macoso theres now someone in #ubuntu with the nick BakaGaijin00:39
macowhich is literally "stupid foreigner" in japanese, but erm...that word for foreigner is quite xenophobic (the more-proper word would be gaikokujin)00:40
bazhangyeah and popeye00:42
bazhanggiving advice to reset your bios00:45
mneptokmaco: does Kubuntu ship OO.org or KOffice by default?00:45
bazhangLinuxGuy2009, how may we help you00:58
LinuxGuy2009bazhang: Whats with the boot? You didn't know the answer and someone else did. You taking that personally?00:59
LinuxGuy2009Im actually a volunteer that comes here to help others as well and am a member of the ubuntu bug squad.00:59
bazhangLinuxGuy2009, it had nothing to do with Ubuntu support. your attitude was unacceptable as well.00:59
LinuxGuy2009Redache: What attitude?01:00
tsimpsonmneptok: oo.org01:00
bazhangredache?01:00
LinuxGuy2009Redache: I asked a question and you didnt know the answer.01:00
LinuxGuy2009bazhang:Sorry01:00
bazhangwho is redache01:00
macomneptok: OOo01:00
LinuxGuy2009bazhang: Thats not the point. You really had no merit to boot me.01:01
LinuxGuy2009Im a volunteer as well and know what is on and off topic here.01:01
LinuxGuy2009bazhang: Would you care to explain why you booted me?01:02
bazhangLinuxGuy2009, your question was about nvidia.com. that has nothing to do with Canonical supported products. your attitude subsequent to that was not acceptable. Please read the code of conduct and guidelines01:02
bazhang!coc | LinuxGuy200901:03

bazhang!guidelines | LinuxGuy200901:03
ubottuLinuxGuy2009: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines01:03
LinuxGuy2009I have read the code of conduct and signed it. Dont give me that.01:03
bazhangfollow those going forward and we wont have a problem01:03
LinuxGuy2009Yeah i have. Im a member of the community, a volunteer on the channels and a member of the bug squad. I know the rules. The rules dont say no asking about ubuntu working with drivers for hardware.01:04
LinuxGuy2009Printers video cards, PCI devices. eyc01:04
LinuxGuy2009etc01:05
bazhangand the correct method is using hardware drivers.01:05
LinuxGuy2009That is YOUR method.01:05
bazhangthe supported method.01:05
LinuxGuy2009Not the method that must be forced on everyone01:05
LinuxGuy2009So do you think that this would be agreed upon by others? I have done nothing wrong. This is just YOU disagreeing and going a bit overboard.01:07
LinuxGuy2009Pretty common around here/01:07
bazhanghmm?01:07
LinuxGuy2009I feel like Im talking to the wall here.01:08
LinuxGuy2009I'm a member of the bug squad and cant help triage bugs about nvidia drivers if I dont know whats currently going on with them.01:09
LinuxGuy2009You can check Im a member01:09
* maco goes to read the logs01:10
LinuxGuy2009This is rediculous01:10
LinuxGuy2009https://launchpad.net/~linuxguy2009\01:11
LinuxGuy2009I read and signed the COC. I know the rules.01:11
LinuxGuy2009The rules dont say if an op doesnt know the answer to a question that he can boot ya. Thats a little overboard.01:12
LinuxGuy2009I don't have anything to apologize for so can someone please let me back?01:13
bazhangyou are not banned01:13
LinuxGuy2009You freaking booted me.01:14
bazhangthen /join #ubuntu01:14
macoLinuxGuy2009: no ban was set01:14
macoit was just a remove01:14
LinuxGuy2009I didnt say ban01:14
LinuxGuy2009he booted me01:14
macoso what do you mean by "let me back"?01:14
LinuxGuy2009OMG01:15
bazhangthere is no 'un-booting'01:15
macoif youre not banned, you can *let yourself back*01:15
LinuxGuy2009Why was I booted out in the first place?01:15
LinuxGuy2009Just cause he disagreed with me?01:15
macoand i think <LinuxGuy2009> bazhang: You have no clue in other words <-- the accusatory tone was problematic. or i would find it so.01:15
LinuxGuy2009Well thats obviously the case cause he just kept repeating himself and didnt know the answer and didnt help.01:16
LinuxGuy2009Thats not my problem he didnt know.01:16
macojust because someone tells you "this is the accepted way" doesnt mean they dont know other ways01:16
macobut rather they know *not to tell* other ways01:17
LinuxGuy2009There is no part in the COC that says anything about that.01:17
macojust as all of the forum mods know how to enable a root password, we have a *policy* of not telling it on the forum01:17
LinuxGuy2009Some of this stuff you guys make up on the go it seems.01:17
LinuxGuy2009Its bad enough dealing with trolls01:18
LinuxGuy2009Then i have to worry about asking a wrong question cause a mod will take it a bit too far.01:19
LinuxGuy2009But someone else did know the answer to my question and was very helpful and knew exaclt why the nvidia drivers are not working.01:19
LinuxGuy2009Thank you very much01:19
maco*shrug* i guess i shouldve just gone with "if it ain't in the repo, it ain't supported"01:20
bazhanghate to see what a reaction a ban would have been like.01:21
Picihrm.01:36
PiciI don't think that I really agree that asking about nvidia's drivers is offtopic.  We help people who are trying to compile software that isn't in the repos.01:40
bazhangright. I misspoke in my haste. not supported rather.02:41
