| 13:18.54 | apt | it has been said that reconfigure x is dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 and answer the questions. If you don't know what hardware you have, you can use discover, read-edid and mdetect hardware detecting tools to help you. If you don't know how they work, read their manpages "man <program>". |

| 13:39.45 | greycat | Kinda sad how half (or more) of apt's factoids are out of date, and just by coincidence, the updates stopped happening around the time I left #d. |

| 19:31.52 | troubled | greycat: why did you leave #d anyways? |
| 19:32.57 | greycat | I left when someone complained about the channel to Overfiend, and he sent his DD friends in to "clean up". Then I just never bothered going back. |
| 19:33.14 | greycat | !fable |
| 19:33.14 | dpkg | http://wiki.debian.org/TheFable? |
| 19:33.27 | troubled | ahh that |
| 19:33.52 | troubled | still a debian user though? |
| 19:33.56 | greycat | yes |
| 19:34.04 | troubled | well, thats all that counts :) |
| 19:34.22 | troubled | besides, I am sure there are plenty of people that use debian that arent on irc, or are on oftc only etc. |
| 19:34.51 | troubled | but perhaps its time to waddle on back? for old time sake? |
| 20:00.53 | streuner | greycat: most people just use dpkg nowadays... |
| 20:01.11 | streuner | greycat: almost nobody give a damn about apt |
