PiciHows #ubuntu today?11:51
ikoniapoor11:51
ikoniamuch like when I last spoke to you yesterday11:51
Piciugh :(11:52
PiciI wonder if he thought I opped up to get rid of him.11:54
PiciI think we're going to see a lot of users today confused that the recent firefox update didn't bring them up to 4.012:13
ikoniaagreed12:19
jribupgrade of fuse-utils and libfuse2 on maverick made me unable to mount ntfs, mount command just has a return error of 21 and no error message.  I was confused for a while as to why I lost windows on the grub menu -_-  In case anyone asks about that...12:19
ikoniasounds like a quality update12:20
jribPici: wait, what am I supposed to tell people :)  (see poss in #ubuntu)12:43
Picijrib: The most recent update in maverick was just an update to 3.6.  !ff4 still applies if they want 4.012:50
jribPici: ah I see.  Poss mentioned something about "firefox4" so I wasn't sure.  Thank you12:51
LjLwhat were you saying about broken fuse yesterday jrib?12:54
jribLjL: I don't know if the update came in yesterday but with the 2.8.4-1ubuntu1.3 version of libfuse2 and fuse-utils I can't mount my ntfs partition (it fails silently and the command exits with 21).  On debian, I can mount it fine and if I downgrade to 2.8.4-1ubuntu1 I can also mount it fine12:56
LjLah, that fuse :) i was mostly wondering what you meant by fuse12:56

kunwon1hi, i seem to be banned from #ubuntu, probably due to the spam campaign waged against you intended to accomplish exactly that15:14

jriberm wasn't the kunwon1 ban placed for a different reason?16:00
PiciNo.16:01
IdleOnejrib: not according to BT16:01
jribI say that because I brought up the spam campaign when the ban was placed here, one sec16:02

ikoniaI wonder if it's worth looking at a way to make xchat do a geo-ip lookup and join the local ubuntu channel first before #ubuntu17:38
KB1JWQikonia: What problem would you be attempting to solve, the spraying of random languages into #ubuntu?17:43
ikoniayup17:43
KB1JWQikonia: Why not avoid the geo-IP dance and do it based on system language?17:43
ikoniaget local help first point of call, build local community, then move to global support17:43
ikoniaKB1JWQ: ahhh, a good suggestion17:43
KB1JWQikonia: Yeah, that's why they pay me the big bucks. :-)17:44
popeyhttp://geoname-lookup.ubuntu.com/?query=london17:44
popey:)17:44
jussiikonia: We have thought of this many times, but its always been put away as "too much work, too much maintenance" because you need to do it for 3 or 4 clients, and maintain it for every release.17:59
jussiPersonaly I'd like to have a client that has both #ubuntu and #ubuntu-$country - or perhaps some sort of specialised client to make the experience nicer for people. Ive thought about this some a few UDS's back, but without trialing things, its hard to say anything for certain.18:01
ubottuLjL called the ops in #ubuntu (paulina paulina_)18:20

LjLsorta :P18:27
cdbsAs far as I remember, after !<space>ops is called, the floodbots run /mode -zq ubuntu!*@*18:27
LjLcdbs: yeah. i was meaning to fix that, but apparently i've made it worse :P18:28
cdbserr, I meant /mode -zq ubottu!*@*18:28
LjLit should be fixed now, i'll spare you the test. will see next time there's a real call.18:29
jussithanks LjL :)18:33
PiciWeird.19:58
Pici'pedro', who I just removed from #ubuntu was claiming that he was offtopic because of some reason that I need to contact jonathan.sackett@canonical.com about.19:59
Picifrom  'peba@inode.at'20:00
charlie-tcaheh, at least he had a reason, then?20:12

pedrowho can help me with my issue20:36
IdleOneWhat issue would that be?20:37
pedrohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XO_Communications   /* Please can u ask these company nicely why they send spam wordwide20:38
KB1JWQpedro: That's not a Ubuntu question.20:38
pedrook, is launchpad somwhow related to ubuntu ?20:39
pedrofrom your opinion ?20:39
IdleOnelaunpad is a canonical project and you can get support in #launchpad20:40
IdleOnelaunchpad*20:40
pedroanyway if some of you have time just ask these guys http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XO_Communications20:40
IdleOnepedro: that is not Ubuntu related.20:41
pedroas of my knowledge launchpad hosts bug reports of ubuntu ?20:42
IdleOnecorrect20:42
pedrocan you have a look on my submissons on launchpad ?20:42
IdleOnethe Ubuntu project uses launchpad for bug tracking. but if you are having a problem with launchpad you need to ask #launchpad about it.20:43
IdleOnepedro: this is not a support channel.20:43
pedrook20:43
tsimpsonas I understand it, the LP admins are aware of that, but you can ask at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad20:44
pedrook thank and goodbye20:45
KB1JWQAnd he finally went to #launchpad.20:46
KB1JWQSimple as that.20:46
