[03:06] really bad lag [03:06] Half hour, it seems. [03:06] IdleOne: or he's page-upped and doesn't know it. [03:06] that is possible [03:07] been there and done that [04:07] Jeruvy called the ops in #ubuntu (rigin) [04:07] soreau called the ops in #ubuntu (Rigin) [04:09] Hey is anyone here authorized to remove bans in #ubuntu+1 [04:10] on you? [04:10] em: done [04:10] Yes why would that matter? [04:10] connection all fixed now? [04:10] emma: you got banned *again*? [04:10] em: actually that was a silly thing of me to ask [04:11] To the best of my knowledge. I think there was a kid in Iraq DDoSing me. He got klined. [04:11] but the forward has been removed [04:11] Okay great thanks. [04:11] welcome [04:12] same thing in #ubuntu-uk and #ubuntu if you can lift those [04:15] I don't see one for you in #ubuntu [04:15] oh okay good. [04:16] as for #ubuntu-uk you need to ask in #ubuntu-irc [04:16] or message on of the ops [04:16] Okay sure. :) [04:19] em: please try joining #ubuntu now [04:20] okay sure [04:20] Thanks for all the help folks.

[05:16] where 'is' grubcfg. [05:17] what [05:17] 00:15:38 In ubottu, mrdeb said: where is grubcfg [05:17] yes, where is it [05:17] ask without the ! [05:17] Its a bot, not a person, ask a user in #ubuntu [05:17] bazhang: he was in pm [05:17] in #ubuntu , and I sent you the factoid to read [05:17] i did ask and then they sent me t o obutto [05:18] ok [05:19] mrdeb: ubottu is a program that provides information, when you see it speaking to you it means you should read and most likely follow the links it provides [05:20] yes like the link to this room [05:21] correct but had you read what the bot said is that it forwarded your edit request [05:21] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 <---- this link mrdeb [05:24] hmm [10:42] what a surprise MadHaTTer666 [10:42] been a problem many times [15:33] Hm, !backtrack just seems to end with listing Ultimate Edition [15:33] I think that is how the factoid is. [15:33] ultimate is now Super OS I though [15:33] !backtrack [15:33] There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux), Ultimate Edition [15:33] +t [15:36] on the factoids page it has at the end: Ultimate Edition $hr$cut off...

[15:45] Pici, a bit earlier, but many more such [15:46] 10:41:24 >>>> ubuntuuser is now known as PythonSnake [16:38] is making a windows usb stick (with ubuntu) on topic? seen several requests for same of late [16:45] bazhang: I'd say no as the technical issues are more to do with Windows than with Ubuntu, and ##windows should have people knowlageable enough about *NIX to help with that side of things. [16:46] Jordan_U, yep. wonder how many of these folks get their iso from technet as well [16:51] iirc-dev [17:37] ohai! [17:37] one more word about frankcox757 [17:38] as soon as he was told that support for mint was in #linuxmint-help on _irc.spotchat.org_ he did join #linuxmint-help [17:38] only on freenode [17:38] so no one was there, then he came back in #u [17:47] oh, and ikonia: p57976C8E.dip.t-dialin.net/87.151.108.142 is definitely lars [18:46] !nomodeset [18:46] nomodeset is 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. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [18:47] ^Apparently I had to use !nomodeset is A common... [18:48] What's the proper way to edit this? [18:49] oCean: !no nomodeset is .... [18:49] but it looks fine as it is [18:50] nope [18:50] hehe ok [18:50] it says blah is ... is blah [18:50] let me try [18:50] you might have to do it twice [18:50] !no nomodeset is 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. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [18:50] I'll remember that oCean [18:50] !nomodeset [18:50] 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. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [18:51] IdleOne: thanks! [18:51] sure thing [18:51] ah, ok I see where it looked funny [19:30] Hi. As I asked yesterday... got a ban on #ubuntu and I don't know why. [19:30] yest. I was told to try later, as the person who banned me was n/a [19:37] zub: The issue appears to be complicated and I am not in a position to make a decision on the ban removal. I suggest you return in a few (5 or so) hours when the op who set the ban should be active [19:37] complicated? [19:38] correct [19:38] also, may I know who is the person who gave me the ban? I coudl then discuss it directly with the person [19:38] ah, "correct", now I know what's going on :) [19:38] you do? [19:38] feel free to clue me in [19:38] blah, wrong statement [19:39] in fact it was supposed to mean "I'm annoyed as "correct" doesn't help a bit" [19:39] * zub is not native speaker [19:39] I am not annoyed. [19:39] well, I am, though it's not your falt, so /me calms down [19:39] it's just frustrating [19:40] so, to comply with local rules, I'm to leave and return in $NOW+5h? [19:40] $NOW+5 = 1:40am... so I will be asleep [19:41] IdleOne: (once again) may I know who set the ban/it there a way I can talk directly to him/her? [19:41] I understand the frustration and appreciate your understanding. At this point I don't have more information than to say come back in about 4-5hrs [19:41] ok, thanks [19:41] thank you. [20:05] wabi ban please ? [20:06] LjL: thanks [20:06] thank you [20:06] :) [20:32] mattmatteh: Can we help you with anything else? [20:39] Pici: i was just tabbing through the channels i was in and noticed that, probably not at the moment [21:05] wow..i got it now.. thankz to marinez :) [21:05] wabi: don't forget to verify your email address [21:06] just about to do it, marienz [21:07] done :) thankz again, marienz for helping out [21:07] wabi: if you have any more issues with it please inquire in #freenode. on the other hand, if you want to discuss your ban in #ubuntu, you can do it here. [21:14] wabi: please, leave if you have nothing to discuss here [21:15] wabi: also you can speak here, no need to keep sending me notices [22:58] * [perme] (~digger@cable-178-148-10-56.dynamic.sbb.rs): Break Into A Server! [22:58] seems to be advising how to zero a partition [22:58] uhm, it's *sort* of appropriate given the question was how to uninstall ubuntu... [22:58] risky for a brand new user, imo [23:49] alphapsi did not read a single link given [23:49] hope he/she has backups [23:51] Hi there. Any luck of discussing my "favourite" issue? Or am I too early? [23:53] (talking of my ban at #ubuntu) [23:57] @login [23:57] The operation succeeded. [23:57] zub: looking ... [23:58] mneptok: you possibly don't have context... soprry for not providing any [23:59] I first discussed it yesterday here, it was oCean I talked to [23:59] was told to ask later, as the person who banned me wasnt available [23:59] then I was here several hours ago and was told pretty much the same thing by IdleOne
