  • They said they are removing synaptic from Ubuntu in 11.10 , and that is just DUMB.

    They said after Ubuntu switched to Unity that lots of Ubuntu users moved to Linux Mint, and now Linux Mint is becoming the most popular Linux distribution.

  • @maw88ify: yeah, but I'm sure it will still be in the repose. It's funny. I've never been a fan of Ubuntu, but I find myself sticking up for them lately. Everyone is just complaining about all the changes they are making. I think it's great that they are making an effort to move forward. And although we may not like all their choices, it doesn't really matter. As long as it's OpenSource, we can change what we don't like.

  • @maw88ify:

    P.S. I thought it was DUMB when they removed aptitude and ctrl+alt+backspace, but those features like everything else are still there, just not by default.

  • @metalx1000 I agree. This is off topic but have you tried Parcellite it is a cool clipboard manager like the Jumpcut app on Mac . I use Parcellite in Linux now , and it's great tool if you cut and paste text a lot. I use it for coping codes when writing script.

  • @maw88ify: I have not tried Parcellite. I have used clipman and one other that is simular (I can't remember the name). I liked them a lot, but one of them crash on startup a lot so I stopped using it. I'll look in to Parcellite.

  • wich one is faster? debian or linux mint?

  • @GenoSkill: Debian can be. With Debian you choose what you want to install as you go. Mint/Ubuntu try to be out of the box solutions. This is great for getting a system setup fast, but the system will most likely have a bunch of processes running and things installed that you don't need.

    So, Debian will run smoother if you take the time ti set it up and you know what you need and what you don't. If you install Debian and install all the same things as Mint, they will be about the same.

  • Haha, I just went looking for a tutorial video on Synaptic so I could send it to some one. I had completely forgot that I made this video.

  • hey man what is the name of the linux os that u are using in this video

  • @corpes870: I don't even remember making this video :)

    That was my wifes computer. At the time she was most likely running Debian. Currently we are both running Linux Mint, which is based on Debian/Ubuntu, but has a lot of stuff setup out of the box that neither Debian or Ubuntu does (Flash, Java, codecs, etc...).
