If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin [04:21] In ubottu, boss_mc said: no, pulse is PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD. It is the default sound server for Ubuntu 8.10 (Interpid Ibex) and above - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions - See http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup for advice for configuring particular programs [04:22] That is just a suggestion for the new factoids [04:22] thanks, boss_mc [04:22] the pulseaudio ubuntu page needs updating too [04:22] the current !sound advice does more harm than good imho [04:23] the !pulse factoid could also mention paman/padevchooser (very useful for fault finding and stream control) [04:23] well, I leave it in your capable hands :) [04:57] boss_mc: padevchooser is going away, i believe [04:57] just checked, yeah, its deprecated [07:50] Hi I'm wanting to enquire about my ban in #ubuntu-offtopic [07:51] What about it? [07:52] I was unbanned in the channel and now the ban is back on [08:03] I believe it was already explained as an issue with servers synching. [08:04] Flannel, the ban was removed, then servers synced and rebanned him elky wished someone with access in ot to fix it [08:06] Ah. Without capitalization, there it is. [08:07] Bacta: I've removed it [08:07] Bacta: Be sure you can join that channel and talk, so I know there's nothing else out there I need to hunt down [08:08] Thanks Flannel, appreciate it [08:09] Bacta: You're good to go it looks like. If there's nothing else we can do for you today, please part here. Thanks. [08:10] Thanks [11:25] watch out for Jamesq123, might pull something up his sleeve [12:14] In #ubuntu, fahadsadah said: ubottu: unofficial is Unofficial repos contain software that Ubntu devs don't have control over, and can contain malicious software. [13:30] how do i make icons for ubuntu [13:30] tanveer: hello there [13:30] tanveer: you're not actaully in a support channel your in the operators channel [13:30] tanveer: if you could hang on for a moment I'll see if I can see why you are here, unless you know why [13:31] well why am i here? [13:31] I'm just looking now [13:31] ahhh I see now, just a moment please. [13:32] im ban or something [13:32] ahh yes, you where forwarded here because you persisted with your discussion of illegal software [13:32] oh yh [13:32] so what do i do [13:33] its been 2 months [13:33] yes, it was a ban forward here due to you repeated disscussion about warez/illegal software, [13:33] yes, its been two months but I can see you've ban dodged to get around the ban rather than discuss it in here - which is why this has only just been higlighted [13:33] so do i just quit and go.. [13:34] too late [13:34] I was just typing a response [13:35] just tried to ban dodge straight away [13:35] trying to get him in a pm [14:21] the ftp brute-forcing crew seem to originate in #ubuntu-dz (rohff , check45, check208, sithran ) [14:23] have rohff in PM now [14:31] he has admitted to running a bot, says he meant no malice; should I ask him to join here? would any of the senior operators like to discuss with him? [14:33] elky, eviljussi01 Pici ^^ [14:40] just ask him to stop [14:40] you can't brute force and mean no harm [14:41] can't allow ubuntu channels to be used as a cracking club [14:41] It was attempting brute force attacks on all uncloaked people who joined the channel [14:42] Ouchies. Very bad. [14:42] "no malice" doesn't really cut it for me [14:42] just explain it's his only warning before going to freenode [14:42] yes. he admitted it. he has said he will desist. Would you like him to join here was the question. [14:42] (in my opinion) [14:42] I went to freenode about it, I'm not sure what they did about it. [14:43] he may want to talk to freenode about it then [14:43] if he's genuinly sorry about it [14:43] I don't feel comfortable unbanning, nor do I understand how you could mean 'no malice' doing something like this [14:43] well then staff may wish to speak to rohff94 as he is currently active in #ubuntu-dz [14:44] !dz [14:44] Sorry, I don't know anything about dz [14:44] What country is dz? [14:44] algerian channel [15:16] hey guys [15:16] i can`t join #ubuntu [15:16] foo^bar: sure you can [15:17] thank you nalioth [15:17] again :P [15:17] adios [19:16] How would I get ubottu to join my channel? [19:20] PoisonSerpent_: which channel? [19:20] Umm, #tektech [19:20] PoisonSerpent_: ubottu is strictly for official ubuntu channels, however you can create your own clone [19:20] Oh. [19:20] !botclone | PoisonSerpent_ [19:20] PoisonSerpent_: Ubottu uses supybot, which is available in the main !repositories, with additional plugins that are available at http://ubottu.com/clone.html [19:21] Hmm. Link is broken.. ? [19:22] works for me? [19:22] PoisonSerpent_: you can also use: https://code.launchpad.net/~tsimpson/ubuntu-bots/tweak [19:22] Well, it redirects me to https://code.launchpad.net/~tsimpson/ubuntu-bots/tweak, then says that it "Cannot display the page". [19:23] PoisonSerpent_: thats curious, as it is working fine here. [19:23] Hmm. [19:23] Hold on a sec. [19:24] Yep, my internet connection is up (duh), there is no firewall blocking the site.. hmm. [19:25] That site works from here [19:25] That is just weird. [19:25] PoisonSerpent_: try a different browser? [19:25] Well, to get a clone, what would I have to do? [19:25] Alright, hold on, let me pull up another browser. [19:33] Sorry, I overloaded my router. [19:44] In #ubuntu, fahadsadah said: !icon is icons [19:45] Please can I have access to ubottu for factoid registration?> [19:46] fahadsadah: Your factoid suggestion has been sent to this channel already, it will be reviewed and may or may not be added to the database. [19:47] I was aware of that, I was asking to make the process easier. [19:48] I have suggested many factoids today alone. [19:48] (clarification: I was asking for access to make the process easier) [19:49] fahadsadah: The bot maintainer is currently not here. [19:49] OK, thanks. [19:49] Please can I have his/her nick, to try again later? [19:54] fahadsadah: I would suggest to just occasionally return and enquire. They will speak up if they feel so inclined. [20:08] You after me? [20:09] fahadsadah: what exactly are you suggesting? [20:10] jussi01: they want to be added to the editor list for the bot, as they have suggested a large number of factoids today [20:11] fahadsadah: access for ubottu is left to a group of trusted operators because of previous abuse. [20:11] by "many factoids", they mean 1 in the last 24 hours [20:11] based on a /lastlog [20:13] and genii, you are welcome to point people to me :) [20:14] fahadsadah: do you have any further questions for the operators? if not, please respect our /topic [20:17] !icons [20:17] Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop?

I would like to split it with you in exchange for your asssistance in retrieving it. All you would need to do is send me $20 up front and give me editor access in ubottu.... [20:24] *g* [20:29] jussi01: :) [21:07] guys, what's going on? [21:08] a whole bunch of channels im in are filling with lists of nicks [21:08] ....wait did a netsplit just happen? [21:09] it did [21:10] oh. so thats quassel's new way of showing that one happened. ok [21:10] I have asked bdelin88 3 times to move to #ubuntu-offtopic and I am just being ignored. Can someone please ask him to move or leave [21:11] I'll sort it [21:11] IdleOne: thanks [21:14] maco: spoke to him in pm - should be sorted [21:14] who? the russian?
