| 17:19.59 | darkpact | hi what are the plans for the next meet? |
| 17:20.34 | Ch0Hag | All I have to do is just remove from my methodoligy any of the logic I use when running Debian and hey presto - RedHat. |
| 17:20.45 | boudiccas | :) |
| 17:22.12 | boudiccas | have you got a spare box you can bung centos onto. then you can honestly say that you're using centos |
| 17:22.36 | boudiccas | *biased |
| 17:22.41 | darkpact | what about chainsaw linux lol |
| 17:22.53 | darkpact | tbh, you can't do much with it but the name sounds cool |

| 17:24.53 | darkpact | i have given up on enabling the built in bluetooth on my toshiba notebook on gutsy 7.10, could use some help then |
| 17:26.01 | darkpact | what would be the problem in a shoot em up game, this case kraptor under gnome where the sound is choppy but it plays ok |
| 17:26.34 | darkpact | also when i use the mouse to move the ship, the whole game becomes choppy. my guess is you are moving the mouse outside the window and back onto the desktop. |

| 22:03.15 | secretlo1don | -q |
| 22:04.42 | secretlo1don | anyone know if the bruce perens thing is happening? |
| 22:05.02 | Discordian | I've no idea I'm afraid |
| 22:10.35 | secretlo1don | 300 meg update |
| 22:10.49 | secretlo1don | boo hiss at running alpha software |
| 22:15.26 | Discordian | what alpha software is it? |
| 22:15.42 | secretlo1don | ubuntu's next lts edition |
| 22:15.57 | secretlo1don | i'm running it on this machine (my laptop) |
| 22:16.06 | secretlo1don | due april |
| 22:16.16 | secretlo1don | hardy heron |
| 22:17.09 | secretlo1don | it's a bit fuxxored as it's only giving me 800x600 screen and xorg.conf is automgaically configured which is a pain |
| 22:17.19 | antiphase | Are you actually filing bug reports or just doing it for the luls? |
| 22:17.35 | antiphase | dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg |
| 22:17.38 | secretlo1don | luls? |
| 22:18.12 | Discordian | Just edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf |
| 22:18.31 | secretlo1don | obviously bug reported, and xorg.conf in the new X is empty basically |
| 22:18.47 | secretlo1don | as well as that I should try and see if they fix it |
| 22:19.07 | Discordian | What res is the device natively? |
| 22:19.14 | secretlo1don | 1024x768 |
| 22:19.57 | Discordian | Just stick a Modeline "1024x768" "800x600" in |
| 22:20.46 | secretlo1don | its finding the monitor as a max 800x600 - it's a bug in the trident driver I think as it is finding it as 1024x768 elsewhere |
| 22:21.07 | Discordian | Hmmm |
| 22:21.42 | Discordian | i guess it depends what EDID reports |
| 22:21.43 | antiphase | IgnoreDDC then maybe |
| 22:21.50 | antiphase | or IgnoreEDID then :) |
| 22:22.29 | Discordian | I usually hack up my xorg.conf anyway |
| 22:22.31 | secretlo1don | think ddc is broken from reading org.0.log |
| 22:22.59 | secretlo1don | it's a bit weird as xorg.conf as everything as "configured monitor" etc |
| 22:24.10 | Discordian | But I like my current config 1280x11024 on the CRT, 1280x800 on the laptop LCD |
| 22:24.20 | Discordian | and Compiz works well |
| 22:24.26 | secretlo1don | (II) Loading sub module "ddc" |

| 22:26.58 | secretlo1don | however I'm sure my old loki games would be happier.. |
| 22:27.20 | Discordian | Quake 2 etc? |
| 22:27.28 | secretlo1don | alpha centauri |
| 22:27.42 | Discordian | I guess if I reverted to RH8 |
| 22:28.01 | Discordian | I could run Perfect Office and Kylix again |
| 22:30.38 | secretlo1don | it finds (--) TRIDENT(0): TFT Panel 1024x768 found and then uses the default horiz sync and v refresh and then says that 1024x768 is out of range |
| 22:31.23 | secretlo1don | i cna have a play onve it's finally upgraded itself and I can see if they have fixed the mad crash bug |
| 22:31.36 | Discordian | heh |
