<5> slavik: i was about to, then intelikey told me to do... the other thing & that didn't work then i tried your idea, & it worked THANK YOU!
<1> stbrenner: it shouldn't
<7> stbrenner: Shouldn't, unless the lcd is around 5 years old
<8> I knew one guy who mistook a turned off computer for one running a blank screensaver and spent two hours typing in a term paper. Till this day I wonder how he managed to spell-check it.
<1> MaKkY: you are getting too excited :P
<6> no it's about 1 month :)

<3> ...

<6> thats why i'm so paranoid
<1> garryfre: no ****?
<9> Does anyone know how to change the icon on the applications menu?
<7> Enthusiasm... don't quash it. Like love, it is the greatest illusion our race has.
<8> yep, I was a ta at the time.
<1> paganini: not sure, why would you want to? (you might also try the gnomes if we don't help you)
<10> I once got a commodore 64 to play baa baa black sheep without a monitor, purely using the clicks of the keys as i entered in the program :)

<11> hi, i installed compiz but i don't see it in gconf-editor under apps, can someone help?
<1> it is probably a source code ...
<5> slavik: i tried extracting then "cd" then ./configure
<1> MaKkY: right
<5> slavik: but it wouldn't allow me to ./configure
<1> keep going
<1> what did it say?
<1> there should be an error there
<1> that it gives
<9> Is there a gnome channel I could ask in?
<1> paganini: on gimpnet ...
<9> OK
<1> gimp sounds so ... gimpy and offensive

<8> man tar
<8> er man gzip
<12> ok, so chmod changes file permissions...what command can I use to find out the present permissions set on a file? ls doesn't seem to have that as an option
<5> freaks: i already installed planeshift...

<16> er
<16> ls -lah
