| jorrik | hello everyone. i know i can use KDE's settings to create shortcuts to open various programs (eg i setup WINDOWS+SPACE to open a konsole connected to a screen session), but i was wondering how to avoid conflict with existing keyboard shortcuts. | 08:11 |
| jorrik | is there a standard that's being used across KDE for shortcuts that need to work regardless of the window? eg ctrl+alt+? or something like that? i can sense that if i just make ctrl+d the shortcut to open dolphin it's going to cause issues with some programs, but how would i know in advance? | 08:12 |
| GinoMan | ok... done | 08:23 |
| GinoMan | windows fixed the filesystem, then installed servicepack 1 | 08:23 |

| robbiethe1st | and or driver | 12:17 |
| TheLastProject | Not really complaining, but I hope to know if it's true or not or if I'm getting colorblind or so | 12:17 |
| TheLastProject | Hmmm, possibly my ATI driver then | 12:18 |
| robbiethe1st | If it | 12:18 |
| robbiethe1st | Both Windows and Linux allow custom color profiles | 12:18 |
| TheLastProject | I don't believe my monitor would have different correction on Linux and Windows | 12:18 |

| TheLastProject | I have the default ones on both | 12:18 |
| robbiethe1st | hm | 12:18 |
| robbiethe1st | well, use the color-correction feature to "fix" it? | 12:18 |

| Taggnostr2 | on my notebook I sometimes get a popup that says "wireless hardware disabled" immediately followed by "wireless hardware enabled", this might happen even a few times for minutes, or work fine for hours, do you know what could be the cause? | 16:08 |
| Taggnostr2 | the switch to turn wireless on/off has some problems, however the hardware gets disabled/enabled even if I'm not touching the pc at all, and once the problem went away for a while after a reboot | 16:10 |
| Taggnostr2 | also when it says "disabled" it always get enabled immediately, so I don't think it's switch going out of place | 16:11 |
| Taggnostr2 | the switch* | 16:12 |
| === domenicio is now known as domenicoio___ | ||
| === domenicoio___ is now known as domenicio | ||
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: There are some internal wireless cards which are actually USB, like Realtek 8187 for instance. In those cases when the device is not being used for a period of time, the system puts it into auto-suspend | 16:13 |
| Taggnostr2 | genii-around, it happens even while I'm using it | 16:14 |
| Taggnostr2 | fwiw the light on the switch goes off too | 16:15 |
| OerHeks | maybe it is not disabling your hardware, just lost connection ? | 16:15 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: When it disconnects/reconnects, is there some message being added to dmesg output? | 16:15 |
| Taggnostr2 | the popup says "wireless hardware disabled", and I had the same problem with different connections | 16:16 |
| Taggnostr2 | genii-around, let me check | 16:16 |
| Taggnostr2 | there are some messages about high speed USB devices, not sure if they are related | 16:17 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: Perhaps to pastebin | 16:21 |
| Taggnostr2 | genii-around, I selected "sleep" from the menu, and when I logged in again I saw the disabled/enabled message again, and in dmesg, after "restarting tasks... done" there is: "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready" "usb 4-1: USB disconnect, address 12" "btusb_intr_complete: hci0 urb ffff.... failed to resubmit (19)" then two more messages that says the same thing but with bulk instead of intr, "btusb_send_frame: hci0 urb fff... submission | 16:24 |
| Taggnostr2 | failed" "usb 4-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 13" | 16:24 |
| Taggnostr2 | the previous messages are similar, and the address keep increasing | 16:24 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: Looks symptomatic of what I explained earlier, computer puts USB into suspend automatically and network goes out | 16:25 |
| Taggnostr2 | is there some place where I can set this and tell it to always keep it enabled? | 16:25 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: It takes a bit of poking around to find what usb device it is usually, but after that you can set the autosuspend value to be 0 in the /etc/network/interfaces file as a post-up command for that adapter | 16:27 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: In my box for instance, i have to do: post-up echo 0 > /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/2-1/power/autosuspend for my external usb network adapter for it to stay up | 16:28 |
| Taggnostr2 | in interfaces I only have the loopback | 16:29 |
| Taggnostr2 | before it used to work fine, just lately I started having this problem | 16:31 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: Please use the pastebin to show results of the commands: lsusb and: cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb4/id* ..according to your "usb 4-1: USB disconnect, address 12" message the adapter should likely be on the usb4 bus. But we need make sure by finding the proper idProduct and idVendor codes for it in the usb4 directory and then comparing that to what lsusb tells us it should be | 16:41 |

| * OerHeks too | 16:51 | |
| apachelogger | macer1: feel free to, but don't expect any help :P | 16:51 |

| BluesKaj | macer1, it's a matter of taste , we don't encourage those kinds of statements ..even about windows :) | 17:00 |
| macer1 | BluesKaj, I know...but Qt have animations everywhere. This is the point. | 17:01 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: Please try: sudo modprobe -r iwl3945 && sudo modprobe iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1 ..and then see if the connection keeps dropping or is more stable | 17:01 |
| BluesKaj | to me gnome has always been a bit too cartooney for my taste...if Qt wants to emulate gnome then i'll be looking at anew desktop env real quick , macer1 | 17:03 |
| Taggnostr2 | genii-around, FATAL: Module disable_hw_scan=1 not found. | 17:03 |
| macer1 | BluesKaj, what do you mean by that? | 17:04 |
| BluesKaj | guess I should say if Qt devs start loading gnome / gtk looks into kde ...that's the best way I can express it | 17:09 |
| szal | BluesKaj: ever seen KDE2 or early KDE3? ;) | 17:09 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: OK. So: kdesudo kate /etc/modrobe.d/iwl3945.conf and a line there: options iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1 then save, and: sudo modprobe iwl3945 | 17:09 |
| BluesKaj | yeah szal ..I'd rather forget | 17:09 |
| Taggnostr2 | genii-around, the file doesn't exist, should I create it? | 17:11 |
| BluesKaj | I've been with kubuntu since around 5.04/5.10 ...I've forgotten which , szal | 17:12 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: Yes. The idea is that option will be used each time the module loads. | 17:12 |
| Taggnostr2 | genii-around, ok, I did the modprobe without errors, now I guess I'll have to wait and see if it gets better | 17:12 |
| * szal has been on KDE since Knoppix 3.3 and early Kanotix releases (late 2003/early 2004) | 17:13 | |
| szal | BluesKaj: as for *buntu, I believe 5.10 (Breezy) was the first Kubuntu release | 17:14 |
| genii-around | Taggnostr2: OK. Perhaps occasionally to dmesg|tail and see if it is still doing connect/disconnect | 17:14 |
| Taggnostr2 | genii-around, ok, thanks a lot in the meanwhile! | 17:14 |
| * OerHeks is fresh since 11.04, and Unity is the 2nd best thing that happened to Kubuntu | 17:15 | |
| szal | BluesKaj: I had used 5.04 for a bit back then, and I used Ubuntu, indicating that Kubuntu wasn't there yet | 17:15 |
| BluesKaj | szal, my first linux experience was knoppix as well , but it was the live cd which didn't recognize my hardware and then tried it on a 233mhz pc with 128mb ram that I rescued from the trash ,at work ..that'when I was able to concentrate on the linux experience | 17:16 |
| szal | around that time too I remember trying FC1 and being totally appalled at Gnome | 17:18 |
| BluesKaj | 5.04 with kde , if I remember right ...but let'snot turn this into some kind of pi**ing contest | 17:18 |
| szal | heheh | 17:18 |
| BluesKaj | but kde was rough looking , gnome was strange to me ...coming from windows 3.1 and '95\ | 17:20 |

| marquee_ | hello! i got a question: I got a sandybridge mobile processor, and was wondering if I should get the 64 bit kubuntu or the x86 version? | 17:29 |
| macer1 | of course x64 marquee_ :) | 17:30 |
| marquee_ | are all the compatability issues fixed? | 17:30 |
| marquee_ | like for example, I was trying to get yahoo video/voice to work on my other laptop (also kubuntu), and it had issues with jasper saying that it was the wrong version | 17:31 |
| marquee_ | is it worth the 64bit upgrade? | 17:31 |
| jmichaelx | marquee_: i have been using 64 bit for a few years now, and have had only very good experiences with 64 versus 32 bit... only exception being some annoyances with adobe flash | 17:31 |
| DarthFrog | Annoyances with Adobe Flash are hardly limited to 64 bit! | 17:32 |

| jmichaelx | marquee_: yea, there are a few possible remedies for the flash issues... it isn't a huge deal | 17:33 |
| marquee_ | the only issue i got left thats holding me back from installing 64bit on my new system | 17:33 |
| marquee_ | is that whole video chat thing on yahoo | 17:33 |
| jmichaelx | yea, i have read about that addon, but have not used it yet | 17:33 |
| marquee_ | it works wonders, jmichaelx | 17:33 |
| marquee_ | do any of you guys use the yahoo messenger service? | 17:34 |
| OerHeks | IA32-libs solves a lot of issues | 17:34 |
| jmichaelx | what have you been using for yahoo video chat? | 17:34 |
| jmichaelx | yea | 17:34 |
| macer1 | OerHeks, ia-32 is now deprecated. | 17:34 |
| macer1 | btw | 17:34 |
| marquee_ | what do you mean>? i use it to talk to my family | 17:34 |
| marquee_ | i tried to troubleshoot myself, some say its a kopete thing | 17:35 |
| jmichaelx | marquee_: no, i mean what client have you been using in linux for yahoo video chat? | 17:35 |
| marquee_ | kopete+jasper | 17:35 |
| jmichaelx | ahh, kopete... i have never gotten along very well with kopete | 17:35 |
| macer1 | From oneiric, there is no ia32-libs, I think you just install it by apt-get install libwhatever:i386 :D | 17:35 |
| marquee_ | what do you suggest? | 17:35 |
| marquee_ | macer1, everytime I try to do that, it says wrong version (i386, system: amd64 | 17:36 |
| marquee_ | or somethign along those lines | 17:36 |
| jmichaelx | marquee_: i would no know for sure.... there is gyachi (whether or not it is still being maintained, i don't know)... it could also be that empathy can do yahoo video chat, but i'm not sure | 17:36 |
| macer1 | marquee_, that works in oneiric only | 17:36 |
| marquee_ | whats oneiric? | 17:37 |
| macer1 | !11.10 | 17:37 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) will be the fifteenth release of Ubuntu. Codename announcement here: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/?p=646 Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 17:37 |
| macer1 | I only say for future, there will no be ia32-libs in 11.10 ;) | 17:37 |
| marquee_ | ohhhhh the one coming out in a few weeks? | 17:37 |
| marquee_ | so definitely get the 64bit version...(well, sounds like they leave no choice in the matter lol) | 17:38 |
| macer1 | marass, yes | 17:38 |
| macer1 | yes and yes | 17:38 |
| marquee_ | k will do | 17:38 |
| marquee_ | thanks for all the info guys, i'm gonna get it | 17:39 |
| marquee_ | btw, I tried running yahoo messenger in wine as well | 17:39 |
| marquee_ | that lead to epic fail X.X | 17:39 |
| marquee_ | for my messenger needs, I've been stuck using skype | 17:39 |
| marquee_ | since video chat works fine in kopete for skype | 17:39 |
| marquee_ | but it would've been nice to get a working y-messenger | 17:39 |
| marquee_ | l8erz :) | 17:39 |
| jmichaelx | marquee_: you should look into gyachi... it is not in the repos, but if you check the forums, you will likely be able to find a working .deb for it | 17:40 |
| marquee_ | cool I'll do that jmichaelx | 17:40 |
| jmichaelx | marquee_: it is the closest thing to yahoo messenger that exists for linux | 17:40 |
| marquee_ | alright, will do | 17:40 |
| BluesKaj | !multiarch | 17:40 |
| marquee_ | I'll be back if I run into anymore questions :P | 17:40 |
| OerHeks | chromium has a plugin voor yahoo messenger, not an option ? | 17:40 |
| marquee_ | oerheks, u caught me as I was leaving :( | 17:41 |
| jmichaelx | OerHeks: does it do video chat? chatrroms? | 17:41 |
| jmichaelx | chatrooms* | 17:41 |
| marquee_ | but I tried it, it supports only text messaging | 17:41 |
| marquee_ | but not video chat | 17:41 |
| marquee_ | it has an invite to conference option, but the video chat is broken :/ | 17:41 |
| OerHeks | video i don't kno, you could check it > https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hlbmghiihlelkhbccpinfjdfmeclcmfc?hc=search&hcp=main | 17:42 |
| OerHeks | ah | 17:42 |
| jmichaelx | gyachi usually works for video chat, and chatrooms... although the audio for the chatrooms usually doesn't work for me | 17:42 |
| marquee_ | anyways i gotta go, "I'll BE BACK!" :P | 17:42 |
| jmichaelx | adios! | 17:42 |
| marquee_ | thanks for the info guys | 17:42 |
| OerHeks | have fun | 17:42 |
| BlaXpirit | There are many new projects around KDE desktop, but they are all moving so slowly: Muon, Telepathy, rekonq... I'm looking forward to using those, but they don't have enough functions (and I don't even know how to install Telepathy and what it actually is). Any news? | 17:43 |
| BluesKaj | those of you interested in multiarch (multi architecture support ) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec | 17:44 |
| BlaXpirit | for example, I get some weird error in Muon when refreshing, rekonq doesn't have pinned tabs and extension support (which has been promised over a year ago) | 17:45 |

| chirag_d_gr8 | how to reduce brightness of laptop? | 17:48 |
| BlaXpirit | chirag_d_gr8: what's that laptop called? | 17:48 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | i have hhp pavi;ion g6 series laptop | 17:48 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | hp pavilion* | 17:48 |
| BlaXpirit | Fn+F6 or Fn+Left | 17:48 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | nothing happened | 17:49 |
| BlaXpirit | OK. Run this in terminal: | 17:49 |
| BlaXpirit | lsmod | grep ^i915 | 17:49 |
| BlaXpirit | any output? | 17:49 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | yes | 17:50 |
| BlaXpirit | ? | 17:50 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | a coloured i915 | 17:50 |
| BlaXpirit | O_o coloured? | 17:50 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | and after few spaces 514985 2 | 17:50 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | red coloured | 17:50 |
| BlaXpirit | great. so you probably have integrated Intel graphics card, which doesn't have brightness support, just like me. | 17:50 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | i have ati dedicated graphic card :( | 17:51 |
| BlaXpirit | ati?? | 17:51 |
| BlaXpirit | weird. | 17:51 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | and lspci shows ati 6470 too in vga adaptors | 17:51 |
| BlaXpirit | umm ok. you may find this useful: http://askubuntu.com/questions/57236/ | 17:52 |
| BlaXpirit | you could try the things listed in the answer, or see my answer below if nothing works | 17:52 |
| BlaXpirit | in the question* first | 17:52 |
| BlaXpirit | sry. | 17:52 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | how to open this website? do i have to type this? open in new browser doesn't work | 17:53 |
| doeladministrato | I didn't expect so many people connected... that's even better | 17:54 |
| doeladministrato | I need help (obviously) | 17:54 |
| BlaXpirit | chirag_d_gr8: this shouldn't be too hard to type: askubuntu.com/q/57236 | 17:55 |
| doeladministrato | recently installed Kubuntu and looks great, but, I'm trying to have flash to see youtube | 17:55 |
| doeladministrato | install skype | 17:55 |
| doeladministrato | and install dropbox | 17:55 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | BlaXpirit: sry for such a stupid ques | 17:56 |
| doeladministrato | seems like having the 64 version is trouble | 17:56 |
| BlaXpirit | so try if any of these files exist: /etc/X11/xorg.conf , /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness ; and try this thing in terminal: xbacklight -set 4 | 17:57 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | did not work :( | 17:58 |
| BlaXpirit | do those files exist?? | 17:59 |
| BluesKaj | doeladministrato, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec | 17:59 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | file does not exist | 17:59 |
| BlaXpirit | chirag_d_gr8: last thing that might work: | 17:59 |
| BlaXpirit | sudo setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=4 | 17:59 |
| doeladministrato | BluesKaj, thanks, will check that out and be back | 18:00 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | command not found | 18:00 |
| BlaXpirit | does it say you can install it? if yes, do it. | 18:01 |
| BlaXpirit | if nothing of the above works, we have 2 more difficult paths to try :( | 18:01 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | no it asked for nothing just handed me control for next command for execution | 18:01 |
| BlaXpirit | strange | 18:01 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | life is not easy in linux :) | 18:02 |
| BlaXpirit | chirag_d_gr8: OK, i just read that the fix i found also applies to some Radeon stuff | 18:02 |
| BlaXpirit | i'm afraid you'll have to do this: http://askubuntu.com/q/57236#58088 | 18:02 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | ok... | 18:02 |
| BlaXpirit | if you encounter any problems, drop me a message. | 18:03 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | ok | 18:04 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | for 10 i set my brightness to 5 | 18:06 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | but no change.... | 18:06 |
| BlaXpirit | what? | 18:06 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | i mean i reduced my brigghtness from 10 to 5 but i notice no change | 18:07 |
| BlaXpirit | where? how? | 18:07 |
| BlaXpirit | you haven't done the thin i sent a link to, have you? | 18:07 |
| BlaXpirit | it takes some time o_o | 18:07 |
| BlaXpirit | read carefully | 18:07 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | from the website u asked me to read, i followed a command | 18:07 |
| BlaXpirit | just look at my answer at the very bottom | 18:08 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | i set my brightness from 10 to 5 but i notice no change.... | 18:08 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | ok i do again | 18:08 |
| BlaXpirit | it starts with "1. Install linux-kamal-mjgbacklight..." | 18:08 |
| maco2 | kamal? you sure it's not kernel? | 18:09 |
| BlaXpirit | dunno, it seems like some patch to kernel | 18:09 |
| BlaXpirit | worked well for me. | 18:09 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | i followed advice of the guy posted just above that postwho | 18:09 |
| BlaXpirit | no, no, it's not good. didn't work for me as well | 18:09 |
| BlaXpirit | look at my own answer.. with 2 upvotes | 18:10 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | another thing before i have to leave and go to sleep, my core temperature is 62 celsius but in windows it is 50 celsius. is this normal? | 18:11 |
| BlaXpirit | i don't think so :( | 18:12 |
| BlaXpirit | i've got 48 or so | 18:12 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | will kubuntu burn my devices with 10 degree higher? | 18:12 |
| BlaXpirit | stupid hp >_> | 18:12 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | :( | 18:12 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | so what is recommended for me? should i discontinue kubuntu to save my hardware? | 18:13 |
| BlaXpirit | hey people, why don't you help this guy? i'm not really sure about this temperature stuff, got my own laptop just some weeks ago | 18:13 |
| macer1 | Windows is overheating my hardware until it shuts down. No problem with ubuntu :D | 18:13 |
| BlaXpirit | well, i dunno. don't put the laptop on your lap...................... | 18:14 |
| BlaXpirit | sounds weird, huh | 18:14 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | i do not care about my lap :D, i care to make my laptop last longer | 18:14 |
| BlaXpirit | no, no. lap blocks heat coming out of the laptop. | 18:15 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | ventilators are in the air so no problem | 18:15 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | moreover, even if i try to adjust brightness graphically, my brightness bar jumps back to maximum | 18:16 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | is this linux os bug? | 18:16 |
| BlaXpirit | not "bug" | 18:16 |
| BlaXpirit | just stupid vendors not providing drivers for linux. | 18:16 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | so is it possible to fix it? | 18:16 |
| BlaXpirit | yes, possible, in the answer i wrote, and gave link to you. | 18:16 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | those **** hp guys say they do not support linux :( | 18:17 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | i check out that link | 18:17 |
| BlaXpirit | well, i had lenovo, didnt work as well. new hardware, u know.. | 18:17 |
| BlaXpirit | doesn't overheat though. | 18:17 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | i bought this laptop to use linux only and my hard luck :(. so i have to bear with it or use other distros? | 18:18 |
| BlaXpirit | i told u, the brightness can be fixed. about overheating, look somewhere around the internet, and maybe ask somewhere else. | 18:18 |
| chirag_d_gr8 | ok thx by the way | 18:18 |

| and1bm | hi, I just downloaded the kubuntu-10.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso from http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download, but got a wrong md5sum, tried again and still the (same) wrong md5sum. | 18:48 |
| genii-around | and1bm: Are you using the md5sums from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes to compare against? | 18:49 |
| OerHeks | did you use right numer ? > d3096f32c260baa9a2d474980aa6b851 *kubuntu-10.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso look at the 3 in 10.04.3 | 18:51 |
| and1bm | I get 12194d48847543717d3b6856d8fb2914 but it should be d3096f32c260baa9a2d474980aa6b851 | 18:51 |
| and1bm | try wget http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/lucid/kubuntu-10.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso | 18:52 |
| and1bm | md5sum kubuntu-10.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso | 18:52 |
| OerHeks | how did you download it, dl or torrent ? | 18:54 |
| and1bm | oh sorry I found the error: I checked the old iso, the new one kubuntu-10.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso.1 is fine. sorry! | 18:54 |
| OerHeks | oh oke, continue | 18:55 |
| and1bm | the first one must have been spoiled (downloaded with firefox) but the second one (wget) is fine. sorry for the noise. | 18:57 |
| GinoMan | how do you change the permissions of a file that's owned by gino:gino and has "-r-xr--r--" permissions | 19:20 |
| ArchangelSe7en | I suppose you're logged as "gino" ? | 19:21 |
| GinoMan | yes | 19:21 |

| macer1 | how can i switch to kde without exiting gnome | 19:24 |
| macer1 | i mean, exit gnome | 19:24 |
| macer1 | but without logout | 19:24 |
| OerHeks | i think that switch is not possible ? | 19:25 |
| GinoMan | .... it doesn't work | 19:25 |
| GinoMan | # chmod 777 -r /home/gino/.gvfs doesn't work.... root can do anything though | 19:27 |
| GinoMan | is there a user more root than root | 19:30 |
| OerHeks | you try to resolve an encrypted home ? | 19:32 |
| DarthFrog | Superroot? :-) | 19:32 |
| DarthFrog | GinoMan: Look around, see if you see someone with a big red "S" on his chest. :-) | 19:33 |
| mutley89 | GinoMan: chmod 777 -r isn't | 19:38 |
| mutley89 | GinoMan: chmod 777 -r isn't an option according to man page. -R for recursive | 19:39 |
| genii-around | macer1: Might want to look into xnest | 19:42 |
| macer1 | genii-around, ? | 19:42 |
| genii-around | macer1: With xnest, you can run an entirely different desktop environment inside of a window on your current desktop. | 19:45 |
| dennister | anyone know how to do a low-level format of a drive? | 20:06 |

| dennister | genii-around: hi pal! long time no chat | 20:10 |
| dennister | genii-around: can we pm about this prob? it has a history and I don't know if it's worth any more trouble | 20:12 |

| BarkingFish | Does anyone know how I turn off those annoying little popup thingies which appear when I hover on something open in my Task manager? | 23:34 |
| BarkingFish | I've searched for everything obvious, and can't seem to find them anywhere, tooltips or whatever they're called. I want them off because they keep sticking open - I hover on something, the popup appears, but doesn't go away when I move my mouse off. | 23:35 |
| GTRsdk | BarkingFish: can you kill the process or remove the applet? | 23:35 |
| BarkingFish | No. | 23:36 |
