dognose | Hello there | 23:26 |
dognose | What is the purpose of this chatroom/ | 23:26 |
GridCube | dognose, you can ask questions about support here and someone might be able to point you toward a solution, or might not, depends on who's around | 23:29 |
guiverc | Xubuntu support (supported releases are 22.04 & 23.04) | 23:29 |
dognose | thank you | 23:30 |
* guiverc believes you already knew that | 23:30 | |
dognose | I'm a noobie for the most part. | 23:30 |
dognose | Xubuntu is what exactly? | 23:30 |
rud0lf | dognose: are you named after playstation analog controller? | 23:30 |
rud0lf | they have texture of dog noses | 23:30 |
dognose | ^ haha | 23:31 |
guiverc | Ubuntu Desktop with the Xfce desktop having replaced GNOME (includes desktop & apps) | 23:31 |
dognose | I'll google it, but now that is coincidence | 23:31 |
dognose | So newest iteration of Ubuntu? | 23:31 |
dognose | Or just Gnome? | 23:31 |
dognose | I absolutely love Gnome Ubuntu | 23:31 |
dognose | So if that is what XUbuntu is, it sounds like I'm in the right channel. | 23:31 |
guiverc | Xubuntu 22.04 is the same Ubuntu base as Ubuntu 22.04 Desktop; but GNOME & gnome-apps have been replaced by Xfce & Xfce apps - Xfce is much lighter | 23:31 |
dognose | ok | 23:32 |
dognose | Might be a stupid question, but if I have installed Gnome in Ubuntu, does that mean I then have XUbuntu installed? | 23:32 |
GridCube | no | 23:32 |
guiverc | Ubuntu Desktop by default already has GNOME. | 23:33 |
GridCube | xubuntu is xfce dekstop replacing whatever mainbuntu is running nowadays | 23:33 |
dognose | thankx for clarifying, I had it backwards then | 23:33 |
dognose | I prefer lighter distros. | 23:33 |
GridCube | if you want to run xubuntu and you already have ubuntu installed you just need to run sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop | 23:33 |
dognose | ^ perfect, you answered my next question thankx | 23:33 |
guiverc | all Ubuntu flavors (which includes Xubuntu) are built the same way as Ubuntu Desktop; just using different seed files meaning different packages are included by default.. Xubuntu is a Ubuntu system... | 23:34 |
dognose | Will that just overwrite everything and automatically default to Xubuntu XFCE stuff> | 23:34 |
dognose | ? | 23:34 |
dognose | Or is it two different desktop environments installed? | 23:34 |
dognose | To toggle / choose from | 23:34 |
GridCube | no | 23:34 |
Unit193 | Nope, there should be a choice at the login screen. Though you will still have all of GNOME and whatever extras it has too. | 23:34 |
GridCube | installing xubuntu-desktop will just install the defaults of xubuntu alongside the mainbuntu defaults | 23:35 |
guiverc | my system has 3 DEs installed; Ubuntu Desktop (thus GNOME), Xubuntu Desktop (thus Xfce) & Lubuntu Desktop (LXQt)... I added what I wanted & select which I use when I login | 23:35 |
dognose | ahh ok, you're talking about the bottom right on the login screen? | 23:35 |
GridCube | maybe? it changes with whatever login manager you're running | 23:35 |
dognose | k thankx | 23:35 |
dognose | Wow I didn't realize it was that simple to install alternative desktop environments. | 23:35 |
GridCube | you should be able to chose the desktop from any login manager | 23:36 |
dognose | How much battery life would I save on a laptop you think? I get 10 hours or so on Gnome now, will doing XFCE increase battery life a bit you think? | 23:36 |
xangua | Maybe, maybe not | 23:37 |
dognose | k | 23:37 |
dognose | I think your chatroom is more appropriate to be asking Ubuntu related questions. I don't like bothering 1000~ish people lol | 23:38 |
GridCube | lol | 23:38 |
GridCube | that's fine | 23:38 |
dognose | Thank you | 23:38 |
GridCube | the only stupid question is the one you don't ask | 23:38 |
dognose | I'll change my nick from time to time, as this is just a temporary one | 23:38 |
dognose | haha I agree with linux stuff especially. So much to learn. | 23:38 |
Unit193 | Though keep in mind our answeres might be biased, many of us have strong feelings about GNOME. :) | 23:38 |
GridCube | <.< | 23:38 |
GridCube | >.> | 23:38 |
GridCube | i tried gnome3 the other day | 23:39 |
GridCube | almost screamed my head off | 23:39 |
GridCube | what a horrible horrible desktop paradigm | 23:39 |
dognose | Are they trying to be innovative? | 23:39 |
dognose | Like Apple? | 23:39 |
GridCube | no idea | 23:40 |
Unit193 | Last I knew they were trying to create an interface that worked everywhere, mobile, desktop, etc. So, it works nowhere well. :P | 23:40 |
dognose | lol | 23:40 |
GridCube | yeah that's the feel i got when i was using it | 23:41 |
GridCube | it was like "this is a touchscreen interface" | 23:41 |
GridCube | like windows 8 | 23:41 |
GridCube | oh wait it wasn't gnome3, it was gnome 40 | 23:42 |
dognose | gross | 23:43 |
dognose | Windows 8 was horrid | 23:43 |
GridCube | yeah, seems like the gnome devs went "oh yeah windows 8, lets do that" | 23:45 |
dognose | so unlike Apple and more like Microsoft lol | 23:45 |
dognose | I hope they can find a really intuitive desktop environment that pleases all crowds simultaneously | 23:46 |
