleasure
[22:30] <totalmongobaer> yes you can use Solus as a Main distro
[22:31] <totalmongobaer> it based on no other Distro like debian or opensusa, Solus is independend
[22:32] <totalmongobaer> sorry my english is not that good
