| h00k | acidrain has constantly been skirting !language, !ot, etc | 00:13 |
|---|---|---|
| rww | h00k: so kick him out | 00:29 |
| h00k | rww: what? Oh, he left. | 00:30 |
| bazhang | I'm using debian, but *this happens in Ubuntu, too!* so halp! | 01:39 |
| bazhang | <zulax> i disabled dhcp while installing | 01:49 |
| bazhang | crosspost from -server | 01:50 |
| funkyHat | ugh | 01:52 |
| bazhang | people dont even try to pretend anymore | 02:37 |
| bazhang | just say "I'm suddenly using your_distro" | 02:37 |
| bazhang | how long has empathy been default? thought it was a while now | 03:37 |
| rww | bazhang: since 9.10 | 03:38 |
| bazhang | augh | 03:38 |
| bazhang | theadmin handing out advice without actually knowing what is or is not in Ubuntu | 03:38 |
| bazhang | same with directly editing grub.cfg | 03:39 |
| bazhang | "it works in ARCH!" | 03:39 |
| Flannel | have a talk with him, shape up or ship out, etc. | 03:40 |
| Flannel | bad information is worse than no information. | 03:40 |
| bazhang | I've done so in the past, asked him to read the factoids for grub2 and others, but he has responded with: Like I care! and the like. | 03:41 |
| rww | so remove him | 03:41 |
| PerfieM | Kay, kids, lets git down to bsns | 03:43 |
| rww | Alrighty. You're now not banned in #ubuntu-offtopic; I expect you to follow our !guidelines if you choose to rejoin there. I'll go check on #ubuntu now. | 03:44 |
| PerfieM | If I dont follow guidelines, what happens? | 03:46 |
| rww | You get banned again | 03:46 |
| PerfieM | Oh | 03:46 |
| PerfieM | Thats sad | 03:46 |
| Flannel | PerfieM: It is. Which is why we'd prefer it if you followed the guidelines. | 03:47 |
| rww | I made the #ubuntu-offtopic banlist all nice and short. Making it long again would make me unhappy. | 03:47 |
| rww | anyways, the bantracker is (as usual) failing miserably at having usable documentation | 03:47 |
| rww | PerfieM: If I unban you from #ubuntu, will you stick to Ubuntu technical support topics and follow our guidelines? | 03:48 |
| PerfieM | rww: I make no promises, so I suggest you dont do that | 03:48 |
| rww | PerfieM: If you won't commit to that, then your ban will not be removed from there at this time. | 03:48 |
| PerfieM | Honesty is the best policy, amirite? | 03:48 |
| PerfieM | rww: no big D | 03:49 |
| Flannel | PerfieM: In the interest of being honest: we tend to view #ubuntu-offtopic as more of a privledge than #ubuntu. So if you're not willing to make the effort to behave in #ubuntu, you should definately be on your best behavior in -offtopic. | 03:50 |
| PerfieM | Flannel: silly goose! I'm always on my best behavior! | 03:50 |
| rww | that's a bit depressing | 03:52 |
| PerfieM | ahahahahahahah | 03:52 |
| rww | Anyways, if there isn't anything else we can help you with, please have a safe and productive day | 03:52 |
| PerfieM | oh, rww, it will certainly be productive ;) | 03:52 |
| ubottu | In ubottu, theadmin said: !browser is Browsers available for Ubuntu: Firefox (GTK, Gecko engine), Konqueror (KDE/Qt, KHTML engine), Epiphany (GTK, Geckomengine), Dillo (GTK), w3m(terminal-based), Links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !man page), edbrowse (command-line), Opera (Qt/GTK, proprietary) | 04:33 |
| rww | the change there is s%Opera (Qt%Opera (Qt/GTK%. I recommend ignoring it. | 04:36 |
| rww | although I'm pondering removing some of the toolkit mentions from that factoid entirely | 04:38 |
| rww | !browsers | 04:45 |
| ubottu | Browsers in Ubuntu's repositories: Firefox (XUL, Gecko), Chromium (Webkit), Konqueror (Qt, KHTML), Epiphany (GTK+, Webkit), Arora (Qt, Webkit), Midori (GTK+, Webkit), w3m (terminal-based), links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !manpage), edbrowse (command-line) | 04:45 |
| rww | there, much more factually correct. | 04:46 |
| rww | !browsers =~ s/command-line/terminal-based/ | 04:47 |
| ubottu | I'll remember that rww | 04:47 |
| ubottu | FloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (bleahhh appears to be abusive and has been muted, will need to be UNMUTED MANUALLY) | 09:23 |

| XamDM | someone has band me in #ubuntu, i don't konw why, how can this be fixt ??? | 11:43 |
| Tm_T | Hi Lars, you're sure you don't know why? | 11:44 |
| XamDM | Tm_T, yes i am sure, i hadn't postet anything this morning | 11:45 |
| IdleOne | lars bans are not removed daily, | 11:45 |
| XamDM | IdleOne, maybe, but why have i been band ??, woh hs done it ?? | 11:46 |
| elky | lars, what makes you think this is not to do with your previous behaviour? | 11:47 |
| IdleOne | I banned you because you were ban evading. The reason for your multiple bans over the past few weeks are basically because you are unable to follow channel rules | 11:47 |
| XamDM | ban evading ?? | 11:47 |
| IdleOne | you have been given the link for appeals, feel free to email the ircc and discuss it with them. The ban will not be removed | 11:48 |
| XamDM | IdleOne, this has been the first time beeing band | 11:48 |
| elky | Hmm, this kind of dishonesty isn't going to help any appeals. | 11:48 |
| IdleOne | !appeals > XamDM | 11:48 |
| ubottu | XamDM, please see my private message | 11:48 |
| IdleOne | Please part the channel now. Have a good day. | 11:49 |
| XamDM | IdleOne, i absolutly don't understand this, i am in this irc for years i never did something wrong and so i don't understand whats going on here | 11:50 |
| IdleOne | lars, please don't lie to us. we are a bit crazy but not a single one of us in this channel is stupid. | 11:51 |
| XamDM | i don't lie, so tell me what i have done ?? | 11:51 |
| IdleOne | is your name Lars? | 11:52 |
| XamDM | i loked in this morning a few times without typing because of problems with xchat | 11:52 |
| XamDM | IdleOne, yes it is | 11:52 |
| elky | is your last initial T? | 11:52 |
| IdleOne | then you will remain banned | 11:52 |
| XamDM | my name is Lars Hunaeus | 11:52 |
| XamDM | no T | 11:52 |
| XamDM | maybe you catched the wrong one ore somebody stole my nick ?? | 11:53 |
| XamDM | but the nick is registered | 11:53 |
| XamDM | i use this nick since Ubuntu 8.04, so i don't beleave that somebody used it, i really don't understand whats going on here | 11:56 |
| IdleOne | XamDM: Please hold a moment | 11:57 |
| elky | well, if you are lars hunaeus, you'd be able to update your xing profile. | 11:57 |
| XamDM | of course i am | 11:57 |
| Pici | We've had a lot of issues from a user with the same name from a similar IP, so excuse our oddness. | 11:58 |
| * Pici leaves the rest up to the other ops | 11:58 | |
| elky | XamDM, the thing is we have a lars who has the same isp who causes lots of problems. If you can help us make sure we wouldn't be exempting the wrong lars, we can help you | 11:58 |
| XamDM | what shell i do ?? | 11:58 |
| elky | http://www.xing.com/profile/Lars_Hunaeus is you? | 11:59 |
| XamDM | Yes | 12:00 |
| IdleOne | XamDM: I apologize for calling you a liar. Like the other ops said we have had many issues with a different user from same ISP. | 12:00 |
| XamDM | IdleOne, no problem if we can fix this, by the way lars is a often used name in germany and t-online our biggest isp .... | 12:01 |
| XamDM | and what is ban evading ?? | 12:01 |
| IdleOne | circumventing a ban by changing your host in one way or another | 12:02 |
| XamDM | IdleOne, so he often changes his IP ??, if so you will notice that mine just changes once every 24h | 12:04 |
| elky | XamDM, I've just signed up to xing, I'm going to PM your my profile url and you can message me with it? Then we will know :) | 12:05 |
| XamDM | ok | 12:05 |
| elky | XamDM, thanks so much for working with us there. | 12:07 |
| elky | IdleOne, feel free to give him an exempt :) | 12:07 |
| IdleOne | XamDM: Please try to join #ubuntu now | 12:08 |
| elky | sorry for all the confusion. it's never easy dealing with silly kids who have too much time on their hands :) | 12:08 |
| IdleOne | XamDM: thank you for your understanding. | 12:08 |
| XamDM | thank you, log in worked so far | 12:08 |
| XamDM | cu | 12:10 |
| IdleOne | have a good day. | 12:10 |
| bazhang | and he quit | 12:12 |
| IdleOne | :/ | 12:12 |
| elky | no, lost connection it looks like | 12:12 |
| bazhang | is using unetbootin to get windows 7 on a usb stick an #ubuntu issue? | 12:35 |
| IdleOne | no | 12:35 |
| elky | ... you can't boot windows from usb. | 12:47 |
| elky | it disconnects all usb devices at the "configuring settings" screen to configure them. | 12:47 |
| elky | i mean, unless they *completely* rewrote it for 7... | 12:49 |
| elky | it's absolutely not possible for xp, not sure about beyond that. | 12:49 |
| gord | i'v booted the windows 7 installer from a usb one late and annoying night when windows died on me, but i'm not sure about booting a live image kind of thing | 13:01 |
| gord | this was through a hacky way though too, community effort | 13:01 |
| bazhang | <GoodAD> all user use ubuntu are stuxnet activated in computer. | 13:04 |
| bazhang | ban evading unless rww removed it | 13:05 |
| IdleOne | looks like it was removed | 13:05 |
| bazhang | well trolling anyway,so back | 13:06 |
| bazhang | augh | 13:08 |
| bazhang | eir PM'd me I need to get up to speed on how to respond to the pm | 13:09 |
| bazhang | * [g0t] (~doe@cpe-94-253-198-162.zg2.cable.xnet.hr): johny is the googlebot now used to be g0th | 13:33 |
| ikonia | bazhang: is g0th in #kubuntu the google bot guy ? | 14:15 |
| bazhang | ikonia, was, now it's g0t | 14:15 |
| ikonia | so g0th in #kubuntu isn't g0t | 14:16 |
| bazhang | suspiciously close nick though, and no response other than the !google | 14:16 |
| ikonia | are they on the same network ? I can't see a /last on g0t | 14:17 |
| ikonia | ok, totally different | 14:18 |
| bazhang | same exact results / syntax though | 14:18 |
| ikonia | what do you mean | 14:18 |
| ikonia | g0t is on g0t [~doe@cpe-94-253-198-162.zg2.cable.xnet.hr | 14:19 |
| ikonia | with a totally different ident | 14:19 |
| ikonia | g0th [~jonas@217-162-231-125.dynamic.hispeed.ch] | 14:19 |
| ikonia | looks totally different (beyond the first few letters of the nick) | 14:19 |
| ikonia | g0t responds in #freenode too, so it's not just setup for #ubuntu | 14:20 |
| tsimpson | g0t is not g0th, or vice-versa | 14:22 |
| ikonia | agreed | 14:22 |
| ikonia | also responds in pm, so it looks generic, although I've never seen the owner active | 14:23 |
| bazhang | heh | 15:17 |
| jpds | Troll detected. | 15:18 |
| bazhang | aww | 15:18 |
| bazhang | he's cycling his questions now | 15:23 |
| * Pici palms | 15:30 | |
| jpds | Pici: Nothing wrong with a Palm Pre. | 15:31 |
| jpds | Except maybe the battery life. | 15:32 |
| bazhang | oof | 15:32 |
| Pici | And that LjL uses one | 15:32 |
| ikonia | how about a palm pilot ? | 15:32 |

| jpds | I always wondered what '/exec -o sl' would do. | 15:35 |
| Pici | me too. | 15:36 |
| * jpds tests. | 15:37 | |
| popey | 16:37:34 <@popey> Error opening terminal: tty. | 15:37 |
| popey | ☹ | 15:37 |
| jpds | Damn it. | 15:38 |
| * popey damns it | 15:38 | |
| Myrtti | you are funny | 15:38 |
| bazhang | vidalia seems to be spreading FUD | 15:39 |
| jpds | Myrtti: Occupational hazard of being British. | 15:45 |
| ikonia | GYM TIME :) | 15:58 |

| rww | topyli: erm. | 19:05 |
| rww | topyli: that ban mask is ever so slightly too wide. | 19:05 |
| charlie-tca | effective though | 19:05 |
| rww | Feel free to leave it, it'll make our lives easier. | 19:06 |
| topyli | heh | 19:06 |
| tsimpson | well, +i would have confused ubottu less | 19:06 |
| topyli | i wonder how that happened | 19:06 |
| rww | we do enjoy confusing ubottu around here | 19:06 |
| rww | fail | 19:07 |
| tsimpson | try again | 19:07 |

| topyli | maybe i should go to bed | 19:07 |
| rww | that may be useful :P | 19:07 |

| bazhang | support for the other distros? what about just linking what *is* supported | 21:07 |
| bazhang | afaict , everything but MINT has theirs here on freenode | 21:08 |
