jeff22how do I use ubuntu to connect to the internet05:28
naliothif you have an active network connection, it should automatically use the internet05:28
jeff22no, i don't have that, I only have dial-up05:29
tonyyarusso!dialup | jeff2205:29
ubotujeff22: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto05:29
jeff22thanks, I'll read that05:30
jeff22do I need gnome-ppp? it isn't on the liveCD05:32
tonyyarussoYou don't need it no, it's just another interface you can choose.05:34
jeff22okay05:34
jeff22I'm back to square one, I have no idea how to use dial up with ubuntu to access the internet05:46
tonyyarussojeff22: Do you know what chipset your modem is?05:48
jeff22no05:48
jeff22it's an internal modem05:49
tonyyarussoI recommend using the scanModem script from linmodems.org05:49
jeff22thanks again, I'll try that05:51

=== neuratix [n=lorents@84.16.204.46.netcrew.no] has joined #ubuntu-classroom
GfatherYes04:16
Wookstahttp://pastebin.ca/371657 <--- i'm getting the following errors when trying to compile rainbowcrack, can anyone help?04:16
soundrayI'll give you some commands to type in. Copy everything between the quotes:04:17
Gfatherok04:17
soundray'cat /etc/resolv.conf'04:17
soundrayThat'll list your DNS settings04:17
Gfatherok04:17
GfatherI got 2 nameservers04:17
soundrayPick the first one and do 'ping 10.11.12.13', substituting the IP address04:18
GfatherOk04:18
soundrayGfather: are you getting ping responses?04:18
GfatherHost Unreachable04:18
soundrayAah, that's the trouble04:18
soundrayTry the second one04:18
GfatherOk04:18
GfatherHow can I stop this one?04:19
soundrayCtrl-C04:19
GfatherIt keeps on going04:19
soundraysry forgot04:19
GfatherOk, thanks04:19
GfatherSecond one gives Host Unreachable aswell04:19
soundrayGfather: I need to know a bit about your internet setup now.04:20
GfatherSure04:20
soundrayGfather: are you using a modem?04:20
GfatherI use a UTP-cable to connect with the electrical net in my house (230v)04:20
soundrayOh, powerline internet04:20
GfatherYer04:21
GfatherVia a router it goes to the normal cable04:21
soundrayGfather: is that the connection that we are also using for this chat?04:22
Gfathernope04:22
GfatherI got 2 computers here04:22
GfatherThis one is the AMD one running on winxp (bleh 0.o )04:22
soundrayHow is that one connected? Not via the router?04:22
GfatherThe other one is the p2 (300 mhz) with ubuntu 6.0604:22
GfatherThis one has wireless04:23
soundrayWireless to the same router or a different one?04:23
GfatherStrange thing about this is, I do have internet on that p2, but it's very slow04:23
GfatherSame04:23
soundrayCould you try pinging the same two addresses from your Win XP box?04:24
Gfathersure04:24
Gfather32 ms04:24
GfatherIt's pinging :)04:24
soundrayExcellent. We've narrowed down the problem.04:25
GfatherOther ip too04:25
soundrayWe know it's somewhere between the router (which we know works) and the Ubuntu machine (which appears to be set up correctly)04:25
soundrayDo you know the router's LAN IP?04:26
GfatherNot really04:26
soundrayWhen you do a 'tracepath 10.11.12.13', again substituting the nameserver IP, the second line should respond to the router04:27
GfatherSo I need to use the second IP I used before with "tracepath" ?04:28
soundraycorrespond, I mean04:28
soundrayGfather: that or the other, doesn't matter04:28
GfatherOk04:28
GfatherOk, I got something04:29
Gfather1 line of information, next line says: no reply, and then a line with the ip but a way higher ms04:30
GfatherFirst line has 0.843 ms, third line has 2004.217 ms04:30
soundrayGfather: I think those lags result from your powerline connection04:31
GfatherWhen I use that connection on this computer, it does not lag at all04:31
soundrayIs there some sort of networking device you plug into the power sockets, or are you using the raw wire?04:32
GfatherThere's some sort of device04:33
GfatherWhich has 4 LEDs04:33
GfatherLink Act Link/Act Collision04:33
=== hexidigital [n=root@unaffiliated/hexidigital] has joined #ubuntu-classroom
GfatherAt this moment only Link/Act lights up04:34
soundrayIs it possible that the wireless signal interferes with the powerline signal?04:34
GfatherI used both connections at the same time on this computer, that worked a treat04:35
soundrayI see04:36
GfatherDoes pmtu 1500 say anything?04:37
soundraySome packet size, I'm not sure what it means04:37
GfatherOk04:37
soundrayOkay, I think I have a diagnosis04:37
GfatherOk04:38
soundray* your ubuntu setup is fine (otherwise you wouldn't get gmail at all)04:38
soundray* your router and internet is fine (otherwise we wouldn't be able to chat)04:38
soundray* your powerline connection is fine (since it works with your XP machine)04:38
soundray- what's left is the network hardware in your ubuntu machine.04:39
GfatherAnd maybe drivers / software on the ubuntu machine?04:39
soundrayI don't think so04:40
GfatherOk04:40
soundrayMainly because your internet does work (albeit extremely slow)04:40
=== Wooksta [n=Wooksta@82-41-99-118.cable.ubr03.dund.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-classroom
GfatherWhat should I do now?04:40
soundrayAnd ethernet driver problems are exceedingly rare04:40
Wookstaany reason why "sudo init 3" wouldnt drop me down to run level 3?04:41
soundrayGfather: It depends on what you have lying around in the way of hardware04:41
soundrayAny spare network cards?04:41
soundrayWhat kind of wireless card does your XP machine use?04:42
GfatherNot at this moment, next to that the machine only has USB slots left04:42
GfatherWireless: 802.111G standard card (don't know if it's the correct numbers)04:42
soundrayHow is it connected? PCI? USB?04:43
GfatherEeeerm, PCI I think04:43
GfatherIt's got it's own (big) slot which doesn't look like USB04:43
GfatherSo it's got to be PCI04:44
soundrayPity, cause if you had a USB wireless card, we could quickly try it with your ubuntu machine04:44
GfatherTrue04:45
GfatherIf I use a crosscable, could I make a connection with my winxp machine04:46
soundrayYes, that would be a good idea04:46
GfatherAnd via that machine, via the router connect to internet?04:46
GfatherNow to find a crosscable ...04:46
GfatherI got one laying here somewhere I'm sure04:46
soundrayYou'd just have to setup XP internet connection sharing. I don't know anything about that.04:47
GfatherOk, I'll give that a go tomorrow, because I seem to have given away all my crosscables04:47
soundrayHere's another ide04:49
soundraya04:49
soundrayIf you can move your ubuntu machine and connect it directly to the router, bypassing the powerline, and it works, that would prove that the difficulty is with the powerline04:50
GfatherThat would be a problem, router downstairs, machine upstairs04:50
soundrayYes, I thought so...04:51
soundrayI'm just concerned that I may not have convinced you that your Ubuntu installation is just fine...04:51
GfatherYou have04:51
soundrayOh, good04:51
GfatherI'm going to try to get an extra wireless card tomorrow + a crosscable04:51
GfatherSo I can try them both and see what it does04:52
soundrayBe careful, many wireless devices are difficult to use with Linux04:52
=== Largka [n=cyrildrx@cable-195-162-211-223.upc.chello.be] has joined #ubuntu-classroom
soundrayBuy from a dealer who will exchange it for you04:52
GfatherHmmm, ok04:52
GfatherGood advice :)04:53
soundrayAnd best get a card with a Ralink chipset04:53
soundrayUnfortunately you can't tell from the box in most cases04:53
GfatherI could ask the dealer04:53
soundrayMost of them won't know either04:53
GfatherPity04:54
soundray"It comes with Windows drivers -- what do you want?"04:54
soundray:(04:54
GfatherHahahaha :)04:54
soundrayThere is a dealer who specializes in Linux-supported hardware here. Maybe you have someone like that in Holland, too04:55
GfatherI hope so04:56
GfatherThanks for you help04:57
soundrayWell, good luck with your setup04:57
GfatherThanks04:57
soundrayTot ziens!04:57
