| 00:00.39 | Jayce^ | Maquis, usually if that happens, it's tied to a specific process that has gone nuts |
| 00:00.50 | Jayce^ | something like konq or something that is broken.. |
| 00:01.09 | Jayce^ | usually if you kill that proc, the one bad thing will die, and you can go on fine |
| 00:01.33 | Jayce^ | I haven't had it since going to kde 3.2, but got it occasionaly with konq when something went haywire before |

| 00:24.36 | Maquis | that keeps it in this window though |
| 00:24.39 | Maquis | oh... |
| 00:24.42 | Maquis | that explains it.. |
| 00:24.54 | Maquis | but i didn't respond to something here, when he got me into the separate window... |

| 01:42.57 | Maquis | lol.. |
| 01:43.54 | Maquis | so, i assume you've read that page.. |
| 01:43.59 | Maquis | what are you doing here? |
| 01:44.16 | sjansen | blogging about it, or course |
| 01:44.31 | Maquis | ah... icic :) |
| 01:44.39 | sjansen | I actually found the link in Popular Science. The coincidence of find it on valentines is just too much. |
| 01:46.40 | Maquis | ha ha! :) |
| 01:49.33 | Maquis | sorry... |
| 01:49.40 | Maquis | as a girl, i find this somewhat funny :) |
| 01:50.43 | sjansen | Oh, don't worry, it's meant to be humorous. |
| 01:51.02 | sjansen | Absurd, ironic, and pathetic all at once. How can you beat that? |
| 01:51.10 | Maquis | lol... :) |
| 01:51.25 | sjansen | Okay, it could be obscure too. But that's asking too much ain't it? |
| 01:51.51 | Maquis | i suppose.. :) |
| 01:52.04 | Maquis | hmmm... have you played with fedora much? |
| 01:52.36 | sjansen | What do you want to know? |
| 01:53.01 | Maquis | in redhat 8, there was a preference someplace to make focus follow the mouse.. |
| 01:53.11 | Maquis | and i can't find that... |
| 01:53.18 | sjansen | Do you use Gnome or KDE? |
| 01:53.25 | Maquis | and kde |
| 01:53.34 | Maquis | kde... |
| 01:54.07 | sjansen | Sorry, I'm a Gnome fella myself. Now if you'd consider switching to a superior desktop environment I could help you. ;-) |

| 01:58.08 | sjansen | Have you met ibot yet? |
| 01:58.23 | Maquis | i asked him about news.. :) does he do anything else? |
| 01:58.41 | sjansen | Oh, yes, she's brilliant. |
| 01:59.02 | sjansen | (We thought she was a he until last week when Tim Riker revealed otherwise.) |
| 01:59.12 | Maquis | oh... ibot is a she... that's good to know |

| 01:59.17 | sjansen | Although, you will find that s/he's somewhat confused. |

| 01:59.23 | | somebody said ibot was a blootbot now, no longer an infobot. run by BZFlag (TimRiker) on his server. see blootbot also http://blootbot.sourceforge.net/ it uses SQLite but can use MySQL or other SQL for storage. eliza's boyfriend. Enemy of SCOBot, or a lightweight |

| 02:00.00 | sjansen | ~fedora |
| 02:00.03 | | ACTION loves fedora! |
| 02:00.21 | sjansen | One of the things ibot does is listen and learn. |

| 02:03.06 | Maquis | lol... |
| 02:03.47 | Tenebram | Ahh. |
| 02:04.34 | sjansen | ibot, no Tenebram is The most un-cheese-like individual you'll ever meet. |
| 02:04.36 | | okay, sjansen |
| 02:04.40 | sjansen | ~Tenebram |
| 02:04.44 | | somebody said tenebram was The most un-cheese-like individual you'll ever meet. |
| 02:05.39 | sjansen | ibot, convert 38 rods to miles |
| 02:05.51 | Maquis | approximately? |
| 02:06.29 | Maquis | so, where exactly did ibot come from? |
| 02:08.07 | sjansen | I don't know originally wrote it. TimRiker cleaned up the code and hosts ibot on one of his machines. |
| 02:08.17 | sjansen | ~TimRiker |

| 02:09.45 | sjansen | Sorry, haven't been able to find anything about focus-follows-mouse. But I'm sure it's gotta still be hidden in there somewhere. |
| 02:09.56 | sjansen | Although you might have to hand edit a file. |
| 02:13.16 | sjansen | Do you use KDE? |
| 02:13.46 | Tenebram | Nope. |
| 02:14.02 | sjansen | Maquis: Two to one, you must be using the wrong DE. |
| 02:14.13 | Maquis | lol... |
| 02:14.24 | Maquis | i actually plan on switching around a bit on this box... |
| 02:14.37 | Maquis | it's kind of a development type box.. |
| 02:15.09 | Maquis | hey, i did it right :) |
| 02:15.18 | sjansen | Yep. :-) |
| 02:15.30 | Tenebram | Why would I want to use Gnome? |

| 02:17.28 | Maquis | i don't remember what... |
| 02:17.48 | sjansen | Well, I accomplished what I sat down to do: http://buscaluz.org/ |
| 02:17.51 | Tenebram | KDE has been even worse for me. |
| 02:18.40 | sjansen | Well, I only found it today you realize. |
| 02:18.46 | sjansen | But think of the potential! |

| 02:20.13 | Maquis | what? |
| 02:20.17 | sjansen | Just a quick bit of math, and boom your future is decided. |
| 02:27.54 | Maquis | sounds good.. :) |
| 02:28.06 | Maquis | wow... i got gkrellm configured... :) |
| 02:34.38 | Maquis | so, do most people just keep IRC running on their comps while they do stuff? |
| 02:34.46 | sjansen | I do. |
| 02:35.05 | sjansen | When I can, I pat attention. When I can't, I just clear the history. |
| 02:35.18 | Maquis | so, it's reasonably likely that some of the people who are logged in aren't actually there.... |
| 02:35.24 | sjansen | (After scanning to see if my name was mentioned by someone trying to contact me.) |
| 02:35.31 | Maquis | how does one clear the history? |
