arraybolt3[m] | What old, now-EOL version of Ubuntu did you think was the best? What feature made it really stand out to you? | 02:06 |
oerheks | 8.04, artwork | 02:06 |
arraybolt3[m] | (Mine was 16.04 - I used ChaletOS (a Xubuntu unofficial derivative) which was a beautiful operating system. I liked the non-Snap LXD app since it was easier to make work with certain things, and I loved how snappy and responsive the system was versus any other OS I had used up until then.) | 02:07 |
oerheks | arraybolt3[m], do you dislike snaps? | 02:09 |
arraybolt3[m] | No, I like Snaps, but trying to passthrough your GPU into an LXD container is doable when you aren't using LXD in a Snap. Not so doable when Snaps are involved (learned that one the hard way...). | 02:09 |
guiverc | I liked 11.04 Ubuntu Desktop; GNOME 2.26 or something; I didn't use the default Unity DE though but the GNOME 2 flashback/classic or whatever it was | 02:09 |
Bashing-om | 10.04 Ubuntu - from Kubuntu 9.04 -- pre upstart ! | 02:11 |
arraybolt3[m] | PRE-upstart?!? Wow, didn't know there was anything before Upstart! | 02:12 |
arraybolt3[m] | (In Ubuntu anyway - I know there were other init systems, but I thought it was Upstart and then systemd.) | 02:12 |
arraybolt3[m] | guiverc: Was that kind of like Ubuntu MATE? | 02:13 |
guiverc | MATE didn't yet exist, but for sure YEP... | 02:13 |
guiverc | (there is a MATE config that's pretty close anyway; part way between the GNOME 2 in 11.04 & 11.10... MATE being closer than 11.10 was) | 02:15 |
oerheks | Which ubuntu version started with simultaniously download updates and install from dvd? | 02:17 |
oerheks | epic | 02:17 |
* guiverc has no idea about downloading updates during install.. I always installed [older releases] offline as I'd post-install switch to a quota-free mirror and thus could then update & add the desktop(s) I wanted (quota free) | 02:24 | |
arg_ | hey. | 07:53 |
arg_ | what's your favorite thing about Ubuntu? compared to other linuxes or OS? | 07:54 |
arg_ | (for me, it's that it is widely spread, bigger community/forum, and sort of easy access, for config the desktop i mean...though that last part is also true for most linux distrib nowdays id say) | 07:56 |
=== coconut_ is now known as coconut |
