| ebel | hello | 11:56 |
| ebel | there are people here, but they aren't always looking at this channel | 11:57 |
| ebel | !wait | 11:57 |
| lubotu3 | Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 11:57 |

| ebel | what's wrong? | 11:58 |
| qwerbirc | I simply cant use my cellphone for bluetooth dialup!I cant connect my phone by cable,so now I brought a bluetooth dongle.But,I can use it for dial up purpose!It has an SPP profile | 11:59 |
| qwerbirc | Can you help me out? | 12:01 |

| czajkowski | qwerbirc: be patient people could be working | 12:02 |
| czajkowski | where are you ? | 12:02 |
| qwerbirc | Means? | 12:03 |
| ebel | Physically, where are you? | 12:03 |
| qwerbirc | At home | 12:03 |
| ebel | I'm guessing USA, which will affect what mobile network you're trying to connect to. | 12:03 |
| qwerbirc | I am in INDIA. | 12:04 |
| ebel | it also will affect what sort of ISP you're trying to dial up to. | 12:04 |
| qwerbirc | My phone has an SPP(Serial Port Profile).I want to use this for dial up. | 12:04 |
| qwerbirc | I tried GNOME PPP but failed.I even tried BlueMan. | 12:05 |
| ebel | have you ever been able to use your phone for dial up internet? | 12:05 |
| ebel | (The reason I thought you were from USA was cause you said "cellphone". ;) ) | 12:06 |
| ebel | just to confirm, do you want dial up internet or 3G mobile internet? | 12:06 |
| qwerbirc | ya...cellphone....mobile phone...cell.....whatever.......please help! | 12:06 |
| qwerbirc | dial up internet | 12:07 |
| ebel | sometimes people 'tether' their mobile phone to their PC, which is different from using it as a dial up modem | 12:07 |
| qwerbirc | I dont know how to tether! | 12:08 |
| ebel | It's been years since I've used a dial up modem, so I'm afraid I don't really know what to do... | 12:09 |
| czajkowski | qwerbirc: !in | 12:09 |
| czajkowski | !in | 12:09 |
| lubotu3 | #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India | 12:09 |
| czajkowski | qwerbirc: or ask in #ubuntu as there may be more users there who may be able to help | 12:10 |

| czajkowski | qwerbirc: also askubuntu.com is a good resource | 12:11 |

| dusf | Irish repo down? | 16:37 |
| dusf | http://pastebin.com/ncYuQvzr | 16:37 |
| thethomaseffect | I've been getting en-ie 404s for a good while | 16:47 |
| dusf | thethomaseffect: crap | 17:03 |
| dusf | thethomaseffect: do you mean for a good while today, or a good while more than that? | 17:04 |
| thethomaseffect | Way longer | 17:06 |
| czajkowski | I do also | 17:07 |
| czajkowski | and tweeet it | 17:07 |
| czajkowski | and done again | 17:08 |
| dusf | did you guys switch to gb? | 17:19 |
| dusf | ]/window 11 | 17:19 |
| czajkowski | dusf: no | 17:20 |
| czajkowski | dusf: that defeats the purpose of finding out stats on downloads | 17:20 |
| dusf | czajkowski: please elborate | 17:21 |
| czajkowski | dusf: do you work in HEAnet ? | 17:21 |
| dusf | czajkowski: i do not, no | 17:21 |
| dusf | but i know what it is if that helps... | 17:21 |
| czajkowski | so you just saw my twet and joined | 17:22 |
| czajkowski | fine | 17:22 |
| czajkowski | dusf: you can see the downloads from heanet for different os | 17:22 |
| czajkowski | if we change the mirror to an UK one | 17:22 |
| dusf | i didn't see your tweet either, i joined because this is the irish ubuntu channel :) | 17:22 |
| czajkowski | it wont count as a download in ireland | 17:22 |
| dusf | czajkowski: if changed we won't know how many irish users etc? | 17:22 |
| czajkowski | and looks like less people taking it up | 17:22 |
| czajkowski | yes | 17:22 |
| dusf | right... i can appreciate that, but how long has this problem been going on exactly? | 17:23 |
| czajkowski | weeks | 17:23 |
| czajkowski | and you only get 404s at some times of the day | 17:23 |
| czajkowski | they know there is an issue | 17:23 |
| czajkowski | and are working on it | 17:23 |
| dusf | yeah, because i know i've installed some stuff | 17:25 |
| dusf | czajkowski: i know ubuntu is free, but curiously why is it taking weeks? | 17:27 |
| dusf | and have they any idea of the root cause? | 17:27 |
| czajkowski | thats HEAnet issue | 17:27 |
| czajkowski | not Ubuntu issue | 17:27 |
| czajkowski | it's just a 404 error message | 17:28 |
| czajkowski | if you give it a few hours it's fine | 17:28 |
| dusf | i see | 17:28 |
| dusf | i wonder who else is affected | 17:28 |
| dusf | czajkowski: are the ubuntu stats public btw? | 17:30 |
| czajkowski | it's more downloads it's just a graph | 17:30 |
| czajkowski | I'm sure they're there on heanet site somewhere | 17:30 |
| dusf | i shall look for it | 17:32 |
| dusf | czajkowski: is there a press release on the problem? nothing on your tweet, just started following you | 17:33 |
| czajkowski | dusf: you're really making more of it than needs be tbh | 17:35 |
| dusf | czajkowski: i'm not making more of anything, i'm curious as to what the problem which would expect me to only download and upgrade at certain times of the day is, and why it's taking so long for such an organisation to fix | 17:38 |
| czajkowski | has it actually ever effected you in the last few weeks | 17:39 |
| dusf | surely you don't think people only being able to download and upgrade from the repos at certain times of the day isn't a big problem which would spark interest | 17:39 |
| czajkowski | was it natty or maverick | 17:39 |
| dusf | today is the first time, and i use natty | 17:40 |
| czajkowski | well there you go then | 17:40 |
| czajkowski | you've been effected once | 17:40 |
| czajkowski | if it happens more often file a bug or email mirrors at heanet | 17:40 |
| czajkowski | dusf: what is your twitter nick | 17:41 |
| dusf | czajkowski: understand i'm not complaing, i'm just curious about the problem and i would be curious no matter how many times effected :) | 17:44 |
| czajkowski | http://twitter.com/#!/garrethmalone/status/69004615965868032 | 17:45 |
| czajkowski | go talk to him so | 17:45 |
| dusf | czajkowski: will do when twitters functioning properly, thanks | 17:51 |
