Re: crappy audio
That's nice, analog audio does not work... only digitaly. Another Microsoft consipracy? Who cares. I changed the outpur engine from arts to alsa (kscd). Sound still sounds crappy. Anyway, this is not the solution since most of my music I consume digitally (ogg on amarok, using xine engine if anyone wants to know). בשבת 03 פברואר 2007, 14:47, נכתב על ידי Peter: Check all the mixer settings and try to set direct cd play (not digital).

Enabling powersave for an lcd screen
Hi, A while ago i had a system crash and i had to reinstall kubuntu from scratch. The powersave before worked and it also work now in windows. However, i can't seem to get it to work on the new installation. both acpid and apmd do not work. sudo acpid start acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy sudo apmd start No APM support in kernel I have kubuntu edgy updated. Bios have apm enabled. I also tried in the boot process to add acpi=force apm=off. and acpi=off apm=force, though this method did not load the kernel. I also tried installing powersaved. What else can i do? 10x. p.s.: i started with dapper and upgraded to edgy with adept. and the kernel is Linux Linux 2.6.17-10-386 #2 Tue Dec 5 22:26:18 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux -- Regards, Tzahi. -- Tzahi Fadida Blog: http://tzahi.blogsite.org | Home Site: http://tzahi.webhop.info WARNING TO SPAMMERS: see at http://members.lycos.co.uk/my2nis/spamwarning.html To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: ID theft (offtipicish)
Quoting Michael Vasiliev, from the post of Thu, 01 Feb: What reason do you have to believe that your identity is worth stealing? actually I have something to add to that: how does a name on a list help an identity thief? there's not enough information here about you to abuse it. one of these topics is none of my business. I like to see who is who in this trade, but that's my point of view and I am not to project it on others. Not to mention that we all agree that withholding one's identity online is a right worth exercising. The question of how to do it efficiently is left as an exercise to the reader. well, according to Google, my name draws a few results, so I'm already out there and it's too late. My address and phone number are also online on my site and in the whois DB. I don't publish my state ID and of course not my credit card, because that would be bloody stupid of me of course... I'm less likely to have my identity stolen from the archives of this list than by the waiter at the pub I went to on thursday when he takes my card. -- The eighth deadly sin Ira Abramov http://ira.abramov.org/email/ = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
