LjL[02:15:02] *** Nisstyre is now known as Mark_Shuttlecock.01:15
* Jordan_U doubts that AlexGer has actually gotten that error from Ubuntu, and further doubts that they have any intention of actually trying Ubuntu.03:48
IdleOneyou mean the camerabin error?03:48
Jordan_UIdleOne: "No installable kernel was found in the defined APT sources." during install.04:02
IdleOneyeah I looked at scroll back I had confused them with someone else04:03
bazhangthe main helpers razzing unity and telling people to stay away from natty is not acceptable in my opinion04:39
bazhangpointing out other options, like gnome classic mode, unity 2d and the like are fine, but to say in a somewhat veiled manner -unity sucks- just invites more of the same04:40
IdleOne+104:40
Tm_Tbazhang: agreed, support channels are not the place to push anyones opinions06:04
Steristdoes anyone have a contact with the PSubuntu forum?06:08
Sterist--moderators06:08
IdleOnePSUbuntu?06:09
Steristps3's ubuntu page06:09
Jordan_UI would be surprised if anyone did. And this isn't really the place anyway.06:09
IdleOneSterist: ah, non-official builds. I don't know...06:09
Steristi figured as much but asking in the main channel is pretty much hopeless06:10
Steristsorry06:10
IdleOnethere must be a contact us link on their forums06:10
hypatiawhois their domain06:10
hypatia:D06:10
Sterist...there are still official builds cranking out for ps3 (but they dont install) all available from alternate downloads link06:11
Steristthe forums are dead as a doornail06:11
Sterist:(06:11
IdleOneSterist: what I meant by non-official was that Canonical is not involved afaik. not an official derivative.06:12
Steristpretty sure the ps3 builds are run-of-the-mill PPC6406:14
bazhang#ubuntu-ps3 iirc06:14
Steristoooh ty06:14
Steristlol you just made it :( oh well, i'll cease convo on this channel. sorry06:15
ubottullutz called the ops in #ubuntu (Guest66097 trolling, spamming)08:35
ubottuFloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (repeated abuse from guest66097)08:35
ubottuIn ubottu, llutz said: no fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot08:42
ubottushcherbak called the ops in #ubuntu ()08:48
bazhangsurprised idoru did not get hyu08:51
tsimpsonbazhang: idoru is not in #ubuntu08:52
bazhangtsimpson, ah sorry, thought it was08:52
tsimpsonit was, but not now08:52
bazhangmust be thinking of another channel08:52
bazhangah right08:52
tsimpsonit was decided at a meeting to trial removing it: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/04/24/%23ubuntu-meeting.html08:53
bazhangokay thanks08:53
bazhangnot sure why someone is using minimal install if they cannot get to the command line12:06
LjLbots behaved correctly?12:31
bazhangwell they kinda went crazy and all did +q and then -q on a serial spammer <hyu>12:31
* LjL greps12:31
LjLhmm. well i guess they behaved as expected, mostly (the spam was not of the kind that would trigger a ban) - the bad thing is the multiple -q, i'll have to fix that somehow12:33
LjLand by the way, on the topic of triggering bans - i've made a change yesterday, now whenever someone is "detected as abusive", they get banned for good12:34
LjLthe !ops message here has been changed to specify that12:34
LjLand also, they get a PM saying they should join #ubuntu-ops if it's an error12:34
bazhangadded to akick ?12:34
LjLno no, just banned as opposed to temporarily muted12:35
bazhangah right12:35
FlannelWhat sort of false positives has that been having?12:35
Flannels/sort/percentage/12:36
LjLFlannel: not many to my knowledge, since it always called !ops in the first place so ops would have complained about any false positives, i imagine ;)12:37
LjLlet me try something12:37
LjL+q me by nickname and +z the channel please12:37
LjL(and stay opped if you want to see)12:38
Flannelin #u?12:40
LjLyes12:40
LjLi'm going to spam a little - the +q is so that my spam isn't seen by users12:40
Flannelmhmm, I gathered as much12:40
Flannelauto_bleh will remove it in 10 (in case I die, etc, but fair warning)12:41
LjLdid good to test, as it isn't working =)12:42
* LjL is bit puzzled12:46
jussiLjL: also, having 3 of them opped creates a bit of modespam everytime they -q someone12:48
LjLjussi: yeah that's what bazhang pointed out i think. wish the server ignored the other -q's (it does ignore +q's)12:49
LjLi'll have to find a solution to that12:49
FlannelNo notification, by the way.12:50
LjLindeedely12:50
FlannelLjL: I think you're back to normal now12:50
LjLyes, good idea to point that out12:50
FlannelLjL: So don't go spouting randomness :)12:51
LjLjussi: i should have worked around the -q spam now, but anyway i might eventually just go back to having only one opped at a time. i thought having all three opped would improve reaction time, but i'm not even so sure12:56
LjLjussi: have you seen/pondered my -council request of yesterday?12:58
jussiLjL: ahh yes - I was waiting for you to join -bots-team12:59
LjLok Flannel can you +zq again? last time, i promise! maybe.13:01
bazhangashmew2 is a known issue from u-r-p days13:01
FlannelLjL: 10 minutes again13:03
Picieh?13:04
LjLwhat the hell, it still doesn't work13:04
LjLPici: testing bots13:04
PiciLjL: ah13:04
LjLi think i've broken the whole flood thing :\ reverting to old code13:06
LjLalthough i don't see how i broke it13:06
LjLactually, maybe i know. removing the floodbots for a moment to test them in different channel13:07
ubottuFloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (LjL appears to be flooding, but emergency mode is on)13:11
bazhanghehe13:11
bazhangpermaban!13:11
LjL=) sorry, are going to be a few fake calls13:11
FlannelLjL: you're done in #u13:14
LjLok13:14
LjLgoing to continue testing in #floodbot anyway13:14
ubottuFloodBot2 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (LjL appears to be abusive and has been muted, will need to be UNMUTED MANUALLY - 6)13:16
LjLFlannel: so basically all the testing in #ubuntu was useless, because i forgot about a foundamental thing - that when you mute someone manually, then the floodbots won't act on that specific mute again :)13:18
Pici-ot is especially annoying today.13:20
LjLPici: you mean language calls are especially annoying?13:21
PiciLjL: Everything.13:21
topylithis is like star trek. "commander LjL, the bots can't take much more"13:21
LjLi think one of these days the bots will revolt and permban me13:21
topyli"don't tell me what the bots can take! i created them!"13:21
LjLthe question is, will they do that first or will you :P13:22
bazhang* [h4x0rs] (~maroccain@adsl196-211-58-217-196.adsl196-10.iam.net.ma): maroccain13:22
LjLoh lord13:23
LjLso it was maroccain yesterday too?13:23
bazhangif someone else wants to handle this. he PM me some very nasty stuff last time I banned him for praising bin laden, and going on and on in that vein13:23
bazhanghe is ban evading, at the very least13:24
LjLhe managed to be banned from ##club too13:24
LjLthat really does mean he's bad :P13:24
bazhangand ##linux13:24
bazhangalong with very bad bot13:24
ikoniais h4x0rs evading yes/no ?13:49
bazhangyes13:49
ikoniait's the same guy we spoke about the other day I assume13:50
bazhangyes13:50
bazhangvery abusive and openly calling attention to his ban evading13:50
ikoniayes, I remember this discussion the other day13:50
bazhangLPIC is the linux exam?14:21
LjLje ne sais pas14:21
PiciI believe so.14:21
bazhang<sabri_icone> i want some document or blank exam if possible14:21
Pici...14:21
PiciThats likely for testing themselves, than for cheating.14:22
PiciOr at least I hope.14:22
LjLstill not quite ontopic, is it?14:22
bazhangalumni exam?14:23
bazhangblackbit wants to give me the Turing Test , I presume as he's PM'd me14:24
LjLwell drop the joke and tell him you're not a bot?14:24
bazhangsince lmsensors got dropped in natty what replaces it? gkrellm?14:29
bazhangerr lm-sensors14:30
LjLoh lord lm-sensors dropped? :(14:30
bazhangbizarre. when I just upgraded , it said obselete, but the bot says its still in14:31
ikoniaI was surprised pidgin was still in main also14:33
jpdsWait, you guys haven't done the LPIC?14:37
jpdsLjL: Point him at14:38
jpdshttp://lpi.org/eng/certification/the_lpic_program/lpic_1/exam_101_sample_questions14:38

LjL[15:42:10] --> Nisstyre has joined this channel (~nisstyre@infocalypse-net.info).14:42
LjLyesterday night this used changed nicks to Mark_Shuttlecock and some "other" user started asking him trollish things about Ubuntu being broken14:42

jribat least they are original19:04
jriboh wait19:04
LjLpeople, how about if the bots set a (brief?) +r every time there is a k-line?19:04
jribno :(19:05
LjLlately, i've often seen someone joining, getting k-lined, and then someone else gets through19:05
PiciLjL: how short?19:05
LjLtwo minutes?19:05
jribdo k-lines really involve groups of ips more often than a single ip?19:06
LjLi wouldn't know that19:06
LjLi think in these cases i'm seeing, the k-lines are happening because these people are being recognized as open proxies shortly after joining19:06
LjLbut i'm not really sure19:06
IdleOneWhy doesn't freenode just deny access to any open proxy?19:08
LjLbecause how does it know it's an open proxy?19:10
IdleOnebeats me19:10
IdleOneguess my question was stupid19:10
LjLnot particularly19:10
LjLbut there are two ways to detect open proxies19:10
LjLone is to use a blacklist, in which case you can just deny access19:11
LjLthe other is probing on the fly, but then what happens if the proxy doesn't reply immediately?19:11
IdleOneit can't send to channel until it replies19:11
LjLit's conjectures, mind, i don't know how it really works on freenode19:11
LjLIdleOne: well if it's not a proxy, then it quite possibly will never reply19:11
IdleOneok I clearer know nothing about this19:12
IdleOne:)19:12
IdleOneclearly*19:12
Pici'go kiss a cobra'?19:17
Picio.O19:17
jribyes, wasn't sure how to take that...19:17
IdleOnenot nicely19:17
IdleOneit is clear to me what it meant19:18
jribI was going to pm, but whatever19:18
PiciI guess its sort of similar to 'kiss my asp'19:18
IdleOnemore front facing but yeah19:19
jrib60 hits on google for "go kiss a cobra"19:19
PiciWierd.19:19
PiciWeird too19:19
PiciIdleOne: lars is still banned in -ot, right?20:09
IdleOneafaik20:09
IdleOnechronic ban evader he is20:10
ubottuFloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1777 users, 2 overflows, 1779 limit))20:20
IdleOneLjL: wasn't Nysstyre an issue yesterday?21:09
IdleOneNisstyre21:09
IdleOne*21:09
LjLIdleOne: yes, about when i went to bed he nicked to Mark_Shuttlecock. he said nothing himself that i saw, but another user made reference to him21:10
LjLanother user who could of course have been the same user21:10
IdleOneok well he isn't using a bad nick now. Will keep a look out21:10
