| jdong | is it just an empty channel? | 00:29 |

| stdin | !lag | 01:36 |
| ubotu | You have lag, I don't have lag | 01:36 |
| stdin | seems ok | 01:36 |
| Seeker` | it took 4 seconds to answer LjL's !language in #ubuntu | 01:37 |
| LjL | 4 seconds is quite normal if someone else was using it too | 01:37 |
| LjL | keep in mind it also churns out bug reports to the dev channels | 01:37 |
| * Seeker` wonders if he should go back to lurking a bit, so that he doesn't ask quite so many "silly" questions | 01:38 | |
| ubotu | astro76 called the ops in #ubuntu | 01:51 |
| ubotu | DaSkreech called the ops in #kubuntu | 02:00 |
| LjL | stdin: or rather, he was, since i pissed him off it seems and he claims he won't rejoin | 02:06 |
| stdin | LjL: oh? well if he's in a mood I'll leave him to it | 02:07 |
| LjL | stdin: yeah. i've been an asshole to daskreech to be honest | 02:07 |
| LjL | but intellikey was just spamming | 02:07 |
| LjL | AT0M1CB0MB3R smells like trouble to me | 02:09 |
| stdin | yeah, it may have been a bug in his client (as has happened before), but if he can't be grown-up about it... | 02:09 |
| LjL | stdin: eh? it was intelikey having the auto-repeat bug? | 02:10 |
| stdin | something like that, but Agent_Bob is normally his GUI user, so I'm just guessing | 02:10 |
| stdin | but I'm not going to delve in to it for now | 02:11 |
| LjL | uhm well i am though | 02:11 |
| stdin | didn't say you couldn't ;) I'm just sitting here with my hot coco | 02:12 |
| LjL | [03:13:10] <Agent_bob> no big deal. don't worry about it. | 02:15 |
| LjL | [03:14:24] <Agent_bob> i'm dropping my two nicks as we speak. it's been nice. but i need to move on. shalom. | 02:15 |
| stdin | hmm | 02:15 |
| LjL | well i'm sorry but really, his problem, he spammed, and spamming to prove a point to another spammer is arguably the wrost form of spamming | 02:17 |
| LjL | so my kick was warranted. if he's had a bad day, i'm sorry but. | 02:18 |
| stdin | yeah, I'm not trying to defend him. that's why I didn't want to get involved | 02:18 |
| stdin | it's a shame he decided to be like that, was a good guy | 02:18 |
| LjL | besides, my kick to daskreech was admittedly *not* warranted, and yet he didn't react like that | 02:19 |
| stdin | but it's his problem in the end, so be it | 02:19 |

| ompaul | call it one thing and advertise that | 14:29 |
| ompaul | adeptfix | 14:29 |
| * ompaul wonders why this is not obvious | 14:29 | |
| ThunderStruck | personally i would make it more general since it works for dpkg not just adept | 14:29 |
| LjL-Temp | ompaul: because the original name was adept crash fix, so some people got used to it, but it's certainly a non-optimal way for a factoid that gets called often. | 14:30 |
| LjL-Temp | besides, it should really be changed, it's not adept-only | 14:30 |
| ThunderStruck | its not adept at all | 14:30 |
| ompaul | well what condition does it sort out@ | 14:30 |
| ThunderStruck | ompaul, lock on dpkg | 14:30 |
| LjL-Temp | !aptlock is <reply> If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 14:31 |

| LjL | oh | 16:37 |
| * Tm_T hides | 16:37 | |
| LjL | Seveas: i'm also joining chanserv into -effects then | 16:38 |
| LjL | ah no dbo is the contact there | 16:39 |
| Seveas | (guard doesn't help against channel emptiness) | 16:39 |
| Seveas | you need a staffer to set +Pif #compiz-fusion (+P is staff-only) | 16:39 |
| LjL | Seveas: uhm, i think you're wrong... i have ##metabot forwarded to #metabot, and it stays forwarded even if empty, with chanserv guard on | 16:40 |
| Seveas | then that changed since I last tried :) | 16:40 |
| tomaw | chanserv won't rejoin empty channels | 16:40 |
| tomaw | so if services are restarted then the forward won't function for the first joiner. | 16:41 |
| LjL | Seveas: it works | 16:41 |
| LjL | tomaw: i see | 16:41 |
| Seveas | -ChanServ- Toggled ChanGuard for channel #ubuntu-effects [ON] | 16:41 |
| Seveas | -ChanServ- Now enforcing modes [+sntcif #compiz-fusion] for #ubuntu-effects | 16:41 |
| LjL | Seveas: yes i saw, i was in there | 16:41 |
| Seveas | ok :) | 16:41 |
| LjL | i'll leave ubotwo in anyway to try to get around the first-joiner thing | 16:46 |
| wolferine | is there no #ubuntu-effects channel anymore ? | 17:56 |
| Pici | wolferine: no, we've joined up with the #compiz-fusion people, you can join there for support | 17:57 |
| wolferine | they feel my question is out of their range | 17:58 |
| wolferine | is that correct Amaranth ? | 17:58 |
| Amaranth | wolferine: Yes but it's not compiz | 17:58 |
| Amaranth | Your question wouldn't be valid for the old #ubuntu-effects either | 17:59 |
| Amaranth | It was only compiz/beryl stuff | 17:59 |
| wolferine | everyone else is asking xorg.conf related questions in the channel | 17:59 |
| Pici | wolferine: Your question is perfectly on-topic for #ubuntu | 17:59 |
| Amaranth | wolferine: Your question is about an Ubuntu-specific program | 17:59 |
| wolferine | I dont see you 'explaining' the channel to them, nor kicking them ? | 17:59 |
| Amaranth | The other guy's question is related to getting compiz working | 17:59 |
| wolferine | my question is not about a 'Ubuntu-specific program' | 18:00 |
| Amaranth | Yes it is | 18:00 |
| Amaranth | displayconfig-gtk is only in ubuntu | 18:00 |
| wolferine | no, its about seeting up the display correctly | 18:00 |
| wolferine | ie. xorg | 18:00 |
| Amaranth | "I love the new interface for setting up the display" | 18:00 |
| Amaranth | Either way | 18:00 |
| Amaranth | This is in no way related to Ubuntu so this isn't the right channel for such a dispute either | 18:01 |
| Amaranth | #compiz-fusion is not an Ubuntu run channel | 18:01 |
| wolferine | I complemented on the new interface, but the question is not specific to that, "but can I do this with it, or I have a bug in using it, etc.." | 18:01 |
| wolferine | fine, where do you want to discuss it? | 18:01 |
| Amaranth | No where | 18:01 |
| Amaranth | I don't know the answer to your question anyway :p | 18:01 |
| wolferine | then why waste both our time? | 18:02 |
| Amaranth | Use nvidia-settings | 18:02 |
| Amaranth | If you're not using nvidia you can't use compiz with that screen resolution anyway so it's definitely not a compiz question | 18:02 |
| Amaranth | wolferine: Because the ops there are complaining about everyone asking for help with Ubuntu | 18:02 |
| wolferine | why are you 'attempting' to 'help' me ? | 18:02 |
| Amaranth | So we're rather strict | 18:03 |
| wolferine | well, someone set the forward from #ubuntu-effects to your channel | 18:03 |
| wolferine | I have nothing to do with that | 18:03 |
| wolferine | maybe you should let them know your getting 'offtopic' traffic | 18:03 |
| Amaranth | It does mean you need to follow the rules of the channel | 18:03 |
| Amaranth | And they know | 18:04 |
| wolferine | well, if #ubuntu-effects is redirected there, then why would I not ask a question I would ask in #ubuntu-effects ? | 18:04 |
| Amaranth | Your question wouldn't be valid for the old #ubuntu-effects either, that was only for compiz and beryl help | 18:04 |
| Amaranth | Well, and awn, kiba dock, etc but those are alright in #compiz-fusion too | 18:05 |
| wolferine | your obviously having a hard time with understand this whole situation | 18:05 |
| wolferine | and not willing to help | 18:05 |
| Amaranth | I don't think I am | 18:05 |
| Amaranth | *sigh* | 18:05 |
