[08:41] <firtvid20> Hello
[08:47] <gggs> hey guys, I installed 11.04 yesterday, having issues with firefox; for some reason, every now and then it'll completely halt my system for 4 or 5 seconds
[08:48] <firtvid20> I've never really used firefox
[08:48] <firtvid20> gggs: Just Google Chrome for me. Maybe it's an old version of Firefox?
[08:51]  * firtvid20 is back
[09:10] <gggs> anyone have a similar issue? the issue seems to Xorg, which explains why everything stops
[09:14]  * firtvid20 thinks this channel is AFK
[11:57] <sagaci> head_victim, pingg
[13:28] <head_victim> sagaci: pong
[13:30] <sagaci> head_victim, tried to test out the bot in #mootbot-test, but doesn't seem to be working there
[13:30] <head_victim> Feel free to have a practice here :)
[13:30] <head_victim> I can play along 
[13:33] <sagaci> oh, so what stops john smith mucking around with it, or is it open to all
[13:34] <head_victim> It's pretty much open
[13:34] <head_victim> Provided as a service.
[13:38] <head_victim> Use it in here if you like, we'll do a quick run through of commands to have a play
[13:39] <sagaci> sorry, just watching that foo fighters doco
[13:40] <head_victim> No worries mate
[14:13] <gorilla> evening all.
[14:19] <head_victim> Evening gorilla 
[14:20] <sagaci> hi
[14:23] <gorilla> hi head_victim, sagaci and also the lurkers.. we know who you are :-P
[14:23]  * head_victim is a serial lurker
[14:24] <gorilla> head_victim: so that's where you keep going wrong... if you say something then you are not lurking.
[14:24] <head_victim> Oh see, I can't even lurk right :P
[14:25] <head_victim> Nah I do it alright in other channels, just hard to lead a group you don't speak to ;)
[14:25] <gorilla> head_victim: you nominate a sock puppet :-P
[14:25] <head_victim> Hah I thought I was the sock puppet heh
[14:26] <head_victim> gorilla: do you use social media much?
[14:26] <gorilla> head_victim: not much no.. I mean, I have a facebook account but wish that I didn't.
[14:26] <gorilla> I mean I wish that I didn't have to have one.
[14:26] <head_victim> Fair enough, just sussing out as many people as I can to see the best way forward for the team in that regard.
[14:27] <head_victim> The whole group versus individual account thing
[14:28] <gorilla> yeah. I have been following the thread on the mail list and not sure what the best option is.
[14:36]  * firtvid20 is not AFK
[14:37] <firtvid20> How do I set a mode on IRC?
[14:39] <head_victim> firtvid20: dpends on what sort of mode
[14:40] <head_victim> gorilla: cool just checking
[14:40] <firtvid20> Like say if you wanted to hide your hostname?
[14:41] <head_victim> firtvid20: that's a cloak, not a mode.
[14:41] <head_victim> !cloack
[14:41] <head_victim> !cloak
[14:41] <head_victim> Heh typo
[14:41] <firtvid20> !clock
[14:42] <firtvid20> lubotu2: Cool, I'll have a looksie
[14:42] <head_victim> No worries
[14:42] <head_victim> !cookie
[14:43] <firtvid20> lol, I have to pay to get a cloak.
[14:44] <head_victim> No, you CAN pay to get a cloak
[14:44] <head_victim> You can get unaffiliated ones for nothing I thought
[14:45] <firtvid20> Oh yeah
[14:45] <firtvid20> Also, when I tried upgrading my Ubuntu from 10.10 to 11.01, some of the repo packages couldn't download from the Optus repo. D:
[14:46] <head_victim> Might have just been in the middle of a sync
[14:47] <firtvid20> Yeah, I should try again tomorrow
[14:48] <firtvid20> I also had this problem with another friend's laptop updating from 10.01 to 10.10. It wouldn't update just because it couldn't download an "important" package from Optus
[14:49] <head_victim> I'd suggest trying a different repository
[14:49] <head_victim> aarnet is pretty good
[14:50] <firtvid20> Ok, I'll take note of that. Thanks.
[14:50]  * firtvid20 gives head_victim a cookie
[14:51] <head_victim> Hah thanks
[14:52] <firtvid20> :p
[14:52] <sagaci> aarnet or internode
[14:57] <head_victim> Evening quail_laptop 
[15:34] <head_victim> sagaci: I'm off for the night but if you want to test out mootbot feel free.
[15:35] <sagaci> thx
