[00:00] <ryanbrunswick> Hey. Anyone using Xubuntu for audio production?
[00:16] <xubuntu403> Hi I have a problem installing xubuntu 12.04. I installed from the live cd, and then it asked to do updates, and I allowed it to install them. Then it said that it needed to reboot, so I did, but now it comes up to the grub prompt. No idea what to do
[00:22] <nantou> what are the grub options?
[00:23] <nantou> select a previous kernel?
[00:23] <hhhzzzarn> what is the default disk utility called in xubuntu?
[00:23] <hhhzzzarn> I want to format a usb but do not know the name of the application.
[00:23] <xubuntu403> I don't know the options, it is just a  GRUB>  command prompt
[00:24] <hhhzzzarn> search grub options online
[00:25] <nantou> xubuntu403, have yo tried #grub?
[00:25] <xubuntu403> is this a normal thing? I have literally been using xubuntu for an hour. How could I have messed it up?
[00:25] <hhhzzzarn> what happened again?
[00:25] <nantou> xubuntu403, fresh installation? partition?
[00:25] <hhhzzzarn> I just joined, copy and paste.
[00:25] <hhhzzzarn> xubuntu403, what is your problem, copy and paste.
[00:26] <xubuntu403> yes, completely fresh, all defaults
[00:26] <nantou> i suggest you join grub and ask there
[00:28] <xubuntu403> hhhzzzarn: I have a problem installing xubuntu 12.04. I installed from the live cd, and then it asked to do updates, and I allowed it to install them. Then it said that it needed to reboot, so I did, but now it comes up to the grub prompt. No idea what to do
[00:28] <hhhzzzarn> grub prompt as in what?
[00:28] <hhhzzzarn> grub boot menu?
[00:29] <hhhzzzarn> my options are xubuntu, other xubuntu options, and windows 7
[00:29] <xubuntu403> no not a menu, a GRUB> prompt
[00:29] <hhhzzzarn> ok
[00:29] <Unit193> You have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 ?   It has a section on that.
[00:29] <hhhzzzarn> fresh install, easier :)
[00:30] <xubuntu403> I will try installing again, but this install is as fresh as it gets... maybe it will magically work next time
[00:30] <xubuntu403> thanks
[03:53] <mrmcgibby> Isn't there a setting somewhere that allows me to have different monitors be able to switch workspaces separately?

[05:45] <vadbars> hi! Does anyone know how to set the screen resolution 1366x768 with the video driver SIS671? I have xubuntu 20.10 on a laptop asus K50C
[05:46] <suttiwit> vadbars, it works fine on samsung .1366x768
[05:47] <vadbars> Do you have a driver for this video?
[05:47] <suttiwit> no need for drivers
[05:47] <suttiwit> :|
[05:48] <vadbars> On my laptop needed, unfortunately. :(
[05:48] <vadbars> *xubuntu 12.10

[09:10] <wcapio> hi folks, does anybody know how to use unicode in a terminal on xubuntu? my gnome terminal had a unicode option, can't seem to find it on xterm
[09:11] <well_laid_lawn> I don't think xterm does unicode
[09:12] <well_laid_lawn> that's why urxvt was made
[09:12] <well_laid_lawn> or call it rxvt-unicode
[09:13] <wcapio> I installed rxvt-unicode... how can I make it my default terminal? just change the keyboard shortcut?
[09:13] <well_laid_lawn> there's the default term in xubuntu which is nice
[09:13] <wcapio> ? default term does not do unicode, right?
[09:14] <well_laid_lawn> afaik it does
[09:14] <well_laid_lawn> seems fine here
[09:14] <well_laid_lawn> xterm isn't the default
[09:14] <wcapio> hmm... I'm on a fairly default installation, though...
[09:15] <wcapio> terminal emulator being the default one
[09:16] <ferni> xterm supports utf-8
[09:16] <ferni> and so doest the default xubuntu terminal xfce4-terminal
[09:17] <wcapio> ferni, does xfce4-terminal display unicode or only ??????
[09:17] <wcapio> I mean only question marks
[09:19] <ferni> should display correctly if the font has thos characters
[09:19] <wcapio> aaaah
[09:19] <wcapio> might be a font thing, let me check
[09:19] <FounderOf420> good evening fellas
[09:20] <wcapio> courrier new is a unicode font, right?
[09:21] <FounderOf420> theres a little quirk in my fresh xubu install. when i login and my DE loads, my partitions and attached devices  appear twice on the desktop and in the file tree
[09:22] <wcapio> ferni, unicode font does not change the ?????'s
[09:22] <FounderOf420> if i wait a few seconds and then f5 the desktop, the duuplicates will disappear. just wondering what might be causing this
[09:23] <FounderOf420> there are no noticeable problems with anything but it does throw my icon arrangement out of whack every time i login
[09:25] <wcapio> well_laid_lawn, how can I have the emulator (or guake fi) work with urxvt rather than xterm?
[09:25] <FounderOf420> i did notice that soon as the desktop loads, the duplicate icons will have the default 'device' icon that you would see in /dev/. and then it quickly changes to the standard hard disk icon. anybody have any thoughts or experience with something like this?
[09:27] <well_laid_lawn> wcapio: check out exo-preferred for setting the defaults
[09:29] <wcapio> well_laid_lawn, nice one!
[09:29] <wcapio> in fact I still had the gnome-terminal installed...
[09:29] <wcapio> found it by looking at preferred programs...
[09:29] <wcapio> nice
[09:30] <wcapio> it allows me to choose character encoding...
[09:30] <wcapio> comes in handy when working with non-european languages
[09:30] <wcapio> well_laid_lawn, tnx
[09:30] <well_laid_lawn> cheers :)

[13:54] <cereal> At least there is a work around ;)

[13:54] <cereal> yea, I was using alacarte heh
[13:55] <cereal> not sure how the bug creeped in but such is life
[13:55] <GridCube> yeah, ive heard of this before
[13:55] <GridCube> you need to manually edit the .desktop files
[13:55] <cereal> actually alacarte did that fine for me
[13:56] <cereal> it was the  ~/.config/menus/applications.menu needed to be named xfce-applications.menu
[13:56] <cereal> then just a quick xfdesktop --reload and done
[13:57] <GridCube> this is... a serious problem
[13:59] <cereal> both myself and a coworker have the same bug
[14:09] <baizon> will thunar 1.5.1 will get in the official repos in quantal?

[17:05] <xubuntu600> Hello everyone! first time here. Please I would like to ask a question, I am trying to instal keep note in xubuntu with this command dpkg -i keepnote...etc.deb
[17:05] <xubuntu600> but it gives this error:
[17:05] <xubuntu600>  keepnote depends on python-central (>= 0.5.6); however:   Package python-central is not installed. dpkg: error processing keepnote (--install):  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[17:05] <baizon> xubuntu600: now type this in your terminal: sudo apt-get install -f
[17:06] <xubuntu600> i did it
[17:06] <baizon> and?
[17:06] <xubuntu600> it is doing some thing right now.. thank you
[17:07] <baizon> xubuntu600: this will fix it :)
[17:07] <xubuntu600> unbelivable it gives no error now, thank you!
[17:07] <baizon> np
[17:09] <xubuntu600> I am so impressed! I have used keepnote in winxp and totally love it! I first time installed xubuntu today and I needed keepnote so much. Now keepnote is there in the menu and I am already using it! Thanks again, bye!

[17:43] <ner0x> How do I change what user automatically logs in from command line?
[17:43] <ner0x> For the UI I mean.
[18:16] <Rulan> so I'm trying to install Linux, first time ever.
[18:16] <Rulan> and I'm already confused.
[18:17] <unheeding> what confuses you?
[18:17] <Rulan> something about partitions
[18:18] <Rulan> trying to install 12.10 alongside Windows
[18:18] <unheeding> well, first what you want to do is set aside some space on your hard drive
[18:18] <Rulan> keeps saying "no root file system is defined", and I'm not really sure what that means.
[18:18] <unheeding> Windows has a partition editor, I assume you're using Win7?
[18:19] <Rulan> XP
[18:19] <unheeding> okay...
[18:20] <Rulan> should I create a clean partition in windows first, then try the install again?
[18:20] <unheeding> it's best to leave it as unallocated space
[18:20] <unheeding> the root file system is mounted at /, it's basically like the C: drive in windows
[18:21] <Rulan> I think I'll create the partition first, rather than messing around and trying to do it while installing.
[18:22] <unheeding> what i do is make a 20GB filesystem for linux, a swap area that's equal to the amount of RAM, and then use my windows partition to store my media
[18:22] <Rulan> swap space is like a page file?
[18:22] <unheeding> yeah, it's an extension of your RAM on the hard drive
[18:23] <Rulan> I'll go make the partition in windows first.
[18:23] <Rulan> thanks for the advice.
[18:24] <unheeding> no problem
[18:27] <majsza> [solution] Duplicated partitions might be shown at Thunar sidebar and the desktop

[19:15] <Complex> Hey peeps, is there a tweak of tool so that programs minimized go to the launcher instead of the taskbar like osx?
[19:17] <baizon> Complex: yes, you can use cairo dock, awn or docky :)

[19:56] <Papa-Smurf> Hi guys
[19:56] <Papa-Smurf> is it worth to upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10?
[19:57] <Unit193> Depends, I'd typically look at the release notes and see what's going on.  Xfce 4.10 is in there.
[19:57] <apm1> no, it is although worth to switch to debian though :p
[19:58] <Papa-Smurf> Unit193,  Xfce 4.10 is a plus but what about the 3.5 kernel?
[20:00] <WalterN> oh
[20:00] <Unit193> Papa-Smurf: Sure, there's that FS bug, but the idea is normal use doesn't trigger it, and I'm sure a fix will be out soon if it isn't already.
[20:00] <Unit193> !notes
[20:01] <WalterN> so... when I add my ethernet printer, the thing wont print with my new 12.10 install...
[20:01] <Papa-Smurf> Unit193, where i can read about that FS bug you say?
[20:01] <Rulan> I managed to blind myself to about 90% of my hard drive space
[20:02] <WalterN> oh thats new
[20:02] <Rulan> all I can access via xubuntu is the 20gb partition that it's installed on, not the other 480gb
[20:02] <unheeding> you'll have to mount it
[20:02] <Rulan> okay?
[20:02] <Unit193> http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTIxNDQ  patched two days ago.
[20:02] <unheeding> there's a good program called pysdm, but it's not in the main repositories
[20:03] <Unit193> Papa-Smurf: ^
[20:03] <Rulan> righto
[20:04] <unheeding> http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=pysdm  the precise package works in quantal
[20:04] <unheeding> but first you must install the dependencies
[20:05] <Papa-Smurf> well i can see in the release notes it is planed to migrate to Python 3 :)
[20:05] <Papa-Smurf> thanks Unit193
[20:06] <WalterN> for some reason now there are two printer options, wasent when I first added my printer
[20:06] <WalterN> one of them works, the other does not.. *shrug*
[20:07]  * WalterN goes back to doing things
[20:07] <Rulan> so I have to install all the packages related to psydm first?
[20:08] <WalterN> http://mylittlefacewhen.com/f/3262/ lurk mode
[20:08] <unheeding> yup
[20:08] <unheeding> ponies, in this chat!? :D
[20:09] <Papa-Smurf> hey
[20:09] <Papa-Smurf> how is it the Lubuntu version? is it stable? ?
[20:10] <Rulan> I must be doing this wrong
[20:10] <WalterN> unheeding: they kind of happen all over everywhere... nowhere is safe these days.
[20:16] <subman> Could anyone help me setup printing over the internet?
[20:17] <WalterN> subman: probably the same as intranet printing, only probably just have to open the ports up on your router (if you have one)
[20:18] <subman> yes, but how do you actually add it?  What is the internet address?  Just my http address of the server?
[20:18] <WalterN> the address would be whatismyip.com
[20:19] <subman> yes, I understand that.
[20:19] <WalterN> what does your network look like?
[20:19] <subman> In the 'Add a Printer' dialog which do I use?  ipp, ipps, https?
[20:19] <subman> I have port 631 open on my router here at the server site
[20:20] <WalterN> oh.. hmm
[20:20] <subman> yeah, the mechanics are easy, but those pesky settings are not.
[20:20] <subman> I tried Find Network Printer and it did not find anything with just my domain name
[20:21] <WalterN> lemme look at my networked printer settings
[20:21] <subman> This is easy over local network
[20:21] <WalterN> yeah :P
[20:22] <WalterN> I donno... never went across the internet before
[20:22] <subman> I did successfully a few years ago.  My memory is not good for that long!
[20:22] <WalterN> I know! set up a windows 95 machine and share printer over the net, and use samba printing \o/
[20:23] <subman> lol
[20:24] <WalterN> :(sorry, I really dont know..)
[20:25] <subman> I cannot actually find anything on the internet that shows printing over the internet.  Tons of local network setups.
[20:25] <Papa-Smurf> subman
[20:25] <Papa-Smurf> what are you trying to do?
[20:25] <subman> Papa-Smurf, set up printing over the internet.
[20:25] <Papa-Smurf> connecting a printer installed in a windows machine?
[20:25] <Papa-Smurf> where is the printer?
[20:25] <subman> NOOOOOOOOOOOO
[20:25] <subman> Printer is on the machine I'm on right now.
[20:26] <Papa-Smurf> then Linux, isn't it?
[20:26] <subman> Yup.  Xubuntu
[20:26] <Papa-Smurf> then
[20:26] <Papa-Smurf> you can do it with cups
[20:26] <subman> Yes, I have the server setup and the router forwarding 631
[20:27] <Papa-Smurf> did you have a look at the Admin Tools?
[20:27] <subman> Where, server machine?
[20:28] <Papa-Smurf> of course
[20:28] <subman> Which Admin Tools?
[20:29] <Papa-Smurf> http://localhost:631/
[20:29] <Papa-Smurf> that is the control pannel of your printing server
[20:31] <Papa-Smurf> after i check my printer was configured in the admin tab
[20:32] <Papa-Smurf> i just went to my windows 7 machine
[20:32] <subman> Yes but does setting 'Publish shared printers...' and 'Allow printing from the Internet' in the 'Printing' system settings not set this all up?
[20:32] <Papa-Smurf> yes
[20:33] <subman> Then it should be setup now.
[20:33] <Papa-Smurf> Allow printing from the internet
[20:33] <subman> For servign
[20:33] <subman> Right
[20:33] <Papa-Smurf> and copy the name of your printer there
[20:33] <Papa-Smurf> then go to windows
[20:33] <subman> I have not windows machines!
[20:33] <Papa-Smurf> and set a web printer
[20:33] <subman> The other machine is also Ubuntu
[20:34] <subman> Ubuntu 10.04 actually.
[20:35] <Papa-Smurf> in my case i have a xubuntu server serving a bunch of windows terminals
[20:35] <subman> Right, mine is a xubuntu machine with the printer.  An Ubuntu machine at a remote location wanting to access this printer over the internet
[20:36] <Papa-Smurf> but i think that for the Ubuntu case you just have to go to System>Administration>Printing>New ... and put the URL of your printer when it ask
[20:36] <micapp> i am a newbie. how can i record a message using a microphone on gnu/linux?
[20:36] <subman> Which protocol?  ipp, https, ipp14, ipps?
[20:36] <WalterN> micapp: yeah, just use audacity
[20:37] <subman> And what url?  Just my url (for example sandowne.dlinkddns.com)?
[20:37] <Papa-Smurf> no
[20:38] <subman> This is where I'm stuck
[20:39] <Papa-Smurf> mine was something like https://servername:631/printers/nameoftheprinter
[20:39] <Rulan> still trying to figure out how to install Psydm
[20:40] <subman> Yeah not sure where to find that path
[20:40] <Papa-Smurf> but you have to know first in which protocol you are sharing the printer
[20:40] <Papa-Smurf> you can see that in the administration panel
[20:40] <Papa-Smurf> and the name of the printer as well
[20:40] <subman> Very confusing panel to me.  Hard to find my way.
[20:41] <Papa-Smurf> I learnt how to configure it from google
[20:41] <subman> Ah, found it I think!
[20:42] <Papa-Smurf> and then play around
[20:44] <Papa-Smurf> but i didn't have to modify any file /etc/cups/cupsd.conf  or something like this....
[20:44] <subman> No, just trying it now....
[20:44] <Papa-Smurf> Rulan
[20:44] <Papa-Smurf> Rulan what is Psydm??
[20:48] <Papa-Smurf> subman try to find if you are sharing your printer through ipp
[20:48] <subman> Yeah, looking for that information now.
[20:49] <Rulan> trying to get root permission in order to change my partitions, what's the easy way to do it?
[20:49] <Papa-Smurf> then you will have to set your printer in ubuntu with a URI like this http://[IP_SERVER]:631/ipp
[20:50] <Papa-Smurf> Rulan use Gparted
[20:50] <Rulan> need root privs to run it
[20:51] <WalterN> sudo gparted
[20:51] <Papa-Smurf> Rulan If i were you i will boot with a LiveCD and from there i will make the changes
[20:51] <WalterN> or use it on the live CD
[20:51] <Rulan> righto
[20:51] <micapp> audacity seems overkill for the task. is there a simpler gui option?
[20:52] <WalterN> simpler recording programs exist... dont know of any off hand
[20:53] <WalterN> micapp: its really not that compicated... there is a record button, a save menu, a stop button, and a pull down menu for the recording device...
[20:53] <Papa-Smurf> micapp, there is one from the terminal (the simpler one) its name is arecord
[20:54] <Papa-Smurf> or just follow what WalterN says
[20:54] <micapp> i recorded a 18 minute test and i could not hear anything after pressing play
[20:54] <micapp> sorry 18 second test
[20:55] <WalterN> micapp: then select the correct input device? there is a meter thing showing the input levels on audacity, if those are not moving then its the wrong input device
[20:59] <WalterN> micapp: oh, to enable metering if you are not recording (so its easier to find the right input device) about in the middle along the top is a microphone icon, second option in the pulldown menu is 'start live metering' or something like that
[20:59] <WalterN> "Start Monitoring"
[21:10] <micapp> i am sorry but i ma complete newbie and do not understand the instructions
[21:12] <micapp> shall i go to audacity' s preferences to modify settings?
[21:18] <Rulan> still having trouble with my partitions
[21:19] <v1adimir> ?..
[21:19] <Rulan> all I can see is the 20gb partition on which xubuntu is installed, I can see the 440gb partition via GParted
[21:19] <Rulan> but I want to access it, and I can't figure out how
[21:19] <v1adimir> I must've missed the rest of your conversation
[21:20] <Rulan> the rest of it was "how I install xubuntu plz" and "how I partition plz"
[21:20] <v1adimir> Rulan: do you have data on the other partition, does the HDD have only the 2 partitions?
[21:20] <Rulan> but now I have most of my hdd locked into a partition that I can't even see
[21:20] <unheeding> did you manage to get pysdm installed?
[21:20] <Rulan> not sure
[21:21] <Rulan> reinstalled xubuntu, and finally figured out how to open Gparted but that's about all
[21:21] <unheeding> ah okay
[21:21] <Rulan> partitions are sda1, which is composed of sda5 (20gb, xubuntu) and sda6 (swap)
[21:22] <Rulan> and sda2, which is a 440gb partition
[21:22] <v1adimir> you shouldn't need to do anything.. (x)ubuntu should be able to mount/read all partitions on its own
[21:22] <Rulan> I would hope that too, but I can't see sda2 on the file system
[21:23] <Rulan> also wondering why I have two shortcuts to the 20gb part on my desktop
[21:24] <v1adimir> Rulan: there's something seriously wrong if it can't :\
[21:28] <Rulan> walk me through installing pysdm?
[21:28] <v1adimir> ^ unheeding :)
[21:28] <unheeding> yeah
[21:29] <unheeding> sudo apt-get install libblkid1 python python-glade2 python-gtk2 python-support
[21:29] <unheeding> ^put that into a terminal, enter your password
[21:30] <Rulan> unable to locate libblkidl
[21:30] <Rulan> oh wait
[21:30] <unheeding> that's a number 1 at the end
[21:30] <Rulan> okay sorted that
[21:31] <unheeding> okay, go to this page: http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/pysdm
[21:31] <unheeding> under "Download pysdm" click on "all" and you'll get a .deb file
[21:31] <unheeding> after you choose a mirror
[21:31] <Rulan> yup
[21:31] <Rulan> install via soft centre
[21:32] <unheeding> you can do that, or do it via the command line
[21:32] <Rulan> got it running
[21:32] <Rulan> thanks for that
[21:32] <unheeding> it should show your 440gb partition in there
[21:33] <Rulan> I see what's wrong, I think
[21:33] <Rulan> 440 part has no mountpoint set
[21:34] <unheeding> mine is mounted as /media/sda3
[21:34] <unheeding> you might have to create the directory with "mkdir" first
[21:34] <Rulan> right?
[21:35] <unheeding> so do "mkdir /dev/sda2"  if your partition in question is #2
[21:35] <unheeding> in a terminal
[21:36] <unheeding> you'll also need to run pysdm as root, using "sudo pysdm" from the command line
[21:37] <Rulan> I might just try and do this via reinstall
[21:37] <Rulan> can't change the mountpoint through pysdm
[21:37] <unheeding> are you running it as root?
[21:37] <Rulan> yep
[21:38] <unheeding> do you see the little folder icon next to mountpoint?
[21:38] <unheeding> that's how you change it
[21:38] <Rulan> yeah, it's grey
[21:38] <v1adimir> don't reinstall.. be a bit careful, maybe, because I can't see how come your xubuntu is not reading the partitions :f
[21:44] <Rulan> gonna have to try a reinstall, and I'll make sure I sort the mounts
[21:44] <Rulan> thanks again guys, see you in a bit
[21:50] <unheeding> man
[21:50] <v1adimir> stress :\
[21:51] <v1adimir> why didn't he just try a LiveCD..
[22:00] <nez> hi guys, sorry for maybe stupid question but after upgrading to 12.10 update manager always says that my system is up to date, is it so? i mean its wierd than theres no updates at all straight after the new release///
[22:02] <nez> * that there's
[22:02] <v1adimir> um, they were all fetched with the release update?..;)
[22:04] <nez> um, idn.. i've just not so long on xubuntu, but in ubuntu there was usually a lot of updates every day right after upgrading to next release
[22:04] <v1adimir> well how long has it been?.. try alt f4 and then logout - restart if you want
[22:04] <v1adimir> then sudo apt-get update
[22:04] <v1adimir> ^^ in order to end your session
[22:06] <nez> i've just tried sudo apt-get update  without logging out, it says
[22:06] <nez> err
[22:06] <nez> wait a sec
[22:08] <nez> http://uppix.net/4/c/9/9e642d5cb2f4c4aa3ab8249d3e67d.png
[22:09] <nez> В кэше means 'in cache'
[22:11] <v1adimir> nez: if you think there's some sort of error and / or pubkey is missing: 1) clean it, plus add the missing key(s) for any PPAs individually: http://askubuntu.com/questions/131601/how-to-overcome-signature-verification-error 2) http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2009/05/apt-get-update-how-to-solve-no-public-key-available/ (just another look at the same)
[22:14] <Rulan> hurrah! partitions are fully functional!
[22:14] <nez> but there's no any error messages.. looks like its just dont really checking the servers... but i dont know maybe its just no updates on it
[22:14] <v1adimir> Rulan: how did you fix it, in the end?..
[22:14] <Rulan> mount thing
[22:14] <v1adimir> kk
[22:15] <Rulan> I needed to assign a mount thing to the big partition, so I picked /C
[22:15] <nez> have anyone seen any update in update mngr? case I didnt for since i've upgaded
[22:18] <Rulan> though it seems I can't paste a file into /C now...
[22:18] <Rulan> one problem after another
[22:19] <xubuntu900> nez: Update manager works fine for me
[22:24] <nez> ok, thanks
[22:25] <Rulan> I think I need to edit permissions for /C, using the terminal
[22:25] <Rulan> help?
[22:27] <Rulan> aha! sorted!
[22:28] <Rulan> I think?
[22:29] <holstein> !chown
[22:29] <Rulan> YES!
[22:29] <Rulan> LEVEL UP!

[23:35] <xubuntu968> Hello everyone, I would like to ask how can I write greek letters in xubuntu (in winxp I used the control panel->regional languages etc)
[23:43] <Marzatha> !keyboard
[23:54] <xubuntu968> Thank you very much! I did it, it is working. Is there a fast way to switch, in windows I used alt+shift to switch fromgreek to english..
[23:57] <Marzatha> xubuntu968: just add the keyboard applet to the panel, and choose a button to switch, here is the left_win
[23:59] <xubuntu968> Ohh  yes I see, I did right click on the panel etc etc and is working fine, with a click it switches.. Thank you very much!
