| MrMazda | over an hour I've been hunting other docs and FAQ without finding instructions howto: 1-download installation linux and initrd.gz; 2-load them using Grub; 3-install via http only Kubuntu (no minimal install followed by apt-get install kubuntu-desktop). Is this possible as it is for Gnombuntu? If so, where's the doc? | 00:10 |

| Ezros | Kubuntu froze on me, awesome. | 01:07 |
| Ezros | How do I ctrl-alt-delete things in Kubuntu? | 01:08 |
| Ezros | Because this is running super slow | 01:08 |

| BrotherDave | Are there any easy to use keyloggers for Kubuntu? | 01:16 |
| BrotherDave | Say.... to log a friends facebook / whatever password? :) | 01:17 |
| sea4ever | BrotherDave: Such software is an abomination! People would refuse to taint the purity of linux by creating malicious software for it. | 01:18 |
| BrotherDave | Long story short, Step Brother get's on my pc when I'm not looking (forgot to lock it sometimes) and if my facebook is up. He will change my status to something retarded. I'm just looking for a way to get payback is all :0 | 01:19 |
| sea4ever | lol. Well that's a step-brother for you. Go hit him with something big, moist, sticky, and squishy in the face if you want payback. | 01:21 |
| sea4ever | That will give you a lot more satisfaction than posting something on facebook anyway. | 01:21 |

| Ezros | I installed the NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver version 185 | 01:23 |
| Ezros | And now my monitor isn't working [I'm on a laptop] | 01:23 |
| nathan_ | I am sorry to intrude. Is anyone ready for a stupid LINUX question? | 01:24 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Ezros, from jockey ? | 01:24 |
| Ezros | Can someone please help me lol | 01:24 |
| Ezros | Maybe? | 01:24 |
| Ezros | I have no idea. | 01:24 |
| Ezros | I went to "Hardware Drivers" and that was the recommended driver in the program. | 01:24 |
| nathan_ | I am trying to copy a 52GB file from my local drive to an external drive connected via USB. | 01:24 |
| sea4ever | Ezros: I'm not sure, but I think you should try this command 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' | 01:25 |
| nathan_ | I have tried cp and it just goes away. | 01:25 |
| nathan_ | I am now trying rsyn with --progress and I am watching the transfer rate slowly tank. Help! | 01:25 |
| Ezros | sea5ever: What will that do? | 01:25 |
| nathan_ | rsyn=rsync | 01:25 |
| sea4ever | That's sea4ever, lol. It should make the monitor work again the way it used to | 01:26 |
| Ezros | lol | 01:26 |

| Ezros | I'm using Kubuntu newest version. | 01:31 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Ezros, lsb_release -a | 01:32 |
| Ezros | Yup yup, karmic. | 01:33 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Ezros, I ask because i need to know your installation in order to help | 01:34 |
| Ezros | It's all good. | 01:35 |
| Whopper | Was wondering, I'd like to put Kubuntu on a relatively old pc (2002) with 512mb RAM, 1GHz, and 40gb hard drive...would the latest build of Kubuntu run at reasonable speed or do you recommend I run another distro | 01:35 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | it's all good , your monitor isn't working ... uhmm okaaaay.. i won't waste your time | 01:36 |
| Ezros | ? | 01:37 |
| Ezros | What? lol | 01:37 |
| sea4ever | Whopper: I just read that it should work just fine | 01:40 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Whopper, with 512 RAM xfce desktop would run ok ..not quite enough for kde or gnome | 01:40 |
| sea4ever | If anything you can always just change the default WM to something lighter. | 01:41 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | kde without plasma might be ok | 01:42 |
| Ezros | BluesKaj-Laptop: Can you help me with this? I don't know what I'm doing. | 01:42 |
| Whopper | BluesKaj-Laptop, Yes that's what I figured, since I know gnome wouldn't work period no matter the settings (unless I set it at the bare minimum) so my next best bet was KDE...I'll try KDE at low settings, and then XFCE and check out this LXDE desktop in the works...thanks for your help | 01:43 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Whopper, I think you'll like kde well enough to run at non plasma, if that's possible now | 01:44 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | one never knows for sure 512 may be ok | 01:45 |
| Whopper | BluesKaj-Laptop, I know 512 is sufficient for many current Linux builds, however it's the fact my computer is from 2002 (was once a business server back in the day), that some of the additional requirements may not be met due to outdated hardware that hasn't been upgraded since that date | 01:46 |
| Whopper | I'll give it a go, though :) | 01:47 |
| nathan_ | I am trying to copy a 52GB file from my local drive to an external drive connected via USB. | 01:47 |
| nathan_ | I tried cp and it just goes away. | 01:47 |
| nathan_ | I am trying rsync and watching my transfer rate tank. | 01:48 |
| nathan_ | Any suggestions? | 01:48 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | whopper , I ram 6.10 on a 128ram 333mhz machine for a yrs before I bought another desktop ..it ran quite well with kde at the time bit slowbut no worse then windows 95 :) | 01:48 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | err ran | 01:48 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Ezros, how did you install nvidia-glx-185 | 01:50 |
| Whopper | Yes that's what I figure :) I have Windows 2000 Professional on it currently, and want a free alternative that I can preserve the longevity of my machine with for years to come :) | 01:50 |
| Whopper | Since with all due respect, Windows 2000 is crap | 01:50 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Whopper, well it's the best windows OAS IMO :) | 01:51 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | OS | 01:51 |
| Whopper | Lol true :) | 01:51 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Whopper, after installation, cmon back here and report to us how it's running ..I'm very curious | 01:52 |
| Whopper | BluesKaj-Laptop, It'll have to wait till Saturday, I don't have the time to properly set up a Linux distro due to my work schedule...however I will set it up Friday night, and report to you guys Saturday | 01:53 |
| Whopper | However I am burning the ISO image to a CD as we speak, so the CD is ready to install :) | 01:53 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | I still have an old similar pc in my basement I might donate to the seniors center . | 01:54 |
| Ezros | BluesKaj-Laptop: I installed by going to the "Hardware Drivers" thing that came with Kubuntu. | 01:54 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | they have acouple of pcs running linux already , mainly for surfing etc | 01:54 |
| Whopper | BluesKaj-Laptop, I did something similar with a 256MB 10GB HD laptop with 500mhz, I put SliTaz on the hard drive, firefox with flash and what not, and a few music programs, open office....it runs great, and the kids are appreciative of it :) | 01:55 |
| Whopper | brb | 01:56 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Whopper, cool :) | 01:56 |
| Ezros | Okay, I removed that driver | 02:03 |
| Ezros | Hopefully I can use my monitor again lol | 02:03 |
| Whopper | :) | 02:04 |
| Ezros | brb | 02:04 |
| Whopper | Ezros, back when I used Dapper Drake in 2006-2007, I had a similar problem | 02:04 |
| LeeJunFan | Yay, after the most recent openoffice updates it seems the hang time when using the file open/save dialog is back :( | 02:08 |
| Ezros | Okay, my monitor is "working" again. | 02:09 |
| Ezros | I downloaded a .run file from NVIDIA, can someone tell me how to use it please? | 02:10 |
| Griffo | this sucks | 02:10 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Ezros, which driver is it? | 02:11 |
| Ezros | http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_190.53.html | 02:11 |
| Kage | Ezros from the commandline type: chmod a+x .run && ./.run | 02:11 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Kage, we need to know if it's the right driver | 02:12 |
| Ezros | It should be. | 02:12 |
| Ezros | It's for 9 series on Linux 64. | 02:12 |
| Kage | BluesKaj-Laptop: he asked how to use it, not if it was the right driver :P | 02:12 |
| Ezros | 9M series, not 9. | 02:12 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Ezros, that driver should work , but you can also use the terminal to install the driver from the repos , sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 02:14 |
| Ezros | "Couldn't find package" | 02:15 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | ok, you don't have all your repos enabled, Ezros ..do it the way Kage described | 02:17 |
| Ezros | Well, I can't figure out how to do the way Kage explained | 02:19 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | Kage, we have to be careful about the nvidia propreitary drivers , sometimes they break the system worse than it is already | 02:20 |
| Kage | BluesKaj-Laptop: he didn't ask if it was safe... he asked how to use it. | 02:21 |
| Ezros | So much stuff with linux :-/ | 02:22 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | look Kage , we have to be mindful of giving correct advice ok...understand ? ..whether he asked if it was safe ornot isn't thepoint here. | 02:24 |
| Ezros | I still don't know what I'm doing, for the record. | 02:25 |
| Kage | BluesKaj-Laptop: IMO when someone asks a question on how to do something, we should give them a direct answer | 02:27 |
| BluesKaj-Laptop | ok Kage , he's all yours ..i don't need this | 02:30 |

| Whopper | Arsin: As per opinion, or overal statistics | 03:36 |
| Tm_T | !best | Arsin | 03:36 |
| ubottu | Arsin: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 03:36 |
| Arsin | How would I get these programs? Also is it normal for windows to be 'stuck' where they are and are unable to move around? | 03:37 |
| Tm_T | Arsin: all those three mentioned are in Kubuntu by default (: | 03:37 |
| Tm_T | and no, windows being stuck is not normal | 03:38 |
| Arsin | I would need to quit this program to use a program that is 'behind' it windows wise | 03:38 |
| Whopper | Arsin: Typically I'd just use the programs installed by default...though I prefer to use Opera as a web browser and Xchat/Irssi as an IRC client, I like Kopete for the instant messaging capabilities | 03:38 |

| noaXess | any knowledge in kernel compilation? | 06:51 |
| netdaemon | a bit, i'v never done it on kubuntu though | 06:51 |
| noaXess | okay :).. so this.. with uname -r i get: 2.6.31-20-generic.. | 06:53 |
| noaXess | have also installed latest headers in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-20-generic | 06:53 |
| noaXess | if i do a make menuconfig in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-20-generic in top of menuconfig is kernel version: v2.6.31.9.. | 06:54 |
| noaXess | i also copied /boot/config-2.6.31-20-generic to .config into the headers.. so i have the exact same config as the running kernel.. | 06:55 |
| noaXess | any idea why in menuconfig is 2.6.31.9? | 06:55 |
| noaXess | a dpkg -l | grep linux-headers --> ii linux-headers-2.6.31-20-generic 2.6.31-20.57 Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.31 on x | 06:56 |

| vHanda | Has anyone gotten Stigi (part of Nepomuk) to work properly. It indexes the files, but it doesn't seem like it's of any use. | 10:23 |
| vHanda | Anyone? | 10:26 |
| vHanda | Please ping me, if you have. | 10:27 |
| phrearch | is there a way to decrease the memory footprint of kubuntu? | 10:32 |
| phrearch | im running kde4.4, and its using 2gb of ram atm | 10:33 |
| Tm_T | how you measure it? | 10:33 |
| phrearch | with the free command | 10:34 |
| phrearch | Mem: 2058092 1870156 187936 0 154744 817396 | 10:34 |
| phrearch | seems its almost out of ram | 10:34 |
| Tm_T | phrearch: do "free -m | grep -" | 10:35 |
| phrearch | -/+ buffers/cache: 878 1131 | 10:36 |
| phrearch | thats the expected result? | 10:36 |
| Tm_T | so that's 878 MiB for actual binaries&stuff, rest is used for buffers and cache, as it should | 10:36 |
| Tm_T | phrearch: Linux kernel is smart, it uses free ram for cache, thus speeding up your system | 10:38 |
| phrearch | aha ok, good to know that. thanks | 10:38 |
| phrearch | the system feels a bit unresponsive though | 10:39 |
| olskolirc | I can't hear my MP3's on Karamik - I can hear the bootup sound but no music on the system | 10:39 |
| phrearch | maybe time to buy a new system | 10:39 |
| Tm_T | phrearch: press ctrl+esc, it should show you system monitor | 10:40 |
| phrearch | it does | 10:40 |
| phrearch | moving windows pushes xorg to almost 60% cpu | 10:40 |
| Tm_T | phrearch: you might like to check that you have correct drivers for graphics card installed | 10:41 |
| phrearch | in compositing mode this drops dramatically | 10:41 |
| phrearch | 15% max | 10:42 |
| phrearch | instead of 60+ | 10:42 |
| phrearch | ok that was it | 10:42 |
| Tm_T | phrearch: heh, using GPU properly has its benefits, yes | 10:42 |
| phrearch | everything is more responsive agagin | 10:42 |
| phrearch | i guess my cpu is crap | 10:43 |
| Tm_T | nah, CPU is just not designed to do what GPU does | 10:43 |

| n8w | hey | 14:36 |
| n8w | how do i clean up a memory?ive tried "echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" but then i have to use "su"... | 14:37 |
| n8w | usin su is ok,but i cant see any difference while usin free -m under my regular account | 14:37 |
| n8w | i can see the impact of echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches under the root,but not under my user account | 14:38 |
| genii | n8w: Set instead: vm.drop_caches = 1 in the file /etc/sysctl.conf | 14:40 |
| n8w | genii: what does it do? | 14:41 |
| genii | n8w: When you use su it sets for superuser, when you set it globally in /etc/sysctl.conf it makes it for all users | 14:42 |
| n8w | genii: ok supa..im gonna try... | 14:43 |
| n8w | genii: well,ive got prob...all lines in the file r commented out n there is nothin like vm.drop_caches = 1 | 14:45 |
| n8w | genii: shall i add that line inthere? | 14:45 |
| genii | n8w: Yes. | 14:45 |
| n8w | genii: ok,thx for your help;) | 14:45 |
| genii | n8w: After next reboot the change will be global | 14:45 |
| otswim | does anyone have an idea for my 'Enter' problem? if i change the shortcut to another key (for instance '+' or something) then i can send messages with the key; but not when the key is Return or Enter :( | 14:47 |
| n8w | genii: im sry, but this the last question:))...im gonna add it like this: echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches ....is that correct? | 14:48 |
| genii | n8w: No | 14:48 |
| genii | n8w: More like: echo "vm.drop_caches = 1" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf | 14:49 |
| n8w | genii: uff...that looks toaly different:) | 14:50 |
| genii | n8w: Stuff set in the file /etc/sysctl.conf is just changing the default value during boot time so it doesn't need to be done by messing with stuff in the /proc/sys/ area. To edit that file you need admin hence the "sudo tee -a" part | 14:53 |
| genii | n8w: Running as root or under su is discouraged in ubuntu, almost all admin work is done with sudo | 14:53 |
| n8w | genii: yep...thx...im gonna add that line as u say | 14:54 |
| n8w | genii: ok i did echo "vm.drop_caches = 1" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf from the konsole n it has been written to the file.... | 14:57 |

| Zxcvb | will kubuntu run off of a U3 virtual cd partition? | 15:04 |
| genii | Zxcvb: Yes. Although I usually use u3-tool to remove it altogether | 15:08 |
| Zxcvb | genii: nice, so you can use u3-tool to run a kubuntu dvd iso image | 15:12 |
| Zxcvb | genii: do all live cd/dvds work with that? | 15:12 |
| genii | Zxcvb: I have a Sandisk Cruzer which I tested the virtual cd boot using an Xubuntu 9.10 image, works fine. Theoretically any livecd will work. The Cruzer is setup in a persistent install mode where it boots the virtual cd then uses the mass storage part of the stick for keeping settings, etc. I disabled swap on purpose because of read/write life cycle of the sticks is not that great | 15:15 |

| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| === Mamarok_ is now known as Mamarok | ||
| seicherlbob | isnt there anybody that knows a litte bit about sound arcitecture in kde?? I'm getting crazy about how Alsa, Pulse, Phonon and Xine stick together. Can someone tell me that? | 16:08 |
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: alsa is the underlying sound architecture | 16:19 |
| Mamarok | then there is Phonon on top of it in KDE, using various backends for sound output, like for example the xine backend | 16:20 |
| seicherlbob | and what has pulse to do with it? because my pulse device is not working | 16:20 |
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: well, if you only use KDE you don't need pulseaudio | 16:20 |
| Mamarok | or to be more prcise: KDE doesn't use it | 16:21 |
| seicherlbob | ok, thats an info i can use | 16:21 |
| Mamarok | precise | 16:21 |
| seicherlbob | so i can purge it? | 16:21 |
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: well, you can remove it, but purge is not advises, since it might want to remove more than necessary | 16:22 |
| Mamarok | and once it was installed, you will always have libpulse0 installed, it's almost impossible to get rid of it, but it shouldn't disturb | 16:22 |
| seicherlbob | ok. do you know how i can configure the alsa devices? because my waveIn collides with my frontout | 16:22 |
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: you need to remove all pluseaudio-* packages, then remove the $HOME/.kde/share/config/phonondevicesrc, then restart KDE | 16:23 |
| Mamarok | Phonon will configure the rest | 16:23 |
| seicherlbob | remove as in apt-get remove ? | 16:24 |
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: unless you have an exotic soundcard it should just work | 16:24 |
| seicherlbob | Creative .... Xfi Titanium | 16:24 |
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: yes | 16:24 |
| === h is now known as Guest38027 | ||
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: I don't know if that is exotic, try what I suggested first :) | 16:25 |
| seicherlbob | The problem is that some channels are doubled in the MultimediaSettings and sometimes the front out is weird. And i'd like to have some outputs on multiple channels (like music to front AND rear) | 16:25 |
| seicherlbob | ok, i'll remove pulse packages and the phonondevices, then restart. right? | 16:27 |
| Mamarok | only restart KDE, not restart the computer | 16:28 |
| seicherlbob | ok | 16:28 |
| seicherlbob | how can i ask apt about installed packages? like apt-cache search, but only on installed ones? | 16:28 |
| seicherlbob | got it | 16:30 |
| seicherlbob | oh, no. these were all packagenames... | 16:30 |
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: try this: aptitude search '~i' | 16:30 |
| seicherlbob | according to aptitude -> installed packages -> sound; i have no pulse installed anyway | 16:32 |
| === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk | ||
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: you certainly have libpulse0, else it wouldn't show up in the phonon devices list | 16:34 |
| Mamarok | but it might not be labeled in the sound section | 16:34 |
| seicherlbob | right, libpulse is installed, but nothing else | 16:34 |
| Mamarok | OK, that's good | 16:35 |
| seicherlbob | they are all marked with "p" | 16:35 |
| Mamarok | do you have all channels active in KMix? | 16:35 |
| seicherlbob | Yes | 16:35 |
| Mamarok | well, try removing the phonondevicesrc and restart KDE, then | 16:36 |
| seicherlbob | ok, i'll check that | 16:37 |

| Mamarok | seicherlbob: no, not really, sorry | 16:43 |
| Mamarok | seicherlbob: you should ask in #phonon | 16:43 |
| seicherlbob | ok. Thanks. At least the weird front sounds are gone for now (maybe because of X restart) | 16:44 |
| seicherlbob | ok, I'll look there. | 16:44 |

| floh | I found out with "mount /dev/sdd2 /mnt/temp/" it works fine (this is the partition which is availeble in dolphin). | 17:47 |
| floh | But not with "mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/temp/". => "mount: you must specify the filesystem type" | 17:48 |
| floh | How can I get more information *why* it isn't working? | 17:48 |

| === orion_ is now known as Guest43685 | ||

| chuckf | devurandom: how comfortable are you with an unstable system? | 19:42 |
| devurandom | chuckf: Depends on the definition of "unstable"... | 19:42 |

| Typos_King | widget folder view? | 23:43 |
| Typos_King | ... well... I don't use it I guess | 23:43 |
| ultraputz | there's a plasma widget that lets you view a folder... | 23:44 |
| ultraputz | hold the mouse over a folder, it opens, a file, produces an info panel, etc. | 23:44 |
| Typos_King | ..k... mmm I usually stick with .. krusader :) | 23:45 |
| ultraputz | i am re-new to kde (last time i used it as a desktop environment was a redhack install in '97) | 23:46 |
| ultraputz | still using mostly defaults, though konqueror earned it's way to replacement by FF -- the rest of K blows the doors off of Gnome, piecemeal and as a whole. | 23:46 |
| ultraputz | the last time i was this happy with a desktop environment, i was using a NeXT. | 23:47 |
| Typos_King | hehe | 23:47 |
| ultraputz | if i ever get rich, i'm gonna set up an open bar at the next KDE code camp :-) | 23:47 |
| Typos_King | konqueror? hehe, I use Opera10... faster, flexible and quite up to standards | 23:48 |
| Typos_King | yes, I also have firefox | 23:48 |
| ultraputz | every time i start to give opera a chance, i stumble on something that needs FF. | 23:49 |
| Typos_King | 'needs'? heheehe, I don't :P | 23:49 |
| Typos_King | like ... for example? | 23:49 |
| ultraputz | needs -- like the intranet timekeeping system at work | 23:50 |
| ultraputz | also, i'm on a computer an aztec would laugh at, so speed _really_ matters. | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | that's intranet stuff, I assume is addressing 'a' specific user-agent, so | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | that's expectable under those circumstances | 23:50 |
| ultraputz | and so far, ff 3.5 has smoked konq (mainly related to how they work with cache vs. ram) | 23:50 |
| ultraputz | yeah, but you'll note that FF is happy, IE is happy, and the others are not... | 23:51 |
| Typos_King | other than the intranet? | 23:51 |
| Typos_King | is that it? | 23:51 |
| ultraputz | do you develop? | 23:51 |
| Typos_King | I mean, one can be as biased intranet wise, to make it IE-only, too, or konqueror-only as well, I don't see how that refers to the user-agent rather than the developers | 23:52 |
| Typos_King | I do webdev | 23:52 |
| ultraputz | well, between being grindingly slow and unresponsive, and not working with the website i most visit, yes, "that is it" :-) | 23:52 |
| Typos_King | have you used opera10 yet? | 23:53 |
| ultraputz | no, unrelated question -- i was curious about k dev | 23:53 |
| Typos_King | don't mistake me, fo webdev debugging and such, you certainly can't beat FF | 23:53 |
| ultraputz | no, i have not given 10 a run | 23:53 |

| ultraputz | so yes, i am familiar with webdev :-) | 23:54 |
| Typos_King | heheh | 23:54 |
| Typos_King | well, some while ago... .about 6years or so ago, opera and geckos were the top-rated standard compliant browsers, these days is safari/geckos with opera right behind it | 23:55 |
| ultraputz | i would like to try the webkit plugin for Konq | 23:55 |
| ultraputz | but i hated skatfari on the mac... ran ff there, too :-) | 23:55 |
| Typos_King | opera does have quite good css2.1 support, and a few css3 features as well, it does do embedded fonts, as specified by the css3 standards, and also has decent DOM2 support as well as js 1.5 | 23:56 |
| Typos_King | only difference between opera and others, is it parses quicker | 23:57 |
| ultraputz | the thing that ultimately makes ff my browser is that i can really futz with it. | 23:58 |
| ultraputz | i know js, you can make ff breakdance on command. | 23:58 |
| ultraputz | er if you | 23:58 |
| ultraputz | (if you know js...) | 23:58 |
| ultraputz | XUL is... cool is not the right word. XUL works well. there we go. | 23:58 |
| Typos_King | ff has a memory management issue they haven't solved, afaik | 23:58 |
| ultraputz | no, they have not. | 23:58 |
| Typos_King | well, if you do xul, sure, I'm sure a vbs dev will say the same about vbs in IE | 23:59 |
| ultraputz | i have an n810, and it's browser is an emaciated firefox. | 23:59 |
| ultraputz | "microB" | 23:59 |
| ultraputz | it's speed is as obvious as it's bad memory management | 23:59 |
