ibeardsleeyour house?01:56
hadsYeah02:19
hadsI hear yours too.02:19
ibeardsleeyup .. worst part is is that it is not a 'Leaky Home'02:22
ajmitchjust a home that leaks?02:23
ibeardsleesame symptoms, just too old02:24
hadsWe aren't too bad. We have a concrete block retaining wall as part of the basement level. Seems it wasn't sealed properly and it's leaking.02:24
hadsWe have had 300mm of rain in the last week so I guess if it was ever to leak now is the time.02:25
ibeardsleeI have a concrete wall doing the same thing in my garage02:26
ajmitchI'm sure it's nothing compared to the house I used to live in when I was at school - was around 100 years old & the central hallways was covred in buckets or anything that could hold water whenever it rained02:28
ajmitchof course that place got flattened by a digger & a new house built on the site02:30
hadsIt would have been nice if this wall leaked a few months ago when I lined out that wall.02:32
ibeardsleeoh bugger02:32
ajmitchthat is a pain02:32
hadsIndeed. Been in the house for 3 years and /now/ it decides to leak.02:33

hadsajmitch: Quite spacious isn't it.10:19
hadsDid you have to add the IgnoreEDID thing?10:19
ajmitchyes10:25
ajmitchjust added it in the Device section, that one line seemed to be enough10:26
hadsYeah same. Happy with it so far?10:26
ajmitchonly problem I have is the length of the DVI cable, it seems a little too short10:26
hadsYou got a DVI cable? My box didn't have one.10:27
ajmitchcolour is slightly off at the bottom of the screen, but it's only really noticeable on all-white10:27
ajmitchodd, I got a dual-link cable in the box10:27
hadsLuckily I had one here.10:27
hadsI haven't noticed a color issue on mine yet.10:27
ajmitchof course today would be the day my laptop power adapter finally stops working10:28
ajmitchso now the laptop battery is flat10:28
hadsDoh.10:28
ajmitchfrom what I've read it's not uncommon with these HP adapters10:28
ajmitchI should be able to charge it at work, but the battery lasts < 1 hour now. good thing I've got a new laptop on its way10:30
