| tonyyarusso | Are there any licenses approved by the FSF and not by the OSI? | 00:58 |
| somerville32 | FSF believes their license is the only true open source license :P | 01:00 |
| mjr | you managed to get two errors in that sentence | 01:00 |
| mjr | way to go | 01:00 |
| somerville32 | mjr, Could you identify the errors please. | 01:02 |
| mjr | 1) The FSF don't care about "open source" 2) even if you substitute "free", it remains factually incorrect | 01:03 |
| mjr | oh wait, 3) The FSF have many licenses | 01:04 |
| somerville32 | Forget I said anything. | 01:05 |
| mjr | easily said and done | 01:06 |

| AndrewB | Hey all you gentoo-ops! | 01:25 |
| jrib | hi, where are they? | 01:25 |
| LjL | sleeping mostly, i suspect | 01:26 |
| AndrewB | I dunno, I just saw on the ML | 01:26 |
| LjL | so you can USE courtesy tomorrow perhaps ;) | 01:26 |
| * somerville32 didn't understand that transaction. | 01:42 | |
| jdong | LjL: was that a gentoo USE flags pun? | 01:44 |
| LjL | jdong: i'm not taking any credit, see ubuntu-irc ML | 01:45 |
| jdong | LjL: still. I wish I had kicking powers in here for that terrible pun ;-) | 01:45 |
| * jdong grins | 01:46 | |
| LjL | kick seveas then | 01:46 |
| jdong | LjL: hehe I think I'd get a lot of fireworks if I did that ;-) | 01:47 |
| LjL | and who said you don't if you kick me? >: | 01:47 |
| jdong | upon reflection, I've realized I have made more bad puns in #*buntu* :) | 01:47 |
| jdong | LjL: yeah yeah, that too :) | 01:47 |
| jdong | ah, done with homework for the entire week. And I have a long weekend. Boy do I feel happy right now | 01:49 |
| somerville32 | I met a guy once who could make puns out of everything. | 01:49 |
| tonyyarusso | we have visitors? | 01:49 |
| LjL | i met a guy once who could make innuendos out of everything | 01:49 |
| somerville32 | tonyyarusso, And you're not a very good host. Where are the cookies and juice? | 01:49 |
| tonyyarusso | somerville32: umm....the boy scouts ate them yesterday | 01:50 |
| tonyyarusso | oops | 01:50 |
| LjL | tonyyarusso: sleeping ones | 01:50 |
| tonyyarusso | LjL: ah | 01:50 |
| jdong | LjL: I'm like a cross between those two guys. | 01:50 |
| jdong | LjL: rather, I have both of those guys in me. | 01:50 |

| jdong | ok, why does that hostmask worry me. | 01:51 |
| jdong | anyone? :) | 01:51 |
| LjL | jdong: yeah | 01:51 |
| jdong | errrrr /whois confirms. | 01:52 |
| LjL | jdong: look at the real name | 01:52 |
| jdong | yeah | 01:52 |
| jdong | just saw | 01:52 |
| LjL | he was talking in #gentoo | 01:52 |
| LjL | asking how to install and stuff | 01:52 |
| LjL | (he was told that if he wanted something simple he should use ubuntu *grin*) | 01:52 |
| jdong | LjL: that's not as bad as somerville32's taunt :) | 01:53 |
| * jdong pastebins | 01:53 | |

| jdong | 20:46 < somerville32> Please see #ubuntu for user support and #ubuntu-ops for operators. | 01:53 |
| jdong | haha. | 01:53 |
| somerville32 | lol | 01:54 |
| LjL | jdong: it's ##unavailable for operators | 01:54 |
| jdong | LjL: it sure is :) | 01:54 |
| jdong | and who's "nicio" now? | 01:55 |
| jdong | there's so many names in this story I can't keep up anymore | 01:55 |
| LjL | jdong: yet, while he changes nicks and idents and all, there's always *something* he leaves as a clue to its former identities | 01:56 |
| LjL | i said "its"? | 01:56 |
| LjL | i swear it wasn't intentional. | 01:56 |
| jdong | LjL: I'm pretty sure he does it on purpose | 01:56 |
| jdong | LjL: his realname has changed from last time. | 01:56 |
| LjL | jdong: it's the only logical conclusion. | 01:56 |
| LjL | jdong: it sure has, since "mii" anyway is something he only came up after being banned a few times already | 01:57 |
| LjL | s/up/up with/ | 01:57 |
| jdong | didn't he once join a client with each, and exchange wii! and mii!'s for half a page? :) | 01:57 |
| somerville32 | lmO | 01:57 |
| LjL | i don't remember that... but he might have | 01:58 |
| jdong | I'd really like to meet some of these people in real life. I wonder if they are clever jokers or genuinely dysfunctional.... | 01:58 |
| jdong | there are seriously times that I don't believe the latter | 01:58 |
| somerville32 | lol | 01:58 |
| LjL | jdong: uhm, i know some people *in real life* i wonder the same about | 02:01 |
| LjL | so i'm not entirely sure RL would even help | 02:01 |
| jdong | LjL: point made :) | 02:01 |
| jdong | LjL: for the sake of remaining optimistic for our species, I always calm myself by saying they are just clever witty people wanting a laugh. | 02:02 |
| LjL | jdong: clever witty people wanting a laugh collect #ubuntu quotes | 02:02 |
| somerville32 | Do we have a database of quotes? | 02:03 |
| jdong | somerville32: the bantracker? ;-) | 02:04 |
| somerville32 | lol | 02:04 |
| LjL | nah. you'll have to scroll back in -offtopic... if you aren't there, too bad for you :> | 02:05 |
| * jdong is probably in -ot | 02:05 | |
| jdong | as long as ops was called in there since the last reboot :) | 02:05 |
| LjL | you are in there | 02:05 |
| LjL | which reminds me... | 02:06 |
| LjL | no, i'm too tired for setting up complicated banforwards | 02:06 |
| jdong | hehe lucky for me | 02:06 |
| jdong | what do circular banforwards actually do? | 02:06 |
| LjL | jdong: that's a good question you should have thought better before asking | 02:07 |
| somerville32 | lol | 02:07 |
| jdong | other than make a lot of staff angry at me? :) | 02:07 |
| LjL | uhm, and at me i guess. there's a point. | 02:07 |
| jdong | so does it actually try sending the clients in a loop or is the ircd smart enough to notice? | 02:08 |
| LjL | i'll tell you in a moment | 02:09 |
| LjL | or, depending on what happens, i won't | 02:09 |
| jdong | haha | 02:10 |
| LjL-Temp | or even, perhaps the server decides to start lagging me as hell before i can even try | 02:10 |
| LjL-Temp | [03:10:59] [470] ##ljl ##metabot Forwarding to another channel | 02:11 |
| LjL-Temp | [03:10:59] [470] ##metabot ##ljl Forwarding to another channel | 02:11 |
| LjL-Temp | [03:10:59] [470] ##ljl ##metabot Forwarding to another channel | 02:11 |
| LjL-Temp | [03:10:59] [513] Maximum forwarding reached | 02:11 |
| LjL-Temp | [03:10:59] [474] ##metabot You're banned from that channel | 02:11 |
| jdong | O_O | 02:11 |
| jdong | so at some point in a forward chain, it gives up and considers it a ban. | 02:11 |
| LjL | jdong: i suspect it wasn't in the original design, but was introduced after some server crash :) | 02:12 |
| jdong | LjL: :) | 02:12 |
| LjL | bit like ubotu's circular alias protection ;) | 02:12 |

| compu73rg33k | oh nvm so they want me to connect through port 8001 instead eh | 06:47 |
| nalioth | let's see | 06:47 |

| fr00d | Hello! | 07:31 |
| fr00d | I'd like to ask for an ubuntu cloak at freenode. I'm operator in #ubuntu-de and I should have one so our bot can recognize me as admin. | 07:32 |
| ompaul | ubuntu cloaks are only available to ubuntu members however | 07:32 |
| ompaul | !proxy | 07:32 |
| ubotu | #ubuntu and related channels prohibit access from proxy servers due to a high level of abuse. Project cloaks allowed: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 07:32 |
| ubotu | Attention tor users. You may think you are anonymous, but you are not. Please visit http://tor.unixgu.ru/ and see for yourself. Please evaluate your need to use tor here on irc. If you wish anonymity, Freenode offers cloaks of many different types. http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 07:32 |
| ompaul | http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 07:32 |
| ompaul | you can get a unique cloak with that url ^^ | 07:33 |
| ompaul | fr00d, actually more specifically: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup | 07:34 |
| fr00d | Of course.. I'd like to have an ubuntu cloak and I'd like to get an ubuntu member. | 07:36 |
| ompaul | fr00d that information is on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewMemberHowto | 07:36 |
| fr00d | So I think I've just wait for an answer of my inquiry. | 07:36 |

| Tm_T | somerville32: there's been a LOT of random idlers behind tor lately | 11:17 |
| Tm_T | somerville32: you cant get a single word out of them | 11:17 |
| elkbuntu | Tm_T, you're not an offtopic op, are you? | 11:19 |
| Tm_T | what offtopic channel? | 11:19 |
| Tm_T | #ubuntu-offtopic ? no | 11:20 |
| Tm_T | #kubuntu-offtopic yes | 11:20 |
| Tm_T | elkbuntu: I have had several frustration moments in #ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic because of (my) lack of op powers | 11:21 |
| somerville32 | Tm_T, I've only been logging with this computer for the last week or so | 11:22 |
| Tm_T | somerville32: aye | 11:23 |
| somerville32 | Tm_T, but I can see 12 different nicknames with a tor mask. | 11:23 |
| Tm_T | yes | 11:23 |
| Tm_T | some of them are real people I'm sure | 11:23 |
| Tm_T | some maybe not | 11:23 |
| Tm_T | I became suspicious after several tor idlers started ping timeout and reconnect simultaneously | 11:23 |
| somerville32 | A lot of them have the same nick but #'s appended. | 11:24 |
| somerville32 | And number is actually 14 | 11:24 |
| Tm_T | heh | 11:24 |
| Tm_T | somerville32: see them speaking too? | 11:26 |
| Tm_T | nalioth: that hoora fellow is becoming hilarious | 11:28 |
| somerville32 | Tm_T, None of them. | 11:29 |
| somerville32 | No one with a tor mask has spoken. | 11:29 |
| Tm_T | "whopsie" | 11:29 |
| Tm_T | somerville32: if any of them is currently with you in some channel, try to get some noise out of them, just for fun :-p | 11:30 |
| somerville32 | If you picked a command to operate a bot, what would it be? | 11:31 |
| Tm_T | ? | 11:31 |
| somerville32 | I'm thinking if you communicate with these people the "right way" they might respond | 11:31 |

| Hobbsee | you might want to be more mature in the future, and think about your actions. | 11:39 |
| Hobbsee | else, you will see us again and again | 11:39 |

| Amaranth | hey | 15:34 |
| stefg | Hi, would you consider this a linkable resource for a factoid? http://bapoumba.wordpress.com/2007/10/29/common-bugs-in-gutsy-with-workarounds/ | 17:14 |
| jdong | stefg: I don't like factoids with a shotgun-scatter of relevance | 17:15 |
| jdong | stefg: it'd be better to make individual factoids with the useful information. | 17:16 |
| jdong | one for each important issue | 17:16 |
| stefg | ok... VT's missing is most important | 17:16 |
| jdong | yeah, a factoid about that is good | 17:17 |
| jdong | the other stuff seems questionable in relevance to me | 17:17 |
| jdong | for example, the USB automount bug is CAUSED by running a Feisty kernel on Gutsy | 17:18 |
| stefg | !novt is No Virtual Terminals in Gutsy? see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=582962 for a workaround | 17:18 |
| jdong | which is not a good idea for so many other reasons | 17:18 |
| ubotu | In #ubuntu-ops, stefg said: !novt is No Virtual Terminals in Gutsy? see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=582962 for a workaround | 17:18 |
| jdong | stefg: can you isolate that link to a specific post with the solution? | 17:18 |
| jdong | it's kinda annoying to send users to a thread where the answers seem to be 8 or 9 down | 17:18 |
| PriceChild | Isnt' there a novt factoid already? | 17:22 |
| jdong | !novt | 17:23 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about novt - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 17:23 |
| Pici | Perhaps you're thinking of !ttyerror | 17:24 |
| Pici | !test | 18:00 |
| ubotu | Failed. | 18:01 |
| ompaul | yeah I had to change the topic in -offtopic I actually have logs to prove I saw that | 20:13 |
| ompaul | but I think I would not like to publish them | 20:13 |
| Pici | hum? | 20:13 |
| ompaul | Pici, check topic next door | 20:13 |
| ompaul | Pici, I saw that and blinked several times it did not go away | 20:14 |
| Pici | There was someone earlier today who wanted to know how to add universe to yum | 20:15 |
| Pici | 10:46:35 <_hp_> how do i add the universe repository using command line, i am using yum and the only documentation i can find is for apt | 20:15 |
| Pici | 11:04:27 <_hp_> can one of you send me the universe part of your /etc/yum.repos.d ? | 20:15 |
| PriceChild | ompaul, which bit? | 20:16 |
| ompaul | PriceChild, the last bit | 20:16 |
| PriceChild | google hq bit? | 20:16 |
| ompaul | no | 20:16 |
| ompaul | after that | 20:16 |
| somerville32 | hmm? | 20:17 |
| PriceChild | <$user> think i messed with some setting... | 20:17 |
| ompaul | PriceChild, yeap | 20:17 |
| PriceChild | ahhhhh sorry I get it now | 20:17 |
| PriceChild | I thought you were going on about someone maliciously changing the topic | 20:17 |
| Pici | Me too | 20:18 |
| PriceChild | I love jdong's sig on the forums atm... | 20:18 |
| ompaul | PriceChild, share - if suitable | 20:18 |
| PriceChild | < Toxicity999> I think I often know better than apt | 20:18 |
| PriceChild | < Toxicity999> and often I am wrong. | 20:18 |
| PriceChild | titled, "A user's lesson with manually monkeying around with apt's domain..." | 20:18 |
| jdong | hehe. | 20:18 |
| PriceChild | The "monkeying" bit just makes it for me. | 20:19 |
| ompaul | but it is linux you can do anything you want .... correct ...... but it may not work afterwards | 20:19 |
| ompaul | ohh | 20:19 |
| ompaul | :) | 20:19 |
| PriceChild | @now | 20:21 |
| ompaul | 20:25 | 20:22 |
| * ompaul wonders when I become a bot | 20:22 | |
| PriceChild | ompaul, ubotu replies in pm | 20:23 |
| ompaul | :) | 20:23 |
| ompaul | no0tic, you like being here twice ;-) | 20:28 |
| === no0tic_ is now known as no0tic | ||
| ubotu | In ubotu, tobi said: what is dejavu | 21:10 |
| LjL | !bot > tobi (tobi, see the private message from Ubotu) | 21:15 |
| somerville32 | We should have a factoid for people asking for help "cracking" | 21:19 |
| nalioth | we do. !coc or !guidelines | 21:21 |
| LjL | !piracy | 21:22 |
| ubotu | piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o | 21:22 |
| somerville32 | I was thinking there should be something specific to address people asking for help breaking into accounts :P | 21:22 |
| somerville32 | LjL, looks good | 21:22 |
| somerville32 | !piracy is <alias> cracking | 21:22 |
| ubotu | In #ubuntu-ops, somerville32 said: !piracy is <alias> cracking | 21:22 |
| LjL | other way around | 21:22 |
| LjL | !cracking is <alias> piracy | 21:23 |
| ubotu | I'll remember that, LjL | 21:23 |
| somerville32 | thanks | 21:23 |
| === no0tic_ is now known as no0tic | ||
| sladen_ | Please can we kill the #ubuntu-unregged business | 22:57 |
| === sladen_ is now known as sladen | ||
| sladen | I think it's starting to be a case of the system trying to be too clever | 22:58 |
| PriceChild | sladen, no-one else has been "caught"? | 22:58 |
| sladen | PriceChild: lucky that somebody who has half an idea what's going on "found" it then | 22:58 |
| sladen | PriceChild: we'll never know how much genuine users might have been caught and left confused aswell | 22:59 |
| PriceChild | We also managed to dump 5 spammers in there the other day who would have disrupted #ubuntu before their k-line | 22:59 |
| PriceChild | I do not believe that it is our fault you're ending up in -unregged :/ | 22:59 |
| Pici | I'm confused. | 22:59 |
| Pici | I thought people only got stuck in unregged if we set +r or +R? | 23:00 |
| * Pici has a bad memory for modes | 23:00 | |
| crdlb | Pici: join throttling | 23:00 |
| nalioth | Pici: #ubuntu is currently +J | 23:00 |
| Pici | Ah.. | 23:00 |
| PriceChild | sladen, is there any chance you could check your server window just to see when/why you ended up in -unregged? | 23:28 |
| PriceChild | When you get forwarded, there'll be a message there. | 23:28 |
| sladen | PriceChild: can't see any, I did a /close #ubuntu-unregged (window disappeared) and I only log privmsgs | 23:30 |
| sladen | if it happens again, I'll keep more debugging information | 23:30 |
| PriceChild | Ok cool thanks, I think it could be quite useful to know that to figure out why you're being singled out. | 23:31 |
