Bill Gates Concerned About ‘Crap.’

June 26th, 2008

I found an Interesting read @ Gizmodo.

I thought it was great whoever put this out. I hate that it was put out in a nature to make Microsoft look bad. I think this letter will make people, like me, who like Windows, just not all the crap, feel a lot better about it’s future.

I really thought this was a good video - I don’t know what they call this Genre, but it’s sort of in nature of Juno. Neat video + song.

I downloaded this song a few days ago. I really liked it, I really think I need to remind myself, once in a while, of the important things to look forward to - you know?

Bad alsa-utils, Bad!

June 21st, 2008

A screenshot of services on Ubuntu 8.04 including alsa-utils that disabled sound on my Acer Aspire 5050

So, once in a while, Pidgin will play a sound and the sounds seems to lock up a repeat. Well, I tried something tonight, I thought, maybe if I enabled alsa-utils service in Ubuntu 8.04 it would stop it. Well, all I got was a crackling sound after enabling and disabling it, restarting, etc.

So, what I did was (mind you, the service alsa-utils is not running) I typed: /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset to fix it, sounds returned to normal after that.

Ubuntu, still not okay for grandma.

Note, I had to re-set all my volume settings after doing this, my music was all super-quite and I almost freaked again.
