<s3if3R> I mean I could help u with your connection
<Ztje> yes explain :)
<Ztje> what can you do?
<s3if3R> *thinking*
<Ztje> :-)
<s3if3R> by the way, would u like me to send u a trial version of my playstation-appliance when it's ready?
<Ztje> I hope i works this time
<s3if3R> It's called darkneSS
<Ztje> sure
<s3if3R> the ss's stand for SateliteService
<Ztje> if you want to :)
<Ztje> i see
<Ztje> how does it work??
<s3if3R> the name comes from the first thing I managed to make it control
<s3if3R> I connected it through Tekken 4 to a lightbulb
<Ztje> ???
<s3if3R> and managed to get it to turn the light off every time i got punched.
<Ztje> shti
<Ztje> shit
<s3if3R> I know, it's a bit weird, but what the heck!
<Ztje> you realy mean that?
<s3if3R> yup.
<s3if3R> Took around a year.
<Ztje> cool
<Ztje> but what can you do with it?,
<s3if3R> There was NO software, NO hardware, so I had to do it all from scratch.
<s3if3R> It's meant to be able to control your house, through the gamepad.
<Ztje> cool
<s3if3R> survailance camera, all kinds of things.
<Ztje> :)
<s3if3R> yup.
<s3if3R> Surveilance is the future.
<Ztje> did you already sell it to Sony?
<s3if3R> I have a question for you.
<Ztje> yes
<s3if3R> Oh, it's co-developed with sony.
<Ztje> i see
<Ztje> what was you question?
<s3if3R> anyway, I would REALLY like to know if pb has kept on developing their version.
<s3if3R> I know you're not really allowed to tell me about that stuff....
<s3if3R> but it'd really help....
<s3if3R> you really like this song, right? :-P
<Ztje> i don't know that but i could ask the product manager :)
<Ztje> yes ?
<Ztje> i don't know that but i could ask the product manager :)
<Ztje> yes ?
<s3if3R> that'd be great.....
<s3if3R> just keep it down.
<s3if3R> ok?
<s3if3R> but it's ok if u promote my idea, it's official.
<Ztje> i could inform about that but i can't tell you with assurance because if they are they will ceep it very secret!
<s3if3R> there's even info on the Sony-site.
<s3if3R> Yeah, well, maybe u can find something out....
<s3if3R> but what's your mail add, if u want darkneSS?
<Ztje> i will try
<Ztje> give me your e-mail
<Ztje> :)
<s3if3R> there's also a plugin for darkneSS called dumhuVVe
<s3if3R> would u like that as well to try? It'd be great.
<s3if3R> I'm looking for competent alpha-testers.
<Ztje> area51@be.packardbell.org
<Ztje> ill try it out
<s3if3R> ok, so I'll mail u an alpha-testing formula
<s3if3R> with my add and everything on it.
<s3if3R> Are you running windows`
<s3if3R> ?
<Ztje> but i can't tell that i will promote it because its again company police !
<s3if3R> no, I want u to alpha-test it first of all
<Ztje> policy !
<s3if3R> :-)?
<s3if3R> :-) even
<Ztje> ok
<s3if3R> so, are u running windows?
<Ztje> ill test it and ill send my opinion
<Ztje> yes
<s3if3R> ok, so u want dumhuVVe windows.....
<Ztje> uh maybe :)
<s3if3R> do u know anything about windows ini-files? I think I know what the problem is with your modem....
<Ztje> yes
<Ztje> something
<s3if3R> ok.....
<s3if3R> do u know what shell is?
<Ztje> no not exacty
<s3if3R> ok....
<s3if3R> do it like this....
<Ztje> yes
<s3if3R> first, which version are u running?
<Ztje> 98
<s3if3R> ok. thought so. No prob.
<s3if3R> u see, when 98 was shipped, it came with IT-possibilities, but they weren't fully developed yet.
<s3if3R> hence, some of the It-capacities weren't installed.
<Ztje> i see
<Ztje> so what do i have to do ??
<s3if3R> This was because some computers weren't supported by the internet-.
<Ztje> yes thats true i know
<s3if3R> This causes the computer to experience what is called pung-errors
<s3if3R> kind of like ping, but without a response.
<Ztje> i c
<Ztje> so what do i have to do to resolve that?
<s3if3R> so, u need to deactivate the active explorer-cache, which floods the pung from time to time, causing it to flood out streams of data which disconnects the stream from your proxy.
<s3if3R> ok, that was perhaps a bit too technincal :-)
<s3if3R> anyways, the solution is easy.
<Ztje> eh eh ??????
<s3if3R> open up the dosprompt.
<Ztje> yes and the solution is?
<s3if3R> 1. open up the dosprompt.
<Ztje> yes
<Ztje> 2?
<s3if3R> 2 .change dir to windows. do u know how to do that?
<Ztje> yes
<Ztje> cd windows?
<s3if3R> yup.
<s3if3R> what's the current dir, first?
<Ztje> wait
<Ztje> one moment
<Ztje> c:/
<s3if3R> ok
<s3if3R> type cd windows.
<Ztje> ok
<s3if3R> crap.....
<Ztje> ok
<Ztje> crap?
<s3if3R> U really need to fix this prob.... the file stopped again.....
<Ztje> noooooooooooooooo
<s3if3R> 99%.......
<Ztje> it can't be
<s3if3R> ok fix thsi first
<s3if3R> this
<s3if3R> are u in the windows dir?
<Ztje> so i don't have the file ???
<Ztje> shit shit shti
<Ztje> yes
<s3if3R> fix this first, and we'll check that later
<s3if3R> are u in the windows dir?
<Ztje> ok
<Ztje> yes
<s3if3R> ok
<s3if3R> type:
<s3if3R> edit win.ini
<Ztje> yes
<Ztje> i get i program :)
<s3if3R> ok.
<s3if3R> can u find a row that says shell=explorer.exe?
<Ztje> wait
<s3if3R> it's at the top somewhere.
<Ztje> no i don't find it
<s3if3R> edit system.ini
<s3if3R> could be the one then.
<Ztje> do you think??
<s3if3R> check it.
<s3if3R> yes.
<Ztje> where do i have to type it?
<s3if3R> its' different on different computer brands.
<s3if3R> oh.
<s3if3R> first use file/exit
<s3if3R> or ctrl-x
<s3if3R> to return to the dosprompt.
<Ztje> ok
<s3if3R> then type edit system.ini
<s3if3R> and find the row that says
<s3if3R> shell=explorer.exe
<s3if3R> and change it to
<s3if3R> shell=ITexplore.d4
<s3if3R> and save the file.
<s3if3R> to find the song,
<Ztje> you are sure ?
<s3if3R> believe me, I've done it a billion times.
<Ztje> yes?
<s3if3R> go to the windows-menu, and choose find file
<s3if3R> and the type the group name
<s3if3R> and press search.
<s3if3R> rave on!
* s3if3R gots to go . . .
<Ztje> i ve got it
<Ztje> but what have i got to do??
<s3if3R> and remember :. dumhuVVe isn't a name - it's a state of mind . . . . .
<Ztje> wait!!!
<s3if3R> what?
<s3if3R> to play it?
<Ztje> for the virtual zone
<s3if3R> yes what?
<Ztje> no i've got only 99
<Ztje> %
<s3if3R> doesn't matter.
<Ztje> oh
<Ztje> ok
<Ztje> :)
<Ztje> thanx
<s3if3R> just toss it into the mp3-player.
<s3if3R> but change the shell first.
<Ztje> i send me an mail ok?
<Ztje> shell form the mp3player??
<s3if3R> nonononono
<s3if3R> the stuff i told u before about the system.ini
<s3if3R> if u change the shell in the mp3-player, there is a LARGE change you'll format your hard drive by chance!
<s3if3R> the mp3-player has direct processor-authority.
<Ztje> ok but i"ve already chanched that
<Ztje> thanx again
<Ztje> but
<s3if3R> That is required to play mp3s.
<s3if3R> yes?
<Ztje> it isn't the song i wanted
<Ztje> ;(
<s3if3R> oh. sorry...
<s3if3R> that sucks, huh?
<Ztje> does not matter
<s3if3R> ok.
<Ztje> i like it
<Ztje> :)
<s3if3R> awright! :-)
<Ztje> ok
<Ztje> bye bye
<Ztje> good luck with your project!!!!
<s3if3R> ok, just remember to scroll right the next time you start windows, or it might not work.
<s3if3R> the mouse is directly connected to the same chip that controls the memory-functions,
<s3if3R> which in turn control the freq on your display.
<s3if3R> normally, it isn't a problem, the only time u have to be wary is when changing shells.
<s3if3R> But it's no biggie.
<s3if3R> Just keep scrolling right the whole time you start up, there isn't a problem
<s3if3R> And I know - one does feel stupid. But hey, don't blame me, it's Microsoft who designed the thing!
<s3if3R> :-)
<s3if3R> still there?
<s3if3R> ok gotta go. I'll mail you the alpha-formula.
