bazhangdescribing an issue with gnome3 as "just a wee issue"03:09
bazhang!gnome303:10
ubottuGnome 3 is not currently supported on Ubuntu. A PPA for natty is available at https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3 but these packages are EXPERIMENTAL and UNSTABLE, will break Unity and possibly other parts of your system, and cannot be downgraded safely.03:10
rwwperhaps they meant "just a whee issue", as in "whee, this rollercoaster of pain is delightful!"03:23
bazhang<whigbert> what, can't I say goddamn? goddamn03:27

bazhangrww, yep, the floodbots do it on remove03:33
bazhangugh more macbuntu03:35
rwwI for one love it when people (e.g. XAMPP users) come in to #ubuntu, get told that their silly thing isn't supported in #ubuntu, and continue asking anyway :|04:03

Juesthi19:44
rwwhello!19:44
Juesti was banned again from main ubuntu...19:44
Juesti am **19:45
rwwone sec, I'll go take a look19:45
Juestok19:45
CarlFKJuest: do you have a launchpad page?19:47
rwwCarlFK: What does that have to do with anything?19:48
rwwJuest: Alrighty, I'm looking at the record now. While I'm doing that, can you describe why you think you were banned?19:48
CarlFKrww: gives me an idea what else someone does19:49
Juestwah....19:49
rwwCarlFK: That's not really relevant to what they've done in #ubuntu, which is the determining factor for whether they should be allowed in it.19:49
Juestwell, i lied to someone there when it asked if i had left rooted gui...19:49
Juesti use rooted gui19:50
topylibad idea, but no reason to be banned19:50
Juestbut it doesn't matter because i need help with packages cludging19:51
Juestumm, yeah, bad idea... seems the guy who banned me didn't tolerated that19:52
Juestummmm19:52
Juestwell19:52
Juestso?19:52
Juestah, i don't remember who banned me19:52
rwwit was ikonia. I'm pondering the situation with a couple of others right now, hang tight :)19:52
Juesterrr,  does log says about kicking reasons?19:53
Juestah yeah....19:53
Juestikonia, right19:53
IdleOneJuest: patience :)19:54
Juesti don't remember my kick/ban reason...... and, Why rooted gui is unsupported19:54
Juest????19:54
Juestok19:54
rwwJuest: Alrighty, here's the deal. I'm fine with removing your ban, but you need to understand that running as root isn't a good idea and running as root itself and the consequences of doing so are not supported in #ubuntu19:54
rww!root19:54
ubottuDo not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo19:54
rwwthat URL has a lot of info on the subject19:55
Juestah thanks...19:55
rwwAs I understand it, you run as root on a daily basis, right?19:56
Juesti know the risks about rooted gui,  but i like ti19:56
Juestto*19:56
Juestyes, i login as root in a daliy basis...19:57
rwwAlrighty. Do you have a non-root user available on your system?19:57
IdleOneJuest: problem is that #ubuntu does not support running as root. So if you are having problems consider that it may be because of running as root19:57
=== hypatia_ is now known as hypatia
topyliJuest: it doesn't matter much then whether or not you are allowed to #ubuntu. your use case is not supported19:57
Juestand i mainly use root to avoid pw asks19:57
Juestok19:57
Juesti have three nonrooted users...19:58
rwwJuest: Alrighty, a couple of ideas. One is that you can disable password prompts for sudo, which while not recommended is a lot better than running as root all the time. The info on that is at http://tinyurl.com/3hxmmjb. Another is that you could test problems you're having using your non-root account first and only visit #ubuntu if you have the problem there too.20:00
rwwDoes one of those ideas work for you?20:00
IdleOneso your going to join flood instead?20:01
IdleOnegood plan20:01
rwwJuest: the join/quitting isn't helpful, can you stop it please? (and did you get my last message?)20:01
Juestumm20:02

Juestwhat question?20:05

rwwDoes one of those ideas work for you?20:05
Juestaw well20:05
Juestyes, i am pretty sure that yes but i didn't tested, that's more complex than rooted gui20:06
Juestwell20:06
Juestand my problem is system wide20:07
Juestso root or not iy20:07
rwwBy "system-wide", do you mean you tested on a non-root user?20:07

FlannelJuest: Hold still please.20:09
Juestrww...20:09
rwwAlrighty, here's the deal. I'll unban you from #ubuntu. Now and in the future, you need to check with a non-root user before asking for help in #ubuntu, and use that user when we're working with you in #ubuntu to fix issues. Okay?20:09
Juesthey, i am sorry, internet sucks20:10
LjLJuest: you're responsible for just giving rww a heart attack i think20:10
Juestok20:10
Juestlol20:10
rwwBased on your quit messages, I'm doubting that's an issue with your connection and not your use of your application, but that's neither here nor there, apart from the fact it's irritating as heck.20:10
Juestyes20:10
Juestvery sorry20:10
Juestwifi + internet really sux20:11
rwwJuest: Alrighty, I've removed your ban. Please read the URL ubottu's about to send you, and then try /join #ubuntu to make sure I did it right.20:11
rww!guidelines > Juest20:11
ubottuJuest, please see my private message20:11
Juestikonia has ctcp my version...20:12
ikoniayes, I just versioned you20:12
ikoniaand I think you've been miss-leading to rww in this channel20:12
rwwikonia: had I known you were around, I would have deferred to you. Feel free to take over :)20:13
Juestwhat's wrong?20:13
Juestumm20:13
ikoniarww: not at all - I've only just returned, so rww I appreciate your input20:13
Juestwell20:13
Juestoh20:13
Juestikonia, you can always see the logs20:14
Juesterm, what's my quit said? ??20:14
IdleOneJuest: it said Bye but not important to the issue at hand20:15
ikoniaJuest: yes, as I recall you where miss-leading people about what you where doing in the channel to get help, despite being told on several occasions to stop20:15
rww"Quit: Bye" and "Client Quit", both of which mean that the application was closed, not that your connection dropped.20:15
Juestah20:15
ikoniawe then had a conversation in a private message to this, to which you tried to lie more to me to get back into #ubuntu20:15
Juestreally? oh, my normal quit msg?20:16
Juestok ikonia, i am very sorry, and my problem in my system is system-wide....20:17
Juestreally20:17
ikoniayou're problem ?20:18
ikoniayou're problem is you are unable to tell the truth to people20:18
Juestwhen i was banned i was mad and wanted to cry but i holded20:18
Juestwell20:18
Juesti am able20:18
Juestj20:18
ikoniaJuest: you have a history in the #ubuntu channels20:18
Juesti just do mistakes20:18
Juestah20:18
Juest:(20:19
ikoniaI also believe you tried to get around the ban20:19
Juestyes, check logs, i shouted in this channel when i got first ban by bazhang20:19
Juestmy disconnect message is "connection lost"20:20
rwwwhich is why I asked you to review our guidelines, btw20:20
Juestah20:21
rww(the shouting thing, that is)20:21
ikoniaforget your quit message20:21
ikoniaJuest: the bottom line is, I don't believe a thing you say20:21
* Juest goes to read guidelines in browser20:21
Juest:O20:21
Juestwhy not ikonia?20:21
ikoniaJuest: because you have been a proven liar20:21
ikoniayou've also just shown yourself more so, as "you can't remember" why you where banned, yet you clearly rememeber details20:22
Juestno, i have a hard way to comunicate,i can't express myself well unless i am on the -ar or -es channel20:23
Juestwell20:23
ikoniano - you are a liar - FACT20:23
JuestNO!20:23
ikoniait's not a communication issue20:23
ikoniaJuest: did you lie to me about running applications as root ?20:23
JuestI JUST HAVE SOCIAL IUSSES20:23
ikoniaJuest: if I ask you a question and you give me the wrong answer to decieve me, that makes you a liar - not a social issue20:24
JuestAND YES I LIED YOU BUT IT DOES NOT MATTER BECAUSE MY PROBLEM WITH MY SYSTEM IS SYSTEM WIDE20:24
ikoniayour technical problems do not matter20:24
JuestTHAT'S THE TRUTH, REALLY!!!!!20:25
ikoniapeople cannot help you why you tell them lies about your statys20:25
ikoniastatus20:25
Juestugh.20:25
ikoniaJuest: I'm going to step away now and leave rww to deal with you as he had been doing, I just wanted to make the point that you are telling lies to him about a few things20:25
Juestwell, really? i want to know where i lied?20:26
CarlFK(02:24:49 PM) Juest: AND YES I LIED20:26
ikoniaJuest: you've just said you lied20:26
rwwikonia: I'm going to go ahead and keep the ban removed for now, since I don't think this conversation has brought much to light other than that you can both use the capslock key.20:27
ikoniarww: thats your call totally20:27
Juesti answered ikonia question about if i lied him/her (ikonia) in #ubuntu20:27
ikoniaI just wanted you to have the facts that Juest has a previous record of telling lies, and knows exactly why he was banned20:28
rwwAlrighty. If this carries on being an issue, we'll cross that bridge, but for now I'd like to try the idea I said above, which is 1) following our guidelines, and 2) not asking for support if it's not something Juest can reproduce on a non-root account.20:29
Juest[16:23] (+ikonia) Juest: did you lie to me about running applications as root ? <- that question20:30
Juestwelll20:30
Juesti am fine for now, i won't never froget again to do non-root test20:31
ikoniait's not about non-root20:31
ikoniait's about you lied to multiple users *myself included* on what you where doing20:32
Juestand i did, now i got no valid session everywere when i try to use gnome20:32
ikoniayou knew what you where doing was not a good idea so you told people lies to get them to help you20:32
ikoniathat is the issue20:32
JuestOK, DAMNIT!!!!20:32
JuestI AM OFF DANG20:32
* Juest stays idle....20:35
ikoniaJuest: the ban in #ubuntu has been removed20:36
ikoniaJuest: you can use #ubuntu again, but please please - be polite to people and if someone asks you a question or tries to help you, listen to them and tell them the truth20:36
Juestyay, so, any another advice for do not got a ban again?20:36
ikoniano - just listen to people, don't lie to people and be polite to people (more info in the guideline page that rww gave you)20:37
Juesti try to listen ppl but there's sone procedures that i don't like and i prefer to do it in my own way20:37
Juestok20:38
ikoniaif you do it your own way - don't ask for help20:38

FlannelPerfM: I'm willing to remove the ban in #ubuntu only, provided you use it for its intended purpose -- technical support for Ubuntu, and not offtopic things.22:40
