Hey all,
My project is to set my ubuntu up as a command prompt based system. I want to accomplish my tasks via the prompt and emacs. So is installed ubuntu server. This worked well except i need windowing to work for a few programs, like gedit, pidgin and a couple of others. My ubuntu server wouldnt let me use any of this stuff, so I installed gnome and ubuntu desktop. Now i am back to the whole kitchen sink.
So. what do i have to uninstall to get to where i want to be?
Or if its easier what do i install after a fresh install of ubuntu server to get it happening?
BASICALLY JUST NEED BASH + ABLE TO RUN PIDGIN AND FIREFOX :d
also on a bash operated system, how to i open multiple tabs like you can in gnome terminal? its just a huge black screen ... I want to customise in and give it functionality like gnome terminal..
thanks :p
