lemurfanCan edubuntu conect to a wireless network?02:52
jsgotangcoyes02:53
lemurfanHow02:53
jsgotangcohvae you configured wireless in linux before?02:53
jsgotangcoits pretty much the same02:53
lemurfanno02:53
jsgotangcothe installer usually detects your wireless interface02:53
lemurfanJust by plugging in my USB WiFi stick02:54
jsgotangcodo ifconfig and check if you have an additional interface after plugging it in02:54
lemurfanOh right02:55
cbx33jsgotangco, doesn;'t iwconfig check for wireless?02:56

=== paolob [n=donpaolo@196.3.84.214] has joined #edubuntu
paolobHi ogra_ ! I resolved the problem with the mounting failures: it was due to electromagnetic interferences from two inverters situated very near to the net wiring.06:13
cbx33paolob, wow06:14
cbx33neat problem06:14
paolobcbx33, I wrote something in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPWiring , but is worth a check with the language...06:16
cbx33nice06:17
paolobandk I think it would be better to put a section in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/TroubleShooting06:17
cbx33coulkd the clients still talk to the network before06:17
highvoltagepaolob: interesting problem :)06:18
highvoltageedubuntugirl: choose go to punk rock show tonight or work through it06:18
edubuntugirlI choose work through it, highvoltage06:18
highvoltageshe never lets me have any fun.06:19
paolobHere in Dominican Republic every pc must have an inverter, and I suppose many more 3rd world countries have the same situation06:19
highvoltagepaolob: what kind of power do you use there?06:19
highvoltagehere in South Africa it's just 230V 50hz power06:20
highvoltage(well, supposed to be 230V but during peak times in winter it drops quite a bit)06:20
paolobhighvoltage, 110 V06:21
paolob60 Hz06:21
paolobI think it's the USA standard06:21
paolobeconomically we are a USA satellite06:21
highvoltageaaha06:21
highvoltageI don't quite understand what the inverters are for though06:22
=== juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu
paoloban inverter is an electrical power source with deep cycle batteries06:23
paolobHere we have power some 12-14 hours a day, mainly in the night06:23
highvoltagewow, that's real interesting. those deep cycle batteries must be extremely expensive06:24
juliuxevening06:24
highvoltagehey jules06:24
cbx33hi juliux06:24
juliuxonly two examens to go;06:25
=== highvoltage goes against edubuntugirl's decision
highvoltagebye!06:25
paolobhighvoltage, a 6 V 225 Ah battery costs some  US$100.00, and a 3.5 KV inverter costs some US$1,00006:26
highvoltagepaolob: does it get enough chance to charge fully while the power is up?06:26
juliuxcbx33, if you have time take a look at http://ubuntu.juliux.de/edubuntu_back.png and http://ubuntu.juliux.de/edubuntu_front.png06:26
paolobhighvoltage, yes, it charges the batteries in 3-4 hours06:26
cbx33ooooh nice juliux06:27
