Jim` | the ISO finally done | 01:55 |

prosurestring | added r | 02:35 |
Jim` | arraybolt3 , Unit193: So I installed hplib and it worked | 03:42 |
Jim` | For a printer | 03:42 |
Jim` | arraybolt3 , Unit193: I had to install "xsane" for it to work in GIMP as a scanner though? | 03:43 |
Jim` | is that normal? | 03:43 |
Unit193 | \o/ | 03:44 |
Jim` | Unit193: also I remembered I like LXDE better now lol | 03:45 |
Jim` | so I'd be installing Lubuntu instead | 03:45 |
Jim` | but anyway | 03:45 |
arraybolt3 | Jim`: Lubuntu switched to LXQt so it probably will be significantly different than you remembered. | 03:58 |
arraybolt3 | XFCE is probably closer to LXDE than LXQt is now. | 03:58 |
arraybolt3 | (As a Lubuntu developer, I won't tell you to *not* use it, but you should probably know before you go and try it :P) | 03:58 |
Jim` | arraybolt3: I just want close to Windows as possible without KDE | 03:59 |
Jim` | or the "LOL YOU BROKE SUCKER! YOU SHOULD HAVE UPGRADED YOUR HARDWARE BEFORE 2025 !!!" | 04:00 |
arraybolt3 | Xubuntu is probably going to be a lot more like Windows than modern Lubuntu. Modern Lubuntu is great, but it's more like classic Windows, whereas with some work XFCE can be made to be more like Windows 7 or 10. | 04:00 |
arraybolt3 | And hey, I have a machine here that is too old to run Windows 11 (officially anyway) that gets plenty of use with Linux :D | 04:00 |
Jim` | arraybolt3: Yeah why I gotta upgrade my FX-8370 and 950 SC | 04:02 |
Jim` | I'll have to to play GTA6 | 04:02 |
Jim` | but why can't I make that choice myself | 04:02 |
Unit193 | If that's your thing, look into xfce4-docklike-plugin and xfdashboard too. | 04:15 |
Jim` | Unit193: I don't like the "up top" thing | 04:16 |
Unit193 | Panel can be moved. | 04:16 |
Unit193 | https://docs.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-docklike-plugin/start that's docklike. | 04:17 |
Jim` | Unit193: I'm thinking I should probably be using these "min" GUIs for sure | 04:19 |
Jim` | and not KDE or Ubuntu? | 04:19 |
Unit193 | Up to you what works best for you. | 04:23 |
Jim` | Unit193: I don't want the GUI to be eating up all the VRAM trying to play games on Linux before I can get a new Win machine | 04:24 |

BadQuanta | If I want gcc-14 on my current install of xubuntu is there a good ppa to add? ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test doesn't seem to have gcc-14 yet. | 11:24 |
BadQuanta | Huh... so 24.04 also defaults to gcc-13? | 11:43 |
BadQuanta | Good news. I'm trying out 24.04 in a VM right now; I see it allows me to install gcc-14 from the default repos. Good news. | 11:59 |
