[00:16] madsailor: Hello! Anything we can help you with? [00:17] rww, nope, just lurking. Thanks! [00:18] madsailor: as you can probably tell from the /topic, it isn't a place to idle in. Please feel free to /part at your earliest convenience [00:20] h00k, ok, sorry. Was just interested in the issues that you may deal with. I'll see myself out. [00:21] Sorry, I also missed the topic *really* my bad [00:24] :) [00:40] h00k, it's worth giving them the link to the logs when you usher them out. [00:40] I PMed them with it. [00:40] Might be worth putting in /topic [00:40] elky: yeah...you're right, I should have. [00:41] rww: thanks for getting my back! === elky changed the topic of #ubuntu-ops to: Welcome to the home of the Ubuntu IRC Team operators | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam | This channel is for operator/abuse questions in the IRC Team domain only | LoCo channel discussion/issues to #ubuntu-irc | Please exit the channel once your issue is dealt with. | We reserve the right to remove idlers | Channel is logged at irclogs.ubuntu.com [00:43] thar. [01:17] We should put a note in the topic saying that they should read the topic too! [01:23] Recursion...some people would never escape! [01:48] Hello all. Thanks for the redirect to the logs earlier. I've noticed that questions go unanswered for long periods sometimes in #ubuntu-beginners. Would it be possible to have ubottu msg a redirect to the main #ubuntu channel rather than leaving people to wait indefinately? Would this be a bad idea for some reason? [02:19] madsailor: That's a good question, and others involved in #ubuntu-beginners/ubottu are best to answer it [02:19] madsailor: unfortunately, I'm not an op over in #ubuntu-beginners [02:20] h00k, oh, I thought the Ubuntu family of channela sll fell under #ubuntu-ops. Where should I go to ask. I don't want to PM a channel op out of the blue [02:21] The core channels come under this one, team channels go under #ubuntu-irc. you're more likely to find the right people there [02:23] ok elky, I'll check there. [02:23] thanks [02:23] madsailor: ops throughout all of the channels reside in here, but we're not all ops all over the #ubuntu*-namespace [02:23] I mean...individually [02:23] if that makes sense? [02:24] h00k, yep, I get it [02:24] Cool [02:26] There is some hope! [02:27] that not everyone that joins this is all ZOMG UNBAN ME and stuff. [02:30] * gpc sets mode -b h00k*!*@* [02:31] wooo [02:31] * h00k loads script autorun/revolvingdoor.pl [02:40] Gulfstream has set up a channel #ubuntuPE [02:41] "Professional Edition" [02:41] hehe [02:42] Hi, can I create the channel ##ubuntuPE? [02:42] I just /cycle'd in there and now have +o [02:42] Gulfstream: here is the thing [02:43] #channels are official project channels [02:43] ##channels aren't [02:43] but if UbuntuPE is to be an official project, wouldn't #ubuntupe work? [02:44] but it's not [02:44] for it to become an official project channel then there are steps to follow [02:44] so I am not allowed to create a project called 'UbuntuPE'? [02:44] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/CreatingChannels [02:45] Well, Ubuntu PE is not an official subproject of Ubuntu as of now, so it wouldnt get an official #ubuntu* channel [02:45] Gulfstream: What sort of changes are slated for it? [02:45] and given Canonical's trademark rules regarding the word "Ubuntu" i doubt you would be permitted to start another distro with that name [02:45] (changes from the original Ubuntu) [02:46] I guess it's not worth it... [02:46] *shrug* all he'd have to do is make up a new name [02:47] like Ubuntu CE --> Ichthus, and Ubuntu ME --> Sabily [02:47] Depending on his changes, he may be able to use 'remix' per TM policy. But it'd depend on the nature of those changes [02:47] I think he wants to add java, codecs, adobe reader... [02:47] libreoffice [02:47] We'll never know! [02:47] no changes. topic is do a recommended reinstall every six months [02:48] thunderbird [02:48] so mint , minus the green wallpaper [02:50] but probably the same menu [02:50] OH, and Chess. [02:50] He mentioned Chess. [02:50] Chess is fun [02:50] not that 3d chess with the floating board, makes me dizzy [02:50] If he's just changing default packages installed, then from what my cursory re-read is, he could use 'remix' [05:49] !mint =~ s/, p/. P/ [05:49] I'll remember that rww [06:05] anyone see a downside to appending "(webchat link: http://tinyurl.com/mintirc )" or something to the end of !mint? [06:08] fine with me [06:09] In the interests of distro harmony, I will neglect to voice the opinions I have formed in the last 10 minutes about Linux Mint's choices when they set up their IRC channels. [06:15] (meanwhile, the Mint user that just stomped out of #ubuntu hasn't been in #linuxmint-* that I can see. [06:15] ) [06:26] for some reason they never do seem to go there [06:26] I idled in there for a week once. Let's just say the channel isn't spilling over with answered support questions. [08:49] its-me-again is not even using ubuntu [08:49] LMDE [09:25] chupacabra seems to want to cause issues [13:23] KREDO called the ops in #ubuntu () [15:35] 08:43 <+minty-fresh> hello how can i find my ip address that works for me. [15:35] ifconfig one dont work and the one in [15:35] http://www.whatismyip.com/ i am trying to set this up [15:35] http://senk9.wordpress.com/2010/09/26/how-to-stream-media-onto-your-android-device-easily-from-anywhere/ [15:35] it-me-again asking in #mintsupport about the same problem he had aon "ubuntu" [17:40] hello jungli, what do you want today ? [17:40] ikonia: good evening [17:40] what do you want today ? [17:40] Sir i want to talk about my ban [17:40] there is nothing to talk about [17:41] plz sir don't be so rude [17:41] once unbanned me [17:41] I'm not, I'm stating a fact, there is nothing to discuss [17:41] you will not be unbanned, so there is nothing to discuss [17:41] so what should i do [17:41] not use the ubuntu channels [17:41] sir i am ubuntu user too [17:42] that doesn't change anything [17:42] its fair ? [17:42] so unless there is another issue apart from your ban you wish to talk about, please leave the channel [17:42] hey ikonia plz [17:43] Jungli: nothing to talk about - take your jungli nick, your spicemaster nick, your john-smith nick and all the others and play elsewhere [17:43] please leave the channel [19:03] err ^ [19:03] * Pici shrugs [19:36] Er, why would someone address a question to chanserv in #ubuntu, chanserv isn't even in there?! [20:06] Pici: :D [20:07] irc client shows private messages in the active channel window? [20:18] Pici: you beat me to /at [20:18] He seems to be looking for "prostitutas" [20:19] ohboy [20:35] how much is he offering? because it's been cold here and i'm gonna have a killer heating bill. [20:40] mneptok: wouldnt you be a prostituto? [20:53] we get all semantic-y over something like this. lol. [20:54] maco: again, how much is offered? for the right price ... [20:57] I left him muted, you're free to op up and see if hes still asking. [21:00] he probably won't cover travel expenses and wardrobe, so forget it.
