Greek (ελληνικά [eliniˈka] elliniká or ελληνική γλώσσα [eliniˈci ˈɣlosa] ellinikí glóssa) is an independent branch of the Indo-European family of languages. Native to the southern Balkans, Western Asia Minor, Greece and the Aegean, it has the longest documented history of any Indo-European language, spanning 34 centuries of written records. Its writing system has been the Greek alphabet for the majority of its history; other systems, such as Linear B and the Cypriot syllabary, were previously used. The alphabet arose from the Phoenician script, and was in turn the basis of the Latin, Cyrillic, Coptic, and many other writing systems.
The Greek language holds an important place in the histories of Europe, the more loosely defined Western world, and Christianity; the canon of ancient Greek literature includes works of monumental importance and influence for the future Western canon, such as the epic poems Iliad and Odyssey. Greek was also the language in which many of the foundational texts of Western philosophy, such as the Platonic dialogues and the works of Aristotle, were composed; the New Testament of the Christian Bible was written in Koiné Greek. Together with the Latin texts and traditions of the Roman world, the study of the Greek texts and society of antiquity constitutes the discipline of classics.
Greek was a widely spoken lingua franca in the Mediterranean world and beyond during classical antiquity, and would eventually become the official parlance of the Byzantine Empire. In its modern form, it is the official language of Greece and Cyprus and one of the 23 official languages of the European Union. The language is spoken by at least 13 million people today in Greece, Cyprus, and diaspora communities in numerous parts of the world.
Greek roots are often used to coin new words for other languages, especially in the sciences and medicine; Greek and Latin are the predominant sources of the international scientific vocabulary. Over fifty thousand English words are derived from the Greek language.

Greek has been spoken in the Balkan Peninsula since around the late 3rd millennium BC.[7][better source needed] The earliest written evidence is found in the Linear B clay tablets in the "Room of the Chariot Tablets", an LMIII A-context (c. 1400 BC) region of Knossos, in Crete, making Greek the world's oldest recorded living language. Among the Indo-European languages, its date of earliest written attestation is matched only by the now extinct Anatolian languages.
The later Greek alphabet is derived from the Phoenician alphabet (abjad); with minor modifications, it is still used today.
The Greek language is conventionally divided into the following periods:
- Proto-Greek: the unrecorded but assumed last ancestor of all known varieties of Greek. Proto-Greek speakers possibly entered the Greek peninsula in the early 2nd millennium BC. Since then, Greek has been spoken uninterruptedly in Greece.
- Mycenaean Greek: the language of the Mycenaean civilization. It is recorded in the Linear B script on tablets dating from the 15th or 14th century BC onwards.
- Ancient Greek: in its various dialects, the language of the Archaic and Classical periods of the ancient Greek civilization. It was widely known throughout the Roman Empire. Ancient Greek fell into disuse in western Europe in the Middle Ages, but remained officially in use in the Byzantine world, and was reintroduced to the rest of Europe with the Fall of Constantinople and Greek migration to the areas of Italy.
- Koine Greek: The fusion of various ancient Greek dialects with Attic, the dialect of Athens, resulted in the creation of the first common Greek dialect, which became a lingua franca across Eastern Mediterranean and Near East. Koine Greek can be initially traced within the armies and conquered territories of Alexander the Great, but after the Hellenistic colonization of the known world, it was spoken from Egypt to the fringes of India. After the Roman conquest of Greece, an unofficial diglossy of Greek and Latin was established in the city of Rome and Koine Greek became a first or second language in the Roman Empire. The origin of Christianity can also be traced through Koine Greek, as the Apostles used it to preach in Greece and the Greek-speaking world. It is also known as the Alexandrian dialect, Post-Classical Greek, or even New Testament Greek, as it was the original language of the New Testament. Even the Old Testament was translated into the same language via the Septuagint.
- Medieval Greek, also known as Byzantine Greek: the continuation of Koine Greek during Byzantine Greece, up to the demise of the Byzantine Empire in the 15th century. Medieval Greek is a cover phrase for a whole continuum of different speech and writing styles, ranging from vernacular continuations of spoken Koine that were already approaching Modern Greek in many respects, to highly learned forms imitating classical Attic. Much of the written Greek that was used as the official language of the Byzantine Empire was an eclectic middle-ground variety based on the tradition of written Koine.
- Modern Greek: Stemming from Medieval Greek, Modern Greek usages can be traced in the Byzantine period, as early as the 11th century. It is the language used by modern Greeks, and apart from Standard Modern Greek, there are several dialects of it.
The tradition of diglossia, the simultaneous existence of vernacular and archaizing written forms of Greek, was renewed in the modern era in the form of a polarization between two competing varieties: Dimotiki, the vernacular form of Modern Greek proper, and Katharevousa, meaning 'purified', an imitation of classical Greek, which was developed in the early 19th century and used for literary, juridic, administrative, and scientific purposes in the newly formed modern Greek state. The diglossia problem was brought to an end in 1976 (Law 306/1976), when Dimotikí was declared the official language of Greece, and it is still in use for all official purposes and in education, having incorporated features of Katharevousa, giving birth to Standard Greek.
Historical unity[edit]
Historical unity and continuing identity between the various stages of the Greek language is often emphasised. Although Greek has undergone morphological and phonological changes comparable to those seen in other languages, there has been no time in its history since classical antiquity where its cultural, literary, and orthographic tradition was interrupted to such an extent that one can easily speak of a new language emerging. Greek speakers today still tend to regard literary works of ancient Greek as part of their own rather than a foreign language.[8] It is also often estimated that the historical changes have been relatively slight compared with some other languages. According to one estimation, "Homeric Greek is probably closer to demotic than twelfth-century Middle English is to modern spoken English."[9] With effort, a portion of the words[further explanation needed] in ancient Greek texts can be understood by educated modern speakers, something that is not possible in many languages. The perception of historical unity is also strengthened by the fact that Greek has not split up into a group of separate, regional daughter languages, as happened with Latin.[disputed ]
Loanwords to other languages[edit]
Greek words have been widely borrowed into other languages, including English: mathematics, physics, astronomy, democracy, philosophy, thespian, athletics, theatre, rhetoric, baptism, evangelist, etc. Moreover, Greek words and word elements continue to be productive as a basis for coinages: anthropology, photography, telephony, isomer, biomechanics, cinematography, etc. and form, with Latin words, the foundation of international scientific and technical vocabulary, e.g. all words ending with –logy ("discourse"). An estimated 12% of the English vocabulary has Greek origin, while numerous Greek words have English derivatives.[10]
Geographic distribution[edit]
Greek is spoken by about 13.1 million people,[1] mainly in Greece and Cyprus, but also worldwide by the large Greek diaspora. There are traditional Greek-speaking settlements in the neighbouring countries of Albania, Bulgaria, and Turkey, as well as in several countries in the Black Sea area such as Ukraine, Russia, Romania, Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan, and around the Mediterranean Sea, Southern Italy, Israel, Egypt, Lebanon, and ancient coastal towns along the Levant. The language is also spoken by Greek emigrant communities in many countries in Western Europe, especially the United Kingdom and Germany, in Canada and the United States, Australia, as well as in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and others.[citation needed]
Official status[edit]
Greek is the official language of Greece, where it is spoken by almost the entire population.[11] It is also the official language of Cyprus (nominally alongside Turkish).[12] Because of the membership of Greece and Cyprus in the European Union, Greek is one of the organization's 23 official languages.[13] Furthermore, Greek is officially recognized as a minority language in parts of Italy[citation needed] and Albania,[2] as well as in Armenia, Romania, and Ukraine as a regional or minority language in the framework of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages.[4] Greeks are also a recognized ethnic minority in Hungary.
The phonology, morphology, syntax, and vocabulary of the language show both conservative and innovative tendencies across the entire attestation of the language from the ancient to the modern period. The division into conventional periods is, as with all such periodisations, relatively arbitrary, especially since at all periods, Ancient Greek has enjoyed high prestige, and the literate borrowed heavily from it.
Across its history, the syllabic structure of Greek has varied little: Greek shows a mixed syllable structure, permitting complex syllabic onsets, but very restricted codas. It has only oral vowels and a fairly stable set of consonantal contrasts. The main phonological changes occurred during the Hellenistic and Roman period (see Koine Greek phonology for details), and included:
- replacement of the pitch accent with a stress accent.
- simplification of the system of vowels and diphthongs: loss of vowel length distinction, monophthongization of most diphthongs, and several steps in a chain shift of vowels towards /i/ (iotacism).
- development of the voiceless aspirated plosives /pʰ/ and /tʰ/ to the voiceless fricatives /f/ and /θ/, respectively; the similar development of /kʰ/ to /x/ may have taken place later (these phonological changes are not reflected in the orthography: both the earlier and later phonemes are written with φ, θ, and χ).
- development of the voiced plosives /b/, /d/, /ɡ/ to their voiced fricative counterparts /β/ (later /v/), /ð/, /ɣ/.
In all its stages, the morphology of Greek shows an extensive set of productive derivational affixes, a limited but productive system of compounding,[14] and a rich inflectional system. While its morphological categories have been fairly stable over time, morphological changes are present throughout, particularly in the nominal and verbal systems. The major change in nominal morphology was the loss of the dative case (its functions being largely taken over by the genitive); in the verb, the major change was the loss of the infinitive, with a concomitant rise in new periphrastic forms.
Nouns and adjectives[edit]
Pronouns show distinctions in person (1st, 2nd, and 3rd), number (singular, dual, and plural in the ancient language; singular and plural alone in later stages), and gender (masculine, feminine, and neuter), and decline for case (from six cases in the earliest forms attested to four in the modern language).[15] Nouns, articles, and adjectives show all these distinctions but person. Both attributive and predicative adjectives agree with the noun.
The inflectional categories of the Greek verb have likewise remained largely the same over the course of the language's history, though with significant changes in the number of distinctions within each category and their morphological expression. Greek verbs have synthetic inflectional forms for:
- person — first, second, and third;
- Modern Greek: also second person formal
- number — singular and plural;
- Ancient Greek: dual
- tense — Ancient Greek: present, past, and future;
- Modern Greek: past and non-past (future is expressed by a periphrastic construction)
- aspect — Ancient Greek: imperfective, perfective (traditionally called aorist), and perfect (sometimes also called perfective; see note about terminology);
- Modern Greek: perfective and imperfective
- mood — Ancient Greek: indicative, subjunctive, imperative, and optative;
- Modern Greek: indicative, subjunctive,[16] and imperative (other modal functions are expressed by periphrastic constructions)
- voice — Ancient Greek: active, middle, and passive;
- Modern Greek: active and medio-passive
Many aspects of the syntax of Greek have remained constant: verbs agree with their subject only, the use of the surviving cases is largely intact (nominative for subjects and predicates, accusative for objects of most verbs and many prepositions, genitive for possessors), articles precede nouns, adpositions are largely prepositional, relative clauses follow the noun they modify, and relative pronouns are clause-initial. However, the morphological changes also have their counterparts in the syntax, and there are also significant differences between the syntax of the ancient and that of the modern form of the language. Ancient Greek made great use of participial constructions and of constructions involving the infinitive, while the modern variety lacks the infinitive entirely (instead having a raft of new periphrastic constructions) and uses participles more restrictedly. The loss of the dative led to a rise of prepositional indirect objects (and the use of the genitive to directly mark these as well). Ancient Greek tended to be verb-final, while neutral word order in the modern language is VSO or SVO.
Greek is a language distinguished by an extensive vocabulary. The majority of the vocabulary of ancient Greek was inherited, but it does include a number of borrowings from the languages of the populations that inhabited Greece before the arrival of Proto-Greeks. Words of non-Indo-European origin can be traced into Greek from as early as Mycenaean times; they include a large number of Greek toponyms. The vast majority of Modern Greek vocabulary is directly inherited from ancient Greek, although in some cases words have changed meanings. Words of foreign origin have entered the language mainly from Latin, Venetian and Turkish. During older periods of the Greek language, loan words into Greek acquired Greek inflections, thus leaving only a foreign root word. Modern borrowings (from the 20th century on), especially from French and English, are typically not inflected.
Greek is an independent branch of the Indo-European language family. The ancient languages probably most closely related to it, ancient Macedonian (which many linguistic scholars suggest is a dialect of Greek itself)[17][18] and Phrygian, are not well enough documented to permit detailed comparison. Some Indo-Europeanists claim that Greek seems to be most closely related to Armenian (see also Graeco-Armenian) and the Indo-Iranian languages (see Graeco-Aryan) among the living Indo-European languages.[19][20][21]

Linear B[edit]
Linear B, attested as early as the late 15th century BC, was the first script used to write Greek. It is basically a syllabary, which was finally deciphered by Michael Ventris and John Chadwick in the 1950s (its precursor, Linear A, has not been deciphered to this day). The language of the Linear B texts, Mycenaean Greek, is the earliest known form of Greek.
Cypriot syllabary[edit]
Another similar system used to write the Greek language was the Cypriot syllabary (also a descendant of Linear A via the intermediate Cypro-Minoan syllabary), which is closely related to Linear B but uses somewhat different syllabic conventions to represent phoneme sequences. The Cypriot syllabary is attested in Cyprus from the 11th century BC until its gradual abandonment in the late Classical period, in favor of the standard Greek alphabet.
Greek alphabet[edit]
Greek has been written in the Greek alphabet since approximately the 9th century BC. It was created by modifying the Phoenician alphabet, with the innovation of adopting certain letters to represent the vowels. In classical Greek, as in classical Latin, only upper-case letters existed. The lower-case Greek letters were developed much later by medieval scribes to permit a faster, more convenient cursive writing style with the use of ink and quill. The variant of the alphabet in use today is essentially the late Ionic variant, introduced for writing classical Attic in 403 BC.
The modern Greek alphabet consists of 24 letters, each with a capital (majuscule) and lowercase (minuscule) form. The letter sigma has an additional lowercase form (ς) used in the final position:
capital | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
lower case | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
α | β | γ | δ | ε | ζ | η | θ | ι | κ | λ | μ | ν | ξ | ο | π | ρ | σ/ ς |
τ | υ | φ | χ | ψ | ω |
In addition to the letters, the Greek alphabet features a number of diacritical signs: three different accent marks (acute, grave, and circumflex), originally denoting different shapes of pitch accent on the stressed vowel; the so-called breathing marks (rough and smooth breathing), originally used to signal presence or absence of word-initial /h/; and the diaeresis, used to mark full syllabic value of a vowel that would otherwise be read as part of a diphthong. These marks were introduced during the course of the Hellenistic period. Actual usage of the grave in handwriting saw a rapid decline in favor of uniform usage of the acute during the late 20th century, and it has only been retained in typography.
After the writing reform of 1982, most diacritics are no longer used. Since then, Modern Greek has been written mostly in the simplified monotonic orthography (or monotonic system), which employs only the acute accent and the diaeresis. The traditional system, now called the polytonic orthography (or polytonic system), is still used internationally for the writing of Ancient Greek.
Latin alphabet[edit]
Greek has occasionally been written in the Latin script in the past, especially in areas under Venetian rule or by Greek Catholics (and called Fragolevantinika or Fragochiotika),[citation needed] and recently is often written in Latin script in online communications (called Greeklish).[22]

Awesome Jersey!
By Solomon Jack
from Red Bank, NJ
About Me Die Hard Sports Fan
Comments about Reebok New Jersey Devils Ilya Kovalchuk Accelerator Premier Jersey:
This is a really cool looking jersey. The color scheme catches the eye and it's very stylish. It's basically the same as any Reebok replica jersey and my only two complaints are that the name and numbers are heat pressed, not sewn on and at the moment you can only get it for Kovalchuk. Even with the heat pressed nameplate, I'd get one for every player they made it for. Overall a great jersey!
Love the black ice jersey

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website is investigating two of Chrysler's most popular vehicles, the Ram pickup and the Jeep Grand Cherokee SUV, for safety problems.
The investigations affect up to 230,000 Ram pickups and almost 107,000 Grand Cherokee SUVs.
The rear wheels can lock up in 2009 and 2010 Ram 1500 pickups, potentially causing crashes, while power steering fluid hoses can leak in 2012 Grand Cherokees, possibly causing engine fires, according to the agency.
The agency said it launched the probe into the Ram pickup after receiving a dozen complaints alleging rear differential failures resulting in rear wheel lock-up. "The complaints allege failures at various speeds with eight of the incidents reporting failures at speeds of 35 mph or greater," the agency said.
On the Grand Cherokee, the agency says a hose can leak power steering fluid onto the engine, possibly causing fires.
The agency said it has received one report of power steering hose failure, and two reports of engine compartment fires while the Grand Cherokees were being driven. The cause of the fires has not been determined, it said.
In Canada, the Ram Truck is one the top five best-selling vehicles in the country. In the U.S., the Ram pickup is Chrysler's top-selling vehicle so far this year, while the Grand Cherokee is second.

Nov 20, 20129A great game that really expands on the creativity and imagination of the last games, with more features, and gamepad typing is a huge plus. The nintendo characters are a fun distraction, but the puzzles dont really get as good as in earlier games. However, this is the best scribblenaughts yet.

Nov 19, 20129Very solid game and defiantly the best of the scribblenauts games. The sheer amount of creativity and sandbox in this game provides tons of fun and you'll probably finding yourself trying to figure out just how far you can go with creating objects rather than completing the missions
Nov 25, 201210This is the first scribblenauts game that I have played. It's completely addicting and takes a good imagination to play. I'm completely hooked. Makes great use of the wii u's game pad. In fact, you never really have to look at your tv screen. The only reason I leave the tv on while playing is for my kids to watch (they get a kick out of it too).
Dec 25, 20129I think this game is unbelievably good. It is one of the best sandbox games ever. The infinite ways you can solve a puzzle make it more than interesting and the way you can personalize your character (and even the npcs) makes it even more enjoyable
Jan 3, 201310This is a fun, outgoing, colorful, and creative game. It is ongoing with many different goals to complete. You exercise your brain while playing the game.
May 13, 201382The first thing you do when you start scribbling with Wii U, is to turn of the television. This game is best played with the uPad and unfortunately you are chained to the living room. The game is still good fun, but a home console isn't the best possible platform for this type of game. [May 2013]
Mar 3, 201374This feels oddly divided. [Feb 2013, p.86]
Feb 24, 201380For players with a large vocabulary, Scribblenauts Unlimited can be pretty simplistic and challenges overcome with a modicum of creative thought. However, kids will appreciate the paper-esque sensibility and chance to just do whatever pops into their heads. Good, clean fun all-round.

2 Play Food for 6 Year olds in the WOODEN TOYS Category
When it comes to picking Play Food among all the WOODEN TOYS for kids of all ages, we have a simple, reliable approach. First, we send in our SEAL Team of Child-Experts and they go to work. They look at, play with, and select only the top Play Food. They base their selection on play value, durability, uniqueness, design and safety. Then the Play Food under review must be equal to or better than any of the other Play Food on the site. If they are, they immediately go on the site. If they are not, we dump them. And every year, we get rid of the bottom performers and add, new top Play Food to our selection of WOODEN TOYS.

When many people think about how a DJ enlivens the vibe of an event, they think of beat and rhythm – whether that means these are mixed together in a way that is great for dancing, or, at an event that involves primarily mingling, they are mixed together to create an atmosphere that subtly makes itself welcome with the crowd. However, a DJ's command of melody and mood – especially with the spectrum wildly different melodies and moods found in the immense variety of music New York City clients often request – can be just as or more important to elevating the level of an event.
When we meet with clients to help them plan the musical flow of an event, many know what they would like the overall mood, or at least part of it, to be. Song meaning and lyrics are often not as important. (For more on lyrics and meaning, go here for our first post in this series). These clients don't mind if a song has an ambivalent meaning or may have some lyrics that conflict with the mood of their particular event, just that this doesn't pierce the mood. For example, if a client wants a vibe that features roots reggae tunes to introduce a sunny, mellow vibe, they might not mind if a song here or there has downbeat lyrics, as long as the song fits the overall atmosphere of the event
Mood is important in different ways at different kinds of events. For events that primarily involve mingling – like guest arrivals at fashion shows, or corporate party and wedding cocktail hours and dinners, or in-store promotional events – a mood can be sustained longer and often explored deeper. For events involving dancing, the mood tends to need to be changed more quickly, as crowd feedback to the songs is more direct. If the crowd really likes a change in mood, DJs will likely go with this for a bit, and then after a bit, move on to another mood to keep the anticipation and the energy up. But even here, the mood can be one that can be lingered in. For example, if there is a theme to your event, such as playing 80s music, the DJ can explore the many different sub-moods of this genre, from sexy R & B, to dark synthpop, to edgy punk.
If an event organizer is a bit unsure as to what mood will work best, or if the mood they want to create will work for their guests, we often help by asking what kind of songs the event organizer thinks their guests will like. We can quickly see from the songs or genres given what the most successful moods could likely be, and from there we can work together to fine-tune or introduce new ideas for moods to create based on the organizer's suggestions.
Where mood is an overall element, melody usually comes into play at events as being the "icing on the cake" of the mood. For example, at events where the primary goal is mingling and conversation, the melody makes the mood more specific – offering a festive, or ethereal, or whimsical (and so on) take on the chosen atmosphere. The beat of a song is what people grab onto, but melody is primarily what keeps people's attention at these events. Because subtleties of lyrics are often lost in the noise of conversations, and because a repeated beat can get familiar after a while, a satisfying melody is what rises above to be noticed and latched onto from song to song while not interfering with the mingling. (If you've ever been in a hip restaurant/bar after around 11 p.m. in Manhattan, you will often hear house-ish music that seemingly only has a beat and nothing else over it – it's okay to hear for atmosphere, but kind of boring after a couple hours.) In other words, it's both a good melody and a good beat that makes guests tap their toe or bob their head while waiting for a drink at the bar.
At events that involve dancing, melody is of course more integrated with lyrics and most of all a seductive beat to create mood, but even here, in certain moments, the melody can take the lead. An example of this is when a DJ slyly throws on a cool but obscure cover version of song that he or she thinks the crowd will love. The melody of the original song needs to be somewhat intact for the song to work, especially if the DJ is spinning to crowd that isn't as adventurous or open to quirkiness as club or bar crowds in, say, the East Village or Williamsburg. Another example is when the DJs spins remixes and mash-ups. Whether at a club or at a corporate party, altering songs too much can be frustrating if it ruins the core instrumental or vocal melodies (like riffs and choruses) a crowd craves when partying. Sometimes the mood of an event is one that will call for mostly non-remixed original versions of songs, and sometimes the mood will demand more severe remixes and stylized effects such as loops or wobble bass drops to keep people's attention. A great DJ, no matter where they are playing or at what kind of event they are performing, will tune into the crowd quick and find the level of altering melody that will add to the vibe and not take away from it.
Since each song – and sometimes genres – have their own melodies, and what is a satisfying to one group is sometimes not to another is another reason we consult with the event organizer to see what kinds of songs and genres that their guests might like, and from here we can build a playlist that will use melodies in the ways described in the previous paragraphs to their fullest effect, and to ensure a better chance of creating a great event.

Perfect Combo': Realistic & Accurate
By Richard
from New York, NY
About Me Beginner
This is an amazing gun. I had to put the con of heavy, but only because it is the exact weight of a real gun. I use it outside continuously, but I must say that the wind takes after about ten yards (even if there is no wind). This is my first gun so I would not know, but I wouldn't expect any less from something powered by a spring. IT IS CERTAINLY MORE ACCURATE THEN MY FRIEND'S GUNAll in all, if your looking for accuracy or realism, this is the gun for you

simply because they are old....so the only solution is to switch to nvdia-legacy that works with your cards, no other solution for that except a HUGE regression in kernel and drivers and Xorg and everything....simply get an older version of sabayon because what you want is not supported from nvidia anymorearchwndas wrote:Well that legacy driver is the nvidia-legacy-drivers-1.0.7184.ebuild and this doesn't support Composites and other stuff needed for our purpose. The only driver which does that is:
nvidia-drivers-1.0.9631-r1.ebuild or
but both have problems as after emerging them I end up with a blank screen after typing:
It should work however as I was able to use those drivers in the past with Gentoo on the same laptop. So what is the problem?
Does anybody know?
you assume wrong...smp kernel is automatically disabled when booting if it doesn't find an smp motherboardarchwndas wrote:I assumed that a reason why I get a blank screen with Nvidia drivers is that the default kernel in Sabayon 3.4 x86 is a SMP one while my system is a UP one. So Nvidia with SMP kernel on a UP system may cause problems. You see, this may be the reason why in the past I didn't have problems with those drivers and Gentoo. I had compiled a UP kernel. No SMP at all. So I am recompiling now a new kernel modifying the .config and removing a lot of unneeded stuff in the kernel to make it lighter. I emerged --sync so I am trying with 9639 NVIDIA drivers. If this doesn't work as well then I will consider to try something else.
By the way, I believe, since there are still a lot of UP systems out there that Sabayon should offer the choice of installing a SMP or an UP kernel during the installation.
There are quite a lot of bugs still, but their deserve their own threads.
your nvidia is also supported on nvidia-legacy...you should too emerge nvidia-legacy-driverseshum wrote:My nvidia mx 4000 works without 3d acceleration . I think I'll just let it slide until a new card and or computer comes along.

I ordered this ring with the help of Stacy from customer service. She could not have been more helpful and intelligent. She sat on the phone with me for at least half an hour, and walked me through different wedding bands in my price range. My fiancee loved the ring and plans to wear it everyday on the same finger as her engagement ring. She says it is really comfortable and doesn`t feel too heavy. Overall, this was a phenomenal online shopping experience. I will be back next time I want to buy jewelry and will refer all my friends to your site. Thanks again!

The Food Safety Authority of Ireland has warned about the dangers of wild mushroom foraging as seven people have been poisoned so far this year.
The authority said that 27 varieties of the fungus are toxic. There are 13 highly dangerous species in Ireland which are life threatening and can cause liver and kidney damage, while another 14 native species lead to gastrointestinal upset, it said.
Last year the National Poisons Information Centre of Ireland was notified of 22 cases of food poisoning related to wild mushroom while there have been seven cases so far this year.
Ray Ellard, director of consumer protection, said it is extremely difficult to identify the safe mushrooms growing in the wild, as opposed to the poisonous varieties.

Snakes were a persistant problem in my "previous life". I have neither affection or affinity for them, BUT have seem to have been a snake magnet in my time.

The lesson (as always) is SITUATIONAL AWARENESS. Basic rules are:
Don't mess with them and (generally) they won't mess with you.
Proper footwear as appropriate.
Don't stick your hands in holes or other obviously snakey places (mind the wood pile).
Keep your tent zipped closed when not in use.
Shake your boots out before putting them on.
Be careful when clearing up camp.

Russell's Teapot Red Messenger Bag
Brought to you by RedMolotov T Shirts: cool t-shirts from the masters of sartorial subversion
Catalogue > All > Russell's Teapot > Red Messenger Bag
Russell's Teapot Red Messenger Bag: We're not sure if we really believe in Russell's Teapot, but then we're not sure we believe in God either. And, let's face it, both are equally plausible. "If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is an intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time."

The spicy component returns on the fine-grained, incisive finish. This benefits from air: I'd..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2008 Numanthia spent 18 months in new French oak. It sports an inviting nose of pain grille, graphite, Asian spices, licorice, lavender, and blackberry. In the glass it reveals its voluptuous proportions, savory flavors, and outstanding volume."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Saturated dark ruby. Pungent, stony aromas of cassis, black raspberry, toast and flowers. A step up in intensity. As dense and lush as the regular bottling, but even firmer and more sharply delineated owing to the wine's strong minerality. Still, this offers truly enticing sweetness in the mouth...
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2007 Pintia was sourced from 50% ungrafted Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) vines and aged in 100% new French and American oak.

Hi everyone i m Saurabh, i ve played tribes ascend for a long time and its awsm :) I just wanted to know which mmofps do u play or planning to play....??? |
At this point in terms of FPS I play Halo 4 and Black Ops II. I plan on giving the MMOFPS PlanetSide 2 a try as soon as I can confirm that my computer can run it. I've only heard great things about the game so hopefully i'll be trying it out soon enough. Thanks for the question! |
Yea, I'm not playing any MMOFPSes atm. Halo4 is definitely on the schedule though! |
and ya welcm kirk :) |
thanx :) |
I wanted to check out CS:GO at some point because I used to be heavily into CS years ago, around the 1.6 era. You will see I went overboard on the Halo 4 Yay or Nay forum response, so obviously playing that haha. I wanted to try Black Ops but just don't like the CoD balance as much, even though I generally always enjoy playing it. Just don't have time right now. Never tried a true MMOFPS like Planetside 2 though. It looks crazy cool, such a big environment. |
My roommate and I play CS:GO every once in a while. That's the only game he plays though, he's not a gamer. I try to get him to play other things and he just says no. I do want to play PlanetSide 2 as well, but my laptop won't run it i'm afraid. |
OH, but if I win my fantasy football league, I do plan on buying a new comp. |
Played fantasy football for the first time in my life in a league with 14 other teams. Only missed the playoffs by one game, so I was happy considering I did virtually no research as to who to draft for my fantasy team. |
I've made it to the championship game in 1 of my 4 leagues. Playoffs in 3 of 4. Second round in 2 of 4. Slowly got knocked off. Hopefully I can pull out a win! What was this topic about? Oh, FPS. I shoot stuff. |
Been playing Planetside 2 off and on. Had to stop for awhile, as it seems like whenever I'm on I end up spending some money on it to unlock stuff. I'd rather pay a subscription and get everything. Right now I have the PS2 membership plus still buying stuff. Game is fun though, enjoying it. Not that BF3 is an MMO, but still playing that off and on as well. Was playing War Z, until it flopped. |
Just started Far Cry 3 last night and it is soooooo good, I can't wait to play it more later. |
Hmm I've been playing Far Cry 3, though after a few hours of playing it I haven't played it in awhile. It didn't hold my attention like I thought it might. It's fun, but even on the hardest mode which I selected from the start, haven't found much of a challenge. I was looking forward to the crafting, but in like the first 2 hours I had everything maxed out up to the creature quest for the final upgrade.. did a few but not all of them yet. The story is good though, I'll finish it just to see what happens and all. However the rest of the game at the moment is bla at this point. Taking bases kinda ran it's course and hunting I'm done with, unless I want some quick money. |
I play original Counter Strike 1.6 |
Has anyone else seen that Offensive Combat is playable through facebook?! It's pretty cool that it's so accessible now. |
Yes i heard and play.But now days i have problems with unity engine its keeping crashing over and over |
It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!

Fixed for you sir.
It's the same on both sides, however I'm getting tired of atheists spouting their pride of ability to think for themselves on all forms of social media and I've probably been guilty of it too somewhere. This whole "I'm an atheist because..." that recently rose up from twitter makes you realise both those who believe and those who don't can be utter bellends when it comes to this ageless and tiring discussion.

Automatic Priming - Ready for Operation at any Time
Optional automatic priming offers maximum operating safety in water delivery. If the water column in the suction line is interrupted, the priming pump is tensioned by a spring and priming begins.
Drive belt tensioned: priming pump running
During operation of the fire pump, the pressurized water relaxes the drive belt by means of a water hydraulics cylinder and the priming pump is disabled.
Drive belt relaxed: priming pump disabled
For free-discharge operation, the priming pump can be disabled via a bowden cable.
The system is in use in tens of thousands of locations worldwide and combines convincing ease of use with high levels of efficiency.
