|---|---|---|
| IdleOne | does the mini.iso ask if you want to setup a root account? | 04:27 |
| elky | I do wonder what would happen if one did not. Sounds like an odd question, really. | 04:36 |
| elky | I can't see why they'd do away with sudo for a trimmed down system, to be honest. | 04:37 |
| IdleOne | elky: asking because there is a couple of users in #ubuntu saying that it does | 04:37 |
| IdleOne | I am testdrving the mini.iso now to see | 04:38 |
| elky | I'd suggest they're not understanding the question they're asked in the setup. | 04:38 |
| IdleOne | well I just clearly saw the setup say. Retrieving sudo | 04:42 |
| IdleOne | soooo | 04:42 |
| elky | The installer probably says something liek "set up your user, and password. this password is what you need to give when it asks for root password" or something with a similar message but more articulate | 04:44 |
| IdleOne | elky: yeah just like the default CD installer dopes | 04:45 |
| IdleOne | does* | 04:45 |
| elky | which to somoene who doesn't understand sudo could sound like it was saying to set up the root password | 04:45 |
| elky | yeah | 04:45 |
| IdleOne | going to finish the install just to make certain for myself | 04:46 |
| elky | virtualisation ftw | 04:46 |
| IdleOne | and btw testdrive is nice | 04:46 |
| IdleOne | +1 jono | 04:46 |
| elky | ubottu's really having issues lately, eh | 04:52 |
| bazhang | is sudobash banned, and ban evading? | 04:52 |
| IdleOne | @bansearch sudobash | 04:53 |
| elky | considering any time he shows up he acts banworthy, i'd be surprised if he's not. | 04:53 |
| IdleOne | err yeah with ubottu not here that won't work | 04:53 |
| bazhang | just checking the bantracker now | 04:53 |
| elky | which is going it's usual pace, i guess | 04:54 |
| IdleOne | elky: like expected when the installer asks to setup a user it does mention root but only to let the user know that the user being installed will have the ability to perform root actions. | 04:57 |
| Flannel | IdleOne: mini is exactly like the alternate installer (they both use debian-installer) | 04:58 |
| Flannel | the only difference is mini doesn't contain any packages on the CD, so you have to download them | 04:58 |
| IdleOne | Flannel: yup I figured as much but got told in #ubuntu I was wrong | 04:58 |
| Flannel | IdleOne: By whom and when? | 04:58 |
| IdleOne | So I thought what better way to make sure then to try in VM | 04:58 |
| Flannel | Oh, gotcha. | 04:59 |
| IdleOne | half hour ago by GC... and lucitu | 04:59 |
| Flannel | The only time debian-installer does that is if you kick it into expert mode | 04:59 |
| Flannel | and then it also asks you a bajillion other questions (standard expert mode questions, shadow passwords, all the minutia of circa 2000 linux installers) | 05:01 |
| IdleOne | err | 05:01 |
| IdleOne | I hated linux back then | 05:01 |
| IdleOne | tone of questions I had no idea how to answer | 05:01 |
| Flannel | yep! | 05:01 |
| IdleOne | that is why I ended up waiting another 4 years before trying again | 05:02 |
| ubottu | gartral called the ops in #ubuntu (ubbottu) | 05:13 |
| IdleOne | hahah omg I forgot the username I used for the VM | 05:18 |
| Flannel | IdleOne: recovery console | 05:18 |
| IdleOne | How do I get to the recovery console? | 05:19 |
| Flannel | IdleOne: boot menu, beyond that, I don't know. | 05:19 |
| IdleOne | yeah I don't get a boot menu | 05:20 |
| Flannel | Or, mount the filesystem [somehow] and check your passwd file | 05:20 |
| IdleOne | I don't believe I did this | 05:21 |
| IdleOne | I should lart myself | 05:21 |
| IdleOne | well I got to get to sleep anyway worried about it tomorrow. Big day of paint ball in the morning :) | 05:22 |
| IdleOne | worry* | 05:22 |
| IdleOne | nighters | 05:22 |
| elky | or you could just hax0r grub :) | 06:07 |
| gord | i hax0r grub with my leet powers, oh wait no, i still try and look for a menu.lst | 08:31 |
| fuzthewuz | sup, my retard brother just got me banned | 09:06 |

| systix | Hello, I was nocked out of #ubuntu because im vuln. to the DCC exploit. just updated my firmware and looking to be 'tested' | 09:40 |
| systix | as request of #ubuntu-read-topic | 09:41 |
| tsimpson | systix: you were systix__ at the time, try /nick'ing to that and typing "test me" in the channel | 09:44 |
| tsimpson | (it's based on nick, not host) | 09:44 |
| === systix is now known as systix__ | ||
| tsimpson | looks like you failed | 09:45 |
| systix__ | that seemed to work, thanks. although im still vuln aparently :( | 09:45 |
| tsimpson | did you change ports? | 09:45 |
| systix__ | tsimpson, I have done what the ubuntu documentation has said: firmware update on router AND ic changed freenode port to 8001. still getting the problem aparently | 09:48 |
| tsimpson | are you sure you're connected via 8001? | 09:49 |
| systix__ | well iv set irc.freenode.net/8001 in my network list, forced that connection only and reconnected | 09:49 |
| systix__ | wait, we o apear to be using 6667 again. | 09:50 |
| tsimpson | yeah, xchat is strange like that | 09:50 |
| tsimpson | try disconnecting first | 09:50 |
| tsimpson | then changing ports | 09:50 |
| systix__ | shouldnt is be irc.freenode.net:8001 | 09:50 |
| systix__ | not a forward slash | 09:50 |
| tsimpson | no, xchat uses '/' not ':' | 09:50 |
| tsimpson | like I said, it's strange | 09:50 |
| systix__ | yeah lol. i will close and reopen my client | 09:51 |
| systix__ | back in a sec :P | 09:51 |
| systix | seemed to fix it :) | 09:51 |
| systix | tsimpson, thanks for the advice. bye bye | 09:52 |
| tsimpson | ... but you didn't test | 09:52 |
| knome | :P | 09:52 |

| marienz | mind if I quiet DuctTapeCoder? You probably remember him as the guy repeatedly sharing his love of madonna on many channels. | 18:06 |
| marienz | you may also remember him as BabaBooey, at least I think he was on #-offtopic using that nick a while back. | 18:06 |
| marienz | hmm, he might be behaving now. | 18:08 |
| bsmith093 | could someone please test me? | 18:16 |
| bsmith093 | i got the buggy router thing DCC exploit | 18:16 |

| funkyHat | blarr | 21:46 |
| funkyHat | I guess my second +q was wrong too :/ | 21:50 |
| Flannel | +q is quiet, you likely want +b | 21:50 |
| funkyHat | I mean I don't understand why the +q that is still active doesn't seem to be working | 21:51 |
| Flannel | funkyHat: +q won't stop someone from joining a channel, just talking in it | 21:52 |
| funkyHat | But vito's host mask matches that :/ | 21:52 |
| Flannel | funkyHat: Matches what? | 21:53 |
| funkyHat | Oh. Never mind -_- just me getting caught out by the extra _ | 21:53 |
| Flannel | Now I'm really confused | 21:55 |
| Flannel | what does vitos match? | 21:55 |
| Flannel | or almost match? | 21:55 |
| funkyHat | the troll joined as vito__ | 21:57 |
| funkyHat | So I thought they were the same person | 21:58 |
| Flannel | Ah | 21:58 |
