[12:05] My whole family are deeply invested in Linux software. That laptop still has Windows because it came with it, but it's never used. I'll reclaim the disk space from it soon ;) [12:05] hehehe [12:06] did she have the same nic as me with a laptop? I have a belkin f5d7000 I think [12:06] abom: okay, anyway, I think you're nearly there. [12:06] but we haven't made any progress at all, lol :o [12:06] No, the manufacturer is different, but the chipset is the same. [12:06] o ok, hrm [12:07] abom: yes, we have. All that's left to do is to finish off disabling NetworkManager/nm-applet and reboot. Don't forget to disable it in Startup programs. [12:07] so I disable it and try to disable "roaming mode" right? and do automatic dhcp? [12:08] Yes, yes and yes. [12:08] where do I disable the nm-applet? [12:08] System-Preferences-Session, then on the Startup programs tab === neuratix [n=lorents@ti521110a080-8637.bb.online.no] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [12:09] ok, I unchecked it anything else before I reboot? [12:09] When you've done that, could you do a 'cat /etc/network/interfaces' and paste the output here if it's not too much [12:10] # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system [12:10] # and how to activate them.

[12:11] it's not too much, like I said before, I really do appreciate all the help...

[12:22] The only software difference between my wife's system and yours right now is that my wife has the updated driver module. [12:23] o ok so that's the thing you were saying at first [12:23] Are you on i386 or amd64? [12:23] amd64 [12:23] Oh, excellent. [12:23] should I do i386? [12:24] In that case, if you thought it worth the bother, you could try my compiled module. [12:24] I'd rather try that than just give up :o [12:24] My wife's system is 7.04 amd64 as well, so the module should be compatible and you can just drop it in to replace your current one. === awkorama [n=awk@gw.cnet.sk] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [12:25] o cool, do I need to reboot or shut down my rt61 module?
