epimethhello guys... who wants to unset my forwarding to ##fix_your_connection ?00:30
naliothwhre were you forwarded from, epimeth ?00:32
naliothand is your connection problem fixed?00:33
epimeth#kubuntu and #kubuntu-ot00:33
epimethit only happens when I'm not home, so I don't know!00:33
epimethwhen I'm active, I'm on00:33
epimeththen I get home and there are messages from people telling me I keep disconnected and reconnected00:33
naliothright.00:34
naliothyou're good to go ( and maybe consider a remote host or a bnc for when you're not home )00:34
PiciPerhaps you should just part the channels you're in when you arent home, that way you can still get messages, just not disrupt channels00:34
epimethwhile that is true, I don't always remember to do so :-)00:35
epimethwhats a bnc?00:35
naliotha bouncer00:35
epimethhmm00:36
epimethmeh... I'll just try and remember to quit00:37
epimethI don't have a host I can install a bnc onto00:37
epimethI'll write a script that pings my gateway, dns, and freenode.  maybe I'll catch the problem and compain to time warner :-)00:40
epimethanyway, nalioth, cheers!00:40
naliothdon't waste your time complaining to TW/comcast00:44

gnomefreakme too and it looks alot like hardy support10:15
gnomefreakhe cant get remote desktop to work10:16
ikoniagnomefreak: isn't that cloack an IBM as in "big blue" cloak ?10:24
gnomefreakhuh sorry still sleepy what do you mean IBM cloak?10:25
ikoniachatzill@nat/ibm/x-614f68137cd29f4210:25
gnomefreaknot really sure, but x-..... reminds me of tor10:26
gnomefreakthey way freenode does tor now atleast10:26
ikoniaI wondered if nat@ibm was a known nat address from ibm's network10:26
gnomefreakthe ibm part not sure10:26
ikoniamaybe just a unfortuanate naming policy for a non ibm10:27
gnomefreakis nat nat or nathanel10:27
gnomefreaknat as in a set of connected pcs10:27
ikoniaahh I was thinking "net address trans, ibm network"10:27
* gnomefreak not really sure wher eis he?10:27
ikoniaas in companies have small ranges assigned for things like irc10:27
jpdsikonia: I think it's just the cloak that gets applied to people using the IBM gateway.10:29
ikoniajpds: as in IBM - big blue10:29
jpdsYeah.10:29
ikoniawhat is the requirments to use that gateway10:30
ikoniaeg: do they have to be on IBM's network ?10:30
jpdsConnect from behind it I guess.10:30
ikoniaso basiclly that guy who flooded was an IBM employee10:30
jpdsPossibly, that's why I pointed it out.10:31
ikoniaoh, he's still in there10:32
dmseg_Please inform me when pricechild is online (when is he online?)11:01

* Myrtti rolls her eyes11:23
dmsegpricechild: i hav to go sorry will talk later thankx bye11:26
jussi01right...11:26
jussi01who was that? Ive never seen him before11:26
ikoniawas he the guy from the other network that ran a linux channel for years, now it's closed down11:30
ikoniaif it's him he's been in a few times11:30
ikoniathere was some catch like he said he'd been here for years but his nick was registered for like a month11:30
ikoniasomething like that11:30
ikoniais that him ?11:30
elkbuntuikonia, i think so11:34
elkbuntumy brain has filed him into the 'used ubuntu for 10 years' category for some reason, so it could have been the case11:34
jussi01yet he doesnt even use tab completion?11:35
ikoniathe guy who I am talking about wasn't very linux aware, there was a conversation in here about it, someone who was in a linux channel for $X years11:37
ikoniaif you remember we all started comparing how long our nicks had been registered11:37
Hobbseeimpressive split.  welcome back everyone!13:10
jussi01Hobbsee: meh, you were the one who left.... and it wasnt impressive here :P13:12
