Greetings to all readers of FromLinux. I am writing this post to tell you that in the next 2 weeks I will be somewhat absent from the blog, it is not really due to vacation, or because I have a health problem or anything similar.
The main reason is that I have a new job and I have less time to be here among you. I hope that as time progresses and I adjust to the new schedule, I will find a way to stay as active as before, and I will try to write everything I can in the evening to publish it the next day. However, we still have the active participation of perseus, nano and the rest of the excellent contributors to our site.
As a novelty, I tell you that in that job they assigned me a Netbook (HP Mini), from which I am writing now and which I have running with Xubuntu 12.04. As I explained to you, I have very little time and I don't have much experience with this type of device, so I cannot experiment with my Debian trying to find all the necessary packages to make it work 100%.
I thought about installing LMDE Xfce, but sadly as we know, Xfce 4.10 is still a long way from entering Testing, and now for Xubuntu we have a PPA that works perfectly. Also, the trackpad does not work as it should, and although the solution may be easy, I need everything to work the first time. And that's how things are.
With this processor (Intel Atom) Xubuntu it behaves quite well, although it suffers a bit when I'm copying a lot of data. The netbook has 1GB of RAM and the performance is more than acceptable, since the consumption does not exceed 250MB using basic applications. But nothing, returning to the subject, I hope to be among you again as soon as possible, and since I do not know if that will be viable in the short term, I write this post, so you know in case I am absent for a long time.
Thanks for staying with us.
