Ubuntu --> Ubuntu Studio

[denbeigh2000]

Hi, I want to switch to Ubuntu Studio, but I can't seem to do it normally...


denbeigh@jason:~$ sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop

Does anybody have any tips?

Cheers,

It should be fine Denbeigh, ubuntu-desktop doesn't actually contain anything, but is just a metapackage to easy upgrades, I believe it is supposed to conflict with ubuntustudio-desktop.

Cheers Jack, I'm on Level 3 right now... But the proxy won't authenticate with the school network outside firefox... *sadface*

Shall do it when I get home.

Thanks for the support :)

Hmm... That didn't work either.

To anyone else reading this and horribly confused, Denbeigh and I go to the same school.

Denbeigh, it looks like there might be some other conflicts. Find me at school and bring your laptop and I'll fix it up there. Also, you need to apt-get install ntlmaps to use the school's proxy with apt-get and other things that don't support the NTLM authentication used on the school proxy.
