Laibschdarrend_laptop: Maybe you want to take a look at bug 6268502:43
ubotuMalone bug 62685 in linux-source-2.6.17 "[Edgy regression]  Hostap driver for PRISM2 wifi card not working any more" [High,Confirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/6268502:43
LaibschThere is a workaround on how to get things going again in there as well.02:43
darrend_laptopLaibsch: I've looked through a lot of bugs!  Including that one.  My problem appears to be with the automatic (or not as it happens) association to the AP.  I roam between many networks, and had this working great under edgy02:45
darrend_laptopused to be able to suspend in one place, open up in the next and associate immediately.  Now it can take up to 3 hours of trying before it will reassociate02:45
darrend_laptopno change to drivers or my wpa_supplicant.conf02:46
Laibschwell, then I don't know02:46
LaibschI have my own problems unfortunately.02:46
darrend_laptopunfortunately, it seems that no-one else does either02:47
darrend_laptopwhat concerns me is that all the so called "solutions" to this are based on Network-Manager02:47
LaibschScanning is erratic.  Sometimes it returns errors and sometimes it works (unfortunately, seldom)02:47
darrend_laptopwhich I don't use since it needs 500MB of gnome libs and I want networking whether I have X running or not anyway02:47
darrend_laptopbut something must have changed in the scripts (or possibly the wpa_supplicant package) between edgy and feisty to make this fail.  That's what I'm struggling to find info about02:48
darrend_laptoponce I actually GET connected to the AP, it works absoultely fine, so no driver/hardware issues I think02:49
darrend_laptop(off for a quick reboot as I just updated another 150Mb of packages and want to see a clean restart with them) ;)02:50

kj0ttdeigis it possible to make xubuntu use the screen resolution 1280x1024? everywhere i check, 1024x768 is the maximum, and editing xorg.conf doesn't help07:45
PumpernickelWhat video card do you have?07:45
Naughtyboyand what kind of monitor ar you using..?07:46
kj0ttdeigsapphire radeon 9600se07:47
kj0ttdeig1280x1024 works well in kubuntu and ubuntu on the very same hardware, but i prefer xubuntu07:48
PumpernickelCould you pastebin your xorg.conf?07:52
Pumpernickel!paste07:52
ubotupastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)07:52
kj0ttdeigsure07:53
kj0ttdeighttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14053/07:55
PumpernickelOK, you should only have to add the resolution in the "Screen" section and update the HorizSync and VertRefresh options in the "Monitor" section.08:02
PumpernickelThere's an online modeline calculator here for the second part: http://www.bohne-lang.de/spec/linux/modeline/08:03
PumpernickelAnd if you don't have any wacom devices, you may as well remove the sections dealing with those.08:03
kj0ttdeighmmm, i did the first part, but where should the modelines go?08:08
PumpernickelIt's just for the HorizSync and VertRefresh values.08:09
kj0ttdeigi see.. i've done it now, i guess i need to restart x-server!?08:15

Diegoi am installing by a cd11:53
maxamillionDiego: which cd?11:53
maxamillionDiego: there are 2 options11:53
QewDiego: should just about work. However, to install it, you'll have to use the alternative CD and not the live one.11:54

Qewyeah, it'll work, but won't install11:54

QewDiego: http://ftp.cw.net/xubuntu/releases/6.10/release/ and search for your appropriate alternative CD11:56
Diegothx11:57
QewDiego: well, seeing that the Live CD worked, this should work for you. The live cd would probably be slow, but if it gets installed on a HD, it should pick up speed.11:57
Diegoyeah, but the install did seem to stop when i picked the timeline and keyboard layout11:58
Diegoso i will try it with the alternate cd11:59
