| crimsun | you should be able to msg the bot, too | 07:49 |
| darthanubis | sorry crimsun | 07:49 |
| darthanubis | I like you always have. | 07:49 |
| darthanubis | Funny to see you in the kde channel when you work on pulse and pulse does not come standrad in kubuntu | 07:49 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: I work on audio, which is DE-independent. | 07:50 |
| darthanubis | ahhh | 07:50 |
| darthanubis | I had the roughest time getting audio to play from two sources at once in kubuntu | 07:51 |
| jussi01 | darthanubis: have you a current issue that needs sorting? | 07:51 |
| crimsun | without pulse, I presume? | 07:51 |
| darthanubis | I added the alsa backports modules package, and the sdl package and I also upgraded alsa to .22 and now it works | 07:52 |
| darthanubis | but I don't know what exaclt was the fix | 07:52 |
| crimsun | I don't think the fix was really involved there. Were you having problems with Adobe Flash (presuming that you use Flash)? | 07:52 |
| darthanubis | I could not repeat the process from a clean install. And I never can get help regarding the matter when it occurs | 07:52 |
| darthanubis | I use flash, but no, there were no issues with that | 07:53 |
| darthanubis | I use 64bit flash from Adobe | 07:53 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: when the issue next occurs, inspect the output from "sudo fuser -v /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/* /dev/seq*" | 07:53 |
| darthanubis | Flash would be playing, then amarok would start and stop flashes sound | 07:53 |
| darthanubis | I'll do that | 07:53 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: if you use a special asoundrc that reroutes pcm.default, that could cause problems. | 07:54 |
| darthanubis | I don't use a .asoundrc although I tried to do that but it did not help at all | 07:54 |
| darthanubis | OSSv4 worked ok, but there was no sound from my front panel and gtk-recordmydesktop would not use it | 07:55 |
| darthanubis | so I went back to alsa | 07:55 |
| crimsun | barring my actually being online when you have that symptom, I can't really do much else | 07:56 |
| crimsun | (and since I'm not employed to work on Ubuntu, that can be problematic) | 07:56 |
| darthanubis | I wonder if ossv4 will ever beccome a viable option in ubuntu. Not default of course, I know we are married to PA, but at least a click or two choice away | 07:56 |
| crimsun | I suppose you could file a(nother) bug | 07:56 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: OSSv4 isn't related to PulseAudio | 07:57 |
| darthanubis | I'm aware of that | 07:57 |
| crimsun | so why mention them in the same breath? | 07:57 |
| darthanubis | I meant ubuntu is committed to PA | 07:57 |
| crimsun | also, Ubuntu isn't going to carry OSSv4 while upstream Linux doesn't | 07:58 |
| darthanubis | Upstream maay change because of the nature of ossv4 licensing | 07:58 |
| darthanubis | and I mention many things in the same breathe. Hopefully the proper punctuation will alleviate any misunderstanding? | 07:59 |
| Tm_T | I hope you can stay on channel topic too (: | 07:59 |
| darthanubis | we were talking sound, and oss and PA are both sound related, | 08:00 |
| darthanubis | Tm_T: who are you talking to? | 08:00 |
| Tm_T | darthanubis: you this time | 08:00 |
| darthanubis | Tm_T: 3am on a DEAD channel and you are topic police? | 08:00 |
| darthanubis | When I'm talking about kubuntu sound, totally topic related | 08:01 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: OSSv4 has had a compatible license for some time | 08:01 |
| darthanubis | and now it has been amened | 08:01 |
| darthanubis | I'm not talking about the past | 08:01 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: it really isn't the license that's at issue; it's 1. technical architecture; 2. maintenance resources | 08:01 |
| darthanubis | I'm talking present and future | 08:01 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: there's no need to argue with me about OSSv4; I'm well aware of its merits and drawbacks | 08:02 |
| Tm_T | darthanubis: crimsun: you can continue licence discussions in -offtopic (: | 08:02 |
| darthanubis | no one is "arguing" with you | 08:02 |
| darthanubis | where did that nonsene come from? | 08:02 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: hmm, you seem to be proposing that OSSv4 be put into Ubuntu | 08:03 |
| darthanubis | I thought it was a discussion | 08:03 |
| darthanubis | I have not proposed anything | 08:03 |
| darthanubis | you've got to be kidding me | 08:03 |
| crimsun | darthanubis: I'm in #kubuntu-offtopic if you want to continue. | 08:03 |

| KARMIC_PS3 | yeah yeah | 11:00 |
| EagleScreen | not all old kernels are removed when updates | 11:01 |
| KARMIC_PS3 | i think faster than i can type | 11:01 |
| KARMIC_PS3 | okay so they should all still be listed as installed after the update than right | 11:02 |
| EagleScreen | in threory, remove of old kernel was a new feature in karmic | 11:03 |
| EagleScreen | but not all of them, always is good to keep ono or two old kernels | 11:03 |
| EagleScreen | i am not usre if that feature was finally implemented | 11:03 |
| KARMIC_PS3 | ok but will it effect my comp negatively to have more than one version will it confuse my sys | 11:04 |
| EagleScreen | no, the single problem may be the disk space wasted by old kernels | 11:05 |

| Peace- | that firefox is not compiled | 12:43 |
| nad | and that is where its runing | 12:43 |
| nad | so what can I do | 12:43 |
| nowth | Peace: the firefox .tar.gz does contain a runnable firefox, no compilation needed | 12:43 |
| Peace- | nowth: oh a binary | 12:43 |
| Peace- | well | 12:43 |
| * Peace- doesn't use firefox.. | 12:44 | |

| Peace- | put that folder where you want and create a launcher | 12:45 |
| Peace- | that's all | 12:45 |
| nowth | nad: I'd do as Peace said and install the firefox package from the repositories, although you can also move the firefox folder to /opt, create a symlink to it in /usr/local/bin, and add it to the k-menu with kmenuedit... | 12:45 |

| JonErik | but I don't want to remove it, in case I need it later | 15:21 |
| Tm_T | JonErik: "sudo update-rc.d -f NetworkManager remove" | 15:22 |
| Tm_T | JonErik: will disable all runtime based initialisations | 15:22 |
| JonErik | Tim_T: I've tried that, but there is no "NetworkManager" in init.d anymore | 15:23 |
| Tm_T | ohm... | 15:23 |
| JonErik | Tm_T: There is a network-manager, though | 15:23 |
| Tm_T | JonErik: that's it then | 15:24 |
| JonErik | It's softlinked to /lib/init/upstart-job | 15:24 |
| Tm_T | oh, right, and I'm not familiar with upstart ): | 15:25 |
| JonErik | Yeah, so /etc/init/* stuff is for upstart it seems | 15:28 |
| Tm_T | JonErik: then "sudo update-rc.d -f network-manager remove" should work? | 15:29 |
| JonErik | Tm_T: I don't think so, upstart apparently starts tasks on its own based on system events. | 15:30 |
| Tm_T | JonErik: wont hurt trying? | 15:30 |
| JonErik | Tm_T: The softlink there is so that you can still treat it as if it were still using the init.d system | 15:31 |
| nowth | network-manager has been converted to an upstart job | 15:31 |
| JonErik | yeah, so how does one disable upstart jobs? | 15:31 |
| nowth | I'm still trying to find out myself, but I suppose it editing the file I mentioned would be one way... | 15:32 |
| JonErik | I've done "chmod 000 network-manager.conf", but I bet that's not the proper way | 15:32 |
| JonErik | Maybe I comment out the "start on" lines? | 15:33 |
| JonErik | That would probably work, but again, I don't know if that's the right way | 15:33 |
| Tm_T | !upstart | 15:33 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 15:33 |
| Tm_T | JonErik: I wonder if there ^ is some relevant information (: | 15:34 |
| JonErik | Yeah, I've been digging through that site | 15:34 |
| Tm_T | that doesn't sound promising =) | 15:34 |
| JonErik | upstart seem snazzy, so they've got to have come up with a specific, snazzy way to disable services | 15:35 |
| nowth | haha | 15:35 |
| JonErik | Some equivalent of chkconfig | 15:36 |
| JonErik | All I'm finding is gritty details and how to create a new service... | 15:36 |
| JonErik | I'm gonig to comment the start lines out and see if that works. | 15:37 |
| JonErik | brb while I try that | 15:38 |
| JonErik | Yeah, that worked. | 15:42 |
| JonErik | Doubt it's the right way, but it's not horrible. | 15:42 |
| JonErik | So, each service in upstart has it's own .conf file. And the .conf files define the event that will cause the service to go up or down or whatever. | 15:43 |
| JonErik | So by not defining any events for it to come up, it won't come up. | 15:43 |
| JonErik | Thanks everyone | 15:43 |
| nowth | thanks for finding out it worked. | 15:44 |
| danang | thx u ubuntu | 15:44 |

| oxymoron | BluesKaj: Would be nice to have one. Sometimes one package break another and would be nice with some kind of chain resetter. SOmetimes the developers break ALSA for instance and would be nice to rollback or in some way reset settings. Or sometimes you want to get default settings if you somehow mess upp with the settings yourself :P | 18:36 |
| === lilian is now known as Rown | ||

| === lilian is now known as Guest83205 | ||
| BluesKaj | oxymoron, I haven't seen alsa broken yet , there are other audio issues/apps that create problems | 18:39 |
| oxymoron | crimsun: Uhm I dont remember exactly, but sometimes the sound goes completely of sync, noise or sometimes it does not even work at all together with PulseAudio and Gstreamer :P Not sure exactly why, but I really love music and get very sad when Linux developers break the sound :P | 18:39 |
| oxymoron | BenPA: :) | 18:40 |
| crimsun | oxymoron: that isn't an ALSA issue | 18:40 |
| crimsun | oxymoron: that's a PA issue, and yes, I know about it. Dear goodness do I know about it. Thankfully, it's nearly all resolved in Lucid. | 18:40 |
| BluesKaj | now comes the test , will my pc reboot into a pure kde environment after all the issues of the lasy few days :P | 18:41 |
| BenPA | good luck | 18:41 |
| oxymoron | crimsun, BluesKaj: Alright, maybe another kind of issue, but still :P WOuld be nice if all audio streamers work flawless and if someone does not work Phonon goes to the next one without breaking anything like it has been doing before. One solution before when Spotify on Wine did not work was to completely remove PulseAudio :P | 18:41 |
| crimsun | oxymoron: yes, that's a problem, and it will have to wait until 10.10 to be resolved. | 18:42 |

| oxymoron | crimsun: I am not in a rush, but why 10.10 and not 8.10 for instance? :P I dont demand to rush, the developers does a great job with everything but the sound should in mi opinion ALWAYS work out of the box no matter what :P I am dependent of the sound. | 18:43 |

| BluesKaj | naftilos76, it's not ubuntu or any linux version specific | 18:47 |
| oxymoron | crimsun: Haha alright, I could imagine :P Isnt it possible to make everything modular and independent then with hybrid protocols. I mean for graphic cards lets say, you make a wrapper which connect thrue ATI or nVIDdia drivers depndning on what card you have or what it support for kind of render, like OpenGL 3.0. WOuld be possible to make transparent protocols so the good hardware, drivers and so on works and if there is some crappy | 18:47 |
| oxymoron | ones people can devlop the drivers themseves :P | 18:48 |
| naftilos76 | BluesKaj - i know , i am just refering to an app for KDE | 18:48 |

| BluesKaj | naftilos76, rea it again , it's not desktop specific either | 18:49 |
| oxymoron | crimsun: If I remember correctly the KDE 4 was completely written from scratch from KDE 3? Would it not be possible to make some kind of hybrid driver wrapper for everything? I still miss support for webcam for instance, even if it really is not an important issue, but still.

| Lynoure | BluesKaj: hmm, is this a known bug in Dragon, then? | 20:33 |
| BluesKaj | dunno, i don't use it | 20:33 |
| oxymoron | EagleScreen: I am not in a hurry though, my patience is greater then ever - Especially when HTC does not work enough fast to port Android 2.1 to their Sense GUI :D | 20:33 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: nVidia NV11 GeForce2 Go | 20:34 |
| oxymoron | ToxinPowe: Hehe :P | 20:34 |
| oxymoron | EagleScreen: What time approximetly does the 4.4 stable goes in public? :P | 20:34 |
| pidusad | i have a capture/uncaputre entry in kmix for extmic. I think my mic used to work before I selected capture on that extmic, unfortunately clicking on it to uncapture doesn't work. does anybody know a work around for it? | 20:35 |
| Flutiju` | Hi, is-it possible to automount a nfs share at boot ? | 20:35 |
| EagleScreen | oxymoron: it could be tomorrow | 20:35 |
| Lynoure | Flutiju`: yes, by putting it in /etc/fstab | 20:36 |
| Flutiju` | Yeah, but it doesn't work | 20:36 |
| Lynoure | Flutiju`: then there is probably something wrong with how it's configured. | 20:36 |
| Flutiju` | Here's the line : 192.168.1.10:/nfs/public /media/STORAGE nfs user,rw,auto 0 0 | 20:36 |
| oxymoron | EagleScreen: Yeah I expect it to release 9 february xD I mean, which time during the ninth? :P | 20:36 |
| Flutiju` | And if I do mount /media/STORAGE manually after startup, it works, so I guess yhe line is OK | 20:37 |
| pidusad | another simpler question is...is what application should I use to check my mic, other than skype, which obviously is a lousy means of checking whether your mic is working or not. | 20:38 |
| nad | what is the best download manager for ubuntu | 20:39 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, are you sure ? run lspci | grep VGA in the terminal. There doesn't seem to be an available driver for the one you posted | 20:39 |
| Lynoure | Flutiju`: the difference is probably in the user who does the mounting | 20:40 |
| Lynoure | Flutiju`: you when you call it, root in auto. | 20:40 |
| Flutiju` | Hmmm good call, i'll try to remove 'user' | 20:40 |
| oxymoron | nad: Define download manager? :P | 20:41 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: that's what I show | 20:41 |
| === six is now known as six6 | ||
| oxymoron | Btw, does anyone miss the old Adept Frontend like I do? :P I dont like the GUI that KPackageKit uses now, its not working smoothly or comfortable as before. | 20:42 |
| nad | some thing that would enable me to pause | 20:43 |
| nad | downloads | 20:43 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: could there be a setting or something I need to adjust under NVIDIA X server settings? | 20:43 |
| nad | download vidoes | 20:43 |
| nad | btw is there any one here who uses blender | 20:44 |
| Flutiju` | Lynoure : same problem :( | 20:45 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, let's try updating again , ctrl+alt+f1 or f2 , then login, sudo aptitude update | 20:46 |
| nad | my windows is still the best after all | 20:46 |
| oxymoron | nad: Kget? :P Or Firefox? xD | 20:47 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: I note under Graphics Card info the setting are as follows: Graphics Processor-GeForce2 Go .. VBIOS Version-03.11.01.52.a8 .. Memory-16 MB .. Bus Type-AGP 4X .. Bus ID-1:0:0 IRQ-10 X Screens Screen 0 .. Display Devices-Nvidia Default Flat Panel (DFP-0) | 20:47 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok one sec | 20:48 |
| SeicherlBoB | is there a way to "ping" a sambaserver? I'd like to check if it is available (from outside the network). I need a CLI program for that, because i'd like to make a script using that information. I tried telnet, but telnet hangs if i try to connect to a closed port and i can't set a timeout. Any ideas? | 20:48 |
| Lynoure | Flutiju`: I mostly came here to get my own problem sorted, but if you are not yet familiar with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo , take a look there. I personally dislike NFS... | 20:49 |
| === Rav3nSw0rd is now known as Nev3rM0re | ||
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok done | 20:49 |
| Flutiju` | Mount at startup | 20:50 |
| Flutiju` | NFS mounts can either be automatically mounted when accessed using autofs or can be setup with static mounts using entries in /etc/fstab. | 20:50 |
| Flutiju` | Lynoure : Ok, so it's not possible using fstab… thank you | 20:51 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, maybe we could try to install a more recent driver ,first stop X , sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop, then, sudo aptitude install nvidia-current | 20:51 |
| Lynoure | Flutiju`: hmm, not possible? | 20:51 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok one sec | 20:52 |

| === Nev3rM0re is now known as Rav3nSw0rd | ||
| Lynoure | Flutiju`: I've seen it done, so unless your setup is somehow exotic... " can be setup with static mounts using entries in /etc/fstab" | 20:52 |
| Flutiju` | Yes, i'll do a tiny script in Autostart I guess | 20:54 |
| nad | has any one installed google chrome yet | 20:54 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: I stopped kdm but got no prompt | 20:54 |
| Lynoure | Flutiju`: if that feels easier for you. | 20:54 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, looks like you have no driver installed, rebooting and installing the nvidi=-glx-185 driver might be in order | 20:58 |
| SeicherlBoB | ok... found it: nmblookup -A 85.126.76.17 | grep -c "No reply" | 20:58 |
| BluesKaj | er nvidia-glx-185 | 20:58 |
| === nozes is now known as nozes2 | ||
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok I see 180 but not 185 | 21:02 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, ok either one should work | 21:02 |
| BluesKaj | 180 it is then | 21:03 |

| === jakub is now known as Guest44731 | ||
| BenPA | BluesKaj: once it's done is there anything else I need to do? | 21:09 |
| BluesKaj | yes BenPA , do sudo nvidia-xconfig | 21:10 |
| BluesKaj | then reboot and pray :) | 21:11 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: lol I'm already having problems ... hold a sec | 21:11 |
| BluesKaj | sudo reboot | 21:11 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok one sec | 21:12 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: wierd | 21:20 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, i don't like weird, what's happening? | 21:22 |
| === Rav3nSw0rd is now known as Nev3rM0re | ||
| BenPA | BluesKaj: it goes into a low graphics mode | 21:22 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: then ask how I want to reconfigure my display | 21:22 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: use default ... new config ... or use backup | 21:23 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: use default (generic)... new config ... or use backup | 21:23 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, new config , it might not work tho | 21:23 |
| BluesKaj | I had the same problem, after reboot it was fine | 21:24 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok one sec | 21:24 |
| KDesk | someone knows when Qt 4.6.1 will be available in the ppa for Karmic? | 21:25 |

| BenPA | BluesKaj: I used the backup | 21:29 |
| pangeran | miglo: $HOME/.kde/share/wallpapers | 21:30 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, let's hope the bsckup works | 21:31 |
| miglo | pangeran: this 'wallpapers' directory is not existing in my case. I'm looking for the default wallpapers. | 21:31 |
| tsimpson | have a look in /usr/share/wallpapers/ | 21:32 |
| miglo | thanks :) | 21:34 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: It did before we tried the new config | 21:34 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, let's try this if you have the patience for another go-round at the tty prompt, i was advised that the nvidia-nouveau driver will work | 21:34 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: sure I do | 21:35 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, do you have a desktop , were you able to login? | 21:36 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: hold on a sec | 21:42 |

| KARMIC_PS3 | anyone know of a messenger able to do yahoo messaging | 22:05 |

| BenPA | :( | 22:06 |
| KARMIC_PS3 | what kinda sys you running | 22:06 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: wait | 22:08 |
| KARMIC_PS3 | i have tried sim-im but it fails to connect to network | 22:08 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: I got desktop back | 22:09 |
| KARMIC_PS3 | good | 22:09 |
| BluesKaj | ok BenPA open your package manager and check search with nvidia for the installed driver | 22:10 |
| BluesKaj | we need to knwo which one | 22:11 |
| BluesKaj | it will probly look like nvidia-glx-180 or some such | 22:14 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: wait | 22:16 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, in the terminal, nvidia-settings | 22:27 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok 1 sec trying to get desktop back | 22:28 |

| BenPA | BluesKaj: wait I got it back | 22:33 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok what do you want to know | 22:35 |
| BluesKaj | open a terminal , nvidia-settings | 22:36 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: I did | 22:36 |
| BluesKaj | and? | 22:36 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: It shows a very sparse settings screen with one configuration | 22:37 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: should I say "save current configuration"? | 22:39 |
| BluesKaj | do an update | 22:39 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: when I did that last time it started doing the 180 ... is that correct and should I use aptitude or can I use apt-get or smart? | 22:40 |
| Crystufer | So I just installed kubuntu and it won't boot because there is no menu.lst | 22:41 |
| Crystufer | Ideas? | 22:42 |
| BluesKaj | apt-get is fine , but if you see it installing the 180, after it finishes , sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-180, then sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-96 | 22:43 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok one sec | 22:43 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: it says glx-96 is already installed | 22:46 |
| BluesKaj | ok, BenPA , so your update didn't install any nvidia ? , if not a nvidi-xconfig in the terminal just tobe sure X is updated | 22:53 |
| BluesKaj | err nvidia-xconfig | 22:54 |
| BluesKaj | I mean Xorg.conf is updated | 22:55 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: no it did not install anything and said that glx-96 was installed | 22:55 |
| BluesKaj | ok , | 22:55 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: let me try sudo nvidia-xconfig | 22:56 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, right | 22:56 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: says backed up | 22:57 |
| Crystufer | Yo. What's the default kernel that ships with kubuntu 9.1? | 22:59 |
| Crystufer | Like the file name. | 22:59 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, are your apps working ok ? | 23:00 |
| Crystufer | I need it to plug into http://paste.ubuntu.com/372095/ | 23:00 |
| === christian is now known as WierdAAR | ||
| BenPA | BluesKaj: they were ... I just rebooted and it says "running in low-graphics mode" once again (sigh) | 23:01 |
| WierdAAR | Anybody wiling to answer a couple of questions for a linux newcommer? | 23:01 |
| Crystufer | Never ask. Just post questions. | 23:02 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: error msgs include failed to load NVIDIA kernel module | 23:02 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: also no usable configuration | 23:02 |
| WierdAAR | Does Kubuntu require mantinense and if how? It seems to me that my system has become slower after a couble of days of use (installing packeges but other than that mostly nothing) | 23:03 |
| Crystufer | WierdAAR: I'm afraid that's how OS's are. They like to slow down after a bit. Especially once you install more system hogging apps. | 23:05 |
| Crystufer | As for what maintenance you can do, I got no clue. #ubuntu has more peeps on atm though. | 23:06 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, the only thing left to do IMO is to reinstall to your / partition using the manual partitoning option, without formatting. This method will save your data and app config files . sorry but this is my best suggestion | 23:07 |
| WierdAAR | Crystufer: Well I figures as muched. I was wondering, I have installed a couble of programs through tarballs. Does that create temporary data that hoogs the system if you don't remove them? | 23:07 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: the funny part is that I had to install 8.10 then upgrade to 9.04 ... I could not directly update ... well, thanks for the help ... what do you think about modifying boot kernel to include noapic? | 23:08 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, I've heard ppl suggest noapic , but unfortunately i'm not familiar with it's results | 23:10 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok | 23:11 |
| BluesKaj | BenPA, noapic might work, i just never had any experience with it | 23:13 |
| BenPA | BluesKaj: ok | 23:13 |
| BluesKaj | gotta go | 23:25 |
