| MutantTurkey | InHisName: not terribly slow but I want to use it for music production | 15:41 |
| MutantTurkey | that means each slice of sound is uncompressed 64 bit wav... just one guitar track can be a couple hundred megs. | 15:41 |
| MutantTurkey | this server has 2tb of space, so I wanted to use it to host my stuff | 15:41 |

| PennBot | Title: About (at unity.ubuntu.com) | 19:43 |

| biobunsai | oh there a issue I having.. every now and then the video for the icons getgrabbled.. and clue why that is? | 20:11 |
| passstab | http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ | 20:11 |
| PennBot | Title: VideoLAN - Official page for VLC media player, the Open Source video framework! (at www.videolan.org) | 20:11 |
| passstab | what? | 20:11 |
| passstab | i don't understand what you just said | 20:13 |
| biobunsai | the gui gets all pixeled for no good reason out of the blue | 20:13 |
| passstab | the entire gui? | 20:13 |
| biobunsai | pretty much. and and stays that way till I reboot | 20:14 |
| passstab | how do you reboot? | 20:14 |
| biobunsai | log off, restart. | 20:15 |
| passstab | via cli? | 20:15 |
| biobunsai | when its real bad i hard boot. | 20:16 |
| passstab | you should use ctrl-alt-Fn | 20:17 |
| passstab | then login and type sudo reboot | 20:17 |
| passstab | now i'll consider the problem :P | 20:18 |
| passstab | are you using a proprietary graphics driver? | 20:20 |
| biobunsai | I'm using the onboard video.... | 20:20 |
| passstab | open a terminal | 20:21 |
| passstab | and run | 20:21 |
| passstab | lspci -v | grep VGA | 20:21 |
| passstab | paste the output here | 20:22 |
| biobunsai | dumb question.... how did you get the char after the -v? | 20:24 |
| biobunsai | before grep | 20:24 |
| passstab | ahh | 20:25 |
| passstab | i remeber when i had the same problem | 20:25 |
| passstab | shift+backslash | 20:25 |
| passstab | probably | 20:25 |
| passstab | it's called a pipe | 20:26 |
| passstab | and in this case it's being used to direct the output of the first command to be the input for the second | 20:27 |
| biobunsai | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) | 20:27 |
| passstab | good | 20:30 |

| biobunsai | Lol Sorry i been with windows since DOS 3.22.. old habits.. | 20:43 |
| jedijf | for this particular change | 20:43 |
