| diplo | Morning all | 08:19 |
| DJones | Hi diplo | 08:30 |
| diplo | Quiet in here this morning | 08:35 |
| DJones | Yes, I was thinking that, one comment between 10pm and 8am, pretty much unheard of | 08:36 |
| dogmatic69 | is it correct to call ubuntu Unix? | 08:43 |
| bigcalm | No | 08:44 |
| bigcalm | Ubuntu is a distrabution of Linux which strives to be POSIX compatable | 08:45 |
| dogmatic69 | thats what i thought | 08:46 |
| dogmatic69 | "But if you consider Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX) standards then Linux can be considered as UNIX." | 08:47 |
| DJones | dogmatic69: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/what-is-the-difference-between-linux-and-unix/ | 08:49 |
| dogmatic69 | DJones: that is where the quote is from | 08:50 |
| DJones | Heh | 08:50 |

| * DJones debates whether to buy minecraft having finally got the old version running on my laptop, I didn't think it ran on Intel graphics, but seems ok (if a little slow) with intel hd graphics | 09:01 | |
| bigcalm | DJones: do it! | 09:04 |
| DJones | Just need to pick a username that isn't taken | 09:09 |

| DJones | ok, now bought | 09:19 |

| brobostigon | good morning everyone. | 10:28 |
| wintellect | hey brobostigon | 10:35 |
| brobostigon | hey wintellect | 10:35 |
| BigRedS | su | 10:36 |
| BigRedS | gah | 10:36 |
| BigRedS | confused terminator again :/ | 10:36 |
| MartijnVdS | BigRedS: "I'll be back" | 10:36 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 10:44 |
| Ng | BigRedS: ooi in what way is it becoming confused? | 10:53 |
| BigRedS | Ng: it seems that, after a few goes of adding and removing panes, it 'forgets' where they are | 10:59 |
| BigRedS | so alt+left might actually go up | 10:59 |
| BigRedS | er, no, not that bad actuall | 10:59 |
| Ng | ahh the navigation | 10:59 |
| BigRedS | alt+up will for a while go to top-left, then at some point start going to top-right | 10:59 |
| BigRedS | yeah | 10:59 |
| Ng | I should never have let that in at all, it's too hard to do | 10:59 |
| BigRedS | I'm always quite amazed that it works at all, so I'm quite accepting of it stopping | 10:59 |
| BigRedS | no, leave it in! | 11:00 |
| BigRedS | even buggy, it's invaluable! | 11:00 |
| BigRedS | I just need to restart it every few weeks, it's no great hardship | 11:01 |
| BigRedS | or I could just pay attention to what I'm doing | 11:01 |
| davmor2 | morning all | 11:09 |
| * davmor2 tickles popey and prods czajkowski | 11:10 | |
| * czajkowski stbas davmor2 | 11:10 | |
| davmor2 | wow czajkowski has turned me into saint bas nice | 11:11 |
| * czajkowski frowns at the keyboard | 11:11 | |
| czajkowski | stupid spaces between keys | 11:11 |
| davmor2 | czajkowski: only a poor workwoman blames her tools :P | 11:13 |
| DJones | Wouldn't a poor workwoman have sold her tools to buy food, so couldn't blame the said tools | 11:14 |
| BigRedS | if she'd sold her tools, she wouldn't be poor any more | 11:14 |
| davmor2 | or a workwoman | 11:15 |
| DJones | If she didn't have tools, she wouldn't be a workwoman either, | 11:15 |
| BigRedS | she could use someone else's tools | 11:16 |
| * bigcalm melts | 11:16 | |
| czajkowski | or can I just blame the mac layout of keys | 11:17 |
| czajkowski | eh | 11:17 |
| czajkowski | :) | 11:17 |
| bigcalm | That's fine. Mac keyboards look nice, work terribly | 11:18 |
| czajkowski | has anyone had/seen a bug on natty with alt tabbing not working | 11:50 |
| czajkowski | when they upgraded | 11:50 |
| BigRedS | I've had the alt-tabbed-to thing raised but not given focus | 11:52 |
| BigRedS | but thats as broken as I've seen | 11:52 |
| czajkowski | just wondering on a bug number | 11:54 |
| czajkowski | had a mate whinge about it | 11:54 |
| czajkowski | then moved to debian over it | 11:54 |
| BigRedS | oh, I've not seen a bug for it | 11:54 |
| === imexil1 is now known as imexil | ||
| gord | czajkowski, sounds like they had a custom compiz setup when upgrading and for some reason the alt tab plugin wasn't selecting in their plugins, not heard of a bug number but honestly its one of those hard to fix ones, if people want to customise compiz they should be able to, even if that means breaking their system ;) | 12:15 |

| andylockran | like pastebin | 13:25 |
| jpds | andylockran: imgur.com | 13:25 |
| DJones | !imagebin | 13:26 |
| lubotu3 | Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it. | 13:26 |
| andylockran | thanks | 13:30 |
| davmor2 | andylockran: ubuntu one with http link enabled? | 13:39 |
| * popey grumbles about ubuntu one being useless when you're behind a proxy | 13:40 | |
| davmor2 | popey: I hope you have reported it :) | 13:40 |
| popey | yes | 13:40 |
| davmor2 | popey: oh and never let up on aq till he fixes it | 13:40 |
| popey | 2 years ago | 13:40 |
| popey | bug 387308 | 13:41 |
| lubotu3 | Launchpad bug 387308 in Ubuntu One Client "HTTPS Proxy Support for file sync" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/387308 | 13:41 |
| brobostigon | ok,where in drupal do i change the allowed file upload size. please. | 13:48 |
| Azelphur | brobostigon: 6 or 7? | 13:49 |
| brobostigon | Azelphur: 7 | 13:50 |
| Seeker` | Can anyone recommend a wireless N adaptor that works well with ubnutu? | 13:50 |
| * Azelphur looks around | 13:51 | |
| gord | in my experience? no | 13:51 |
| brobostigon | Azelphur: thank you. | 13:51 |
| Azelphur | brobostigon: are you using any special module for file uloads? | 13:52 |
| brobostigon | Azelphur: no. | 13:53 |
| andylockran | can anyone tell me how to detect what display X is running on for a remote machine? | 13:56 |
| Azelphur | brobostigon: it seems to be set per content type your attaching the file to now, http://drupal.org/documentation/modules/file | 13:56 |
| shauno | andylockran: I think you can just ls /tmp/.X11-unix/ to see what sockets have been created? | 13:56 |
| brobostigon | Azelphur: ok, thank you. | 13:57 |
| andylockran | shauno: that's got X0 in it | 13:58 |
| davmor2 | andylockran: do a dpkg -l | xserver-xorg ? | 13:59 |
| shauno | so that'd just mean X is on :0 ? (or did I misunderstand the question) | 13:59 |
| andylockran | lamech ~ # export DISPLAY=:0 | 13:59 |
| andylockran | lamech ~ # xeyes | 13:59 |
| andylockran | No protocol specified | 13:59 |
| andylockran | Error: Can't open display: :0 | 13:59 |
| andylockran | ^ should have pastebin'd | 13:59 |
| andylockran | !pastebin | andylockran | 13:59 |
| lubotu3 | andylockran, please see my private message | 13:59 |
| shauno | hm, I wonder if that's an xauth thing | 14:00 |
| davmor2 | andylockran: sorry misread your question | 14:00 |
| andylockran | davmor2: no problemo | 14:00 |
| andylockran | I'm just messing around anyways | 14:00 |
| shauno | I gotta pop out to rescue my package from the post office :/ hopefully someone who's got X in front of them could make more sense of why you can't connect to it | 14:01 |
| BigRedS | argh. anyone know off the top of their head where sudoers sticks its lock file? | 14:02 |
| BigRedS | ah. /etc/sudoers.tmp | 14:02 |
| * popey wonders if Azelphur has made his bitcoin millions | 14:03 | |
| Azelphur | popey: doing quite good so far, building more machines :) | 14:03 |
| popey | how many machines you got now? | 14:03 |
| Azelphur | 8 | 14:03 |
| Azelphur | I'm actually doing some trading right now | 14:03 |
| Azelphur | I just made £112 as we was talking :) | 14:04 |
| popey | :D | 14:04 |
| Azelphur | and another 30 :p | 14:04 |
| Azelphur | just filling the ridiculous price orders, £11.50+ per coin...shiny | 14:05 |
| MartijnVdS | Thank you for funding the mafia | 14:05 |
| Azelphur | yw mafia | 14:05 |
| Azelphur | popey: that said I'm still negative profit atm, but hopefully not for long :) | 14:07 |
| popey | hah, I'm ahead of you then ;) | 14:07 |
| Azelphur | hehe | 14:08 |
| Azelphur | got a very nice new miner design coming, thinking I might sell some of those nice asus boards in here on the cheap :p | 14:08 |
| popey | can't help but wonder whether you'd have been better off just buying 2K worth of coins | 14:09 |
| Azelphur | I don't think so, this method provides a constant stream and gives me some physical merchandise should everything go south | 14:09 |
| === airurando_ is now known as airurando | ||
| BigRedS | ctrl-q closing a window, is that decided by the WM or the app itself? | 14:30 |
| BigRedS | I'd assumed WM, but the absence of consistency suggests otherwise.. | 14:30 |
| BigRedS | I assumed it was a key combination that just sent the same signal as clicking the 'x' | 14:31 |
| ormiret | BigRedS: generally the app, but if you want to you could mkae the WM catch it and close the app. | 14:31 |
| ormiret | I think alt-F4 is normally bound to that. | 14:31 |
| Neoti01 | does anyonje in here use askozia ? | 14:34 |
| Neoti01 | PBX for telephoney etc. | 14:34 |
| popey | 26 | 14:34 |
| popey | BAH! | 14:34 |
| BigRedS | ormiret: Ah, so alt-f4 is generally what the wm will use, and the app can choose to implement ctrl-q itself | 14:37 |
| bigcalm | ctrl-w in nano does a search | 14:41 |
| bigcalm | ctrl-w in firefox closes the tab | 14:41 |
| bigcalm | Irritating | 14:41 |
| BigRedS | that's one of the reasons you shouldn't be using nano | 14:42 |
| bigcalm | :( | 14:42 |
| BigRedS | <esc>:q is way more intuitive | 14:43 |
| BigRedS | er, for quitting | 14:43 |
| bigcalm | Heh, of course it is | 14:43 |
| bigcalm | vim offers no on screen help unless you know how to bring it up | 14:43 |
| BigRedS | yeah, I love that | 14:43 |
| BigRedS | actually, don't you get told how to if you invoke it with no file? | 14:43 |
| bigcalm | Yes | 14:44 |
| bigcalm | "Help poor children in Uganda! | 14:44 |
| bigcalm | " | 14:44 |
| bigcalm | Humm, not sure that should be on the welcome screen | 14:44 |
| BigRedS | ach, nobody ever sees the welcome screen anyway | 14:45 |
| bigcalm | So nobody will see the help | 14:45 |
| * bigcalm shrugs | 14:45 | |
| BigRedS | yeah | 14:46 |
| BigRedS | but it's that old philosophy that for most of the time you're using something you don't need to be told how to use it | 14:47 |

| cocoa117 | in /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen file there is line multiboot ${rel_xen_dirname}/${xen_basename} placeholder ${xen_args} | 15:52 |
| cocoa117 | <cocoa117> where xen_args="$6" | 15:52 |
| cocoa117 | <cocoa117> my question is how to set this xen_args? | 15:52 |
| cocoa117 | <cocoa117> in which program? update-grub? | 15:52 |
| BigRedS | probably in a script in /etc/grub.d | 15:55 |
| BigRedS | but I've managed to steer clear of doing anything much with gnome2 so far | 15:55 |

| shauno | my ssd arrived \o/ and it's so light it feels fake | 16:00 |
| BigRedS | haha | 16:01 |
| gord | shauno, light *and* thin? ;) | 16:14 |
| gord | my first one i half wondered if it was just empty inside | 16:14 |
| popey | heh | 16:17 |
| popey | I just ordered two for my desktop | 16:17 |
| popey | one for windows, one for ubuntu | 16:17 |
| shauno | not so much on thin .. it just feels like they left something important out of a 2.5" disk | 16:17 |
| BigRedS | wasn't there some scam where they were just empty boxes with an SD card with a dishonest partition table taped to the inside? | 16:17 |
| bigcalm | Yep | 16:17 |
| popey | heh, yeah | 16:17 |
| gord | popey, how big did you get the one for windows? | 16:18 |
| popey | 120G | 16:18 |
| popey | hope thats enough | 16:18 |
| popey | also _bought_ a copy of windows 7 | 16:18 |
| popey | i feel sick now | 16:18 |
| shauno | same size I just got. should be enough for / | 16:18 |
| gord | thats my worry with windows too, i only use windows for steam, would struggle to fit my games on less than 250 | 16:19 |
| popey | well, I _might_ leave a spinny disk in there just in case | 16:19 |
| popey | or I could put one on the esata bus | 16:19 |
| gord | ubuntu one just destroys any hope of free space on my ssd too :( every time i get a bit of space it greedily gobbles it up | 16:20 |
| shauno | I'm keeping my hdd for bulky stuff. music, movies, games, etc | 16:20 |
| gord | or rather, people updating shares gobble it up | 16:20 |
| popey | shauno: do you have it spin down? | 16:21 |
| * popey pokes marxjohnson with uupc | 16:22 | |
| shauno | it should do. I'll find out when I get home and get to play with this thing :) | 16:22 |
| popey | ahh | 16:22 |
| popey | should I encrypt my /home with ecryptfs on ssd? | 16:22 |
| shauno | for now I'm just unpacking stuff so it'll actually fit in my bag. they shipped a 2.5" disk in a box that wouldn't fit in my backpack | 16:23 |
| jpds | Any encryption on a SSD just sounds like overhead. | 16:23 |
| popey | yeah | 16:23 |
| gord | i never bother encrypting my desktop, if someone has gotten access to my desktop drives, i have bigger problems | 16:27 |
| shauno | I have an encrypted disk image I use for stuff that actually matters | 16:28 |
| shauno | financials, scans of passports, etc. given than it's a laptop, being paranoid seems sensible | 16:28 |
| shauno | but whole-disk or home still seems like overkill | 16:29 |
| shauno | thinking about it, I might see if I can set prey up to nuke it sometime | 16:30 |
| gord | encrypting your home makes sense when you go around conferences with lots of other people from different companies ;) | 16:31 |

| MartijnVdS | (they must have _something_ in common with IoM :) | 20:20 |
| joshuau | ok good work on the idea so far... | 20:21 |

| MartijnVdS | joshuau: Start small | 20:24 |
| MartijnVdS | joshuau: just some informal pub meetings, arranged on the wiki | 20:24 |
| joshuau | what wiki? | 20:24 |
| MartijnVdS | when you have people, you can organise other things (install parties, launch parties, etc.) | 20:24 |
| MartijnVdS | wiki.ubuntu.com | 20:24 |

| marxjohnson | seriously, work out what you want to get out of there being an IoM Loco, and start there | 20:30 |
| joshuau | some ideas there would be nice | 20:30 |
| marxjohnson | Well, I'm in the UK LoCo for support, and to meet interesting people | 20:31 |
| marxjohnson | mainly the latter | 20:31 |
| marxjohnson | So if I was starting a LoCo, they'd be my priorities | 20:31 |
| joshuau | what like people who like .... your average coder with a beard etc. | 20:32 |
| marxjohnson | That's me :-) | 20:32 |

| popey | I am | 22:03 |
| popey | I only speak English, sorry. | 22:03 |
| popey | !de | 22:03 |
| lubotu3 | In den meisten ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuchen Sie bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Geben Sie einfach /join #ubuntu-de ein! Danke für Ihr Verständnis. | 22:03 |
| michael__ | Well sorry. Ich wusste das nicht | 22:04 |
| michael__ | nice. English | 22:04 |
| michael__ | i prefer it too | 22:04 |
| michael__ | well i am new here | 22:04 |

| michael__ | I trying get my head around KDE or Gnome | 22:05 |
| michael__ | what is better | 22:05 |
| michael__ | ? | 22:05 |
| popey | !best | 22:05 |
| lubotu3 | 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. | 22:05 |
| popey | try them both and see for yourself | 22:05 |
| michael__ | as a Desktop environment | 22:06 |
| michael__ | tried it | 22:06 |
| michael__ | both nice | 22:06 |
| popey | personally I prefer GNOME, others like KDE | 22:06 |
| michael__ | i use gnome shell | 22:06 |
| michael__ | at the moment | 22:06 |
| brobostigon | i personally prefer gnome3/gnome-shell. | 22:06 |
| brobostigon | :) | 22:06 |

| michael__ | used gnome for long time | 22:07 |
| brobostigon | oops. | 22:07 |
| michael__ | they have unity updates | 22:07 |
| michael__ | did not like it | 22:08 |
| michael__ | how do you change the theme etc. | 22:08 |
| michael__ | nothing to see in system settings | 22:08 |
| michael__ | on ubuntu Gnome3/gnome-shell | 22:09 |
| michael__ | brother | 22:09 |
| michael__ | for another mother :) | 22:09 |
| michael__ | are there any girls in this chat room? | 22:11 |
| popey | yes | 22:11 |
| michael__ | really | 22:11 |
| popey | why wouldn't there be? | 22:11 |
| michael__ | does not look like it | 22:11 |
| popey | Women use computers too | 22:11 |
| brobostigon | michael__: ther eis a twaek tool in the gnome3-teams ppa, that wil let you change thoise things within gnome3/gnome-shell. | 22:12 |
| michael__ | just wondering | 22:12 |
| michael__ | do not think that they like to use computers | 22:12 |
| michael__ | woman do not think that they like to use computers | 22:12 |
| michael__ | woman or girls do not think that they like to use computers | 22:12 |
| michael__ | woman or girls. they do not like to use computers | 22:13 |
| michael__ | normally | 22:13 |
| michael__ | popey you are women? | 22:13 |
| popey | You are making incorrect assumptions | 22:14 |
| brobostigon | michael__: dat macht kein sinn, medchen nutzten auch computer, und et gibt keine, grenze hier in england. | 22:14 |
| popey | brobostigon: english please | 22:14 |
| brobostigon | popey: sorry. | 22:14 |
| popey | michael__: women are people who use computers just the same as men do. | 22:14 |
| michael__ | what is application called to tweak the theme? | 22:14 |
| michael__ | brobostigen | 22:15 |
| popey | michael__: which environment? | 22:15 |
| michael__ | gnome 3/ gnome-shell | 22:15 |
| michael__ | nice | 22:15 |
| popey | pass, i dont use it. brobostigon does | 22:15 |
| michael__ | to know | 22:15 |
| brobostigon | michael__: its is something like gnome tweak tool, something like that. | 22:15 |

| michael__ | the girls which i know. they dont like too | 22:16 |
| brianb__ | anyone seen the preview of windows 8 and the touch screen - how will ubuntu look in a few years time ? | 22:17 |
| popey | yeah, interesting video that windows 8 one | 22:17 |
| brianb__ | what do you think then will ubuntu/open source be able to offer an alternative to windows 8? | 22:20 |
| popey | no idea | 22:20 |
| popey | ask a designer | 22:20 |
| brianb__ | well guess dev work must start with intergration of touch displays and guesters | 22:22 |
| shauno | if the goal 2-3 year is "to look/act like windows 8", linux is already dead :p | 22:24 |
| dwatkins | michael__: that doesn't mean all girls are like that, though | 22:24 |
| * popey does a global s/girls/women/ on this channel | 22:25 | |
| michael__ | well you prove it | 22:25 |
| popey | we dont need to prove it | 22:26 |
| michael__ | windows 8 is really nice looking | 22:26 |
| popey | you're the one making duff assertions | 22:26 |
| brianb__ | but apple will be ahead if microsoft | 22:26 |
| michael__ | hope ubuntu becomes a advanced Unix system | 22:26 |
| brianb__ | and that will be on BSD | 22:26 |
| michael__ | Mac is nice | 22:27 |
| michael__ | is quite restricted i think | 22:27 |
| michael__ | but runs smooth | 22:27 |
| michael__ | Well log on Skype and show me how you use the computer | 22:28 |

| michael__ | screenshare | 22:28 |
| michael__ | nice feature | 22:28 |

| shauno | I'm having fun trying to figure out what goes on the sdd & what stays on the spindle now | 22:29 |
| popey | hehe | 22:30 |
| popey | shauno: on which os? | 22:30 |
| shauno | osx | 22:30 |
| popey | ah | 22:30 |
| shauno | I just found steam hiding away eating up 50-odd Gb. on a 120Gb disk, that's a rather unwelcome guest | 22:30 |
| michael__ | steam no doesn't do that | 22:31 |
| popey | yeah, i need to clear out all my old games | 22:31 |
| michael__ | that would be a good solution | 22:32 |
| shauno | it's just gonna be a case of figuring out which things benefit from the faster disk, and which don't | 22:32 |
| michael__ | well are you able play counter strike on it | 22:32 |
| michael__ | without trouble | 22:32 |
| shauno | (and which get hit often enough that even if they don't benefit, should be on sdd so hdd can spin down) | 22:32 |
| brianb__ | anyone had problems installing ubuntu 10.4 10.10 onto a ssd drive? | 22:33 |
| brianb__ | i think there are some issues | 22:33 |
| michael__ | did any try use HD cable | 22:33 |

| brianb__ | yeah | 22:34 |

| michael__ | I got screen resolution max 1200x... | 22:34 |
| michael__ | well to big for my screen | 22:35 |
| michael__ | and went over the edge | 22:35 |
| brianb__ | came to the conclusion theres a bug | 22:35 |
| michael__ | and yours? | 22:35 |
| michael__ | :( bug | 22:35 |
| ali1234 | i've used ubuntu with hdmi and dvi at HD+ resolutions | 22:35 |
| michael__ | and ? | 22:35 |
| ali1234 | works fine, but i have a nice monitor, not a TV | 22:36 |
| michael__ | a bug too ali | 22:36 |
| brianb__ | i could instal mandriva ok on a ssd hard disk but not ubuntu | 22:36 |
| michael__ | Well I have a TV | 22:36 |
| michael__ | monitor | 22:36 |
| michael__ | 23 inch | 22:36 |
| michael__ | well | 22:37 |
| michael__ | does ubuntu break Optical drives | 22:37 |
| michael__ | after a while | 22:37 |
| brobostigon | no, | 22:37 |
| michael__ | my one broke | 22:38 |
| brobostigon | michael__: by which failiure? | 22:38 |
| michael__ | any cool software that any would like to recommend | 22:39 |
| ali1234 | apport :) | 22:39 |
| michael__ | takes the disk reads and hangs | 22:39 |
| michael__ | apport? | 22:39 |
| michael__ | for what you use that? | 22:39 |
| ali1234 | debugging crashes | 22:40 |
| brobostigon | michael__: apport is bug reporting software. | 22:40 |
| michael__ | oh OK | 22:40 |
| michael__ | any other programs girls | 22:40 |
| ali1234 | it does more than just reporting, actually, it's very useful tool for debugging also :) | 22:40 |
| michael__ | really i guess should install it and try it out | 22:40 |
| brobostigon | ali1234: ah, ok, sorry, that seems to be all i see of it, | 22:41 |
| ali1234 | brobostigon: it processes crash dumps too, and installs debug symbols and such, very handy | 22:41 |
| michael__ | have it already installed | 22:41 |
| brobostigon | ali1234: sounds it, yes, | 22:41 |
| michael__ | noob | 22:41 |
| brobostigon | michael__: yes,it is as standard in ubuntu. | 22:42 |

| michael__ | forgotten most of the stuff which i read | 22:43 |
| * brobostigon likes blender for video editing, after various point in that direction, | 22:43 | |
| michael__ | I think openshot has a bit nicer GUI | 22:44 |
| ali1234 | linux still lacks a decent motion graphics tool that can do things like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQO-aOdJLiw | 22:45 |
| ali1234 | sure, you *could* use blender... if you wanted to spend several years on it :) | 22:47 |
| brobostigon | ali1234: i have had enought time, yes. and still done get it fully. | 22:48 |
| ali1234 | brobostigon: even if you know all blender UI, it simply lacks the tools you'd need to make that video | 22:49 |
| === michael is now known as Guest43102 | ||
| brobostigon | ali1234: but i meant, fo that basic editing, noothingmore. | 22:49 |
| ali1234 | yes, there's plenty of video editors for linux | 22:50 |
| ali1234 | motion graphics however is a lot more complex... think of it as photoshop but with videos | 22:50 |
| brobostigon | interesting. | 22:50 |
| === Guest43102 is now known as michael_UK | ||
| michael_UK | really good to know that | 22:51 |
