| somaunn | ? | 20:29 |
| superfly | i don't know what you've read, so i can't tell you if there's any news of 11.04 | 20:31 |
| somaunn | i read about unity replacing gnome desktop | 20:32 |
| somaunn | i've read about btrfs replacing ext4 | 20:32 |
| somaunn | and few changes | 20:32 |
| superfly | i didn't know btrfs was coming in | 20:32 |
| somaunn | but it's was since novemberthat's | 20:32 |
| somaunn | that's why i'm asking u guys if there are news on ubuntu | 20:33 |
| superfly | I use Kubuntu, so I don't generally keep up with Ubuntu itself, since it mostly doesn't affect me | 20:34 |
| somaunn | okay | 20:35 |
| superfly | somaunn: www.omgubuntu.co.uk usually has the latest news on Ubuntu | 20:36 |

| Kilos | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1650809 | 20:51 |
| Kilos | i looking into it now | 20:51 |
| Kilos | sudo aptitude remove vlc sorted it out | 21:10 |
| Kilos | looks like it's vlc trying to take over everything instead of videos and songs only | 21:11 |
| Kilos | swine thing | 21:11 |
| superfly | Kilos: I have VLC installed, and it didn't do that to my computer | 21:11 |
| superfly | I think that thing you downloaded that you shouldn't have messed things up | 21:11 |
| Kilos | it has never done it with me either | 21:11 |
| Kilos | maybe it did. i like vlc | 21:12 |
| Kilos | i try install again with pictures and downloads folders open so it cant jump in | 21:12 |
| Kilos | i just googled the wrong probs before | 21:14 |
| wedwo- | [16:11] <superfly> I think that thing you downloaded that you shouldn't have messed things up | 21:22 |
| Kilos | most likely | 21:22 |
| Kilos | but its fixed now | 21:22 |
| Kilos | ty whew what a stressful thing to happen | 21:23 |
| wedwo- | lmdsnmons | 21:23 |
| Kilos | lag my dood so nou moet ons wat | 21:24 |
| Kilos | nog sien | 21:24 |
| Kilos | install vlc and its back | 21:25 |
| Kilos | grrrr | 21:25 |
| superfly | Kilos: yes, because you didn't fix the problem, you removed the symptom | 21:26 |
| Kilos | eish | 21:26 |
| Kilos | and all i wanted was to get a vid on how to make free electricity | 21:27 |
| * Kilos cries | 21:27 | |
| superfly | wedwo-: are you running Gnome? | 21:29 |
