Yassss master
My favorite Linux distribution is elementary OS
Remember me?
Try elementary os! 😃😃
Technically, not a DE but I love i3
You didn't have to use the main ubuntu version with the GNOME desktop (which won't run on older hardware well), you could have chosen something lighter (like Lubuntu or Xubuntu).
SheepKid12 Ubuntu mate also isnt so bad too
Running on skylake i7 mobile with Intel hd520 Ubuntu gnome runs like crap on that. I don't know what's up with gnome but it turns everything into jar of peanut butter.
KDE runs better then gnome for some reason
You did not need to format that flash drive. It didn't need to be mounted. Etcher detected it right after you popped it in.
4:19 I swear I love the GNOME 3.x logon animation as it very much reminds me of the Mac OS 10.7 and 10.8 logon animation. 10.8 was, in my opinion, the best Mac OS release in terms of visual style.
7:24 Yeah, it's understandable, as the lowercase "e" in the model number indicates it's an education market model, and the x100e series would be something students would get or share, basically. There's even the ThinkPad "Mini 10" that's basically an X100e with a smaller display manufacturered specifically for the NSW (Australia) education department.
8:34 That's a GNOME feature since 3.24 or 3.26, if I'm not mistaken
I can tell you were an early adopter of Mac OS instead of Windows, which is a rare breed of people as it is. Then you say you work for the government 10 stories underground. What are you, Steve Jobs' son or something?
Krazy Ken doesn’t work for the government. He (for lack of a better word) is in "quarantine".
@@ComputerClan this aged well
Daniel Catton oh dang!
@@AJersy WUT?
favorite DE is Openbox as standalone, no panel, no titlebars, only thin 1-2px borders around windows, keyboard shortcuts for moving and snapping around, closing and maximizing, and alt-leftdrag for moving windows around and alt-rightdrag for resizing them. Been using that setup for over a year and love it.
Why did I watch all those other Ubuntu 18.XX videos when I could've watched this one?
Homerun! =)
My fave DE was Unity, for sure. Probably because I’m a longtime Mac user and it felt most familiar to me.
You got me hooked on Amazing World of Gumball, thanks alot LOL
You’re welcome. ; )
6:18 Probably a GNOME thing.
GNOME's is a bit resource heavy, but probably also the thinkpad
:O You are the developer that develops Feren OS!
Hey a familiar face! (Mooskii here)
you didn't mention that snaps update without telling you so if your software breaks from an update you wont even notice that it was from the update
btw i use arch
sudo pacman -Syu
Re: the Desktop Environment question, I have a soft spot for XFCE.
3:34 A Sports, Its in the game!
I would try on that Thinkpad Linux Mint, Lubuntu or Bodhi Linux.
Also Ubuntu Budgie is great, I'm using it everyday :D
that Mac Mini running 10.8 brings me back to what the Aqua UI compared to the new flat and glassy look today!
I am still rocking ubuntu 16.04
20:14 this aged GREAT
I feel obligated to point out that you don't need a drive to be mounted to flash it with etcher (and by extension don't have to erase the drive first).
As long as the drive shows up instead of "select drive" it will flash. Regardless of what partitions/filesystems are on it, they're just going to be overwritten when you flash the image anyway.
New icons, cursor designs and bright colors make everything work better.
Alright Ken keep up with Ubuntu. Time to review 20.04!
I actually downloaded all 20, yes ALL 20 of the CC wallpapers and they are very sexy
Every one has a blind spot, but
CUDDLEFISH ???
That's a new one.
Ken: Bow Down Before Me, you plebians
Me: You mean Debian
I have that model of Mini....Late 2012....Made it a bunch faster with outboard USB 3.0 Samsung SSD as the MacHD. Works so much better than the built in pokey HDD. Only problem is Mojave won't run in that config (for me, at least) becaue APFS format won't boot. So I'm now legacy'd on High Sierra.
That Red dot on keyboard is a "trackpad" you can use it to move coursor.
A few linux native games you might be interested in trying (if you haven't already heard of them) are Sauerbraten and Tremulous. I found out about them from Druaga1's channel.
My favorite Linux desktop environment is XFCE.
Same. I've been using Xubuntu since version 8.10
Xfce4 is my favorite one too
and my favorite is Unity :}
Little late, but I often experience two EFI boot volumes showing up when trying to boot into the Ubuntu installer on my MSI laptop as well.
Other: Samsung DeX (based off of Samsung Experience, which is based on Android, which has a Linux kernel.) Does that count?
Close enough.
On the poll: My preferred environment is Zorin OS’s default environment because it looks like Windows 10.
I think the environment is a mix of Xfce and GNOME.
How to activate minimize to dock
1. Download Dconf editor from the Software Editor
2. Search for click-action
3. Disable Use the default value
4. Change focus or previews to minimize
5. Click ✅
6. Close dconf editor
It will work on
Ubuntu 16.04
Ubuntu 16.10
Ubuntu 18.04
Ubuntu 18.10
Ubuntu 20.04.1
Ubuntu 20.10 Beta Release
AMD A4 graphics won't run Gnome too well, as it's a bit heavy. I have an R9 270x and a *few* animations are still slow. I love Gnome, but it's not optimised graphics-wise, sadly. That aside, installing MATE (and running with "accelerated" settings but not compiz) would do an A4 wonders :)
Edit: Also, for what it's worth, I'm hoping to use an AMD APU (either A10-series or Ryzen w/ integrated graphics) for a Home Theatre PC in the future, so yeah :)
I'm installing Ubuntu 18.10 in a VM RIGHT NOW as the video plays in the background!
You installed the desktop version of Ubuntu 18.10 Cosmic Cuttlefish
probably should've ticked the install drivers box when installing on the lenovo thinkpad...
GNOME don't perform so well on older computers :/
I’m certainly noticing that. Haha.
Had the same problem with a intel Q45 video chip using Gnome3, but when i installed the older unity desktop that uses Compiz all that Lag-ness went away.
@@MrMassivemanmeat Yeah !
@@ComputerClan gnome doesn't perform so well :/
For me it wont perform well on a 2016 computer
Just one day after this upload I have done installing it on my USB hard drive and experienced such a GREAT looking
The Yaru community theme looks fantastic, faster startup time, new kernel,... but except for a horrible system animations FRAME DROPPING (as Ken said "2 FPS" at 11:54, but it is lower than 18.04 ON ANY HARDWARE)
If you install GNOME Tweaks, you can disable the animations. I did that on my Surface Pro 2 to make it feel more snappy (though it isn't slow to begin with).
Alternatively, you could install a different Desktop Environment for a different experience
Just to clarify about the poll, it is KDE plasma, not just KDE
I suppose now that would be the case, since KDE branched out into more products about 9 years ago. I think, originally, the desktop environment was just named KDE (insert version number here).
There’s merit to what you say. I should’ve been more specific.
You should try Fedora Workstation. It is a distro with vanilla GNOME.
15:09 I cracked my finger at the exact same time LOL
I voted other, my pick: Unity 7.
Cloud Ready would be great for that Lenovo that was shown at the beginning of the video!
Bro you can just disable the animations using the Tweak tool, GNOME 3.30 is not for old hardware this should be clear, but i think disabling the animations should give an additional boost.
Last term me and someone reset all the user setting that my school IT put on our school computers and we managed to install steam and play games in a school computer and run windows in a vm but after the break we came back and the computer we used was running bionic beaver 18.4 which none of them where running
Because the activation part even windows 10 told you that but the only issue is you have to know the precise version of Windows 10 that they had on it before
Did he have a stroke
on the lenovo you shouldn't use a gnome distro. Gnome is quite a resource hog compared to other desktop environments.
Mac OS 9 On Thinkpad Inside Ubuntu Please!!
Boi
idk, but at this point linux mint is more compatible than ubuntu itself lol
TheA_Gamer554 your right or xfve
New Ubuntu suck's on my Kabini Graphic
It depends on the hardware, some i cant even boot mint propperlly, some i cant ubuntu.
Mint isnt just a visual change for ubuntu, but it actually has some differences in the system itself.
TheA_Gamer554 yes
@Evehz I wouldnt say garbage.
But i must say usuallt ubuntu at least its a bit buggy.
I found out opensuse to be rock solid, and switched to it.
If you snap a window to the left and another window to the right, when you resize one, the other window automatically gets resized, too. I think that feature has existed since 17.10.
I had a 2008 Thinkpad W500 running 18.04 64-bit with no problems. Off of... USB 2.0. Live boot AND an actual install on the USB.
It had a Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz (T9400??), 4 GB DDR2 RAM and a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 512 MB dedicated graphics. And it was 64-bit.
Windows was problematic on it actually, like bluescreens, DVD drive not working right, bad boot times and performance. Though it did have bad overheating issues and was running 7 instead of what it came with, Vista. Still shouldn’t be that problematic.
Ubuntu had good performance, my DVD drive worked again, and it played 1440p on RUclips just fine (Though I think the screen was 720p or 1080p, unsure of which of the two), and video edited 720p and 1080p just fine, and 4K, ableit very choppy. though I did lose sleep mode but no big deal, probably the hardware not supporting ACPI that was needed.
This is me assuming 18.04 isnt too different from 18.10, but sadly I do not have that laptop to test 18.10 anymore.
So no idea why it didn’t work on the newer Lenovo you used well.
Hey Ken could you do a video on how you got your Mac to look the way it is? Like icon size, how much space is on your drive on the desktop, the dock.
the clunkiness is probably a problem of Wayland. try switching to xorg and see
u don't need to have the drive mounted or formatted for etcher to detect it
In the UK version of Ubuntu, the "Trash" icon is called the "Rubbish Bin".
I love it.
Ubuntu got really worse. Before people complained how unity was heavy, and that i got even havier, but you actually could use it even on atom netbook, kinda slow but usable. Now with gnome, even the newer second and third gen core i3 and i5's, it suffers REALLY badly.
Gnome usually is really a resource hog, but that canonical gnome is even worse.
Better off getting a lighter version such as xubuntu, ubuntu mate, even kubuntu is lighter.
The new theme needs the old desktop icons back, the old cursor, and the ubuntu logo instead of the grid icon.. apart from that the theme is really pretty!
Another recommendation when it comes to the Thinkpad, try finding AMD driver stacks you might use in place of the built-in Ubuntu ones. Also, for the desktop environment, I totally recommend Trinity DE. Lightweight and almost 100% like Windows.
My favourites either xfce or lubuntu's environment.The new version of gnome does look nice tho.
You should install Manjaro. It's based on Arch, but it's as esasy to set up and get running as Ubnutu! :)
the snappy window to the edge of the screen thing started from KDE, i believe
Thanks, this sorta helped me to get a dual boot of ubuntu on my 2008 iMac with El Capitan
XFCE when gaming and general use. i3-gaps if I'm working on a dev project.
1:50 where's your dongle?
Anyone know which wallpaper Ken uses on his macbook here? Or does anyone have a link?
It's a photo I shot. It's on the Computer Clan gallery : ) - thecomputerclan.com/wallpapers.html
Enjoy!
apt-get and apt are almost same command but apt has some more features i recommand to use apt
Also always use apt update to update list before installing any software in apt or updating in apt
Can the ram be upgraded on the Lenovo Thinkpad. if it can then it might run smoother with upgraded ram.
I think that if there is some unalocated space on the disk, it will just give you the option to install it and create the partitions itself.
Could have showed how looks that ubuntu budgie themes thing and what's difference
You’ll see it in a future episode ; )
my favourite DE is XFCE, even though i usually go with Awesome WM
I had my magic mouse beside me the entire video
Great... And now? Want a cookie?
install LFS or gentoo on one of those thinkpads. See how long it would takes
The real r/softwaregore 0:09
Ubuntu 18.10 does not need a separate swap partition.
My favroite desktop enviroment is Ubuntu
Anyone know what the name of the intro theme is?
Do a installation sensation of pop!_os 21.04 with cosmic desktop
I prefer Linux Mint over Ubuntu. Because Mint looks like good. And the best part : Mint is based on Ubuntu. And Mint only releases with Ubuntu's newest LTS releases.
Ubuntu 18.10 runs find on my amd a6 5200 apu with Radeon hd 8400 graphics (which is also kabini, I installed Ubuntu onto the system because windows 10 is too slow and heavy for if)
Ken has Gone Home
Life is a little bit better now
Life is always gonna be the same. You get born and you die. So fitting that you said "now"
@@appleleptiker You okay?
@@shantih19 More or less. I can't even remember typing that comment.
@@appleleptiker I'm sorry to hear that, I hope things get better for you
KRAZY Ken did not died yay
My favourite desktop environment is lxqt! (Maybe you'll be using it in the near future ;) )
If you want to make Arch easier, you can try Manjaro
Antergos is basically Arch with an installer (and some minor configuration tweaks here and there).
Manjaro is more of its own thing that's based on Arch.
But is there a point of testing Arch if you skip the installation process? Desktop Environments are (mostly) the same for most of Linux distros and all the underlaying elements that do differ are hard to review without going deep or spending much time on them. Fedora has a pretty unorthodox installer too. Haiku OS (finally in Beta now) review would be fun if it boots and runs on real hardware.
Hello! Crazy Ken. You should try Manjaro Linux.
XFCE is a nice and comfy DE
ok....
this was Hilarous!!
10:50 DONT BE SHY USE SOME MORE USE SONE MORE DONT BE SHY
Ubuntu MATE would perform better. GNOME drags a lot on old laptops, it needs correct driver installed and gpu capable of rendering the things.
What is the worst OS you know so far?
Hannah Montana OS I imagine
Before the dot update, probably HS. After the update, Hannah Montana
Windows
Well windows 10
FreeBSD
I’m 12 and have 7 computers and 4 monitors. How sad am I?
apt > apt-get.
Change my mind.
You should do an episode on elementary OS Juno :)
None of the animations are new! They are from the normal GNOME 3 desktop
I never said all of it was new : p
@@ComputerClan True :D
You should do CloudReady
Did you see the little teaser in this episode? ; )
I'm an Arch requester too!
11:08 no connection?
I modified BootCamp for imaging.
I would use the unity desktop. 16.04 forever
Yaru theme sounds like an anime-ish theme
24:00 - Definitely Not Self Promotion... definitely not 😂👍
