| DJones | Can I suggest a factoid, occasionally I see questions about where to buy operating system free computers or linux preinstalled, in -uk, there's a couple of users who've set up a website listing suppliers of operating system free computers and wondered whether a factoid to give that information could be set up | 09:13 |
|---|---|---|
| Myrtti | DJones: factoid suggestions are always welcome, but not necessarily implemented ;-) | 09:14 |
| DJones | originally I'd just though to suggest it as a -uk specific one, but speaking to the developer he's said that they've got more international suppliers listed than uk, so whether you'd consider it worth adding as a global factoid, the suggestion was something along the lines of | 09:14 |
| DJones | Myrtti: I realise that, it is just an idea anyway | 09:15 |
| DJones | !nc is If you want to use a Free and Open Source operating system on a computer, this site lists and promotes computer shops both online and in the real world that will sell a system without a preinstalled operating system. http://nakedcomputers.org/ | 09:15 |
| Myrtti | god I hate that site | 09:15 |
| DJones | :) | 09:15 |
| Myrtti | I hate the logo and the name | 09:15 |
| DJones | I can appreciate that | 09:16 |
| jussi01 | the name doesnt bother me too much, but the logo...w ell it could do with a major rework. | 09:57 |
| MaWaLe | morning folks | 10:00 |
| MaWaLe | where can i ask for help about bots (sorry for eventual offtopic) | 10:00 |
| AlanBell | morning all, I designed the nakedcomputers.org site, happy to answer any questions about it | 10:03 |
| AlanBell | and I do think there is an issue with the logo too, we have been working on a new one but I am not altogether happy with that either | 10:04 |
| MaWaLe | !bots | 10:10 |
| ubottu | Hi! I'm #ubuntu-irc's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 10:10 |
| jpds | MaWaLe: Just go ahead and fire away your question. | 10:14 |
| MaWaLe | thx jpds | 10:20 |
| MaWaLe | jpds: i'm searching for help to implement a bot in our chanels (#ubuntu-tn, #ubuntu-tn-meeting, #ubunt-tn-classroom) | 10:20 |
| MaWaLe | the goal is to have one like ubottu | 10:21 |
| jpds | Would you like ubot2 or ubot4? | 10:21 |
| MaWaLe | what do you advice me to have? | 10:21 |
| jpds | Either, they're are both clones of ubottu. :) | 10:21 |
| MaWaLe | so what's the difference between them? | 10:22 |
| jpds | Their nicks. | 10:22 |
| jpds | MaWaLe: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots#ubottu%20family | 10:22 |
| MaWaLe | can pick one of them, edit their msg and actions and rename it ubot-tn and pug it in our chanels? | 10:22 |
| jpds | Well, you could run your own bot if you'd like. | 10:23 |
| jussi01 | !botclone | 10:24 |
| ubottu | Ubottu uses supybot, which is available in the main !repositories, with additional plugins that are available at http://ubottu.com/clone.html | 10:24 |
| jpds | But if you'd just like a clone, I'd be more than happy to place one in your channels for you. | 10:24 |
| jussi01 | AlanBell: mind if I pm? | 10:24 |
| MaWaLe | jpds: where can i find documentation about running our own bot? and if we require a clone, can we administer it? or you'll have to do that for us? | 10:26 |
| AlanBell | jussi01: feel free | 10:27 |
| jpds | MaWaLe: See jussi01's link. :) | 10:27 |
| MaWaLe | i'm on it :) | 10:27 |
| MaWaLe | but i was asking for additional docs :) | 10:27 |
| jpds | Oh, that's an awful redirect. | 10:28 |
| jpds | MaWaLe: What exactly do you want? A bot with ubottu's factoids and stuff? | 10:28 |
| MaWaLe | yes | 10:29 |
| jpds | Then, I could just give you one of the clones. | 10:30 |
| MaWaLe | i'll be so grateful :) | 10:32 |
| MaWaLe | and one more question please : how to invite locobot_4 to subscibe permanently on all our chanels | 10:33 |
| jpds | MaWaLe: Send an email to admin-AT-ubuntu-eu.org. | 10:33 |
| MaWaLe | jpds: can i write my mail in french (it's eaiest for me to explain my thoughts in french) | 10:35 |
| jpds | Yes, I believe some of the team are French. | 10:35 |
| aliceinwire | hello how can i have a cloack ? | 10:59 |
| bazhang | !cloak | aliceinwire | 10:59 |
| ubottu | aliceinwire: Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 10:59 |
| Myrtti | aliceinwire: to get any kind of cloak (ubuntu member or any other kind) you first need to set up your nick as detailed in this FAQ: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup - you MUST set an email address, AND group an alternate nick. For Ubuntu member cloaks, ask in #ubuntu-irc and provide your launchpad page, for unaffiliated ones, ask in #freenode. | 10:59 |
| aliceinwire | pk the nick is set correct | 11:01 |
| Myrtti | and you seem to have unaffiliated cloak already | 11:03 |
| jussi01 | aliceinwire: are you an ubuntu member? if so, could you provide me with your LP page? | 11:04 |
| aliceinwire | sure | 11:04 |
| aliceinwire | https://launchpad.net/~aliceinwire | 11:04 |
| jpds | !member | aliceinwire | 11:05 |
| ubottu | aliceinwire: Want to become an Ubuntu member? Look at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember | 11:05 |
| jussi01 | aliceinwire: ahh, youve been given a unaffiliated cloak, and as you are not an ubuntu member you do not qualify for an ubuntu cloak. | 11:05 |
| aliceinwire | oh | 11:07 |
| aliceinwire | im a debian mainteiner | 11:07 |
| jpds | As I understand, only Debian Developers can get debian/ cloaks. | 11:08 |
| aliceinwire | oh ok thx | 11:09 |
