[01:07] <bazhang> I'm concerned that sean__ is going to offer very bad advice in PM
[03:48] <IdleOne> evening
[04:18] <IdleOne> What is the policy on posting these types of links?
 DASPRiD you can find the driver      http://www.driversguide.com
[04:18] <IdleOne> it requires login
[04:18] <IdleOne> and then probably wants you to buy some stupid application that wont work anyway
[07:08] <bazhang> fireko and valkyrie appear to be connecting from the same address and have similar intent
[07:11] <bazhang> apparently he is in #arch right now discussing trolling #ubuntu
 There. Ye' have what ya wish. I stop - fer now.
[08:02] <tsimpson> IdleOne: we don't have a specific policy for that, though it may fall under spamming and not being helpful (unless it's a genuinely useful link for the person)
[08:05] <Tm_T> we also prefer ubuntu codumentation
[09:08] <elky> Can I suggest you ping a friend of mine, tigrmesh, who is an arch op whenever this happens.
[09:08] <bazhang> they were warned in #archlinux at the time by those present
[09:09] <elky> cool, if they go unheeded, do ping my friend though
[09:09] <elky> probably even worth doing if they don't get any op attention at the time anyway
[09:09] <bazhang> okay, many thanks (have @mark'd them/him as well)
[10:36] <ikonia> ahhhh I got hit with a auto kline script trying to help someone in #ubuntu
[10:36] <ikonia> suckered
[10:41] <bazhang> panarchy is back
[10:41] <ikonia> yup
[10:41] <ikonia> he's not been in any #ubuntu channels that I know of
[10:42] <bazhang> not that I have seen, just another prominent linux channel
[10:42] <ikonia> which one ?
[10:43] <bazhang> ##linux
[10:43] <ikonia> I didn't see him in there
[10:43] <ikonia> odd
[10:43] <ikonia> must have not been watching
[10:54] <elky> ikonia, what you said in #u doesn't really correlate with your kline
[10:54] <ikonia> ??
[10:54] <ikonia> explain
[10:56] <elky> 19:33:56 is when you spoke, 19:34:06 is the last line anyone said before your kline, 19:34:15 is when the kline hit, 19:34:43 is the next line by anyone.
[10:56] <ikonia> ahhh did the spam not hit #ubuntu ?
[10:57] <ikonia> it must have just been #freenode
[10:57] <elky> no
[10:57] <ikonia> good good
[10:57] <ikonia> that's a relief, I'm in 100 channels so hitting all of them would have been annoying
[10:57] <elky> * Guest04934 (~chatzilla@alesi.projecthugo.co.uk) has joined #freenode
 JOIN IN http://hnode.tripod.com/ . AND USE OUR NEW JAVACHAT!!!
[10:58] <elky> That's not good.
[10:58] <ikonia> nope
[10:58] <ikonia> should have used wget to test it
[10:59] <elky> Oh, the linking spam is back?
[10:59] <ikonia> yes
[10:59] <ikonia> some guy was asking for help in #ubuntu, I was sceptical but gave the benifit of the doubt
[11:00] <elky> ah, i see it there now
[11:12] <ikonia> hello Jordan_U
[11:12] <Jordan_U> ikonia: Hi, the_file in #ubuntu may be a troll.
[11:12] <ikonia> lets look
[11:13] <ikonia> no problem, lets see what happens
[13:29] <bazhang> theidiot in -ot
[13:45] <bilalakhtar> I noticed an offensive quit message on channel #ubuntu-offtopic by user theidiot
[13:46] <elky> bilalakhtar, thanks. we were already watching him. if you notice him return please let us know
[13:47] <bilalakhtar> elky: Ok, I think I should leave now, since idling here is not allowed :). Will come back if theidiot comes back
[14:23] <bilalakhtar> hello, people, I cannot connect to #ubuntu-offtopic. Why? I am connecting from my office. Is that a problem? But I can connect to other channels.
[14:23] <bazhang> what happens when you try?
[14:24] <bilalakhtar> bazhang: It says "Cannot connect to #ubuntu-offtopic: Permission denied"
[14:24] <bilalakhtar> bazhang: A firewall problem?
[14:24] <bilalakhtar> I should ask it in #freenode I suppose
[14:25] <bazhang> that is odd
[14:25] <bazhang>  /join #ubuntu-offtopic  fails?
[14:26] <bilalakhtar> yeah
[14:26] <bilalakhtar> Ok, I have to go to my home now, will see if the problem occurs there or not
[14:26] <bazhang> what about some random channel
[14:26] <bazhang> #debian for example
[14:26] <bilalakhtar> bazhang: debian also not working.
[14:27] <bazhang> bizarre
[14:31] <bazhang> that was !pl not !cz
[14:31] <IdleOne> oh
[14:32] <IdleOne> well maybe being a little more polite next time will get him the correct answer :/
[14:42] <ikonia> IdleOne: what good will running a dual boot system over wubi do for him ?
[14:43] <IdleOne> ikonia: not actually certain but I have seen people say Ubuntu runs smoother in a actual install instead of wubi
[14:43] <ikonia> doesn't seem sensible to blindly advise a full OS install without something to back it up
[14:44] <ikonia> it's more likley he's not using the video card config correctly so everything appears slow
[14:44] <IdleOne> noted
[14:51] <funkyHat> having trouble leaving a comment on the bantracker
[14:51] <IdleOne> did you give ubottu a cookie first?
[14:52] <funkyHat> I don't think it's an auth issue: <class '_sqlite.DatabaseError'>: attempt to write a readonly database
[14:53] <IdleOne> poke tsimpson about it
[15:07] <jussi> #ubuntu-bots team for bot issues ;)
[15:08] <IdleOne> #ubuntu-bots-team
[15:08] <IdleOne> thank you jussi
[15:08] <jussi> heh
[15:08] <jussi> yes
[15:22] <bilalakhtar> Hello ops, for an unknown reason, I am banned from #ubuntu-offtopic. I can connect only through webchat. Can someone tell the reason?
[15:25] <bilalakhtar> ^ I am connected to that channel through webchat. I am connecting through my office proxy. The problem is with the office for some reason, since I can connect from my home. I am at home right now, but using office proxy to test this problem which I discoveren an hour ago.
[15:27] <bilalakhtar> elky: Hi there! Can you solve my problem over here?
[15:32] <bilalakhtar> Is someone over here available?
[15:36] <bilalakhtar> Can someone help me? I have switched back to my home network now. I can connect to offtopic from home, but not office, though I can connect to other channels from office.
[15:39] <IdleOne> bilalakhtar: is there a pattern in the channels you can't connect to?
[15:39] <IdleOne> I mean is it only channels that have -offtopic in the name?
[15:40] <bilalakhtar> IdleOne: no. Only #ubuntu-offtopic. I can connect to kubuntu-offtopic as well. I can connect to all other channels but not that one
[15:40] <IdleOne> although I don't think that would make a difference unless your work network somehow blocks those channels
[15:40] <bilalakhtar> IdleOne: My network admin says port 8001 is completely unblocked.
[15:40] <IdleOne> bilalakhtar: #freenode may be able to help. seems strange that it is only that one channel
[15:41] <jussi> bilalakhtar: what is the proxy you are using at work?
[15:42]  * jussi guesses there is a ban on the proxy
[15:42] <bilalakhtar> jussi: You mean the IP?
[15:42] <bilalakhtar> I mean IP address? just a min
[15:42] <jussi> yes
[15:42] <IdleOne> 67.63.55.2
[15:42] <bilalakhtar> It is 188.248.72.71
[15:43] <bilalakhtar> My office is quite large, and I know many other people who also use freenode
[15:44] <jussi> [17:43:26] * 367 #ubuntu-offtopic *!*@188.248.72.71 elky!~melissa@ubuntu/member/pdpc.professional.elkbuntu 1274619923
[15:44] <jussi> it has a ban...
[15:44] <bilalakhtar> jussi: huh? why?
[15:44] <jussi> one sec
[15:45] <elky> That is the ban on 'theidiot'
[15:45] <jussi> elky: ahh, thanks.
[15:45] <jussi> bilalakhtar: ^^
[15:45] <elky> jussi, oddly enough, bilalakhtar reported theidiot's quit message.
[15:45] <bilalakhtar> jussi: elky: SO theidiot connected from my office?
[15:46] <elky> I smell socks.
[15:46] <bilalakhtar> I will contact the other people.
[15:46] <bilalakhtar> Quite many people use ubuntu-offtopic in my office
[15:46] <bilalakhtar> but why? thats strange
[15:46] <elky> I'd have thought they'd be working if they were in an office.
[15:47] <jussi> btw, all the offtopic ops, funkyHat, gord, topyli, tonyyarusso etc please check your bans in there. we have a growing list and we need to make sure that they arent stale.
[15:47] <jussi> Also, theres some funky webchat bans in there...
[15:48] <bilalakhtar> elky: I remember theidiot. Yeah, I forgot to notice that my problem began when theidiot left.
[15:49] <bilalakhtar> Infact, I left the room just after this message.
 !language | theidiot
[15:50] <bilalakhtar> I had to go and get something checked in my workplace.
[15:50] <elky> Well I'm not really wanting to let him back in.
[15:51] <bilalakhtar> elky: So what should I do? Ok, I will connect from webchat from now onw.
[15:51] <bilalakhtar> Thanks for finding the root of the problem.
[15:51] <elky> jussi, suggestion?
[15:52] <elky> bilalakhtar, i'd kind of suggest that you find who at your workplace is breaking rules.
[15:52] <bilalakhtar> elky: Ok, will do that tomorrow.
[15:52] <jussi> elky: not at the min
[15:55] <jussi> bilalakhtar: see you tomorrow then
[15:55] <bilalakhtar> jussi: Thanks. i hate theidiot, whosoever it is. cya
[16:16] <gord> thanks jussi, don't have my scripts installed on this computer
[16:17] <jussi> gord: np. please remember to look at the bans there when you get a chance
[16:17] <gord> yeah non of them are mine :)
[16:18] <jussi> hehe
[16:20] <nhandler> jussi: You realize that your ban on *!*@gateway/web/freenode/x-spoyokokuwykrazb will not work well.
[16:20] <jussi> nhandler: yes,i do.
[17:35] <jussi> 10.04 Upgrade started :)
[17:36] <jussi> whoops, wrong channel
[17:36] <knome> har har
[17:37] <jussi> was meant for -offtopic...
[17:37] <jussi> but meh
[18:19] <ikonia> ahh this guy again
[18:20] <knome> he's now at #xubuntu
[18:20] <knome> ...and spamming/flooding
[18:20] <ikonia> is he allowed in with that nick, I thought topyli asked him to change it (or tsimpson )
[18:20] <knome> i don't know, but maybe not
[18:21] <knome> looks like his attitude is not one of the best
[18:21] <ikonia> I'll let the name slide as I can't see the logs, however he's gone if he messes around
[18:23] <knome> would it be okay to point to #ubuntu-offtopic, or do you want him out of there?
[18:23] <knome> oh well..
[18:23] <ikonia> he's been in there before and knows where it is
[18:24] <knome> right. so he was there only to cause problems
[18:24] <knome> kind of could have seen that through his nick and messages
[19:59] <tonyyarusso> @btlogin
[19:59] <tonyyarusso> @login
[19:59] <tonyyarusso> @btlogin
[20:04] <tonyyarusso> jussi: that ought to take care of mine.
[21:24] <maco> tsimpson: whisky tango foxtrot
[21:25] <tsimpson> yes
[21:25] <tsimpson> I only dance while drinking whisky
[21:26] <ikonia> how odd, I'm too enjoying a glass of whiskey
[22:06] <Tm_T> ikonia: he's been asked to change the nick several times
[22:06] <ikonia> Tm_T: thank you
[22:11] <topyli> banforward, i would say
[22:12] <topyli> just my two eurocents
[22:12] <ikonia> I'll wait for him to rejoin
[22:12] <topyli> yeah. you can try once more in pm, but i doubt it will work
[22:14] <Tm_T> no point to ask nicely anymore, it's been gone thru many times already, he knows it very well
[22:14] <Tm_T> banforward for his nick
[22:15] <Tm_T> ...this headache kills me, good night everyone
[22:15] <ikonia> night
[22:15] <knome> Tm_T, rest in peace
[22:15] <knome> Tm_T, see you in afterlife
