Not that I don't like the Air theme, just that I don't like Lubuntu resembling any other OS. Keep the identity unique. Like the icons, though.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Changing PDF viewer by default
Might we want to consider going to Google Docs for some of these things like PDF, Word Processing, Spreadsheet, and so on? I don't see any good candidates for PDF aside from the ones already mentioned. There simply aren't very many out there, it would seem. Evince would get my vote. Have we a good idea of what the minimum computer requirements should be for Lubuntu? That would help in making some of these decisions. Personally, I don't think there are many people out there with 256K machines anymore. I would expect the low-end machines to be the ones that were mainstream 3-5 years ago.. so figure at least 1 GHz and 1G of memory. But maybe I'm all wet. :) Regards, Bob ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Changing PDF viewer by default
Hi Bob, there are certainly people out there with 256K RAM machines, OPanyone here? ;d Me hoyas Me catching up with emails. Can I help ? OP nah, I just want to tell how happy I am that someone is doing a ubuntu for old computers Me thanks for popping on and saying so. The small team has really pulled something out of the hat with Lubuntu OP keep on great work OP I have tested so many linux distros to work on my old notebook with only 160MB of rma I know from people giving me feed-back on the minimal installation instructions that more people than you may think are totally reliant on lubuntu to let them have an up to date system. In fact, they'd *love* to have 256K RAM ;-) I do know what you mean about some people thinking we are 'under selling' lubuntu, a lot of that may be quite deliberate to keep the maddening hoards from over whelming the small team while they get the various niggles sorted ;-) The general word on lubuntu is good, and it will get better. Slimline, mean and keen - long may it remain that way. Let loonies like me put on LAMP server's and GIMP on to it, they certainly are not required for the vast majority of users. Regards, Phill.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Changing PDF viewer by default
Regarding to hardware, my suggestions to make the system usable: CPU: above 600 MHz should be enough most of the time RAM: 512 mb is suggested, and 256 is minimal requirement Disk space: 2 GB at least (including swap) These values are based on personal experience, not any accurate measurement or benchmarks.
