| 03:05.11 | Clive- | no matter |
| 03:18.46 | Leeds | the currency format is two-letter country code followed by one-letter currency code |
| 03:19.10 | Leeds | ibot currency for lebanon |
| 03:19.38 | Leeds | eh, there is a way to search, but you can usually guess |
| 03:23.29 | Clive- | i'd guess at gbp for uk currency |
| 03:26.02 | Leeds | right |
| 03:26.11 | Leeds | oh, is that the currency you were after? :-) |

| 12:46.22 | goibhniu | hey clive-h are you wobblin? |
| 12:47.39 | clive-h | wobbling? |
| 12:48.08 | goibhniu | compiz? |
| 12:48.30 | clive-h | Ahhh no not yet doesn't work |
| 12:48.34 | goibhniu | :( |
| 12:48.38 | goibhniu | ati? |
| 12:48.51 | clive-h | Intel GMA950 |
| 12:49.05 | goibhniu | oh ... not sooo bad |
| 12:49.12 | clive-h | It should work |
| 12:49.27 | clive-h | Need to tweak my xorg.conf a bit I think |
| 12:50.29 | goibhniu | that'll be needing some poking alright |
| 12:50.42 | clive-h | Yewah |
| 12:50.52 | goibhniu | have you got a good howto? |
| 12:52.54 | clive-h | Heh I'll look for one. resizing ext3 on that |
| 12:54.15 | goibhniu | what distro ... I wouldn't mind having a look |
| 12:54.47 | clive-h | fedora core 6 |
| 12:55.15 | goibhniu | cool, and do you care whether it's beryl or compiz? |
| 12:55.23 | goibhniu | they're merging soon anyway |
| 12:56.16 | clive-h | not really |
| 12:56.29 | clive-h | got both compiz and beryl installed |
| 12:57.27 | clive-h | That laptop is currently 6 gigs into resizing a 52Gb ext3 file-system though at the moment |
| 13:00.47 | goibhniu | did you get the beryl settings manager running? |
| 13:01.25 | goibhniu | it probably just is a matter of adding a few lines to your xorg.conf |
| 13:01.47 | clive-h | It could be , it tooks ages to get X running |
| 13:01.52 | goibhniu | iirc fc has some menu option for turning it on ... dunno what that does tho |
| 13:01.57 | clive-h | s/tooks/took/ |
| 13:02.07 | goibhniu | 915resolution shenanigans? |
| 13:03.13 | clive-h | yeah |
| 13:03.26 | clive-h | took a while to get it right |
| 13:04.27 | goibhniu | it's annoying that the only open source graphics driver is such a dog to configure, I don't get it |
| 13:05.25 | clive-h | i rarely find system-config-display works well |
| 13:07.57 | goibhniu | according to http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Fedora_Core#Special_driver_configurations it should work out of the box |
| 13:08.53 | clive-h | it grumbles about GLX |
| 13:08.53 | goibhniu | do you remember if you ran beryl-settings-manager? |
| 13:09.06 | goibhniu | hmm |
| 13:09.09 | clive-h | No I've not run that |
| 13:10.04 | goibhniu | I guess there's no point in thinking about it until it's finished resizing ... sounds encouraging that it should be easy tho |
| 13:10.28 | clive-h | Hopefully |
| 13:10.34 | clive-h | It's got ages to go |
| 13:11.26 | clive-h | catch22 is if i try on here, i'll lose my connection |
| 13:12.03 | goibhniu | is that also an intel gpu? |
| 13:12.24 | clive-h | yeah intel gma900 |
| 13:13.05 | goibhniu | although it sounds like you don't even need to restart X |
| 13:13.36 | clive-h | you have to replace the wm with compiz |
| 13:13.57 | goibhniu | beryl-settings-manger can swap them for you |
| 13:14.31 | clive-h | hmmm i'll try that on the laptop |
| 13:14.54 | clive-h | i run xfce4 on this , cos it has no memory really |
| 13:15.15 | goibhniu | if you start it up and you lose your window title bars etc you just need to right click on the beryl diamond and switch back to your old wm |
| 13:15.43 | goibhniu | I don't know what the story is with xfce and beryl tbh |
| 13:15.45 | clive-h | i'll try that |
| 13:15.56 | clive-h | on the laptop |
| 13:16.25 | clive-h | well i switched to xfce cos gnome was a bit much in 232Mb |
| 13:18.04 | goibhniu | oh ... apparently it'll work fine with xfce ... nice |
| 13:18.45 | clive-h | i think the laptop might better it's dual core |
| 13:24.42 | morsing | Nice |
| 13:25.11 | clive-h | assuming linux survives the resizing |
| 13:25.14 | goibhniu | morsing: have you eating danish food? |

| 15:11.43 | adb_ | OK - solved my problem. I made a map in "my maps" and linked to it from Google Calendar |

| 15:20.38 | Leeds | adb_: that's the new service, right? |
| 15:26.32 | Leeds | okay, so... it may be eSATA, but the machine and/or the kernel don't handle new hard drives appearing out of nowhere on the SATA bus very well |
| 15:50.45 | adb_ | Leeds: thats right. At a first use if looks useful. I have written somethign similar myself to plot walks but it is a bit klunky. |
