| 11:41.20 | jetscreamer | but dselect resolves dependencies when the others won't |
| 11:41.39 | jetscreamer | so older is better in this case imo ymmv |
| 11:41.41 | sweet_kate | like aptitude |
| 11:42.05 | jetscreamer | i had a bad experience with aptitude when it first came into debian so i shy away |
| 11:42.19 | jetscreamer | i'm sure it' smuch better now |
| 11:42.49 | jetscreamer | but dselect has resolved unmet dependencies that even aptitude couldn't, nor apt-get -f |
| 11:43.10 | jetscreamer | however, it's a big fugly mess in the selection screen] |
| 11:43.27 | jetscreamer | dpkg dselect |
| 11:43.27 | dpkg | extra, extra, read all about it, dselect is a wonderful UI for package management. or really more powerful than apt-get or the only thing that provides FULL data when making decisions on whether to install a package. most people should not hate dselect but some seem to have been told to. just read the help screens, or <Ozzie> is there a dselect howto? - Yes there is: http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/dselect-beginner Also ask me about ... |
| 11:43.27 | sweet_kate | i use ubuntu |
| 11:43.28 | sweet_kate | u? |
| 11:43.36 | jetscreamer | dpkg fix-unmet |
| 11:43.37 | dpkg | well, fix-unmet is run dselect --expert. hit the down arrow once. then hit enter a lot. problem solved. (if the packages are available and/or scripts not borked), or eg, basically, don't edit sources, don't select anything, just go to option 2 and hit enter a lot |
| 11:43.43 | jetscreamer | debian |
| 11:44.16 | jetscreamer | i got the breezy(iirc) live dvd to boot when it was broken in testing though |
| 11:44.26 | sweet_kate | ok |
| 11:44.32 | sweet_kate | debina for a desktop?? |
| 11:44.51 | jetscreamer | i use icewm for a desktop, mostly |
| 11:46.15 | buzzy | what WM's u tried? |
| 11:46.51 | jetscreamer | most of the more popular ones |
| 11:47.01 | buzzy | xfce4? |
| 11:48.03 | jetscreamer | actually i tried that one probably a year ago, so anything i'd have to say would be outdated :) |
| 11:48.24 | jetscreamer | many ppl like it though |
| 11:48.41 | jetscreamer | and i've not heard bad things about it |
| 11:48.53 | jetscreamer | and you do if you hang in irc long enough :) |
| 11:49.07 | buzzy | what 'd u suggest to use to a person with slow pc? |
| 11:49.20 | jetscreamer | xfce4 or icewm or *.box |
| 11:49.27 | jetscreamer | fluxbox, blackbox...others |
| 11:49.51 | jetscreamer | not gnome or kde basically |
| 11:50.20 | buzzy | ok |

| 11:50.28 | jetscreamer | ubotu: find pygtk |
| 11:50.35 | jetscreamer | buzzy: the one you like best |

| 11:51.01 | jetscreamer | icewm is more windows-y |
| 11:51.04 | jetscreamer | imo |
| 11:51.32 | buzzy | windows-y=?? |
| 11:51.43 | buzzy | what does y stand for? |
