09:54.14 | gregj | what does 'mow my lawn' means ? |
09:54.27 | gregj | I know what mow is, and what lawn is, but I don't get that anyway |
09:58.44 | clive-h | cut the grass on the lawn |
10:00.41 | gregj | mow is a heap of stag |
10:00.58 | gregj | hmm, so it means - create heap of whatever grows on my lawn |
10:01.01 | gregj | heh |
10:01.14 | gregj | clive-h: thanks :) |
10:05.48 | gregj | s/stag/grain/ |
10:06.03 | gregj | mf, where did I get that word from... |
10:36.23 | Leeds | mow is a heap of grain? |
10:55.02 | gregj | 1. The place in a barn where hay, grain, or other feed is stored. |
10:55.02 | gregj | 2. A stack of hay or other feed stored in a barn. |
10:55.11 | gregj | you're right, my memory.... |
10:55.29 | gregj | thing is, this word is hardly used by anyone I know :) |
11:03.33 | clive-h | It's a common enough UK usage : to mow the lawn |
11:11.45 | gregj | ok |

13:22.48 | serris | I'm pretty sure whoever broke into the house we know |
13:23.01 | boudiccas | why? |
13:23.07 | serris | Didn't take the xbox |
13:23.10 | serris | Didn't take my laptop |
13:23.24 | serris | didn't even really take any of the change just 4 cigarettes, some booze and my wife's stuff |
13:23.25 | boudiccas | ah |
13:23.53 | serris | And whoever was doing it was calm about it too cause they stralled around the kitchen opening all the cupboards and what not |
13:24.01 | serris | I think they were looking for a spork |
13:24.02 | boudiccas | nasty. makes you suspect all your friends |
13:24.12 | boudiccas | spork? |

15:34.53 | boudiccas | On my C5 desktop I have a rogue/orphaned icon showing from when a dvd was opened in /media/hdg which does not now exist as the dvd has been ejected. How do i get rid of the rogue icon please? |
15:41.50 | clive-h | Right click on it. select Delete |
15:42.42 | boudiccas | it doesn't have that option |
15:43.12 | clive-h | Errk what window manager? |
15:43.21 | boudiccas | kde |
15:43.57 | clive-h | select the icon by left-cliking on it once |
15:44.02 | clive-h | Press DEL |
15:44.29 | boudiccas | nothing happens |
15:45.23 | boudiccas | i've even tried dragging it into the trash can but it won't allow me to do it |
15:45.38 | clive-h | Hmmm open xterm |
15:45.46 | clive-h | cd Desktop |
15:45.52 | clive-h | Find that file |
15:45.55 | clive-h | rm it |
15:46.56 | boudiccas | its not displayed in the desktop, just shows on all visible desktops! |
15:47.32 | clive-h | I've not used KDE in 7 years or so |
15:48.27 | boudiccas | thats why i describe it as 'rogue' |
15:49.17 | clive-h | I can't login into KDE sorry on this laptop to test it |
15:49.28 | clive-h | It's not installed |
15:49.39 | antiphase | Isn't it just going to go away next time you shut it down? |
15:50.03 | clive-h | Well presumably when you logout |
15:50.14 | boudiccas | i've got rid of it [i think] :) I used 'xkill' and clicked on that icon and effectively killed the desktop |
15:50.34 | clive-h | you killed the wm I think not X |
15:51.01 | boudiccas | either way, no rogue icon now :) |
15:51.47 | clive-h | pro tem |
15:52.05 | boudiccas | all menus still appear to work just got a black pit that I'm looking into now on the desktop |
15:52.37 | boudiccas | and no right click to the mouse on the desktop to log out |
