Gparted is a wonderful piece of software compare to the Partition ‘Tragic’ (if you know which partition software I refer to). After 11 hours of intense resizing and moving blocks and partitions, my previous “frankenstein” hdd became a proper-planned hdd.
After a week of revamp my sluggish gnome into an xfce4 one, I decide to switch completely to Xubuntu – speed, light, efficient, compositing (>metacity one), edge window workspace switching, etc. Having xfce4 inside Ubuntu Gnome was a pain since I am not install the whole xubuntu-desktop. Disabling window manager, panel, desktop and replace with the new one was trully a troublesome task. Unless you request a guide, otherwise I won’t get into the trouble of redoing everystep of it. Moreover, after a recent update on my Ubuntu, i lost my whole local bin folder!!! All my scripts gone =.=”. Pissed!
Man, and you will wonder what the folk for Ubuntu doing when they just dump everything from the Ubuntu desktop to Xubuntu desktop. Regardless of desktop, your mixer will always be muted at start due to pulseaudio problem. Xubuntu desktop doens’t use pulseaudio yet ‘/usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf’ hook first function load is pulse.conf. =.=”
Can’t get any work done (oh wait, I am internship-less this summer) cos drooling over my lean Xubuntu desktop.
Wow 11 hours running Gparted that’s patience. I was freaking after 45 minutes that something had gone wrong.
