| hobojohn3 | can i get some help with my wireless driver here? | 09:22 |
| Nailor_ | What wireless are you using? | 09:23 |
| === Nailor_ is now known as Nailor | ||
| hobojohn3 | intel pro 3945abg | 09:24 |
| Nailor | What's the problem? And which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 09:24 |
| hobojohn3 | fiesty and my driver isnt working at all its a proprietary driver so i figured can i get one thats not? | 09:25 |
| hobojohn3 | im unable to connect to a wireless network at all | 09:25 |
| hobojohn3 | any ideas? | 09:28 |
| Nailor | Hm. | 09:30 |
| Nailor | on my feisty the same card works just fine | 09:30 |
| Nailor | Have you enabled it from System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers | 09:30 |
| hobojohn3 | how? | 09:31 |
| Nailor | Well, open that software (the path above) | 09:31 |
| Nailor | There should be two checkboxes "Enabled" and "In use" | 09:32 |
| Nailor | Make sure Enabled is ticked | 09:32 |
| hobojohn3 | yeah it is anything else? | 09:32 |
| Nailor | Is it enabled? | 09:32 |
| hobojohn3 | yeah it is | 09:33 |
| hobojohn3 | is there something like wicd for fiesty yet or not? | 09:33 |
| Nailor | wicd? | 09:33 |
| hobojohn3 | it was an edgy thing that was nice | 09:33 |
| hobojohn3 | do you use windows wireless? | 09:33 |
| Nailor | Sometimes | 09:33 |
| hobojohn3 | if so its kind of like that setup you see a list then youclick the one you want | 09:33 |
| Nailor | If you mean some sort of applet managing the wireless connections, there's NetworkManager for that | 09:34 |
| hobojohn3 | where can i get that? | 09:34 |
| Nailor | You should see it (on feisty) as a two computers in the systra | 09:34 |
| Nailor | y | 09:34 |
| Nailor | Are you using Kubuntu or Ubuntu? | 09:34 |
| hobojohn3 | i have 2 of those icons | 09:34 |
| hobojohn3 | ubuntu | 09:34 |
| Nailor | The other one is NetworkManager | 09:34 |
| Nailor | Try left-clicking those | 09:34 |
| hobojohn3 | am i still here? | 09:35 |
| Nailor | Clicking network manager should open a dialog, where you can select wired connection or wireless | 09:35 |
| Nailor | Yes | 09:35 |
| hobojohn3 | k its working now thank you | 09:35 |
| Nailor | No problem =) | 09:35 |
| hobojohn3 | it wasnt so i was trying to fix that thank you very much | 09:36 |
| Nailor | =) | 09:36 |

| iwkse | hi, anybody knows how to collapse/expand voices in boot menu? (not in bios) | 10:36 |
| pwnguin | voices | 10:40 |
| pwnguin | ? | 10:40 |
| pwnguin | oh, choices, probably | 10:40 |
| iwkse | eg. + HD Drives | 10:40 |
| iwkse | - Hard Disk | 10:40 |
| iwkse | - Mp3 Player | 10:40 |
| iwkse | yes, choices | 10:40 |
| pwnguin | have you set this up already? | 10:41 |
| iwkse | i havne't find the way | 10:41 |
| iwkse | i can in the bios using Enter | 10:41 |
| iwkse | it expand/collapse | 10:41 |
| pwnguin | im not sure grub supports cascading menus | 10:41 |
| iwkse | but while booting i don't know how cause enter just make to boot | 10:42 |
| iwkse | no..i'm not talking about grub | 10:42 |
| iwkse | firstly | 10:42 |
| iwkse | i can press f12 for boot menu | 10:42 |
| pwnguin | so is this ubuntu software, or part of your laptop? | 10:43 |
| iwkse | it's not ubuntu | 10:43 |
| iwkse | it's a kind of function that laptops has | 10:43 |
| pwnguin | sounds like bios to me | 10:43 |
| iwkse | yes, that's it | 10:43 |
| iwkse | is a part of bios i believe | 10:44 |
| pwnguin | in which case it would help if you mentioned the model of the laptop | 10:44 |
| iwkse | toshiba satellite L20-257 | 10:44 |
| pwnguin | does left / right arrow keys do the job? | 10:45 |
| iwkse | no | 10:45 |
| iwkse | in the bios it works with Enter | 10:46 |
| iwkse | but using enter too while F12 it will boot | 10:46 |
| pwnguin | well, i can't really tell you much about software ive never used | 10:46 |
| pwnguin | my tecra m7 has a gui system for that | 10:47 |
| pwnguin | not very flexible or understandable | 10:47 |
| iwkse | how does it works? | 10:47 |
| pwnguin | i hold f12 and it pops up with a row of icons and grey bars beneath them | 10:47 |
| pwnguin | one of the bars is highlighted orange | 10:47 |
| pwnguin | left and right arrows move the choice, enter selects | 10:47 |
| iwkse | ah, so it works with left right | 10:48 |
| iwkse | can you tell me the bios? | 10:48 |
| iwkse | phoenix? | 10:48 |
| pwnguin | well, my version is 1.7 | 10:48 |
| pwnguin | huh | 10:48 |
| pwnguin | i have some crazy insane toshiba bios | 10:48 |
| pwnguin | its ugly as all getoout | 10:48 |
| iwkse | ahah | 10:48 |
| iwkse | i have a Phoenix one | 10:49 |
| pwnguin | but most the stuff works and i get decent battery life | 10:49 |
| iwkse | v1.40 | 10:49 |
| iwkse | i like battery too here | 10:49 |
| pwnguin | now that acpi is fixed and tablet rotate works | 10:50 |
| pwnguin | i should look into automating it | 10:50 |
| pwnguin | (its a tablet pc) | 10:50 |
| iwkse | i see | 10:51 |
| iwkse | i'll try to write at toshiba support | 10:51 |
| iwkse | maybe it can helps | 10:51 |
| pwnguin | supposedly they have a linux support team | 10:52 |
| iwkse | isn't related to any OS | 10:52 |
| iwkse | F12 is a bios functino | 10:52 |
| pwnguin | yea, you should probably just get toshiba to answer your question instead of #ubuntu-laptop ;) | 10:53 |
| iwkse | :) | 10:53 |
| pwnguin | have you gotten ubuntu to run on it then? | 10:53 |
| iwkse | wanted to ask here if anybody got the same stuff | 10:53 |
| iwkse | not really, i have debian | 10:53 |
| pwnguin | i think the laptop team is pretty much mjg and his billion laptops | 10:54 |
| iwkse | but doesn't exists a debian-laptop channel:) | 10:54 |
| iwkse | mjg? | 10:54 |
| pwnguin | a person in this channel | 10:54 |
| iwkse | ah | 10:56 |
| iwkse | http://linux.toshiba-dme.co.jp/linux/index.htm | 11:08 |
| pwnguin | it feels about as useful as a fan site | 11:10 |
| iwkse | have you clicked on upper button too before to say that?:) | 11:11 |
| pwnguin | i mean, it seems like its just aggregating what people outside toshiba have done with toshiba on linux | 11:12 |
| pwnguin | "a user has successfully developed an lcd brightness control" | 11:13 |
