[11:52] <Pricey> Howdy smartboyhw :)
[11:52] <smartboyhw> ...
[11:53] <smartboyhw> Er, guys, how to apply for a Ubuntu channel?
[11:53] <smartboyhw> #ubuntu-gnome in this case
[11:54] <Pricey> smartboyhw: The channel is there and can be used... I don't see much desire for it though. (There's just you in there)
[11:55] <smartboyhw> The problem is I can't be op
[11:55] <Pricey> I imagine the developers working on those packages already communicate elsewhere..
[11:56] <jussi> de ja vu?
[11:57] <smartboyhw> What is de ja vu?
[11:57] <jussi> (17:18 finnish time on monday...)
[11:57] <smartboyhw> ?
[11:57] <jussi> smartboyhw: its a break in the matrix...
[11:57] <smartboyhw> OK
[11:57] <smartboyhw> So could someone help me then?
[11:58] <Pici> Why do you need the channel?
[11:58] <smartboyhw> Well, jbicha is working on the Ubuntu GNOME remix, and I'm helping too
[11:58] <jussi> He was here the other day about this,...
[11:59] <Pici> oh?
[11:59] <smartboyhw> Oh!
[11:59] <smartboyhw> Then...
[11:59] <jussi> [17:18:07] <jbicha> how do I start a new #ubuntu channel for the Ubuntu GNOME remix?
[11:59] <jussi> [17:22:58] <DJones> jbicha: The guidelines for creating new Ubuntu channels are listed here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/CreatingChannels
[12:00] <smartboyhw> But it is registered to freenode-staff
[12:00] <smartboyhw> So I think jbicha is having problems registering it
[12:00] <smartboyhw> Pricey, would you please help?
[12:01] <DJones> smartboyhw: Because the channel is in the #ubuntu* namespace, you would need to speak with the IRCC council as a starting point
[12:02] <Pricey> smartboyhw: If an Ubuntu Group Contact requests the channel, I can transfer ownership.
[12:02] <smartboyhw> So can any GC help me please???
[12:03] <Pricey> smartboyhw: be patient and hopefully one will get back to you. (They've seen your request)
[12:03] <smartboyhw> Sure. let's wait
[12:37] <smartboyhw> Er, any GC here?  Just a ping, don't worry:)
[12:37] <Pici> smartboyhw: I've contacted jbicha to see if he still wants the channel.
[12:37] <smartboyhw> OK
[12:37] <jussi> smartboyhw: just relax, I guarantee they have seen it, and ar probably talking abotu it... D:
[12:37] <smartboyhw> ;D
[12:39] <smartboyhw> Thanks Pici and jussi for your help:)
[12:52] <smartboyhw> jbicha: YAY
[13:30] <TheLordOfTime> !ubuntu-gnome
[13:30] <TheLordOfTime> oops
[13:31] <smartboyhw> TheLordOfTime: I just want to apply
[13:31] <TheLordOfTime> smartboyhw:  see #ubuntuforums
[13:59] <TLoT> okay, my irc client is screwing up
[13:59] <TLoT> ignore my last few edit suggestions
[13:59] <TLoT> seriously...?
[13:59] <TLoT> okay hold on
[13:59] <TLoT> something's wonky
[14:00] <TLoT> let me try that again...
[14:00] <TLoT> geez...
[14:00] <TLoT> i had to basically throw a raw IRC message to get that to send right
[14:00]  * TLoT debugs xchat
[14:01] <TLoT> how do i see the raw of a factoid?
[15:25] <tsimpson> TheLordOfTime: !+ http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins#Getting_raw_factoids
[15:25] <TheLordOfTime> ah
[15:36] <TheLordOfTime> tsimpson:  thanks, forgot the symbol to find it :p
[15:38] <Pricey> !gnome
[15:39] <TheLordOfTime> tsimpson:  does that work with the ubots as well, not just Ubottu?
[15:40] <tsimpson> it should work with any of the official bots that serve factoids (short answer "yes")
[15:40] <TheLordOfTime> (long answer "in theory"?)
[15:41] <tsimpson> well I can say it does work with ubottu, ubot5, lubotu1, lubotu2, and lubotu3
[17:32] <bobweaver> Hello there is some strang things going on
[17:32] <bobweaver> safinaskar,  will you tell them what you just seen
[17:32] <bobweaver> or what you just told me
[17:33] <safinaskar> "Received unknown CTCP-1MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE- request by bobweaver!~bobweaver@ubuntu/member/bobweaver"
[17:33] <bobweaver> what is that all about ?
[17:33] <safinaskar> bobweaver: okey, okey. you didn't send my any cookie. so, this is just bug somewhere
[17:33] <safinaskar> bobweaver: so, all is ok. disregard all.
[17:33] <bobweaver> safinaskar,  I can tell you that I have not /msg you
[17:33] <bobweaver> but I want to get to the bottom of this
[17:34] <bobweaver> can anyone weigh in on this plz
[17:36] <IdleOne> bobweaver: possibly your irc client is running some script that is auto sending ctcp request, but if no one else has brought this to your attention it is unlikely.
[17:36] <bobweaver> IdleOne,  thanks
[17:36] <bobweaver> it is weired because I reported that bug today
[17:36] <IdleOne> what bug?
[17:36] <bobweaver> that has to do with .goutput $HOME folder crap
[17:37] <bobweaver> let me find it for you
[17:37] <Sidewinder1> A lot of folks in #freenode are complaining/mentioning 'frigg' sending CCTP version requests; I wonder if this is related?
[17:37] <bobweaver> !bug 984785
[17:37] <Fuchs> Sidewinder1: it's not
[17:38] <bobweaver> that is the same output as  what he is getting
[17:38] <Fuchs> Sidewinder1: frigg is our service bot that does 1 up to 2 ctcp version requests on connect
[17:38] <Sidewinder1> Fuchs, OK, thanks.
[17:38] <Fuchs> Sidewinder1: it doesn't affect (hopefully) what clients send as ctcp requests (else that client should be burnt)
[17:38] <Sidewinder1> I was just wondering and you've corrected my mistake; thanx. :-)
[17:38] <bobweaver> meaning that under my HOME folder there is files in inside the files there are the txt that says the same thing that safinaskar  was saying that he recived
[17:39] <Fuchs> Sidewinder1: you're welcome :)
[17:39] <bobweaver> like if I do    cat ~/.goutputstream-SPDAJW
[17:40] <bobweaver> I get this joseph@joseph:~$ cat .goutputstream-SPDAJW
[17:40] <bobweaver> that is the same thing that safinaskar  is saying that he is reciving
[17:40] <bobweaver> then when I just paste that I see this in my client
[17:40] <bobweaver> * #ubuntu-irc :Cannot send to channel
[17:42] <bobweaver> am I being used as a bot do you all think ?
[17:42] <bobweaver> like a bouncer bot ?
[17:42] <bobweaver> I am new to all that
[17:42] <IdleOne> what irc client are you using and have you recently installed and scripts/plugins for it?
[17:42] <Fuchs> bobweaver: I just tuned in, so I didn't get the whole backlog. What client are you using?
[17:42] <bobweaver> Not that I know of
[17:42] <bobweaver> it is xchat
[17:43] <Fuchs> you installed it via the ubuntu package management, I assume?
[17:43] <bobweaver> yes
[17:43] <bobweaver> only thing I have as far as I know is autologin
[17:43] <bobweaver>  /msg nickserv identify <my pass>
[17:44] <bobweaver> that is the only thing that I think that I am running on start up
[17:44] <Fuchs> you shouldn't do that
[17:44] <Fuchs> see http://freenode.net/sasl/
[17:44] <Fuchs> for a way better method
[17:45] <Fuchs> can you put that file you have there in a pastebin?  (maybe check whether it contains any private information first)
[17:45] <bobweaver> which file ?
[17:45] <bobweaver> sorry
[17:45] <Fuchs> .goutputstream-SPDAJW << that thing
[17:46] <bobweaver> the .goutput-* one ?
[17:46] <Fuchs> yes
[17:46] <bobweaver> yeah there is like 20 of them
[17:46] <bobweaver> under my home folder hidden
[17:46] <bobweaver> but I will def do that brb
[17:47] <bobweaver> Fuchs,  this is what I get http://paste.ubuntu.com/1186219/
[17:47] <bobweaver> I did not alter it at all
[17:48] <Fuchs> that looks like a XAuthority magic cookie
[17:48] <Fuchs> which itself is fine and something you need, but that filename is a tad bit odd
[17:48] <Fuchs> how do you launch xchat?
[17:49] <bobweaver> from unity
[17:49] <bobweaver> here is all the files that are under my home dir
[17:49] <bobweaver> ls -al | grep .gout
[17:49] <bobweaver> oops
[17:49] <Fuchs> (don't post that in here, just in advance)
[17:49] <bobweaver> cool
[17:49] <bobweaver> pastebinit ?
[17:50] <bobweaver> it is just a list of the .goutput files
[17:51] <bobweaver> I just dont want people to think that I am trying to send them "Magic-cookies"  which I though like you said are for xorg
[17:51] <Fuchs> hrm, no
[17:52] <Fuchs> it appears that these things are unrelated to xchat, and not really an IRC issue, so that is more something for #ubuntu
[17:52] <Fuchs> on the other hand, your Xchat sending out CTCP requests, is a tad bit strange. But if it only happened once so far, I would not care too much
[17:52] <bobweaver> but why is dude getting messages from me ?
 "Received unknown CTCP-1MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE- request by bobweaver!~bobweaver@ubuntu/member/bobweaver"
[17:53] <bobweaver> he got that message a couple of times from me
[17:53] <Fuchs> yes, that is a tad bit strange. Have you received similar reports?
[17:53] <bobweaver> an I dont even know that dude
[17:53] <safinaskar> bobweaver: no, no. just one time
[17:53] <bobweaver> safinaskar,  thanks
[17:53] <bobweaver> sorry about that
[17:54] <Fuchs> bobweaver: then I wouldn't worry too much about it,
[17:54] <bobweaver> safinaskar,  1st I would like to say thanks for showing up here . 2) thanks for telling me that this is going on
[17:54] <bobweaver> Fuchs,  ok
[17:54] <Fuchs> I assume you tried to paste the content of that file, and due to some characters in there it somehow ended up as a ctcp
[17:54] <bobweaver> yes
[17:54] <bobweaver> I did
[17:54] <Fuchs> then probably this
[17:54] <bobweaver> on #ubuntu today
[17:54] <Fuchs> it contains a lot of non-printable / control characters
[17:55] <safinaskar> bobweaver: you are welcome
[17:55] <Fuchs> so maybe your xchat got a tad bit confused
[17:55] <Fuchs> maybe just use a pastebin for now to show it to others
[17:55] <bobweaver> Fuchs,  that makes some sense
[17:55] <bobweaver> Thanks I will consider this solved for now but if I have anymore issues I will come here asap
[17:56] <Fuchs> okay
[17:56] <bobweaver> Fuchs,  IdleOne  safinaskar  I can not thanks you enough
[17:56] <bobweaver> I will now leave the channel to keep it openm
[17:56] <bobweaver> open *
