| bazhang | azzy_somenumbers | 01:52 |
| rww | vhdl in #ubuntu was being annoying in #freenode earlier, best keep an eye on them. | 02:42 |
| bazhang | very | 02:42 |
| bazhang | that 2001:470 looks very familiar in fact | 02:43 |

| bazhang | sock puppeting | 03:07 |
| rww | nod | 03:07 |

| bazhang | ie wanking was already banned but still in the channel | 03:07 |
| rww | yeah, I clean up stuff like that when ubottu pokes me to review the ban | 03:09 |
| bazhang | I got vhdl in PM, no response yet | 03:09 |
| rww | about asking to ask a question and not actually asking it? | 03:09 |
| Flannel | VHDL? | 03:09 |
| Flannel | Oh, that's a nick. | 03:10 |
| Flannel | I thought you were getting code in PM | 03:10 |
| rww | Flannel, always the EE :( | 03:10 |
| bazhang | heh yeah | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | 4th time vhdl asks if he can ask a question | 03:20 |
| bazhang | well he can! and he has! | 03:21 |
| bazhang | he needed to say "can I ask 5 questions?" | 03:21 |
| Flannel | just tell him SIGNAL questions : STD_LOGIC_VECTOR (4 DOWNTO 0) := "11111"; | 03:23 |
| Flannel | Maybe he'll understand that better! | 03:24 |
| Flannel | Hi MUILTFN_, how can we help you? | 03:27 |
| bazhang | and he's back | 03:39 |

| bazhang | I suspect its capntrade | 04:16 |
| rww | so do i. silly IPv6 :( | 04:16 |
| Jordan_U | Is it just me or do people asking for help in another language tend to do so almost in groups? | 06:32 |
| bazhang | MUILTFN_, hi | 07:10 |
| bazhang | man wget | 08:39 |
| ikonia | waste of time trying to help people | 08:42 |
| ikonia | "I know what I'm doing, I'm certified, I working a hosting centre" | 08:42 |
| ikonia | then why are you asking for help ? | 08:42 |
| bazhang | psilocybe seems to be wasting time | 08:42 |
| ikonia | done with it | 08:42 |
| ikonia | hello soreau | 11:03 |
| soreau | Hello all, I have a problem with !nvidia and !ati factoids in #ubuntu. They point to the link called https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto which suggests (by it name) that you must install a binary (proprietary) driver which is not the case for most cards, especially in light of the new FOSS driver situation | 11:03 |
| soreau | hi ikonia | 11:03 |
| ikonia | ok, so what would you suggest for the name of the page ? | 11:03 |
| soreau | Well I havent thought that far out, give me a moment please, its 5am here :) | 11:04 |
| soreau | ikonia: I would think it should be named something less biased toward binary drivers | 11:05 |
| soreau | VideoDriverHowTo? | 11:05 |
| ikonia | ok, seems reasonable | 11:05 |
| ikonia | are you happy with the content that is there ? | 11:07 |
| * soreau looks | 11:08 | |
| soreau | ikonia: Not fully but I can edit the page later | 11:08 |
| soreau | To make it more generic | 11:09 |
| ikonia | ok, so lets get a new page then | 11:09 |
| ikonia | !ati | 11:09 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 11:09 |
| * soreau second guesses | 11:10 | |
| ikonia | hang on | 11:11 |
| soreau | ok | 11:11 |
| ikonia | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 11:13 |
| ikonia | happy ? | 11:13 |
| soreau | !ati | 11:14 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 11:14 |
| soreau | ikonia: Not yet ;) | 11:14 |
| ikonia | I'll change that next | 11:14 |
| soreau | I know, j/k | 11:14 |
| ikonia | are you happy witht he new page | 11:14 |
| ikonia | ahh, cool | 11:14 |
| soreau | This will help shape the guide | 11:14 |
| ikonia | ok, I'll update the factoid if you can get to work on the page content | 11:14 |
| * soreau logs in | 11:15 | |
| soreau | ikonia: Thank you for this attention, this has been bugging me for some time now | 11:16 |
| ikonia | no problem | 11:17 |
| ikonia | !ati is <sed> /BinaryDriverHowto/VideoDriverHowto | 11:18 |
| ubottu | Missing end delimiter | 11:18 |
| ikonia | !ati is <sed> /BinaryDriverHowto/VideoDriverHowto/ | 11:18 |
| ubottu | Nothing changed there | 11:18 |
| ikonia | !ati | 11:18 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 11:18 |
| tsimpson | it's !binarydriver | 11:18 |
| ikonia | are they linked to ati/nvidia etc | 11:18 |
| ikonia | ? | 11:18 |
| tsimpson | !+ati | 11:18 |
| ubottu | <alias> binarydriver | 11:18 |
| ikonia | ah, thank you | 11:18 |
| ikonia | !binarydriver is <sed> /BinaryDriverHowto/VideoDriverHowto/ | 11:18 |
| ubottu | I'll remember that ikonia | 11:18 |
| tsimpson | there's also !binarydriver-#ubuntu+1 | 11:19 |
| ikonia | is that the same content ? | 11:19 |
| ikonia | !binarydriver-#ubuntu+1 | 11:19 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | The ATI and nVidia binary drivers may not currently be installable. | 11:19 |
| ikonia | !binarydriver-#ubuntu+1 is <sed> /BinaryDriverHowto/VideoDriverHowto/ | 11:19 |
| ubottu | I'll remember that ikonia | 11:19 |
| ikonia | tsimpson: perfect, thank you | 11:20 |
| tsimpson | :) | 11:20 |
| ikonia | do you really need the <sed> keyword, I'm sure I've done substitution without ? | 11:20 |
| soreau | !ati | 11:20 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 11:20 |
| soreau | I have changed the header bullet so far.. | 11:21 |
| soreau | I intend to update the rest of the page over time | 11:21 |
| ikonia | ok, well, as long as it gets done in a reasonable time it will be a good udpate | 11:21 |
| soreau | ikonia: thanks again for your attention | 11:24 |
| ubottu | In ubottu, juk said: tethering is For creating an adhoc host with Ubuntu see: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-an-adhoc-host-with-ubuntu.html | 11:53 |
| popey | that guide is flawed | 12:03 |
| ikonia | an ubuntugeek.com guide is flawed, NO !!!!!!! | 12:23 |
| ikonia | shock horror | 12:23 |
| ikonia | </sarcasm> | 12:23 |
| ikonia | ;) | 12:23 |
| elky | Say it isn't so | 12:25 |
| bazhang | <vhdl> can I run ubuntu on a nokia flip phone? along with "can I ask a question?" 23 or so times | 12:30 |
| ikonia | he's done that before too | 12:30 |
| bazhang | any reason not to mute? | 12:30 |
| bazhang | he never answers when asked about the specs for the phone, or at all | 12:31 |
| ikonia | he's had his warning now, any more, just end it | 12:31 |
| ikonia | lag | 12:37 |
| bazhang | muted and got him in PM | 12:37 |
| bazhang | ah I see you removed him, thanks | 12:37 |
| ikonia | just joined #debian as he was muted | 12:38 |
| ikonia | behaving like a fool in #freenode too | 12:38 |
| ikonia | enjoy | 12:38 |
| tsimpson | ikonia: you can use "!foo =~ ..." (or !foo ~=) instead of "!no foo is <sed> ..." | 12:48 |
| ikonia | ahh, that's it | 12:48 |
| vhdl | hi, why was quieted in #ubuntu? | 16:45 |
| popey | repeated "can I ask a question?" "can I run ubuntu on a flip phone"? | 16:46 |
| IdleOne | vhdl: your current behaviour in #ubuntu-offtopic shows me that the quiet in #ubuntu will not be removed anytime soon. Anything else we might help you with? | 16:51 |
| topyli | vhdl: if you have no other issues, please leave this channel, as idling is not allowed here | 16:54 |
| vhdl | http://blog.feenode.net/?=1210 says you guys are wrong | 16:54 |
| vhdl | i will appeal this to freenode | 16:55 |
| mrmist | Posting that sort of link won't really help matters for you. | 16:55 |
| vhdl | lol | 16:55 |
| vhdl | lol | 16:56 |
| topyli | hrm | 16:56 |
| Pici | hrm indeed | 17:03 |
| topyli | ni niko :) | 17:08 |
| Pici | vhdl is now requesting an ubuntu-sexytime/vhdl cloak in #freenode | 17:15 |

| Jak3 | ikonia /hello | 18:14 |
| ikonia | how can we help | 18:14 |
| Jak3 | how do i send a private message? | 18:14 |
| ikonia | for those sort of questions it's best to ask in the channel of the client you are using | 18:14 |
| ikonia | normally /msg $user | 18:15 |
| ikonia | also #freenode is good for general irc advice | 18:15 |
| Jak3 | also... is there a technical channel? | 18:16 |
| Pici | As relating to what? | 18:16 |
| ikonia | technical channel for what ? | 18:16 |
| Jak3 | like keyboard.... resolution.... wireless..... etc | 18:16 |
| Pici | Jak3: For Ubuntu? | 18:17 |
| Jak3 | no | 18:17 |
| Jak3 | backtrack | 18:17 |
| Pici | Jak3: #backtrack-linux we do not support Backtrack in ubuntu channels. | 18:17 |
| ikonia | Jak3: I've told you before | 18:17 |
| ikonia | #backtrack-linux | 18:17 |
| Jak3 | but how do i register???? | 18:17 |
| Jak3 | =@ | 18:17 |
| Pici | !register | 18:17 |
| ikonia | Jak3: I've told you that also | 18:17 |
| ubottu | Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode | 18:17 |
| ikonia | Jak3: if you are having problems ask in #freenode | 18:17 |
| Jak3 | hold on brb.... just kick me the now... i will c&p that.... | 18:18 |
| ikonia | what ? | 18:18 |

| Jak3 | brb... gotta eat dinner | 18:19 |
| Jak3 | bye | 18:19 |
| ikonia | bye | 18:19 |
| Pici | bye | 18:19 |
| Pici | o.o | 18:19 |
| ikonia | spent about an hour with him in pm last night (or night before) explaining to him how to register and join #backtrack-linux | 18:19 |
| Pici | ugh | 18:19 |
| ikonia | and explaining #freenode's use to him | 18:20 |
| ikonia | etc | 18:20 |
| ikonia | hello again jak | 18:32 |

| Jak3 | sorry...its not a problem.... just bored..... | 18:33 |
| Jak3 | i will go now | 18:33 |
| ikonia | ok, well, this channel isn't for chatting | 18:33 |
| Pici | Jak3: Our chat channel is #ubuntu-offtopic | 18:33 |
| ikonia | try #defocus | 18:33 |
| Pici | Or that | 18:33 |
| Jak3 | saying cant send to channel.... | 18:34 |
| ikonia | what command are you using to join | 18:34 |
| Jak3 | on #defocus | 18:34 |
| Pici | defocus requires voice. | 18:34 |
| ikonia | I shouldn't have pointed you there, | 18:34 |
| Jak3 | ohhhh | 18:34 |
| ikonia | Jak3: ask in #freenode | 18:35 |
| Jak3 | ok | 18:35 |
| Pici | No. | 18:35 |
| ikonia | Jak3: this channel is for #ubuntu | 18:35 |
| Pici | They won't like him asking in #freenode. The instructions are in the topic of that channel. | 18:35 |
| Jak3 | im in ubuntu-offtopic i will go now | 18:35 |
| Pici | okay | 18:35 |
| ikonia | he's going to start asking about backtrack...I know it | 18:36 |
| ikonia | he can't help himself | 18:36 |
| Pici | le sigh | 18:36 |
| ikonia | das sigh | 18:36 |
| jpds | вздох. | 18:57 |
