[00:22] <rww> The colourful reign of terror ended, I see.
[00:23] <IdleOne> your colors got taken away
[00:23] <IdleOne> :/
[00:23] <IdleOne> /rsay that sucks
[00:23] <rww> probably for the best, I was thinking of doing it anyway ;P
[00:52] <Jordan_U> rww: I'd give nicholas_ some slack since that was a response to Quintin's "buy a mac".
[00:53] <rww> You should see my usual response to people bringing up ADHD O:)
[00:53] <Jordan_U> rww: I'm curious now.
[01:07] <bazhang> rwlove: troll
[01:07] <rww> i do not love why do people keep pretending i do :(
[01:07] <rww> (i know, tab complete...)
[01:08] <LjL> ftr quintin is an old troll
[01:09] <bazhang> seems so
 Let's not be IRC nazis   in response to my suggestion to be civil
[01:14] <rww> Apparently I am also an IRC nazi. MLIA.
[01:14] <elky> heh
[01:15] <bazhang> nice! now all the ops will watch this channel!
[01:15] <bazhang> whoops
[01:17] <Flannel> bazhang: I don't think the ops ever watch this channel.
[01:17] <LjL> but rww and i do!
[01:17] <LjL> and rww is an op now :P
[01:17] <bazhang> Flannel, hehe true
[01:18] <Flannel> LjL: Then he must not watch this channel now
[01:30] <bazhang> was ohsix the one arguing gksudo / sudo yesterday?
[01:30] <rww> yes
[01:30] <bazhang> aha
[01:51] <bazhang> telepac.pt :/
[01:52] <rww> who now?
[01:52] <bazhang> azzy_somenumbers
[02:42] <rww> vhdl in #ubuntu was being annoying in #freenode earlier, best keep an eye on them.
[02:42] <bazhang> very
[02:43] <bazhang> that 2001:470 looks very familiar in fact
[03:07] <bazhang> sock puppeting
[03:07] <rww> nod
[03:07] <bazhang> also /remove or /kick lets fb's ban them
[03:07] <bazhang> ie wanking was already banned but still in the channel
[03:09] <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?
[03:10] <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
[03:20] <IdleOne> 4th time vhdl asks if he can ask a question
[03:21] <bazhang> well he can! and he has!
[03:21] <bazhang> he needed to say "can I ask 5 questions?"
[03:23] <Flannel> just tell him SIGNAL questions : STD_LOGIC_VECTOR (4 DOWNTO 0) := "11111";
[03:24] <Flannel> Maybe he'll understand that better!
[03:27] <Flannel> Hi MUILTFN_, how can we help you?
[03:39] <bazhang> and he's back
[03:39] <bazhang> still no response via PM btw
[03:39]  * rww ponders banforwarding to #ubuntu-trivia
[03:39] <rww> in soviet Ubuntu, questions are asked to you!
[04:02] <rww> oh my goodness it asked a question
[04:16] <bazhang> I suspect its capntrade
[04:16] <rww> so do i. silly IPv6 :(
[06:32] <Jordan_U> Is it just me or do people asking for help in another language tend to do so almost in groups?
[07:10] <bazhang> MUILTFN_, hi
[08:39] <bazhang> man wget
[08:42] <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
[11:03] <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 ?
[11:04] <soreau> Well I havent thought that far out, give me a moment please, its 5am here :)
[11:05] <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
[11:07] <ikonia> are you happy with the content that is there ?
[11:08]  * soreau looks
[11:08] <soreau> ikonia: Not fully but I can edit the page later
[11:09] <soreau> To make it more generic
[11:09] <ikonia> ok, so lets get a new page then
[11:09] <ikonia> !ati
[11:10]  * soreau second guesses
[11:11] <ikonia> hang on
[11:11] <soreau> ok
[11:13] <ikonia> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto
[11:13] <ikonia> happy ?
[11:14] <soreau> !ati
[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
[11:15]  * soreau logs in
[11:16] <soreau> ikonia: Thank you for this attention, this has been bugging me for some time now
[11:17] <ikonia> no problem
[11:18] <ikonia> !ati is <sed> /BinaryDriverHowto/VideoDriverHowto
[11:18] <ikonia> !ati is <sed> /BinaryDriverHowto/VideoDriverHowto/
[11:18] <ikonia> !ati
[11:18] <tsimpson> it's !binarydriver
[11:18] <ikonia> are they linked to ati/nvidia etc
[11:18] <ikonia> ?
[11:18] <tsimpson> !+ati
 binarydriver
[11:18] <ikonia> ah, thank you
[11:18] <ikonia> !binarydriver is <sed> /BinaryDriverHowto/VideoDriverHowto/
[11:19] <tsimpson> there's also !binarydriver-#ubuntu+1
[11:19] <ikonia> is that the same content ?
[11:19] <ikonia> !binarydriver-#ubuntu+1
[11:19] <ikonia> !binarydriver-#ubuntu+1 is <sed> /BinaryDriverHowto/VideoDriverHowto/
[11:20] <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
[11:21] <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
[11:24] <soreau> ikonia: thanks again for your attention
[12:03] <popey> that guide is flawed
[12:23] <ikonia> an ubuntugeek.com guide is flawed, NO !!!!!!!
[12:23] <ikonia> shock horror

[12:23] <ikonia> ;)
[12:25] <elky> Say it isn't so
 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?
[12:31] <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
[12:37] <ikonia> lag
[12:37] <bazhang> muted and got him in PM
[12:37] <bazhang> ah I see you removed him, thanks
[12:38] <ikonia> just joined #debian as he was muted
[12:38] <ikonia> behaving like a fool in #freenode too
[12:38] <ikonia> enjoy
[12:48] <tsimpson> ikonia: you can use "!foo =~ ..." (or !foo ~=) instead of "!no foo is <sed> ..."
[12:48] <ikonia> ahh, that's it
[16:45] <vhdl> hi, why was quieted in #ubuntu?
[16:46] <popey> repeated "can I ask a question?" "can I run ubuntu on a flip phone"?
[16:51] <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?
[16:54] <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
[16:55] <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
[16:56] <vhdl> lol
[16:56] <topyli> hrm
[17:03] <Pici> hrm indeed
[17:08] <topyli> ni niko :)
[17:15] <Pici> vhdl is now requesting an ubuntu-sexytime/vhdl cloak in #freenode
[17:16] <jpds> Pici: Oh right.
[17:20]  * Pici has ubuntu on hilight in #freenode
[18:14] <ikonia> hello Jak3
[18:14] <Jak3> is there anyone avaliable at the moment?
[18:14] <ikonia> yes
[18:14] <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
[18:15] <ikonia> normally /msg $user
[18:15] <ikonia> also #freenode is good for general irc advice
[18:16] <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
[18:17] <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] <ikonia> Jak3: if you are having problems ask in #freenode
[18:18] <Jak3> hold on brb.... just kick me the now... i will c&p that....
[18:18] <ikonia> what ?
[18:18] <ikonia> Jak3: just type /part
[18:18] <Jak3> ok thanx....
[18:19] <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
[18:20] <ikonia> and explaining #freenode's use to him
[18:20] <ikonia> etc
[18:32] <ikonia> hello again jak
[18:32] <Jak3> hello....
[18:32] <ikonia> how can we help now ?
[18:33] <Jak3> can we talk in a private chat?
[18:33] <ikonia> why ?
[18:33] <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
[18:34] <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
[18:35] <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
[18:36] <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
[18:57] <jpds> вздох.
[18:59] <jpds> Languages with articles are for the birds.
