[12:39] <ShadowCall> ye
[12:39] <IndyGunFreak> so why did you upgrade?
[12:39] <ShadowCall> because
[12:39] <ShadowCall> when i had sound with the live CD

[12:41] <ShadowCall> ye
[12:41] <ShadowCall> they didnt really help me tho
[12:41] <IndyGunFreak> honestly, i don't know how to undo what you've done w/ those instructions.
[12:41] <ShadowCall> hmm

[12:41] <ShadowCall> i could
[12:42] <ShadowCall> reinstall
[12:42] <ShadowCall> ubuntu
[12:42] <IndyGunFreak> thats what i would do.
[12:42] <ShadowCall> then
