GeodudeI just upgraded to 11.04, I tried tweaking Unity for like 3 hours and I just couldn't stand it. I switched to 'classic' and everything was working fine. I did some stuff in Compiz and now I can't move my windows. :/07:38
GeodudeEvery time I make a change in Compiz my windows all move up slightly. Soon I won't be able to see my xchat window...07:38
urlin2uGeodude, what release are  you running?07:39
GeodudeI just upgraded to 11.04. It was working fine until I opened Compiz Config Settings Manager and started messing around with that.07:40
GeodudeI'm using classic, not unity.07:43
Geodudeaha. Somehow under Window Management, "Move Window" was disabled.07:43
GeodudePhew!07:43

froqso my audio will eventually go bad after I play music for a certain amount of time... anyone know how to reload the audio driver without rebooting???14:29
geirhaThat depends on the reason for it suddenly failing. You could try  Alt+F2 -> pulseaudio -k14:31
froqgeirha, thz sir!  yeah, idk why it goes bad, it just started like 2 weeks ago... and I have done no changes to my system lol14:31
froqgeirha, thanks!  that fixed it.  I wanted a quick fix for the moment.. lol  I was listening to some good songs and didn't want to stop.14:33
