| delt | hello | 06:27 |
| delt | this is me from mint 19.2 | 06:27 |
| delt | xubuntu latest, irc fails to connect :/ | 06:28 |
| delt | (from link in installer) | 06:28 |
| Unit193 | The link to https://webchat.freenode.net ..? | 06:29 |
| delt | yeah webchat.freennode.net/#xubuntu | 06:31 |
| delt | at least that's what the browser shows when you click it with the mouse | 06:32 |
| delt | oh btw how much RAM minimum you recommend for using very basic tasks? (e-mail, sometimes youtube videos etc) ...? | 06:33 |
| delt | in mint (also derived from ubuntu) 2GB works well, how about xubuntu? | 06:34 |
| Unit193 | The biggest thing is going to be the browser, firefox and chrome eat tons of ram Perhaps look into installing youtube-dl and mpv. | 06:34 |
| Unit193 | Xubuntu itself will have zero issues with 2G, that's what I use (though it's not really the best with firefox, all the time..) | 06:34 |
| delt | Unit193: yeah agreed with that.... firefox (especially as an open source, multiplatform project) should eat up LOTS less mem.... :/ | 06:35 |
| delt | chrome is also good, but more limited in terms of licensing etc... | 06:36 |
| Unit193 | I even have an Xubuntu-like system that only has 1G of ram, but I don't use firefox really on that. It's mainly headless (still runs a GUI, but only VNC'd in or ssh.) | 06:36 |
| delt | anyway i prefer firefox for me personally (despite the bloat) ... but for friends/family, as long as it's not the microsuck "windows explorer" aka "edge" :) | 06:37 |
| Unit193 | Anywho, see mpv, specifically with the --ytdl-format option. | 06:37 |
| delt | Unit193: i also have a home server, manages my whole home network, wifi, internetn connection etc.... been running slackware on a p4 / 256MB for over 15 years, mobo fried so for now it's running a spare mobo with 2GB ....didn't even need to reinstall :D | 06:39 |
| delt | internet** | 06:39 |
| delt | oh mobo on that home server fried like 2 or 3 weeks ago | 06:39 |
| delt | after a good 20 years of faithful service | 06:40 |
| delt | oh btw i must say, very nice distro :) testing it right now in a vm | 06:46 |
| delt | i was a slackware user since like the mid 1990's until like 2013 or 2014 when i tried out a few more "modern" distros and settled on mint.. with slack always running on my aforementioned hub machine :) | 06:47 |
| delt | iirc i tried this one (xubuntu) but there was some issues with it.... anyway i'll keep you guys posted | 06:48 |
| delt | thanks again very much for (what so far looks like) a very nice linux based os!! | 06:48 |
| Unit193 | Sure thing. | 06:53 |
| delt | =) | 07:12 |
| delt | Unit193: just curious, are you part of the xubuntu dev/maintainer team? | 07:12 |
| Unit193 | Yep. | 07:14 |
| Unit193 | I assist with maintaining Xfce in Debian and Xubuntu both, actually. | 07:15 |
| delt | Unit193: ah, awesome :D i haven't directly contributed to the linux/foss world in years.... i'd really like to have the chance again, if possible | 07:46 |
| delt | s/years/almost a decade/ | 07:46 |
| Unit193 | Well if nothing else, Xubuntu could always use testers. | 07:47 |
| delt | ok, good to know... but for xfce i was kind of put off when ofourdan & co. just blatantly told me the IPC in my updates sucked cos my approach was too X11 specific, meanwhile 5 or 6 years later X11 is still the dominant graphic system on *nix other than apple :/ | 08:02 |
| delt | that was like 2013 or 2014 | 08:02 |

| yeaboi | hello there | 16:43 |
| neyder | Hello, I upgraded to xubuntu eoan las friday, and i'm getting random lockscreens , even if i disbled lockscreen after a while in config | 18:48 |
| Spass | hello neyder, my guess is that you have Light Locker AND xfce4-screensaver installed, do you have any Screensaver preferences in the main settings window now? | 18:52 |
| Spass | you can check if you have them both installed using "apt-cache policy light-locker" and "apt-cache policy xfce4-screensaver" | 18:54 |
| neyder | Hi Spass yup i gow screensaver and power settings | 18:54 |
| neyder | which i should remove, does upgrade process should remove it to? | 18:55 |
| Spass[m] | xfce4-screensaver is default in eoan, so I'd go with this one | 18:56 |
| Spass[m] | yeah, I think that the upgrade process should do a better job in this particulat case, not sure if that's easy tho | 18:57 |
| neyder | xfce4-screensaver should conflicts with ligh-locker | 18:57 |
| neyder | or something | 18:57 |
