| bazhang | vibhav (~vibhav@59.94.140.218) has joined #ubuntu | 05:15 |
| bazhang | ban evading again vibhav | 05:15 |
| vibhav | NO | 05:15 |
| vibhav | I have a dynamic IP | 05:15 |
| vibhav | Thats why | 05:15 |
| vibhav | I can prove it | 05:15 |
| bazhang | thats ban evading | 05:16 |
| vibhav | but it was not my fault | 05:16 |
| bazhang | sure it is. | 05:16 |
| rww | You know you're banned from #ubuntu. You go in #ubuntu anyway. This is bad. | 05:16 |
| vibhav | Everytime I open my computer , my ip is changed | 05:16 |
| vibhav | and Xchat always leads me to the Ubuntu Channel | 05:16 |
| bazhang | vibhav, your chances of being unbanned just went way down. | 05:16 |
| rww | Then tell it to stop. | 05:16 |
| vibhav | WHY? | 05:17 |
| bazhang | rww, you want to handle this, or me | 05:17 |
| vibhav | Ok I am deleting it from the favourite channels | 05:17 |
| rww | bazhang: if you're familiar with the history, I'll step back. I'm not. | 05:17 |
| bazhang | rww, sure, I can handle it | 05:18 |
| vibhav | vibhav, your chances of being unbanned just went way down Why? | 05:18 |
| vibhav | And BTW i was goin to offtopic | 05:18 |
| vibhav | So bazhang why have my chances went down? | 05:18 |
| vibhav | hey bazhang! | 05:19 |
| bazhang | vibhav, just a moment please. | 05:20 |
| vibhav | ok | 05:20 |
| vibhav | Ban is removed | 05:21 |
| IdleOne | not it isn't | 05:21 |
| vibhav | IdleOne removes ban on *!*@59.94.131.220 what does this mean then? | 05:21 |
| IdleOne | you were told not to return for 96 hours | 05:22 |
| IdleOne | Now I am wondering if I should just make it a full 30 days | 05:22 |
| IdleOne | but I am stepping back | 05:22 |
| vibhav | You removed the ban? | 05:23 |
| IdleOne | vibhav: bazhang is going to help you in a minute | 05:23 |
| bazhang | vibhav, please be patient. | 05:23 |
| vibhav | Ok | 05:23 |
| Flannel | vibhav: The ban removed was not your ban in #ubuntu, which is currently still there. | 05:24 |
| vibhav | which ban was removed then Flannel ? | 05:24 |
| Flannel | vibhav: You were banned in this channel for two minutes. Prior to that, a ban on someone else was removed (again, in this channel). | 05:24 |
| Flannel | vibhav: I expect it'll be made clear in english that your #ubuntu banned is removed once it is. You won't have to try to decypher anything. | 05:25 |
| vibhav | ok | 05:25 |
| vibhav | but atleast I can be on the offtopic community? | 05:25 |
| bazhang | vibhav, sure | 05:27 |
| bazhang | vibhav, your ban in #ubuntu will be the original 96 hours, provided you dont try to join #ubuntu in that time, nor your MOM using that IP address, etc | 05:28 |
| bazhang | vibhav, please come back here at that time, and we can then move forward. | 05:28 |
| vibhav | OK | 05:29 |
| Jordan_U | WoundedPhoenix in #ubuntu appears to be lying and giving edited (s/parted/fdisk/)output from parted rather than the requested output from fdisk. I have no idea why, and I'm hoping I'm just missing something but I can't explain the output any other way. | 08:42 |
| * Jordan_U is confused. | 08:43 | |
| rww | I usually shrug and stop replying when that happens. Too many people, too little time. | 08:46 |
| Jordan_U | This has me intregued though. Either this person is lying about something really odd or something even more odd is happening on their system. | 08:47 |
| Jordan_U | I learned something new, there is a separate GNU fdisk based on libparted in universe that when installed superceeds util-linux's fdisk. | 09:05 |
| rww | !nickspam > squirming | 09:08 |
| rww | hell of an attitude on yagoo all evening, btw. | 09:10 |
| rww | I almost had words with them about accusing another user of trolling. | 09:10 |
| vibhav | I have a slight requesy | 09:27 |
| vibhav | *request* | 09:27 |
| Tm_T | yes? | 09:27 |
| vibhav | can my ban be shortened to 48 hours or 72 hours?? | 09:28 |
| Tm_T | no | 09:28 |
| vibhav | please | 09:28 |
| Tm_T | we have asked you to stay away until given time, and you still fail to follow it | 09:29 |
| vibhav | ok | 09:29 |
| vibhav | Sorry | 09:29 |
| LjL | @mark #ubuntu yagoo being clueless and mildly annoying | 11:48 |
| ubottu | The operation succeeded. | 11:48 |
| ubottu | llutz_ called the ops in #ubuntu (monkey) | 13:02 |
| ikonia | vibhav is not getting unbanned soon - he is clearly ot listning to what is being aid to him | 13:16 |
| Tm_T | ikonia: same in english? | 13:19 |
| ikonia | "not" | 13:19 |
| ikonia | "said" | 13:19 |
| Tm_T | makes sense now (: | 13:19 |
| ikonia | my keyboard is lagging due to a large repo sync]# | 13:19 |
| bazhang | <sudokill> http://lmgtfy.com/?q=freenode+register | 13:44 |
| bazhang | !lmgtfy | 13:46 |
| ubottu | While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. | 13:46 |
| LjL | bazhang: did you send that and !register to him or shall i? | 13:52 |
| bazhang | LjL, he presumably saw it the few times others got when asking about it. | 13:53 |
| bazhang | again, with his 'u' and 'ur' and 'cos' perhaps not | 13:53 |
| bazhang | Chris_H, hi | 13:59 |
| Chris_H | Hi, why am I banned in #ubuntu | 13:59 |
| bazhang | LjL, thanks for getting him to drop the "u" | 13:59 |
| Chris_H | or is it my username | 13:59 |
| LjL | let me look at it chris | 14:00 |
| Chris_H | ok | 14:00 |
| LjL | Chris_H: you've changed your nickname, that's why | 14:00 |
| LjL | Chris_H: unfortunately webchat clients have to be treated specially on #Ubuntu | 14:01 |
| LjL | Chris_H: so if you change nicknames, you need to part and rejoin | 14:01 |
| LjL | please try doing that | 14:01 |
| Chris_H | ok | 14:01 |
| Chris_H | thanks | 14:01 |
| bazhang | sug is jungli? | 14:41 |
| bazhang | seem to be from same IP | 14:42 |
| bazhang | ie victor and alejandro | 14:43 |
| Tm_T | hmm, all these are from same IP? | 14:47 |
| bazhang | yep | 14:47 |
| bazhang | a simple +q perhaps | 14:48 |
| Tm_T | ye, about to do that | 14:48 |
| bazhang | that should fix it | 14:49 |
| Tm_T | ...I pressed the enter with the same mask at the same time as you did (: | 14:49 |
| bazhang | hehe | 14:49 |
| Tm_T | and no, I'm not slow | 14:50 |
| bazhang | anything but | 14:50 |
| bazhang | if sug is in fact jungli, he's ban evading again in #ubuntu | 14:58 |
| rukix1x | quti | 15:09 |
| ubottu | FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (nikolaibo appears to be abusive and has been muted, will need to be UNMUTED MANUALLY) | 17:00 |
| ubottu | In ubottu, Logan_ said: !surround is <reply> If you're having trouble getting surround sound working in Ubuntu, try the instructions on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SurroundSound | 20:13 |
| LjL | !surround is <reply> If you're having trouble getting surround sound working in Ubuntu, try the instructions on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SurroundSound | 20:14 |
| ubottu | I'll remember that, LjL | 20:14 |
| Logan_ | LjL: thanks :) | 20:14 |
| LjL | no prob | 20:14 |
| Amaranth | Dave2: You around? Or any other staff? | 20:30 |
| Amaranth | Wondering who owns urd | 20:30 |
| micahg | hi, how do we get ubottu to recognize the xfce bugtracker/ | 20:53 |
| tsimpson | what kind of tracker is it? | 21:00 |
| charlie-tca | bugzilla.xfce.org | 21:05 |
| charlie-tca | modified bugzilla, as far as i know | 21:05 |
| asac | who is tunning the ubotX nowadays? | 21:06 |
| asac | and running? | 21:06 |
| tsimpson | depending on the bot, me | 21:06 |
| asac | ubot2 ;) | 21:06 |
| tsimpson | then you want jpds | 21:07 |
| ikonia | bazhang: sug is jungli and he was removed for ban evading using sug yesterday,Corey was pushing this with staff, I note he's done it again | 21:07 |
| asac | tsimpson: gratias | 21:07 |
| ikonia | tsimpson: apologies for missing you yesterday | 21:09 |
| tsimpson | ikonia: no problem | 21:09 |
| ikonia | tsimpson: my question was around the same as bazhang's I got an email response from the #xubuntu-ops launchpad team, but it's not something I'd triggered, do you know what this was about ? | 21:09 |
| tsimpson | charlie-tca: ubottu should now work with it | 21:09 |
| ikonia | the response came from you, hence asking you | 21:09 |
| charlie-tca | Thank you | 21:10 |
| micahg | thanks tsimpson | 21:10 |
| charlie-tca | Great! it does work! | 21:10 |
| tsimpson | ikonia: LP being silly, it was "to" another team which invited ~irc-xubuntu-ops to join it, but LP apparently isn't too discreet | 21:10 |
| ikonia | ahh | 21:11 |
| ikonia | so not something I should be actually bothere about | 21:11 |
| ikonia | I wondered if something had gone wrong, or I'd actually requested something by accident | 21:11 |
| tsimpson | nope, they invited just about every team with "ubuntu" in it from what I could tell | 21:11 |
| charlie-tca | Yes, I don't know who sent the invite out. | 21:12 |
| charlie-tca | I thought it was me, at first, too. | 21:12 |
| ikonia | excellent, so another quality team who are just behaving like idiot facebook processes | 21:12 |
| charlie-tca | yes, but I thought tsimpson responded very good. | 21:12 |
| ikonia | totally | 21:13 |
| topyli | yes the reply was nice and to the point | 21:17 |
| ubottu | FloodBot3 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1656 users, 0 overflows, 1656 limit)) | 21:26 |
| ubottu | FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (mass join (1656 users, 0 overflows, 1656 limit)) | 21:26 |
| asac | LjL: jpds: hey ho! ... what we would like to have is ubot2 to join #linaro-android on top of #linaro and #linaro-meeting (where it is already) :) ... let me know! thanks! | 21:44 |
| LjL | i don't manage the ubots, you probably want tsimpson | 21:44 |
| asac | heh. thats a loop then | 21:45 |
| LjL | why, did tsimpson tell you to ask me? | 21:45 |
| asac | jpds said that jpds runs ubot2 ... so i guess i have to wait | 21:45 |
| asac | LjL: no that was someone else ;) | 21:45 |
| LjL | i used to run an "ubotwo" but that's long gone :) | 21:45 |
| asac | kk | 21:45 |
| asac | and only the runner is admin? | 21:45 |
| LjL | i'm not sure, maybe the irc council is also admin | 21:46 |
| === soren_ is now known as soren | ||
| nhandler | asac: I think you might want ubot5 (based on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots), which is run by jussi and tsimpson | 21:48 |
| * asac checks | 21:48 | |
| asac | all i need is lp bugs ;) | 21:48 |
| asac | ubutu wiki is on snail today again | 21:49 |
| tsimpson | ubot5 does bugs too | 21:49 |
| asac | tsimpson: i am happy then ;) ... can you invite him to #linaro-android? | 21:50 |
| asac | thx! | 21:51 |
| tsimpson | :) | 21:51 |
| asac | thanks! | 21:52 |
| asac | works well | 21:52 |
| asac | the best bot so far! | 21:52 |
| asac | has the highest number, so must be best :) | 21:52 |
| tsimpson | well, it's the newest... | 21:53 |
| * Flannel goes off to register ubot99 | 21:55 | |
| ubottu | FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (repeated abuse from toad`) | 21:58 |
| * popey registers ubotA0 through ubotFF | 22:03 | |
| rww | ldunn_fn, soren: please /msg nickserv identify :) | 22:45 |
| Jordan_U | rww: ':)' isn't a very secure password. | 22:48 |
| rww | Jordan_U: It's the perfect password. It looks like an emoticon, so if you type it in-channel people don't suspect a thing! | 22:50 |
| === pleia2_ is now known as pleia2 | ||
| topyli | some say the best password is 'incorrect' | 23:31 |
| topyli | (if you forget it, your computer will simply tell you what it is) | 23:31 |
| LjL | when i get my password wrote my computer tells me things like "you type like you drive" :\ | 23:32 |
| LjL | and i don't drive very well :/ | 23:32 |
| rww | sudo insults? | 23:34 |
| Jordan_U | Anyone against "!dpkglock is <alias> aptlock"? | 23:36 |
| rww | !aptlock | 23:37 |
| ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 23:37 |
| rww | oh that. works for me | 23:37 |
| Jordan_U | !dpkglock is <alias> aptlock | 23:37 |
| ubottu | I'll remember that, Jordan_U | 23:37 |
| topyli | i don't know. isn't it better to hunt down and gracefully kill the process that's responsible? | 23:43 |
| topyli | not sure, that gets the job done just as well | 23:44 |
| Flannel | topyli: If there's no process responsible (because it's dead) you need to manually delete the lockfile | 23:44 |
| topyli | yeah i suppose | 23:45 |
| rww | fwiw, this has never ever happened to me in all my insane apt wanderings. perhaps I am merely lucky. | 23:45 |
| topyli | most of the times users just have synaptic runnign somewhere though | 23:45 |
| LjL | that's why you only use the factoid if you have a clue what's going on :P | 23:45 |
| Flannel | That's why I always force people to give me a ps aux before recommending it :) | 23:46 |
| topyli | fair enough :) | 23:46 |
| Flannel | too many apt/synaptic/adept/whatever-etc's to enumerate | 23:46 |
| rww | I thought we had another factoid somewhere for gracefully killing the process based on the PID in the lockfile | 23:46 |
| rww | !search pkill | 23:46 |
| ubottu | Found: | 23:46 |
| rww | guess not | 23:46 |
| rww | !search kill | 23:47 |
| ubottu | Found: opguide, speech recognition-#ubuntu-offtopic, stevenk, kill, resetpanels | 23:47 |
| rww | !opguide | 23:47 |
| ubottu | A guide to help operators learn some of the skills necessary to perform their jobs is available on the wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcTeam/OperatorGuide | 23:47 |
| rww | huh, didn't know we had that one. | 23:47 |
| Flannel | Why does "kill" return that? | 23:47 |
| topyli | we do. feel free to improve | 23:47 |
| Flannel | oh, skills. | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | It's apropos still :) | 23:47 |
| rww | topyli: i meant the factoid, not the guide | 23:47 |
| topyli | ah | 23:48 |
| topyli | grr it's late again and i'm pretty sure tomorrow will bring another morning | 23:49 |
| Flannel | topyli: That usually happens, yes. | 23:49 |
| LjL | is there any hope :( | 23:49 |
| Jordan_U | rww: I don't see any PID in my lock file here, it's just empty. | 23:50 |
| rww | maybe i'm thinking of something else then | 23:50 |
| Jordan_U | Interestingly the lock file is still there after dpkg finished. | 23:52 |
