[11:39] I have problem connecting to my home wireless network after I installed ubuntu in my twinhead efio 2600 notebook, can anyone help? [11:40] alyat, Have you found out what chipset the card uses? [11:41] not yet, the notebook is at home...how to find out anyway? [11:42] You can look in System -> Preferences -> Hardware Information, or "lspci" From the terminal [11:43] ok, what do I do after that? [11:43] It is most likely broadcom, in which case you can probably just install the package bcm43xx-fwcutter [11:43] alyat, It depends on the chipset [11:44] very sorry...hope do I install the package? [11:44] sorry, I am very new to ubuntu [11:46] alyat, No problem, from the GUI go to System -> Administration -> Software Sources and check the box next to "Community software - universe" then go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager search for bcm43xx and check the box next to the packge and hit apply [11:46] alyat, From the terminal run "sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter" [11:47] alyat, Note that is either GUI or terminal, you don't need to do both [11:47] noted [11:49] anything after that? [11:49] alyat, The package manager and repositories are one of the greatest features of Linux, if you haven't already a good first thing to do with Ubuntu is to go to Applications -> Add/remove and browse what software is available. [11:49] alyat, No, just reboot [11:49] thanks [11:49] will try it tonight [11:49] alyat, np :) [11:50] will you be around this hour tomorrow if I can't get it right? [11:50] alyat, Probably. [11:50] thanks, where's your location now? [11:50] alyat, Though you are more likely to catch me earlier [11:51] alright [11:51] alyat, California ( U.S. ) [11:51] oic...I am in Malaysia [11:51] far far away [11:52] How is Linux adoption in Malasia if you don't mind me asking? Here most people have never even heard of Linux. [11:52] still very limited number of people using linux [11:53] I am trying to migrate but many obstacles [11:56] have you been using linux for long? [11:59] ~ 2 years I think [12:00] do you know if there is any AutoCAD equivalent? [12:03] No, I havn't really looked but I think that CAD software is somewhat lacking at the moment [12:03] are you familiar with engineering analysis software? [12:04] No [12:05] In case you didn't know, there is a package called wine that will let you run windows software with varying degrees of success [12:05] oic [12:05] that may be good [12:05] can I synchronise with my PDA which is running windows mobile? [12:05] For a list of what works and how well see... [12:06] !appdb [12:06] where to see that? [12:07] alyat, That was supposed to tell the channel bot to give you info, it seems they are having problems, I tried again more directly, check for a PM from "ubot3" [12:08] !appdb [12:08] Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org [12:09] alyat, The bot isn't even in the channel at the moment [12:09] oic [12:21] thanks Jordan...calling it a day and going home now...will try out my linux when I reach home...hopefully it works [12:21] thanks once again === croppa [n=stuart@135.27.233.220.exetel.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === Crusher [n=You@ppp121-45-9-205.lns10.adl2.internode.on.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === jrib [n=jrib@upstream/dev/jrib] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === vistakiller [n=spiros@ppp86-38.adsl.forthnet.gr] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === neversfelde|mobi [n=neversfe@82.113.121.1] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === neuratix [n=lorents@static149-194.adsl.no] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === Jordan_U [n=Jordan_U@h-68-165-173-119.snvacaid.dynamic.covad.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === Giorgos [n=giorgos@athedsl-234666.home.otenet.gr] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === Giorgos [n=giorgos@athedsl-234666.home.otenet.gr] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] === lil-g-man [n=gvidas@82-128-247-233-Rajakyla-TR1.suomi.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [05:54] here????

[06:15] I'd say it's likely, but I don't know for sure.
