caotropheusToday I was reading and seeing a couple of videos on Windows 11, I am in shock with their demands. For Years I wonder why people do not switch to Linux (Xubuntu of course)?12:22
gnrpcaotropheus: Because certain usage patterns are wired into people's brains and they don't want to change. Or they don't care. Mostly both, I usppose12:25
caotropheusThat is the may reason. I suppose the Windows use will become very, very expensive, soon and I hope people will start using linux12:27
gnrpNobody will care. And enterprises won't change either because of such things12:30
caotropheusRecently a Filipino worker arrived at my parents in law because of their health issues. She owns an Android phone but never used a computer. She is 36 years old and the only computer they have in her area and at the local school. I installed Lubuntu in an old machine and she already "knows her ways" around the software. I Hope she can see that with old inexpensive computers and the right Linux distro, she may be able to use a comput12:35
caotropheushen she returns back home12:35

xu-help76whello, noob needing help with installing az new printer. I followed all instructions but there's still a missing link15:35
xu-help76wHELP needed please, thanks. Troubleshooting while installing a new orinter under XFCE15:36
xu-help76wthe new printer is HP Envy 6000 series all in one that I'm trying to install to my system, using sudo synaptic. When using a termnial with either the lprm or lpq command, it is my fprmer printer's name that appears, not the new HP 6020 one. There must be some missing link somewhere so that the new printer could be fully installed and recognized by15:39
