yeah, guess so..funny it's getting annoying already

either change to other distro or revert back to 10.04 :/

Unnecessary step backward if you can get more satisfaction by installing Julia

Time to ditch Ubuntu

yeah, soon

also, anyone know how to clean up unused files that being used to compile the kernel? It's taking up a lot spaces.. and it's unused now so how do i removed it already

i just use ubuntu tweak...

yeah, kinda...things going to break alot if customise bit

Okay, enough!!
Ubuntu does cater to the new/non-savvy user, but power-users can do just as much with Ubuntu as they can with any other distro. I'm talking about REAL power-uesers here, ie; people that run server farms, workstations, highly powerful computers that calculate all sorts of stuff you and I can't even comprehend... not some guy testing out kernels or GUI themes for his home desktop for his own masturbatory purposes.

What Ubuntu may not be able to do is be a completely modular distro like Arch or Gentoo, where they build everything from scratch, set flags, etc, but that sector only caters to s specific section of the linuxsphere.

Saying it's for noobs is one thing, but saying it sucks just because it does what it sets out to do, while still catering to corporate and scientific sectors (you know, the people/companies that actually pay for the support) just shows utter juvenile ignorance.

I currently use Debian, Arch and Free-BSD on my various systems, and I started Linux way before Ubuntu was even started, but do you see me going around bashing Ubuntu with childish oversized bold fonts and bad English?

Exercise courtesy, please. You all talk about Linux needing more users, and here you are bashing the very distro that has the biggest chance of introducing people to Linux (either through it's noob-friendliness or it's marketing). You might not realize this, but a large percentage of your distro's user base (whether Fedora, Arch, Mint, Debian...whatever) probably got their first taste of Linux via Ubuntu.

Now, I can't help with some Ubuntu specific problems since I've never used Ubuntu seriously before, but chances are, if it can be done with other distros, it can be done with Ubuntu as well (partly thanks to it's Debian roots, and partly thanks to everything in upstream being universal to most/all distributions). You just need to ask the right kind of questions at the right places, and if that geniunely doesn't work, you let the devs know (seriously, have your ever filed a bug-report?)

If you're so butthurt in life, there are many other things you can point your anger at.... Microsoft, Sony, Apple, Robert Mugabe, former/current Malaysian politicians, fat pornstars, K-pop, bad ISPs, moe-anime, ah beng techno, Scandinavian turbo-folk, MTV .... take your pick.

Lol, I'm just kidding. I'm bored, happy and sad, it's the last day of 2011 and I need to get out everything which isn't necessary from my head(yes, including the Ubuntu rant) because I'm having PMR next year(YAY!).

Happy new year 2011 to all my penguin and devil friends here, and tomorrow is my birthday. This evening I am going to reinstall again my LMDE to it's new hd.

hoyaaaa!

It's not 2011 yet. And happy birthday.

Thanks for the wish, and the same goes to you for yr coming PMR. My eldest son just took his result, not too god but not too poor

You have children?! Oh, and congratz for your son's result.

seems having some problem with the music player in linux mint julia today

- amarok refused to play any files from my ntfs, but other players like rhythmbox can play it fine.
- rhythmbox is nice, but doesn't have equalizer
- exaile is ignoring my equalizer settings
- and somehow gstreamer is missing, time to find the dependencies

question, linux mint julia using pulseaudio or alsa? Since it seems it have both installed

This post has been edited by GameSky: Dec 31 2010, 05:02 PM

Check your audio daemon, if you're using pulseaudio you can install pulseaudio-equalizer. ALSA have the same thing too if I'm not mistaken.

open gstreamer-properties and select whether you wan to use alsa or pulseaudio.
for pulseaudio u can install pulseaudio-qualizer from repo like -hzu- posted.

for alsa u can use alsaequal
http://www.thedigitalmachine.net/alsaequal.html

setting up alsa can be pain in the ass if u messed up your pulseaudio setting before in ubuntu.

going to purge the alsa/pulse and recompile it after this

wanna ask some noob question...just to confirm..

how much partition to install ubuntu??home and??

Just make one partition, like 60GB(recommended), and the install script will do the rest.
