I was going to do these individually, but it will just turn into spam, and
on the most part this is a no-brainer.
I propose the removal of the following members of the sig, on the basis
they carry a vote currently..but may not be active, or interested in the
sig.
ausil, bit4man, deepsa, ivazquez, jkeating, jsmith, jsteffan, mkearey,
pfrields, wtogami, kanarip
I guess the simple thing is, if you agree with the removal, vote with
"+1", if you disagree with it all "-1", and if you disagree with one (or
more particular user's removal "-1 <username>"
Otherwise this thread could easily turn into 10 threads and get
unnecessarily messy.

Please briefly describe the interaction that caused you to file this
ticket:
I was asking for help on what was wrong with my Fedora 18, I had
issues with primary graphic adapters. I said I was thinking of giving up
and going back to Ubuntu. fenris02 became very hostile with me, muted me,
then continued to be harass me while I was muted. After 15 minutes, I
came back and told him I was sorry I offended him by "threatening" to
switch to Ubuntu, but he was very hostile and his harassment was
unwarranted by me. He continued to harass me.

F18, and I'm about to jump to ubuntu again"
[23:12] <StillBob> See ya!
[23:13] == mintos_out has changed nick to mintos
[23:13] <altermann> ubuntu is no better
[23:13] <tbwen> So, I'm having large amounts of trouble setting up F18. I
had to change my primary video adaptor from PCI-E to onboard in order for
anaconda to work. Installed it, went well. Reboot with BIOS back to
PCI-E, and I'm stuck at the log in page of F18, all user names grayed out,
and a staticy icon
[23:13] <altermann> tbwen: it's time you learned Gentoo
[23:13] <tbwen> I revert to onboard, and then I get stuck mouse on top
left, stuck at F18 load screen
[23:13] <tbwen> @altermann Gentoo? :\ why gentoo
[23:14] <altermann> cause it's more flexible
[23:14] <[R]> that's what she said
[23:14] <tbwen> I've spent so much time with fedora, I just want to make
fedora work now
[23:15] <altermann> it seems linux and catering more and more to windows
users nowadays
[23:15] <altermann> no more text installer
[23:15] <tbwen> Yeah, I couldn't find a way to get text installer which
was my original problem
[23:15] <tbwen> but then once I installed, I can't get into GNOME, and I
can't figure out how to boot into no GUI
[23:16] <_7Y> I cant get my driver compiled. what do I look for on the
site?

[23:17] <tbwen> @altermann plus, if I wanted to go that route, I could
have tried out arch linux

[23:18] <Magiobiwan> Can I upgrade F17 to F18 in place, or do I have to
reinstall?
[23:18] <tbwen> I'm about to wipe and put ubuntu -_-
[23:18] <[R]> Magiobiwan: use fedup
[23:18] <[R]> tbwen: you don't need to threaten us...
[23:19] <fenris02> tbwen, you boot into runlevel 3 / multiuser the same in
both. so best of luck to you
[23:19] <Magiobiwan> Apparently, command not found
[23:19] <fenris02> Magiobiwan, 'yum update; yum install fedup'
[23:19] <Magiobiwan> That might help
[23:20] <fenris02> you'll need to update to current f17+updates prior to
running fedup.
[23:20] <Magiobiwan> Yeah. Updating Fedora now.
[23:21] == Marc12 [~Marc(a)de2x.mullvad.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 252

[23:21] <tbwen> fenris02: what do you mean? That I need to boot into
runlevel3 / multiuser or that I am doing that now, and need to not
[23:21] <mosno> wat, fedora still has runlevels?
[23:22] * mosno thought systemd would have done away with those

[23:23] <StillBob> mosno: runlevel/target
[23:23] <mosno> ah, so they just kept the name
[23:23] <mosno> kk
[23:24] <fenris02> tbwen, i mean the process has not changed in 40+ years.
so dont let the door hit you on your way
[23:25] <tbwen> fenris02: what does that mean?
[23:25] <StillBob> tbwen: One of the dumbest things you can do is threaten
that you are going to run a different distro.
[23:25] <fenris02> tbwen, it means you have made a STUPID threat.
[23:25] <StillBob> tbwen: Because honestly, WE DON'T CARE
[23:25] <StillBob> tbwen: In fact, at this point I would personally prefer
if you did run Ubnutu
[23:26] <tbwen> no need to be hostile, I'm a new linux user and I am
trying to learn. Maybe you shouldn't be so elitist with your attitude. I
am genuinely trying to install linux.
[23:26] <tbwen> I didn't know that this was a place where another distro
of linux was a threat
[23:26] <StillBob> tbwen: It's obvious you are just a consumer, we don't
need consumers, we need contributors
[23:26] <fenris02> tbwen, you started the hostility. threats remember?

[23:26] <tbwen> Stop trolling and chill out.
[23:26] <altermann> tbwen: just install Fedora 17 if you're keen on
staying
[23:26] <fenris02> tbwen, to be perfectly clear, here is your own words
again -> <tbwen> I'm about to wipe and put ubuntu -_-
[23:27] <altermann> it works for me
[23:27] <fenris02> altermann, f17 has the exact same init process as f18.
[23:27] <tbwen> Yes, it's a sign of frustration that I've spent a week
installing F18 and not able to get it to work.
[23:27] <StillBob> "<tbwen> <--snip--> I'm about to jump to ubuntu again"
[23:27] <fenris02> tbwen, you've spent 15mins.

[23:27] <fenris02> tbwen, not weeks.
[23:27] <Magiobiwan> It took you a WEEK to install Fedora?
[23:27] <tbwen> I downloaded F18 last monday
[23:27] <Magiobiwan> Go back to Windows
[23:27] <altermann> fenris02: is that what his issue is?
[23:27] <fenris02> tbwen, and?
[23:27] <fenris02> altermann, yeah. he wants a non-gui bootup.
[23:27] <tbwen> I go to school, and I work an hour every day trying to get
it to work
[23:27] <hmaarrfk> .....................
[23:28] <fenris02> tbwen, waaah.
[23:28] <tbwen> What's your problem?
[23:28] <fenris02> tbwen, threats and crying are not going to help you.
man up.
[23:28] <tbwen> stop trolling
[23:28] <tbwen> please stop
[23:28] <altermann> fenris02: it wasn't easy to achieve but you can block
plymouth
[23:28] <mosno> StillBob, i appreciate the need for an active community,
but according to the FAQ, Fedora is suitable for "consumers"
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAQ#Who_is_Fedora_suitable_for.3F
[23:28] <altermann> i've done it on 17
[23:28] <[R]> lol
[23:28] <mosno> (perhaps the FAQ needs updating?)
[23:28] <StillBob> mosno: LOL
[23:28] <fenris02> tbwen, heh. from where i sit, you are the troller
here.
[23:28] * [R] plays the worlds smallest violin JUST for tbwen
[23:29] <mosno> StillBob, ?
[23:29] <fenris02> mosno, sure, works fine for most anyone that can point
their browser to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/ and read a little
[23:29] <tbwen> Maybe I will to go another distro. If fedora's community
is like this then I really don't want to stay with it
[23:29] <xanthaos> StillBob the truth is that Fedora does need some
consumers else the contributors start to lose reason to contribute save
their own wishes. But....
[23:29] <altermann> i was helped by somebody in this channel to block
plymouth
[23:29] <fenris02> tbwen, bye.
[23:29] <tbwen> I'm brand new to linux and I tried learning by myself, and
I needed some help
[23:29] <xanthaos> tbwen,
[23:29] <StillBob> mosno: Yeah, designers decided that they wanted to
figure out a "target market" and ended up with "everyone" because they did
not want to offend anyone.
[23:29] <mosno> fenris02, indeed
[23:29] <tbwen> And you're being hostile as hell
[23:29] <fenris02> tbwen, you're making threats. i've heard enough from
you.
[23:29] <xanthaos> These guys know their stuff, and being hasty won't get
you any better an answer
[23:29] <fenris02> tbwen, that's twice so far.
[23:30] <Magiobiwan> tbwen, in no way are you entitled to help here
[23:30] <xanthaos> I was once in the same shoes, and in some areas I still
am. However I've learned that these guys are here offering advice for a
reason...
[23:30] <StillBob> mosno: "liberals"
[23:30] <StillBob> ;)
[23:30] <xanthaos> The technology you're trying to install... They freakin
designed it
[23:31] <xanthaos> You want answers, they got em. All they ask is two
things: read the manuals/googles, and be respectful.
[23:31] <tbwen> Then this is why computer science is doomed in america.

[23:32] <[R]> haha
[23:32] <xanthaos> Well I gave my take on it, it is what it is. q me if ya
want, but that's as good as it'll get lol
[23:33] <altermann> tbwen you could also try openSuse
[23:33] <xanthaos> Or windows
[23:33] <Magiobiwan> Or a Mac
[23:34] <tbwen> Would you please stop. Stop harasssing me.
[23:34] == Cannot send to channel: #fedora
[23:34] <Magiobiwan> Since that'll probably be easy enough for you
[23:34] <altermann> omg not a mac
[23:34] <fenris02> or just chill out and *THINK* about what you are
saying. That's my preferred method actually. Stop making idle threats to
the very same people you are asking assistance of
[23:34] <tbwen> Stop harassing me. I mean it.

[23:35] == Cannot send to channel: #fedora
[23:35] <aristocles> mac os x is certainly "consumer" grade, though. :)

[23:36] <Magiobiwan> Anyways, I use LXDE on my VPSes
[23:36] <fenris02> altermann, oh, that's unfortunate. the maintainer for
mate-desktop hangs out here often. dont see him at the moment though
[23:37] <mosno> altermann, best linux desktop ever... just doesn't have
support from newer popular desktop apps
[23:37] <fenris02> Magiobiwan, for a vps, why bother installing a desktop
at all?
[23:37] <altermann> fenris02: i will give Mate until F20 to mature
[23:37] * fenris02 lulz
[23:37] <Magiobiwan> Uh, so I can do speedtest.net on it
[23:37] <Magiobiwan> And show off my awesome bandwidths
[23:37] <mosno> altermann, centos that is

[23:37] <mosno> altermann, i loved my centos install so much...
[23:38] <altermann> i will be replacing gentoo at work with centos
[23:38] <altermann> the guy who i took the job from is a big gentoo fan
[23:38] <altermann> i like it too, i just don't like portage that much
[23:38] <mosno> altermann, there's always paludis
[23:39] <altermann> anything but ubuntu, thanks

[23:40] <altermann> their integration of LXDE is marvelous

$whatever_distro the "fastest distro around" with a few button clicks.
[23:40] <Magiobiwan> At my High School, in the Tech Department, I'm like,
the ONLY Student tech who knows what a Linux is
[23:40] <altermann> fenris02: i guess
[23:40] <tbwen> Look, you guys are being unreasonable jerks. I used
Ubuntu to learn linux, and I felt like chaning distros to fedora. I've
spent a week of my freetime trying to insteall F18, finally got it to
work, and then got stuck with a problem that I can't even pinpoint out.
I'm sorry if I offended your mighty pedestal.
[23:40] == Cannot send to channel: #fedora
[23:40] == stefw [~stefw(a)thewalter.net] has joined #fedora
[23:41] <xanthaos> I'm thinking the same way. Thinking about going centos

[23:41] * fenris02 wonders if anyone has support questions that pertain to
here and have been simply missed over?
[23:41] <Magiobiwan> CentOS is good for servers, not so much for end user
systems.
[23:41] <altermann> lol
[23:41] <Magiobiwan> Good idea to ask, fenris02
[23:41] <xanthaos> Actually fenris02 I asked the same question about four
times earlier with no answer
[23:42] <fenris02> Magiobiwan, *shrugs* i'm waiting here until my next

[23:42] == mohits [~sethimo@unaffiliated/mohits] has joined #fedora
[23:42] <xanthaos> Unless you want to give it a roll, it's about failures
on umount
[23:42] <fenris02> xanthaos, "device busy" errors ?
[23:43] <xanthaos> Yes, and I've done some testing and found some
patterns. Here they are:
[23:43] <xanthaos> I use mount.cifs to mount a samba share from another
fedora system. If I do nothing with it, umount works normally.
[23:44] <xanthaos> However, if I open that share in dolphin or any other
file browser, then it takes more than a half hour before umount will work
and not produce the 'device busy' error
[23:44] <fenris02> xanthaos, do you use gnome / nautilus ?
[23:45] <xanthaos> no
[23:45] <xanthaos> Just dolphin, krusader, and another one that I've never
seen before 17 in kde
[23:45] <xanthaos> not nautilus

[23:45] <fenris02> xanthaos, for most of those, left-click on some device
not attached to the cifs mount. right-click on the cifs-mount and select
umount. alternatively close all your filer windows and run umount from
the command line. use lsof to see who holds the lock on the mountpoint ..
also from cli

[23:48] <fenris02> f3xy, sort of you can .. but really - what is your
actual end goal ?
[23:48] <f3xy> I'm trying to setup perf
[23:48] <xanthaos> the wierd thing is that I can try the umount and it
will tell me busy. I can walk away for a half hour or so, rerun the
command, and it works.
[23:48] <fenris02> f3xy, you dont need to uncompress for that..
[23:48] <xanthaos> no changes on my part.
[23:48] <f3xy> I'm doing a perf test
[23:48] <fenris02> xanthaos, lsof / lslk / fuser should tell you
[23:48] <xanthaos> Why is it taking so long for dolphin or other to
release the device?
[23:48] <xanthaos> I tried lsof
[23:48] <f3xy> 1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: FAILED!
[23:49] <tbwen> Look, you guys are being unreasonable jerks. I used
Ubuntu to learn linux, and I felt like changing distros to fedora. I've
spent a week of my freetime trying to insteall F18, finally got it to
work, and then got stuck with a problem that I can't even pinpoint out.
I'm sorry if I "threatened" you by switching a more learner friendly
distro, but you should not not kept harassing me or silencing me.
[23:49] <mosno> speaking of nautilus... is there a way like in windows
where the file manager prompts to elevate privileges for operations that
need it? or is it being worked on? i seem to recall a while back thinking
that one of the *Kits might be able to do it
[23:49] <[R]> ROFL
[23:49] <xanthaos> I tried it with a half dozen grep options and found
nothing of interest
[23:49] <fenris02> tbwen, you waited 15mins to spout that? really? go
away then.
[23:49] <xanthaos> such as dolphin, the pwd, the device name, mount.cifs,
you name it.
[23:49] <f3xy> from what I have gathered I need to uncompress vmlinuz
[23:49] <fenris02> xanthaos, odd
[23:49] <hmaarrfk> @mosno, I don't think so
[23:49] <xanthaos> none of these returned anything
[23:49] <tbwen> I obviously didn't know the etiquette of this room, and
I'm sorry if I offended, but you were being entirely unreasonably hostile
[23:50] <fenris02> tbwen, step 1) NEVER EVER EVER threaten someone you
want help from.
[23:50] <fenris02> tbwen, notice how that is in no way related to irc,
linux or anything other than mere social interaction
[23:50] <fenris02> tbwen, step 2) See step 1.
[23:50] <fenris02> f3xy, what perf tool are you using?
[23:51] <f3xy> none yet :D
[23:51] <fenris02> f3xy, then dont make trouble for yourself.
[23:51] <xanthaos> can you suggest another grep filter that might return
something of use?
[23:51] <f3xy> I'm doing perf test
[23:51] <f3xy> how else are you supposed to learn! ;)
[23:51] <tbwen> fenris02: I did not mean to threaten, but you should have
not kept harassing me. You should have pointed out what I did wrong. How
are people supposed to change if you don't address issues, and you instead
bully them
[23:51] <fenris02> tbwen, ok. last time i'm going to tell you. shut it.
be polite. if you cannot or will not, leave.
[23:52] <fenris02> f3xy, what is your actual end-goal ? so far, "perf
test" is meaningless.
[23:52] <f3xy> well I want perf fully functional that's my first goal
[23:52] <f3xy> then go from there
[23:52] <fenris02> f3xy, again, does not mean anything.
[23:52] <tbwen> fenris02: I'm being perfectly polite. But you should
acknowledge your hostility was not welcome as much as my "threat" was not
welcome. I recognized my mistake and I apologized. </pre>
Thanks for your feedback!

My IRC nick is: Mkaysi
Please briefly describe the interaction that caused you to file this
ticket:
I was banned from #Fedora-social temporarily (15 minutes) for giving
support without thinking about it being support. We were talking about
Steam on Linux and I didn't consider Steam being ontopic for support
channel. The original question was in format that isn't compatible with
Fedora channel faq,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Channel_FAQ#Avoid_Open_Ended_or_Ove...
"Avoid asking questions that are over-general, such as 'Does anyone use
<insert software>?'"
Please note other IRC nicks that are involved in this interaction:
jakkobi, fenrus02, BobJensen
Please describe what action or positive change could be adopted based on
this feedback:
Someone could tell that action is considered as giving support and asking
to move it to the main channel or /query before giving ban.
Any additional notes or logs:
