[12:40] I was actually looking to get tested due to being disconnected from other channels - I googled it and I found the ubuntu site [12:40] RightLegRed: ah, i see. i will enable the testing for you [12:41] RightLegRed: try again now [12:42] Thanks very much [12:42] RightLegRed: you seem to be fine [12:42] Thanks for your help, I assume you'd rather me leave - as I see the topic states you remove idles [12:43] idlers* [12:43] RightLegRed: yeah you should leave this channel, feel free to pop back for anything though [12:43] Thanks very much [12:43] Justasic excess flooding at #ubuntu [12:44] oCean: you should be able to actually edit factoids if you @login [12:45] tsimpson: ah, ok. lemme try [12:45] tsimpson: do I have to @login every time I reconnect freenode? [12:45] @login [12:45] The operation succeeded. [12:45] !bootoptions is On some hardware configurations you need to set some kernel parameters for ubuntu to boot or work properly. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use nomodeset, acpi_osi and noapic/nolapic [12:45] But bootoptions already means something else!

The may only be required if the user is not recognized by hostmask. is also not required if an owner user is giving the command on behalf of some other user.

This message must be sent to the bot privately (not on a channel) since it may contain a password. [12:48] also, it's probably better to keep the original wiki link in the factoid and just add the modeset options to the wiki page [12:48] s/wiki/help wiki/ [12:50] tsimpson: the thing is that the wikipage in much more detail explains about the usage of nomodeset [12:51] what if I set !nomodeset to A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen (and link the wikipage) [12:51] point to the forums link from the wiki page [12:51] oh ok. [12:51] or that ^ [12:52] but you'd probably want to edit !bootoptions to have "see also !nomodeset" if you do [12:52] yep, allrighty [12:53] hehe, I once edited a wikipage and was told not to do so without contacting the owners/editors. But only after a month or so after my edit :( [12:54] well the ubuntu wiki/help is supposed to be edited by everyone, as long as it's not spam/malicious...

See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [12:54] I'll remember that, oCean [12:57] tsimpson: would this edit be ok? bootoption is /$/ See also !nomodeset./ [12:59] sure [13:00] thx [13:00] !bootoption is /$/ See also !nomodeset./ [13:00] You are editing an alias.

[13:21] trancegeek has a +q, but is now in with different ip [13:21] oh he does? [13:22] oh, and his link pasted as soon as he entered deserves a ban imo [13:23] oCean: what is the +q? pool-74-110-29-195.bflony.east.verizon.net? [13:23] yep [13:24] why does searching for "trancegeek" in the bt not return anything even though the mute is recorded [13:24] yes, that is strange, I muted him, but ubottu did not ask for a comment [13:25] is it because I had not done @login? [13:25] no, you don't have to login to ban/quiet [13:25] no, the quiet succeeded allright [13:26] I do see a comment from you though [13:26] there is a "trolling" comment recording [13:26] BT is foobar, especially with quiets [13:26] was through the web interface, that comment [14:23] hi zub [14:23] how can we help you? [14:23] hi [14:24] It seems I have a ban on #ubuntu - and I have no idea why. [14:24] ok, let me see if I can find anything about that [14:25] I looked into my logs... and to the extent of my knowledge last time I was in #ubuntu was 10th May: [14:25] 23:56 -!- zub [U2FsdGVkX1@linux.fjfi.cvut.cz] has left #ubuntu [] [14:26] oCean: 40134 [14:26] Tm_T: yes, I'm there [14:30] zub: there is clearly a ban, but I'm not sure why [14:30] zub: since a fellow OP placed the ban (may 15th) I suggest you come back later and see if that op is in [14:30] I'm not aware of any particularly stupid behaviour on my side [14:31] may 15, hm [14:31] I pinged the OP responsible, so I hope we can get this sorted out [14:31] oCean: what is the mask? is it specifically me? [14:32] (I don't know freenode in particular, but I assume it could be a mask for hostname or only for ident or whatever) [14:32] it's on U2FsdGVkX1@ [14:32] ok [14:33] so, what should I do - try coming here later? [14:33] that's the best option, yes [14:33] I'm sorry it cannot be resolved at this moment [14:33] alternatively you/(s)he/whoever might jsut /msg me, even if I'm not at the comp, I'd read it eventually [14:33] ok [14:33] bye [14:33] bye now [14:35] comments in bantracker would help, I notice again [14:35] indeed [14:37] there were a lot of seemingly malicious users connecting with U2FsdGVkX1 ident [14:38] seemingly malicious? [14:40] all I have is several users using that ident but different hostmasks joining. I don't see any malicious behaviour [14:41] that's why i said seemingly, the hostnames are pretty worrying [17:29] @mark #ubuntu seachcoz (aka LarsTorben, bjoern, das, gr, marktler and many others @57906E1F.dip.t-dialin.net, now: 7976c8e@gateway/web/freenode) still asking about his unity issue, never in a cooperative way. Exact time-wasting manner as before [17:29] The operation succeeded. [21:20] just a heads up: juest has just got a cloak :) [21:21] ace [21:21] ace? whats that? [21:21] "great" [21:21] sorry, uk talk [21:22] ok, bye then :) [21:42] hello frankcox757 [21:42] I was called a liar and rudely booted from # ubuntu without cause [21:42] hi ikonia [21:43] oh ? [21:43] when was this [21:43] (I'll get the logs now) [21:43] I asked for help with mint and when told that was not kosher I asked for help with ubuntu 11.04 [21:44] couple hours ago [21:44] one moment [21:46] frankcox757: I see why the confusion has occured [21:46] frankcox757: even when you where asking for help with ubuntu, you kept referencing your mint installation/issues [21:46] frankcox757: is your connection ok ? [21:47] I only did so to explain -not to ask again for help with mint [21:47] frankcox757: you where offered help with ubuntu, and then you explained that you had done that on your mint install [21:47] that's referncing the problem on your mint install, not your ubuntu install [21:48] I am having trouble with the ethernet cord-it is worn out it seems [21:48] I wa never offered help with ubuntu-I was told to go to miny-help === frankcox757_ is now known as frankcox757 [21:49] frankcox757_: you where, I'll show you [21:49] ok [21:49] you where given some commands to try and you said [21:49] I have done that a dozen times -after I do it says to use apt-get remove on some files and iced tea is still there.Mint has sun java preconfigured, could it be my machine won't run ubuntu correctly? [21:49] so again - you referenced your mint install/issues when someone was helping you, and after oCean had asked you to stop with mint support [21:50] you said you wanted ubuntu support, then referenced the mint issue again [21:50] hence why people believed you where still using mint/asking for mint support [21:51] can you see how it appears you are ignoring the request to stop asking mint help ? [21:51] frankcox757_: did you get my last messages with the quotes ? [21:52] please resend-in fact let me switch machines so I can stay connected [21:52] brb [21:52] ok [22:03] sorry for the inconvenience [22:03] not at all [22:03] frankcox757: you all stable/set now ? [22:04] yes [22:05] would you like to read my fdisk -l ? [22:05] errrr no ? [22:05] why would I want to see that [22:05] I take great offense at having my integrity attacked, paticularly for no reason and with no way to defend myself [22:06] frankcox757: one moment and I'll get the logs again and show you why the confusion happens [22:06] oCean called me a liar-he decided I did not have so many os's [22:06] frankcox757: one moment please and I'll show you why the confusion happens [22:06] this is the Internet. you're going to need some thicker skin. ;) [22:07] frankcox757: ok - just got the logs [22:07] I have thick skin -but I refuse to accept this new age lack of integrity , maybe I can not change it but I will never accept it [22:07] frankcox757: so to skip a little, you understand that you asked for mint help, where told it's not supported and asked not to ask again, yes/no ? [22:07] Ceanrankcox757: stop the mint discussions [22:07] YOU (frankcox757) have been booted from #ubuntu by oCean (don't lie) [22:08] frankcox757: Please calm down a little. there was confusion going on and ikonia is trying to explain that [22:10] frankcox757: did you understand what I've just said ? [22:10] I did not think using it in the context of explaining why i was now kosher and asking for help with natty constituted a grevious offense, what was that about thick skin you said/? [22:10] I type very slow. my hands a mess. [22:11] that's ok - don't worry about slow typing [22:11] I didd not ask for help with mint again [22:11] frankcox757: do you understand what I've said, you asked for mint help, and where told it wasn't supported and to not ask again, yes/no ? [22:11] I mentioned that there is no mint-help right now anyway [22:12] I did not ask again. [22:12] frankcox757: you where asked not to ask for mint help again - you understand that yes ? [22:12] show me where i asked for mint help again/ [22:12] frankcox757: can you read the questions I'm typing and actually answer them [22:12] frankcox757: "yes" or "no" are the answers ikonia is looking for. [22:13] frankcox757: you understand that you where told to not ask for mint help again, yes or no ? [22:13] yes-do you understand I did not do so/ [22:13] rankcox757I have done that a dozen times -after I do it says to use apt-get remove on some files and iced tea is still there.Mint has sun java preconfigured, could it be my machine won't run ubuntu correctly? [22:13] frankcox757: ok - so you where told not to ask for help on mint again. [22:14] someone then gave you some commands to run for your "ubuntu" problem [22:14] I only mentioned why , i did noit ask for help again [22:14] you then replied with the following [22:14] I have done that a dozen times -after I do it says to use apt-get remove on some files and iced tea is still there.Mint has sun java preconfigured, could it be my machine won't run ubuntu correctly? [22:14] now you are questioning my integrity [22:14] frankcox757: you referenced your mint issues/PC again, after being told not to ask for mint help again [22:14] oh lord [22:14] put your integrity to the side please [22:14] *facepalm* [22:14] 'ubuntu" , ? [22:14] he's *pasting logs* [22:15] no, that is all a man is or has-you take nothing to the grade but your word and mine is gold [22:15] frankcox757: those are the hcannel logs [22:15] frankcox757: I'm trying to show you where the confusion happened and why [22:15] frankcox757: protip: when told not to ask for support with Mint, it's a really good idea to never type the letters "m-i-n-t" inot the channel ever again. [22:16] *into [22:16] frankcox757: after you where told not to ask for mint help again, someone gave you commands to help you with ubuntu, you then referenced your mint problem again [22:16] I agree there was confusion, but unless you can see into my heart you have to accept my intent [22:16] frankcox757: do you see why it is confusing to the operator ? [22:16] I don't have to accept anything [22:16] I was not the one confused [22:16] frankcox757: clearly you had confusion about "stop asking for mint help" [22:17] that's not really helpful to him [22:17] frankcox757: from the operator who banned you, he asked you to stop asking about mint, and you responded to questions referencing your mint install [22:19] frankcox757: can you see/understand why you where kicked from the channel now ? [22:19] (this is another "yes/no") [22:25] frankcox757: you there ? [22:29] I was kicked for no reason . people who call people liars without cause lack any personal integrity whatsoever so there is no defense for me. You have the button and if you want to ban me go ahead but I do not compromise my integrity , ever , even at the choice of death. That seems old fashioned to you but I pity anyone who would ever compromise, that is prostitution and I am no whore. [22:29] You will not get me to lie and say that i was treated fairly by threatening me with banishment. I am not a person you can ever understand. [22:29] do what you will, we can just forget it happened or you can ban me. [22:29] But to compromise my honor for a silly thing like getting help with a free operating system? I see no hope for America. We are in decline because the onl;y way our sytem will work is if people are honest enough to govern themselves and it seems that honor no longer exists with the masses. [22:30] ok - well done for not listening to a word that was typed [22:30] I'm done now [22:30] come back when you actually want to listen to what's being typed to you [22:30] we can discuss it then [22:30] lol @ this having to do with "America" [22:30] exactly [22:30] it's just nonsense [22:31] frankcox757: come back when you can discuss something with reason without your stupid rants and pointless comments [22:31] we'll be happy to look at resolving it then [22:31] discuss/what ?you choose what to listen to ? That is nonsense friend. [22:31] frankcox757: good bye [22:31] i only see 2 choices -ban me or forget it [22:32] ok - you're banned [22:32] hope you feel superior [22:32] not at all [22:34] frankcox757: you should leave this channel now, please. come back later if you want to appeal the ban again. [22:34] !appeals > frankcox757 [22:34] frankcox757, please see my private message [22:34] then why try and force me to abondon my honor-to prove it does not exist to justify yourself/ [22:34] You insult me by even imaging I would do so . we may as well be [22:34] sent you a link from the bot just in case you need it [22:35] at least it wasn't spelled "AmeriKKKa" :/ [22:43] heh [22:51] p57976C8E.dip.t-dialin.net/87.151.108.142 [22:51] LARS? [23:03] m4v called the ops in #ubuntu (salva is insulting in spanish) [23:05] Bearly. [23:06] bearly? [23:07] LjL: barely* [23:07] ah [23:08] Now he crossed the line. [23:08] Though the second part was true.
