Ampelbeinhi. it's me again. there is another problem with factoids that i don't know how to resolve. apparently, there is a spelling mistake. the factoid !alcarte should be known as !alacarte00:44
PiciAmpelbein: Thanks.  I don't think we even need that factoid anymore though. The link is dead and alacarte comes install with ubuntu-desktop00:46
Piciubottu: forget alcarte00:46
ubottuI'll forget that, Pici00:46
AmpelbeinPici: i think you are right.00:46
PiciAmpelbein: Right click on the default menu applet in gnome and go to edit menus gives you alacarte00:47
Ampelbeini'll wade through other factoids to see what i can correct. did you get the 3dchess thingie?00:47
AmpelbeinPici: i do know that. check the last uploaders for alacarte ;-)00:47
PiciAmpelbein: Ah :)00:49
AmpelbeinPici: oh, and !smeg should be deleted also.00:49

Picivertix: You seem to have quite a few entries here, one moment.02:00
ubottueseven73 called the ops in #ubuntu (Macb0t)02:12
Picivertix: While the original ban in #ubuntu was for a relatively minor issue, it seems that your behavior in #ubuntu-ops has impacted your chances of being unbanned in #ubuntu02:15
LjLPici: interesting, macb0t seems to be joining about the same channels that yesterday's bot joined02:17
PiciLjL: Interesting indeed.  different hosts though..02:19
LjLPici: happen to have f1shb0t's owner's whois?02:20
LjLPici: i believe the nick "macbutt" is linked to macb0t, too (although different address). they join/part channels almost together.02:23
PiciLjL: This is all I got from the other day: http://paste.ubuntu.com/175305/02:23
LjLPici: thanks, that's useful. he's got one channel in common with antitab02:24
Picivertix: If theres nothing you'd like to discuss now, I know you're aware of our channel policy regarding idling.02:29
LjLPici: FWIW, i can assure that neither macb0t nor its owner would have a valid reason to be in help channels in the near future.02:59

ikoniamorning all10:09
vertixPici, I don't know what are you talking about when you say: vertix: While the original ban in #ubuntu was for a relatively minor issue, it seems that your behavior in #ubuntu-ops has impacted your chances of being unbanned in #ubuntu10:37
Flannelvertix: He meants exactly that.10:37
vertixwhat specifically in terms of "behavior" are you talking about?10:38
vertixFlannel, I have no idea what are you talking about in terms if "behavior"10:38
vertixAll I did here is try to address the issue of totally inappropriate ban, which is nothing more than abuse of authority by the OP, who should have been deopped from #ubuntu for doing things like that10:39
vertixand one more time: I have also been humiliated, laughed at, insulted right here by some of ops10:40
Flannelvertix: volumes could be written on it.  However, I'll give you one and a half examples:  The fact that you insisted on returning here and repeating the same things a number of times, after being told to wait until certain parties were around.  And then continued to return and idle, even after it's been made extremely clear to you that you're not to do that.10:40
vertixok, those parties were around and you had a chance to discuss that ban10:41
vertixcan you tell me what are the results and what actions have been taken by the "board"?10:41
vertixthis chan is on auto join. whenever I have to reboot, it joins10:42
Flannelvertix: I don't have that information, no.  However I can tell you that as it stands now, your ban in #ubuntu will not be removed.  As was already mentioned.10:42
Flannelvertix: You should remove that autojoin.10:42
vertixI would like to see what is done on behalf of public in this channel and how YOU "behave" serving the interests of those, who placed you here as ops10:42
vertixwhy should I remove that autojoin?10:43
Madpilotubottu, idle | vertix 10:43
ubottuvertix: Please keep in mind that this channel is for operator/abuse questions only; we ask you to part when you have no further business here in order to keep track of users with pending inquiries.10:43
ikoniajust put a ban on him in here10:43
ikoniahe's been asked enough times10:43
Madpilotthat reason, perhaps?10:43
vertixWhat is so secret about this chan that is supposed to supervise the op's behavior on #ubuntu according to public information?10:43
Flannelvertix: You're entirely welcome to do that.  However, as was already stated a number of times, this channel is not to be idled in.  You should only join it when you have something to discuss, which is not the same as "whenever I turn on my computer"10:43
Flannelvertix: Nothing.  This channel is logged.  This has been explained to you.10:43
vertixI am talking exactly about op's abuse10:43
Flannelvertix: We're talking about you honoring our channel policies.10:44
vertixone more time: how come this chan is not allowed to be logged by public10:44
Flannelvertix: It is logged, publically.10:45
Myrttiwhy would it need to be logged by john mundane when it's already logged officially?10:45
vertixthe logs could be doctored easily and whatever is done behind the doors remains unknown to public10:45
vertixI will discuss the channel policies in appropriate places in due time10:45
* Madpilot hands vertix a tin-foil hat. Pull it down right around your ears, now.10:46
vertixFlannel, I have seen doctored logs from other channels and have 100% confidence in my findings. Because I also had a log10:46
Flannelvertix: I'm sure you do.10:46
MyrttiMy good faith is really streched to the limits10:47
Flannelvertix: Is there anything else we can help you with today?  If not, please don't idle here.10:47
vertixand that is what you do here? serving public insterest? Madpilot hands vertix a tin-foil hat. Pull it down right around your ears, now.10:47
vertixand you talk about MY "behavior"?10:47
Flannelvertix: Good afternoon vertix.  Hope you have a wonderful day.10:47
vertixyou did not help me with ANYTHING, did not specifically answer my valid questions about anything and now you are simply forcing me out before doing ANYTHING10:48
vertixthat is why I asked you before: what is happening in this channels behind the closed door?10:49
Flannelvertix: No, I told you that I don't have that information, nor do I know who does.  Nor will you be unbanned from #ubuntu, as was mentioned to you.10:49
vertixFlannel, that is what I am hearing from the day one of that utterly inappropriate band, that is nothing more than abuse of power and authority10:50
Flannelvertix: This channel, much to your chagrin, does not bend to your every whim.  I'm sorry if you've been treated that way in your life thus far, but it's time for you to wake up and experience the real world.10:50
Flannelvertix: Here's a hint for you to take with you:  In the world, the manner in which you go about attempting to exact change is as important, if not more so, than the change you hope to enact.10:50
vertixand now, you, who was GIVEN this authority to protect the public interest, are simply laughing at the victim, and, after all this time, you had to examine the issue, you still do not answer the specific questions10:51
Myrttivertix: we've tried to answer them, but you seem to be ignoring them and bending the answers to your own will10:52
vertixFlannel, I don't need teachers about "real world" or "real life". You can follow your own advice10:52
vertixFlannel, is this a psychology school of behavioral analysis here?10:53
vertixI do not recall a single specific answer on any of valid questions i presented10:53
Flannelvertix: Sure you do.  Pici said things plainly: you won't be unbanned in the near future, because you're shooting yourself in the foot now.10:54
vertixi can see several people coming at me with insults, ridicule and totally inappropriate behavior10:54
Myrttivertix: you've been told that while this channel is being publically logged, we prefer to keep this channel vacant from idlers, so that any given issue given to us can be handled individually10:54
vertixand not a single specific answer has been presented to day as logs will show when published in full10:54
Flannelvertix: Feel free to do so.  We already do.10:55
Myrttisomething must be lost in translation here, I didn't understand that sentence10:55
vertixbut you are serving the PUBLIC interest here and policies for YOUR behavior are outlined quite specifically10:55
FlannelMyrtti: He's going to publish the logs of this channel, to show that we're as unhelpful as he says we are.10:55
vertixyes10:56
Myrttioh ok.10:56
Myrttiwell it's a good thing we've got the public logs as well10:56
vertixexactly that for one thing. not only unhelpful, bur harassing and abusing the authority bestowed upon thee10:56
Tm_Tme too?10:56
Madpilotyou mean the public logs that /already/ publish everything said in this channel?10:56
vertixMyrtii, but your logs are doctored I bet, as I have seen on some other channels10:57
vertixhow does anybody know that your logs are genuine?10:57
Flannelvertix: Did you have anything else to add to the discussion today?  As we've said a few times, we've heard this before.  We'd prefer it if you only came here to bestow new information upon us.10:57
gnomefreakvertix: and yours the same this is why we publiicly post them using a bot10:57
vertixI need a SPECIFIC answer on my original ban10:57
Flannelvertix: No, you won't be unbanned today.10:58
Flannelvertix: specific enough?10:58
vertixand subsequent developments regarding it10:58
vertixwell, this has been going on for how many days already?10:58
vertixOne more time: what was the EXACT and specific reason for my original ban?10:58
Flannelvertix: That's correct.  You weren't unbanned on those days either.10:58
vertixI don't need references, I need a DIRECT and OFFICIAL statement10:59
MyrttiI really would like to help him, but my good faith is really stretched thin here10:59
vertixare you a priest or a public servant?10:59
Flannelvertix: As we already said, we don't bend to your every whim.  It's not important, as Pici outlined, your current ban is due ot your continuing behavior, not your initial offense.10:59
* gnomefreak doesnt remember how to use bantracker it should have a snipit of the convo IIRC10:59
Tm_Tvertix: not only those both, but..10:59
Madpilot@login10:59
ubottuThe operation succeeded.10:59
Madpilot@btlogin10:59
vertixwhat SPECIFIC "behavior" are you talking about11:00
Flannelvertix: I've already outlined, and given you an example.  I will not ennumerate everything, since that would take me considerably more time than I wish to waste on you today.11:00
vertixyou are not listening to anything and all you are doing is harassing me and forcing me out BEFORE the issue is resolved and not SPECIFICALLY stating the OFFICIAL position on this matter11:00
* Myrtti goes to work since this convo is an obvious dead end, again11:00
ubottuActionParsnip called the ops in #ubuntu ()11:01
Flannelvertix: What question did you just ask that I did not answer?11:01
vertixFlannel, WHAT SPECIFIC REASON WAS FOR MY ORIGINAL BAN and HOW SPECIFICALLY IT WAS RESOLVED WITH JACK_SPARROW?11:02
Flannelvertix: It's immaterial to your continued ban from #ubuntu.11:02
vertixbecause that is the original request I made: I do not wish to discuss anything with him because I am not interested in talking to violent people, who abuse their authority and exceeds all conceivable limits to it11:03
Madpilotvertix, regardless of your original ban, your continued behaviour here warrents keeping it in place. How many times have you been removed from -ops in the last few days, anyway?11:03
vertix"immaterial" is not the answer11:03
vertixit is just further abuse11:03
FlannelMyrtti: do you mind?  We're just spiralling again.11:04
MyrttiFlannel: sec11:04
FlannelThankee11:04
vertixYOU may be spiralling11:04
vertixand YOU are abusing everything there is to abuse11:04
Flannelvertix: Again vertix, I wish you the best of days today.  Hopefully we'll reach a juncture in the near future where this can all be resolved.11:04
vertixand YOU are not addressing a single specific point with specific official statement11:05
Tm_Tvertix: I don't think that you can discuss your matter when all the time you use "op abuse" card when you have no other answer11:05
Myrttivertix: your original ban hasn't been resolved, since you don't discuss it with Jack_Sparrow and us11:05
vertixFlannel, I had a very serious problem with my system because my box was rooted and you are preventing me from resolving this issue on #ubuntu, and YOU are interfering from discussing this latest version of the most lethal rootkit known to date, and it's been days you are preventing me from being able to communicate on this matter in appropriate places, such as PUBLIC #ubuntu channel11:07
vertixand I have not done a SINGLE "wrong" thing and I have studied the policies of the "supervisory panel"11:07
gnomefreakvertix: most IRC clients log all activity in a channel please look at your logs to determine why you were banned and also see about the abuse. please feel free to discuss it in more detail than. At this time you are not helping yourself with op abuse ops not doing thier job ect....11:07
Madpilotvertix, got a bug report number for the 'most lethal rootkit'?11:08
vertixthat is why I asked some of you: are ANY of you involved with this latest release of rootkit?11:08
vertixI have been follwed by ikonia, provoking me and insulting me on other channels. What is his interest on this?11:08
Vampiresi dont type this channel11:08
FlannelVampires: We'll be with you momentarily.11:09
gnomefreakVampires: you are fowarded here because dispite the warnings you kept on with your comments11:09
vertixhe is hanging out on #security for several days now, and joined it immediately after me, and as soon as I start speaking he immediately starts perverting things and fabricating lies11:09
Vampireswhat comment11:09
Myrttignomefreak: lets deal with vertix here first, since he's been here longer11:10
MyrttiVampires: hold on, please11:10
gnomefreakVampires: the please make me part....11:10
Vampiresi asked for part not banned11:10
gnomefreakMyrtti: i dont know anything about vertix 11:10
Vampireslmao11:10
gnomefreakVampires: you were wanred now you are banned11:10
vertixare you running a power trip here and abusing that authority given to you, by ANY chance?11:10
gnomefreakvertix: be real careeful who and what you accuse people of11:11
Vampireswhy Myrtti  is good in banning users11:11
Vampireshe never read what others says. he keep on banning.11:11
gnomefreakVampires: you know why you were banned you were wanred more than 4 times to stay on topic and you refused to11:12
MyrttiVampires: you were disturbing the channel with your requests11:12
Vampiresi didnt disturbed11:12
gnomefreakyou asked and you recieved11:12
gnomefreakVampires: that is a support channel only11:12
Vampiresi ask part not banned, idiot11:12
MyrttiVampires: the channel is only for Ubuntu support questions, and asking to be parted/kicked is abusing both the operators and the other peoples time11:12
gnomefreaki wouldnt do that Vampires 11:13
gnomefreakcalling people names is not helping you at all11:13

Madpilotelky, +111:14
gnomefreakelky: agreed since we cant forward him to /dev/null 11:14
Vampireswhy sould i come back after few days ? are you losing donners ? lmao11:15
Myrttivertix: as I said, nobody apart from me can see what you're saying at the moment since you've been muted so we'd have a chance to handle Vampires case11:15

vertixfine11:17
Myrttiafter that, I'm off to really work11:17
vertixlemme do it myself by cut/paste:11:18
vertixone more time: I am talking about the most lethal version of rootkit known to11:18
gnomefreakMyrtti: i said that 3 hours ago  i still havent gotten there11:18
vertixdate and I have information and logs to warn the public and take precautionary11:18
vertixmeasures and YOU are preventing me from solving this issues, getting the11:18
vertixopinions of others and informing public about this most dangerous rootkit system11:18
Madpilotvertix, so, as I said before, URL of bug report for this lethal rootkit, pls?11:18
vertixthis information has been published in various places11:19
vertixin appropriate places11:19
Tm_Tvertix: then give us some url?11:19
Myrttihttp://paste.ubuntu.com/175544/11:19
Myrttithere we go11:19
vertixand I have all the evidence of this rootkit and all the attacking host in the network. those logs are in top shape11:19
vertixand I suspect THAT is the reason i was banned on the first place11:20
tsimpsonsaying you have proof is not proof in its self11:20
Myrttioh god, I messed the logs up :-(11:21
Madpilotbecause you think Ubuntu ops code up rootkits for fun?11:21
vertixMyrtti, fine, I see that page, and what does it tell you?11:21
Myrttistupid irc11:21
topyli@btlogin11:21
vertixI can produce 7 megs of logs, time stamped to the second resolution with ALL the packets by ALL involved hosts11:21
Myrttiok, so everything needed is in before the LASTLOG line11:22
vertixand some of it has been published already11:22
Flannelvertix: and these logs show what?11:22
topyli@login11:22
ubottuThe operation succeeded.11:22
topyli@btlogin11:22
* Myrtti vanishes11:22
vertixMadpilot, YOU know better what #ubuntu-ops are about, and we'll get into it in more details, not to worry11:22
vertixFlannel, these logs shows the activity of their entire attacking network11:23
Madpilotwe're supposed to code up rootkits as well as police Ubuntu IRC channels? I didn't get that memo... pity I suck at coding.11:23
Flannelvertix: Yes, and how do we come into all of this then?11:24
vertixand we are dealing with the rootkit allegedly released by recording industry to jeopardise torrent networks11:24
vertixand destroy as many systems as possible, according to google search on one of their main hosts11:24
FlannelIf you have all the logs, why don't you just publish or whatever it is that one does with logs these days.11:24
vertixdo you want to see a reference to that article regarding this host?11:25
vertixjust a sec11:25
vertix129.47.9.16011:25
Myrttiubuntu IRC channels aren't the best places to publish such information anyway11:25
vertixthat is one of their main hosts11:25
FlannelI don't.  Others might.  I just want to know how this affects us, and why we're coming into play.11:25
Myrttiif you want to get it properly spread out, blog about it with all your findings and do bug reports11:25
vertixIt is MY busines what is the "best" place to publish such a thing, and #ubuntu with about 1500 participants at any given time, IS the right place in my opinion11:26
vertix74.125.10.34 - 2nd level host11:26
vertix67.55.13.13511:26
Flannelvertix: That's incorrect.  #ubuntu is for support discussions, not other topics.11:26
FlannelWe don't even discuss Ubuntu in #ubuntu.11:26
Myrttivertix: I've been on #ubuntu since 2005 and I think I've got a pretty good idea what goes on there - your cry would be lost there11:27
vertixI ams still waiting for exact and specific statement on my original ban, and OFFICIAL statement on this manner, and the results of your investigation and discussions with Jack_Sparrow11:27
FlannelSo, I'm glad we've been able to warn you that attempting to announce it in #ubuntu would be fruitless, so you may turn your efforts elsewhere, to better places.11:27
Myrttivertix: have you been here to discuss it with Jack_Sparrow?11:27
Flannelvertix: How does that affect your announcement of this rootkit?  How are we impeding your progress in the matter?11:28
FlannelMyrtti: aren't you supposed to be gone?11:28
MyrttiFlannel: I know, I got stuck with twitter11:28
Myrttiand designing kitchens11:28
FlannelMyrtti: Just say no to two point oh!11:28
vertixFlannel, that is EXACTLY what I was doing before I was banned, and ikonia apparently got very concerned with it for some strange reason, and so is Jack_Sparrow, who banned me for no reason at all11:28
Madpilotlate to work because you were designing kitchens? that's a novel reason.11:28
Flannelvertix: What is exactly what you were doing?11:29
vertixFlannel, I was there not to announce the rootkit, I was there to discuss the specific issues related to compromised system11:29
MyrttiMadpilot: I've been "working" since four hours ago... telecommute of three meters from the bed to sofa11:29
vertixand directly related to Ubuntu11:29
Myrttis/tele//11:29
elkyvertix, where is your evidence of this rootkit?11:30
Flannelvertix: yes, well, as we said, we don't even discuss non-support Ubuntu topics in #ubuntu.11:30
Madpilotvertix, being persistantly off-topic in #ubuntu - which I can easily imagine - is an easy way to get banned. It's hardly unusual.11:30
vertixand the impression I have at this point, that for some unknown reason, you are interested in silencing me11:30
vertixMadpilot, I was not "off-topic"11:30
Tm_Tvertix: if it's not ubuntu-support, it's off-topic11:31
ikoniais this still going on ?11:31
elkyam i invisible?11:31
vertixTm_T, have you seen the logs before you start fabricating this?11:31
Flannelelky: Yep.11:31
Tm_Tvertix: which logs?11:31
elkyvertix, i asked you a question.11:32
vertixlogs of #ubuntu before I was banned11:32
Tm_Tvertix: I merely said where goes the line of off-topic, didn't say you were or weren't11:32
vertixand I asked this already, and not once: WHAT SPECIFIC STATEMENT OF MINE RESULTED IN MY ORIGINAL BAN?11:32
Flannelvertix: No time for that, please continue regarding the rootkit.11:33
Flannelvertix: It's imperative you educate us sooner, so we can take action for its prevention.11:33
vertixTm_T, before you start making conclusions, you have to study the SPECIFIC inssues, otherwise your conclusions are based on inventions and fabrications11:33
vertixFlannel, you can not even BEGIN to imagine what this rootkit is all about11:34
Tm_Tvertix: I didn't make any conclusions11:34
* gnomefreak justs needs name/numbers and i will find the rootkit but without those there is no way to look it up11:34
elkyvertix, i've asked you already, can i see evidence of this rootkit?11:34
vertixand its destructive potential. and by now, I know more about it than anyone else I know of11:34
Flannelvertix: That's because I haven't heard enough.  Please, enlighten us.  Show us the way out of the cave so that we may no longer gaze upon the shadows of figures, but of the figures themselves.11:35
gnomefreakvertix: please just give us a url to the root kit other wise we can not confirm there is one that is out there11:35
vertixgnomefreak, I have the full details of this rootkits behavior, how it affects linux and jumps the o/s barrier, what it infects, including bios and MBR,11:35
vertixhow it bypasses the kernel security11:35
elkyvertix, we want to see that information right now.11:36
gnomefreakvertix: show me a lnk other wise i can tell you all about it as well11:36
vertixand totally controls the o/s before kernel security is enabled and kernel is armed11:36
vertixhow it affects your network and disk drivers11:36
vertixand the rest of it11:36
tsimpsonit also makes pink bunnies fly across the screen11:36
elkyvertix, please link me to this information?11:36
vertixand it is spreading with thousands of copies every day11:36
vertixand no scanner can detect it11:36
tsimpsonwe can all make unfounded claims11:37
gnomefreakvertix: how did you hear about this rootkit?11:37
vertixbecasue it modifies your MBR and gets into your bios11:37
vertixjust pleast don't type anything11:37
gnomefreakcant provide info on it ban stays11:37
vertixand how it makes hidden partitions by changing your partition table during boot/shutdown11:37
bazhang?11:37
vertixand how it addresses data on disk TOTALLY bypassing the o/s11:37
elkyvertix, please link us to information on this threat11:38
Madpilotdoes it link to my bank account and steal all my money too?11:38
vertixand how it keeps tracks of all the viruses and trojans it already stored on your driver11:38
Madpilotof course, I don't have any money. Maybe it could steal my debt instead.11:38
gnomefreakthere are no viruses at this time that affect linux11:38
tsimpsonand it takes pictures with your webcam and send it off to the FBI too?11:39
vertixelky, you you all speak, then I can't even see it, because i am concerned with trying to give you the basic overall architecture of it11:39
vertixgnomefrea, my box was infected11:39
vertixand I have written a monitoring firewall11:39
tsimpsonvertix: all we want is a link, not a "architecture" description11:39
vertixso I could do in seconds what would take you days11:39
gnomefreakvertix: that means nothing to us, that could have been a locale problem thats why we need the url11:39
vertixlink to what?11:40
elkyvertix, i want a webpage with this information on it11:40
Myrttidocumentation of what you've found11:40
tsimpsonto the information11:40
vertixurl to what?11:40
Madpilotit forwards embarrassing drunken Facebook photos to all your supervisors, bosses and employers too, right?11:40
Tm_Tvertix: we need the information we can see other than your lines in irc alone11:40
vertixcheck the logs of #security chan during may 1-17, grep for vertix, that is one place. other places I am not going to give you now11:41
gnomefreakvertix: so you "lost" the link to info about it?11:41
elkyvertix, we need some evidence that's NOT you talking11:41
tsimpsonno, not IRC logs, real information11:41
vertixMadpilot, stop ridiculing me11:41
elkyvertix, we need someone to back your claims up11:41
vertixI have ALL the links I need11:41
tsimpsonso post them11:41
vertixall saved, backed up on proper media11:42
vertixI gave you the link. study it11:42
tsimpsonunless we see some authoritative information, we don't believe yoy11:42
elkywhat link? where?11:42
tsimpson*you11:42
vertixand IMMEDIATELY unban me on #ubuntu and stop banning me here, because it does not look good for YOUR record11:42
gnomefreakvertix: we are unable to confirm that there is a rootkit that is new, due to that you were still off topic in #ubuntu, please provide us a link on the rootkit and what it does so we can protect against it11:42
vertixand stop harassing and ridiculing me11:42
elkyvertix, what link? you've not given me any URL11:43
tsimpsonif you refuse to provide any evidence, then how are we to know if you are telling the truth or not?11:43
Myrttivertix: we need independent data and we need to be able to confirm your findings ourselves11:43
Myrttivertix: irc is not independent data11:43
gnomefreakuntil you can provide us with a link there is no use going on any longer11:43
vertixgnomefreak, you can fabricate anything you wish, but you did not see the specific information looks like. Did you see the #ubuntu logs to substantiate your claim?11:43
Myrttias you claim yourself11:43
Myrttiyou could fabricate anything you wish yourself11:43
vertixI can not speak to several people simultaneously, it is too fast to really see what you are trying to do11:44
gnomefreakvertix: you cant prove that is it out there so you would be the one fabricating info11:44
Myrttivertix: then put it on a webpage!11:44
gnomefreakvertix: we all asked for the same info11:44
vertixMyrtti, I have the orignal logs and detailed description of its behavior (rootkit)11:44
Flannelvertix: And whats keeping you from sharing them with the world?11:44
tsimpsonIRC logs are not evidence11:44
gsuvegre11:45
gsuveghi11:45
FlannelHi gsuveg, how can we help you today?11:45
vertixlogs are for about a week, when I was playing with their network via enabling/disabling new rules, made specifically for this situation, and I can do it very quickly11:45
gnomefreakwe need an official link say from norton mcafee ect...11:45
Madpilotanecdote + anecdote != evidence, as my philosophy prof was fond of saying11:45
vertixFlannel, I am ALREADY "sharing them with the world", trust me11:45
Myrttivertix: link?11:45
elkygsuveg, please join #ubuntu-irc instead. this channel is noisy at the moment.11:45
tsimpsonvertix: but just not us?11:45
vertixIt has been already published in some key places11:45
elkyvertix, where?11:46
Madpilotvertix, link to these key places plz?11:46
Myrttiold proverb of the jungle, URL OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN11:46
gnomefreakvertix: key places without links tells us nothing11:46
gsuvegelky: i have big problem on #ubuntu-hu11:46
Myrttigsuveg: #ubuntu-irc11:46
elkygsuveg, please join #ubuntu-irc for this.11:46
Myrttigsuveg: that's for loco group channels11:46
vertixgnomefreak, I know how to approach it as far as Norton and others go and I know what is in my interests/concerns, etc.11:46
Tm_Tvertix: honestly, why don't you show the information to us too?11:47
vertixgnomefreak, because I have reasons not to trust ANYONE of you at this point, because of YOUR "behavior", as strange as as suspicious as it is11:47
elkyvertix, we're still not seeing anything to substantiate your account. we need corroborating evidence.11:47
gnomefreakvertix: for your ban we need to know about it or we have to say it does not exist11:47
tsimpsonif not scanners can detect it, because it infects your BIOS and creates hidden partitions, what do Norton and others have to do with it?11:48
vertixTm_T, I wish to show what I wish to show and in the places I wish to publish it, and at times I wish to decide, and I wish to say what I wish to say in any of those places, and you are no exception11:48
tsimpsonfrankly your claims are too far-fetched to be believed without some solid evidence, which you refuse to provide. so we refuse to believe you11:49
vertixtsimpson, there are other ways to detect it...11:49
Tm_Tvertix: roger, we wish not to believe until we see some proof11:49
vertixit is a brand new design, there have never been anything even remotely as powerful as this one11:49
vertixit is a brilliant architecture and the way it hides itself no scanner can possibly see11:50
elkyif no scanner can see it, then how did you?11:50
Madpilotand you found it how, when everyone else seems to have missed it?11:50
vertixTm_T, about the LAST thing in my list of priorities is to provide "proof" to you here11:50
tsimpsonif you refuse to provide any evidence, I see no point in discussing this any further11:50
Tm_Tvertix: roger, then why you are here? giving us threats?11:51
tsimpsonyou ban will stand11:51
vertixyou do what you want with this info, and I have given you plenty, including the #security log on freenode11:51
tsimpsonvertix: we have already said that IRC logs are not evidence, and never will be11:51
elkyif you have no links, then i'm going to have to ban you from here.11:51
vertixMadpilot, beause I happen to be one of key ppl in the industry and consulted silicon valley biggest names for years as a president of consulting corporation in silicon valley11:52
tsimpsonthen you don't need to be in #ubuntu to progress with this11:52
vertixI am here to see the SPECIFIC statement that states your official position on the matter of my original ban and subsequent prolongation of it for UTTERLY inappropriate reasons11:52
vertixsimple as that11:52
tsimpsonand so there's no point in removing the ban11:52
vertixand I could care less what you think as "evidence".11:53
elkyenough. seriously.11:53
Flannelaww, I was going to answer him.11:53

gnomefreakjust an update google nor deepdyve know anything about rootkit after 2006 now i am going to get some work done12:01
Madpilotno real rootkit news - what a surprise. of course, that's evidence of the vast conspiracy and sneakiness of this new one, you know12:02
Flannelgnomefreak: what about wolfram?!?12:02
Madpilot</tinfoilhat>12:02

ubottuIn ubottu, ziroday said: !emerald is, emerald is an old, unsupported, and unmaintained window manager, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. Currently there are no alternatives13:37
zirodayHi, I just filed an edit request for !emerald?13:37
zirodayoh woops, that came out wrong. Is the edit request I filed okay? :)13:38
Myrtti!emerald13:38
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about emerald13:38
zirodayMyrtti: there's nothing currently, but emerald has been dropped by the compiz folks for a while13:39
zirodayjasper's meant to replace it but never quite got there13:39
topyliemerald is not a window manager though :)13:41
zirodays/window manager/window decorator13:42
zirodaytopyli: my bads13:42
topylihow about "emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. blah blah blah etc etc etc"13:42
zirodaysounds good to me13:43
topyliAmaranth might be able to create something that's correct :)13:44
Myrtti!emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives.13:46
ubottuI'll remember that, Myrtti13:46
Myrtti!emerald13:46

Jack_Sparrow!wubi13:50
ubottuWubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug.13:50
elkydoes the bot take stats on the most requested non-existant factoids?13:51
Jack_SparrowWe need for this little fact to be available for potential users..13:51
Jack_SparrowIf there is a pre-existing directory called "ubuntu" in the target drive, it will be reused during the Windows installation and the full directory will be removed when uninstalling (364166). This will result in the loss of any files which were originally in that directory.13:51
jussi01elky: I dont think so, but if you file a bug requesting it...13:51
PiciI cleaned up a bunch of old 'only requested once or twice' factoids yesterday13:52
topyliJack_Sparrow: oh yes. that can lead to terrible data loss13:52
MyrttiJack_Sparrow: that factoid is already almost at its maximum length13:52
Jack_SparrowMyrtti then we need another one.,  I HATE that program13:53
PiciAnd Ampelbein suggested a whole bunch of corrections/additions too13:53
elkyPici, it'd be nice to know what ones we need to be putting in. an unknown stats list with a blacklist would be good.13:57
Picielky: I agree. 13:59
elkyfirst word in the blacklists: 'sucks'.14:00
ikoniawhen did emerald become unsupported ?14:19
elkysince compiz and beryl fused back together i think.14:19
ikoniaI thought emerald was still going with fusion ?14:20
ikonia(wrongly obviously) 14:20
elkyi dunno. i've never really used it at all.14:20
ikoniaI've used it for ages, hence my wondering14:22
ikoniawhat replaces it ?14:22
elkyikonia, dunno. wait for ama ranth to respond to top yli's prompt above.14:25
LjLwho's a ranth?14:26
elkyLjL, the one starting with 'ama'14:28
LjLoh. i didn't realize on top yli of my head14:28

ikoniavetix kicking off in ##sercurity again14:29
elkyikonia, are there ##security ops around who can go whinge in #f?14:30
ikonianah, they are just mocking him, they see him as funny sport14:30
ikoniachannels quite op-quiet in general, never really needs anyone14:30
LjLand if there *were* op, we wouldn't know because the channel is set private :)14:31
elkyikonia, i hope they realise he thinks they take him seriously and use them as his evidence for places like here.14:31
ikonianot much he can use as evidence from "get out, your talking nonsense"14:32

elkystew, dave 2 was going to prod people about vertix, but i dont know if he did or not -- especially since he's still floating around and currently ranting in ##security14:51
Garyhe is funny in ##security 14:52
ikoniaVERY14:53
elkyi just dont want him sparking up in -kernel etc and making us play whack-a-mole14:53
elkyis ##security logged somewhere? :P14:54
ikoniaelky: he's been given the warning of the topic in #kernel - slightlest noise and he's gone14:54
ikoniano, but gary is there so I'm sure he has logs, and I've got a few of his funny ones14:54
Garythats if I remembered to get logging working...14:59

Piciikonia: I don't think theres any point in responding to anything he says.  15:01

LjLgenii: try spilling coffee on him16:24
LjLcan't even get the name of the site he spams right...16:26
ikoniaguys, (jussi01 especially) I'd like to request at least a mute, if not a ban for eagles in #kubuntu-devel he's back to his old ways after another warning, offering to package things up, and test/mail upstream people when he has been asked not to 16:29
ikoniaI'm going to speak jussi01 who's been putting in a fair bit of effort mentoring him from what I can see and scottk16:30
* tsimpson lastlog's16:31
tsimpsonI'd vote for bringing him in here to explain why, then muting for a period of time (regardless of the outcome of discussion with him in here)16:34
ikoniathe expaination has happened 20- 30 times now16:34
ikoniahence why I'm requesting something along the lines of at least a mute16:34
PiciIndeed. He was banned from those channels for all of the Jaunty release cycle16:35
ikoniathe nonsense he spouts to people is getting silly now16:35
tsimpsonit's a shame, he's someone who's willing to do some work to help. just can't do it right16:35
ikoniait's just a destrication16:35
ikoniatsimpson: the difference is he's not willing to do the work 16:35
ikoniatsimpson: he says he's willing to do the work16:35
tsimpsonikonia: we he has been upstreaming bugs (but badly)16:36
ikoniacorrect16:36
ikoniabecause he doesn't knwo what he's typing16:36
tsimpsonI've also seen complaints on advice in #k for the same reason16:36
tsimpsoneager to help someone, but has no knowledge16:36
LjLdon't confuse "no knowledge" with...16:37
Picibad knowledge?16:37
LjLi know a lot of people who have no knowledge on reporting bugs upstream.16:37
LjLthing is, they generally won't report bugs upstream.16:37
Pici"11:24:09 <JontheEchidna> eagles0513875: please stop upstreaming bugs, I'm hearing that you are annoying upstream16:37
tsimpsonLjL: upstreaming existing K/Ubuntu bugs to kde.org16:37
LjLyesss16:38
ikoniaPici: that was my request as he keeps saying that Jontheedchdna is asking him to do it16:38
ikoniaPici: so I asked him to say it clearly16:38
PiciAh16:38
tsimpsonbut it seems like spamming bugs.kde.org now...16:38
LjLwhat i'm saying is that most people have enough common sense to realise they don't know how to do something, and so they won't do it until they do know16:38
ikoniahe doesn't16:38
ikoniahence the danger16:38
LjLpeople who can't have that degree of common sense are better lost than found, imnsho16:38
ikoniatelling people he'll package things, when he has no idea how to do it, 16:38
ikoniasubmitting a test result when he has no idea how to test it16:39
ikoniait's taining information and letting people down don't know his lack of ability better16:39
tsimpsonand (on a personal annoyance), he has a habit of "lol"ing and not using punctuation16:39
ikoniaeven that he can't grasp "stop"16:39
tsimpsonalso, he should not be running karmic. he has no clue how/what to test and what to report16:40
ikoniathat you can't stop him (I agree though)16:40
tsimpsonand the concept of "things will break" seems to have missed him16:40
ikoniaI do feel strong about wasting peoples time in #kubuntu-devel though16:40
ikoniahe had this explained to him many times and still doesn't get it16:41
ikoniaI've put in time, and I know jussi01 has put in a good ammount of effort too16:41
tsimpsonyeah, it's not like we have a big kubuntu team16:41
ikoniaI'm only voicing my opinion on this, on a personal note I've getting tired of his behaviour, and I feel a little insulted that after all the effort people puts in to him from multiple channels he ignores it and carries on 16:42
tsimpsonI can understand that16:43
tsimpsonperhaps the -devel land ban should extend to #k-devel now too16:45
ikoniaI feel on a personal level he is a negative impact on the people he interacts with from new users who know no better, to core devs who waste time dealing with him, also his representation as acting on behalf ubuntu developers to upstream is not how I feel it should be represented16:45
ikoniathat's only my personal opinion though 16:45
ikoniahe has had over a year to change his behaviour and I see no change16:46
tsimpsonhe's not been able to stay out of the BT this year either16:47
ikoniawhich falls inline with my comment about his negative impact on users in general 16:47
ikoniaI totally accept I'm being over firm on this because of the time I've personally wasted and know others have wasted hence why I'm not doing anything myself but just asking for opinions on this16:48
tsimpsonI've just been looking over my logs of k-devel, probably 90+% of lines from him are nothing to do with development and are mildly offtopic for -devel16:54
tsimpsonnot that we really enforce the "ontopic"-ness in -devel, but when 90% of your messages are offtopic, that's an issue...16:54
ikoniaget some input from jussi01 as a council member and as someone who's spent time mentoring him 16:55
ikoniaI've made my opinion clear that I'm fed up with it and feel it has a negative impact on any interaction with him from anyone16:55
ikonia(or other council members Pici elky etc) I only said jussi01 as he's put in effort personally16:56
LjLwell council doesn't have *overly* much to do with k-devel you know16:57
ikoniano, but in terms of irc policy and guidence16:57
tsimpsonmaybe we should invite riddell and/or jontheechidna to give their opinions16:59
ikoniascottK has passed opinion on this recently in this channel and jontheechidna gave it in a pm to me, but please by all means invite ask16:59
ikoniainfact, I'm wrong, I spoke to riddle in here, not scottk17:00
tsimpsonI expect I already know what they think, but it'll be good to have it "on the record"17:00
ikoniajontheechidna is on line and active now17:00
ikoniagive him a prod17:00
ikoniariddle looks dead17:01
tsimpsonhe's probably drinking an iron bru17:01
tsimpsonwaiting for a response from jontheechidna17:03
ikoniaahh17:04
ikoniaI'd messaged him too (from earlier when I asked him to confirm to eagles to stop working with upstream) 17:05
ikoniaprobably on flood protection17:05

ikoniathat's the idea17:10
geniiWhy are the manpages at  manpages.ubuntu.com  being pulled off of some freebsd manpages?17:15
ikoniaa lot of man pages are freebsd17:15
* jussi01 wakes up17:18
jdongdo the commands come from BSD utilities?17:18
ikoniasome of them do 17:19
geniiThe prob becomes in this instance when command names diverge and are unique to freebsd for instance. Or driver name AND instructions as in http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man4/bge.4.html17:19
jdongProvided by: freebsd-manpages_7.1~beta1-1_all bug17:19

jussi01ikonia: ping17:21
Amaranthikonia: Nothing replaces emerald but it has been unsupported since beryl renamed to compiz-fusion. The only real changes that have been made to it since then are the minimum requires changes to keep it working.17:26
Amaranthikonia: Starting with compiz 0.9.x not even that is going to be done17:27
ikoniapong17:27
ikoniaAmaranth: I'm shocked17:27
ikoniaAmaranth: so what is the fusion component to provide emerald functionality ?17:27
ikoniajussi01: pong sorry17:28
AmaranthNothing17:28
ikoniaso there is no decorator ?17:28
AmaranthThe plan was jasper would replace it but then it started getting crazy with everything as plugins and then development stalled on it17:28
Amaranthikonia: gtk-window-decorator and kde4-window-decorator17:28
Amaranthmetacity and kwin themes17:28
ikoniaoh dear17:28
ikoniahow dissapointing, 17:28
AmaranthIf you had ever had a problem with emerald you would have found out earlier :P17:29
AmaranthMost people have come to the dev channel with a problem, learned this, and freaked out17:29
ikoniathat's the problem, emerald has worked well for me since day one17:30
AmaranthBut user protest is not enough to stop this from happening, look at the code for emerald and tell me you'd want to maintain it17:30
ikoniano no, not complaining, just surprised17:30
ikoniaI'm a bit out of the loop on eye candy17:30
LjLuh so what does this mean in practical terms?17:30
ikoniano compiz eye candy decorator17:31
AmaranthLjL: It means you only get metacity and kwin themes with compiz17:31
LjLthat a bad thing? i thought metacity and kwin had a few themes for them17:31
AmaranthLjL: No translucent parts or glow17:32
ikonianot a bad thing, just a personal preference17:32
LjLah17:32
ikoniaoxydgen is a good feature in emerald17:32
ikoniais the term "painter" ?17:32
AmaranthI think the term is "giant freaking hack"17:33
ikoniaoh17:33
Amaranthbut let's go with painter, sure17:33
ikoniapainter it is 17:33
Amaranthemerald is slow too17:33
Amaranthever notice how even with live resize emerald stretches?17:34
ikoniaI've not found it slow at all to be honest, 17:34
jussi01sory ikonia, was on phone. see pm17:36
ikoniano no, no problem17:36

It must consequently take a form calculated to support the aim which it serves.22:25

AmpelbeinHi. I tried changing a factoid some hours ago, namely ftbs. This should become a alias for a new factoid ftbfs, describing what it means and give a link to the packages currently ftbfs. was there a problem with that factoid?23:52
Myrttiwe were discussing the necessity of it in the first place23:52
Myrttijussi01 had some insight23:52
AmpelbeinMyrtti: well, i can imagine that it would be useful in the ?ubuntu-devel and/or ubuntu-motu channel. but as ftbs is a not so well distributed acronym, i don't think it was used often. The more accepted acronym is ftbfs, that's why i tried changing that.23:54
MyrttiAmpelbein: which was what jussi01 said23:58
Myrttianyway, time to go beddybyes, talk to you all later23:58
Ampelbeinok, I'll let you handle it from here.23:59
Ampelbeinbye23:59
