Devastator_Techie_ i could make my pccard to work with debian, maybe it will work with xubuntu as i've learned how to do it, but debian installer is faster00:56
Devastatorreplace "could" to "managed00:57
=== [o_O] is now known as danopia`
=== rrmm is now known as rr72_
_Techie_Devastator, yeah, i would presume it should work if you can get it to work in debian, i have a firmware patch on my laptop on my laptops wireless card that i got from a debian forum01:20
Devastator_Techie_ with debian i didn't need to use boot parameters for install, but with xubuntu i need it or "kernel panic" :|01:21
_Techie_it may be a different kernel01:22
Devastatoryep01:22

_Techie_jrochamtz, are you new to linux or just new to ubuntu?06:55
jrochamtzwell.... new here. i have been using linux for a while. but first with ubuntu06:56
jrochamtzmy problem is tha installation says there is no suitable kernel to install, if i want to continue without kernel06:57

jrochamtz8 watts08:20
knomethat's weird08:20
jrochamtzso i was wondering if you have een something like that08:21
jrochamtzi don't know why. it must be recognized as a x86 processor08:22

knome_worklately i've been writing some useful wordpress plugins10:08
Balsaqwow that is really needed10:09
knome_workyeah, we're going to use them ourselves10:09
knome_workbut i can see other people might use them as well10:09
Balsaqwell what about all of us!10:09
knome_worki just have to polish them before publishing10:09

knome_workwhat do you think it is now?10:11
knome_workbrown? :P10:11
Balsaqkinda brown10:12
Balsaqnot sure what to make of it10:12
knome_workokay10:12
knome_workhehe10:12
Balsaqwhat color is it...i have it on one of those old fashioned monitors..the color is as good as my flat panels10:12
Balsaqis not as good i meant10:13
knome_workbeige? :P10:13
knome_workgray?10:13
knome_worksun burnt gray?10:13
Balsaqcan't put a finger on it10:13
Balsaqtaupe10:13
knome_workright10:13
Balsaqxubuntu really has it all10:14
knome_workheh, maybe soon you will have more10:14
Balsaqi have puppylinux, linuxmint, xubuntu,ubuntu, xp pro, w98.....10:15
knome_worki have windows 95 installed in virtualbox ;)10:16
knome_workworks with internet and you can run red alert 2 with it10:16
Balsaqthat would be cool, never saw that OS10:16
knome_workit's much like a bad windows 98, but faster10:16
Balsaqi may buy w 2000 pro for fun...i see it on ebay for 10 dollars sometimes10:17
knome_workhmm10:17
knome_worki'd need a few of those10:17
Balsaqthose dell only discs are cheap and i have lots of dells10:17
knome_worknon-oem versions, preferably10:17
Balsaqwell on of these computers has a w2000 sticker10:17
Balsaqhave you seen mint yet?10:19
knome_worki'm not gonna use those os'es in actual computers, but in virtualbox10:19
knome_workwell, maybe one natively10:19
knome_worki have seen shots of mint10:19
Balsaqsee i don't actuallly even know what virtualbox is...will google it sometime10:19
Balsaqi like the green desktop with water drops10:20
knome_workvirtualbox is emulation software, so you can run an OS under an OS10:21
Balsaqmany times techie or others give me instructions and they have no idea that i don't any even a clue as too what they are talking about10:21
Balsaqbut i eventually find my way10:21
Balsaqwill learn all this eventually10:21
Balsaqi ahve had a computer since 98 but never really paid much attention to it10:22
Balsaqa few days ago i installed FF from the command line without being initiially on the net10:22
Balsaqso i di without bbeing under IE at all10:22
Balsaqhave you done that10:23
Balsaqyou can start at the desktop in xp pro and not be on the internet at all...and do commands and tap into mozilla from the command line ad install it all on a black and white screen....hope its legal10:24
knome_workno, haven't done that10:24
Balsaqit was fun10:24
Balsaqand it made it so it is not under the guise of IE at all10:24
knome_workwhy would going to CLI and installing software be illegal? :P10:24
Balsaqi dunno...felt like a hack or something10:24
Balsaqlike i snuck in the back door10:25
knome_workthat's how the experts usually do things10:26
Balsaqbut then again i dunno what hack is or how to do one, but to me it reminded me of what a real hack looks like in my imagination10:26
knome_workCLI is more powerful if you know how to use it10:26
Balsaqit felt powerful10:26
mr_boo_ltpBalsaq: so you work as a ski patrol?10:27
Balsaqwell on the side yes10:27

Balsaqi really enjoy sonar10:34
mr_boo_ltpfish is the only meat i eat10:34
jrochamtzi want to learn about electronics10:34
knome_workBalsaq: you can soon apply to be a server administrator for google ;D10:34
Balsaqyeah...axept i dont know anything about computeres!10:34
Balsaq(whew bad typing)10:35
knome_workjrochamtz: buy a soldering iron and start playing10:35
mr_boo_ltpdo i need to check for drive fragmentation in xubuntu?10:35
knome_workmr_boo_ltp: no, fragmentation is not really a problem with the filesystems linux usually uses10:36
mr_boo_ltpi see10:36
jrochamtzJAJAJAJAJJA10:36
Balsaqi ahve read the filesystem in linux is far superior to windows10:36
jrochamtzi have read and i know it's not that simple10:36
mr_boo_ltpi know ext3 has special measures for defraggin itself10:36
knome_workjrochamtz: ;)10:36
mr_boo_ltpbut xubuntu uses ext2 right10:37
knome_workthe FS's in linux are written by murderers ;)10:37
jrochamtzxubuntu uses ext410:37
knome_workmr_boo_ltp: ext3 is ext2 with journaling10:37
Balsaqhow can i tell what ext i put this xubuntu in?10:38
Balsaqi dont recall choosing10:38
mr_boo_ltpso xubuntu uses a more powerful file system than ubuntu?10:38
knome_workmr_boo_ltp: no, ubuntu uses ext3 also10:38
knome_workBalsaq: xubuntu uses ext3 by default (at least before karmic)10:38
Balsaqoh good10:39
Balsaqpuppy is in sda1 i think/10:39
knome_workBalsaq: doesn't mount tell the fs type?10:39
Balsaqyes but when iwas done it shows a pic of HD and says something like ssda110:40
Balsaqsda1/dev/10:40
Balsaq?10:40
knome_workthat's the device id10:41
Balsaqi dont have it on now10:41
knome_worksda1 points to specific device on your pc10:41
knome_workand specific partition10:41
Balsaqbut earlier in the install i think it did go in in 310:41
knome_workbut hs nothing to do with FS type10:41
Balsaqmaybe10:41
Balsaqor 2 cant remeber10:41
Balsaq'it runs fast on 400mgz 10 g hd 768sdram10:42
knome_worksince karmic, ext4 is used10:42
Balsaqo10:42
Balsaq itook me 2 days to ge that one going10:42
Balsaqevertime i would tell it to do something it would ask me 10 questions?10:42
knome_workbut if you have upgraded, the FS's are not updated because (if i am correct) you can't updgrade from ext3 to ext4 without losing data)10:42
knome_work-)10:43
knome_workBalsaq: hmm? :)10:43
Balsaqand i knew NONe of the answersto this day it wont go online inless i take it too the desktop with the cd?10:43
Balsaqpuppy is really wierd10:43
knome_workright, puppy10:43
knome_workwell, it's an OS for advanced users10:44
knome_workwith advanced i really mean advanced10:44
knome_worknot like "anything but newbies"10:44
Balsaqgot it in there though,,,even plays utube10:44
knome_workyep :)10:44
Balsaqnightmare....10:44
knome_workhehe10:44
Balsaqnow i get it10:45
Balsaqi just have to learn to make it go online without the dadgummed cd?10:45
Balsaqafter i get to the desk i can pull the cd out and it goes online that way10:45
knome_workyou mean puppy? i don't know10:45
Balsaqyeah puppy10:46
knome_workyou have to install the drivers and do a correct network setup10:46
Balsaqill figure it oute ventually10:46
knome_workby hand, mostly, i think10:46
Balsaqoh yea every piece of it10:46
Balsaqi am pretty far along wth it now10:46
knome_workyeah10:46
knome_workbut you know, that's the idea of puppy10:47
knome_workubuntu is meant to be easy10:47
Balsaqreally its the besy ubu and xu10:47
Balsaqbesy = best10:47
knome_workwith puppy you can do everything like you want, but it's not that easy10:47
Balsaqtoo much tooling around with puppy10:47
knome_worki have to agree10:48
Balsaqglad i did it now, learned a lot10:48
knome_workeven if you could get your system a bit more effective10:48
knome_worki don't need to play with custom packages and that kind of development so i don't need it10:48
Balsaqgets old10:49
knome_workmany of the xfce developers use puppy because it's so customisable10:49
knome_worklike xfce as a DE ;)10:49
Balsaqif could only have 2 it would be xubuntu and xp pro10:49
knome_workif i only could have two, ... oh wait, i only use xubuntu already10:50
knome_work;)10:50
knome_workhave to go now10:50
knome_worksee you later and have a nice day10:50
Balsaqok see ya10:50
Balsaqthanks for all the help10:50
knome_worknp :)10:50
Balsaqi have also been wondring about defrag10:52
Balsaqin buntu10:52
Balsaqi dont do any maintenance on linux?10:52
jrochamtzwho knows how can i boot on cli automtically11:00
jrochamtzi mean init 311:00
Anon164hey11:03
Anon164whats this11:03
ron_oBalsaq, you don't have to worry about defrag too much in linux. Maybe over the course of many years you do.11:20
ron_oin ext4 there is a defragger, but not in ext3 filesystem.11:20
ron_ojrochamtz, you need to pass those paramaters to your kernel upon boot.11:24

kleiniehi everybody, i've installed xubuntu freshly on my desktop, but i can't get samba shares working with thunar12:55
kleiniecan anybody help me?12:55
ablomenkleinie, thunar doesnt have samba support12:56
ablomenkleinie, so either use something like linneighborhood or mount them12:57
ablomens/them/the shares12:58
kleinieok, but there is a howto on the ubuntu forums, with fusesmb, but it doesn't work with karmic12:58
kleiniehttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=304131&highlight=Thunar+Native+Windows+Network+Browsing12:58
kleiniethat's what i'm talking about12:59
ablomenkleinie, i use smbfs myself, after that you can mount shares with mount -t cifs //SERVER/SHARE -o username=USERNAMEorBLANK,password=PASSWORDorBLANK /media/mountpoint or you can add them to fstab13:03
ablomen*after installing that13:03
kleinieok, i try it13:03
ablomenkleinie, for fstab you can use something like this: http://pastebin.com/d549c928913:05
ablomenand you can change noauto to auto if you are not on a laptop btw (so always in the same network), then it would be auto-mounted on boot13:07

Xbuntu_IdiotHey everyone.14:22
WWWWWWOla bruder14:22
Xbuntu_IdiotI'm trying to get a Dell 1395 WLAN card in my laptop to work.  I'm trying to run Xubuntu off an external pen drive in the laptop(8GB) and that boots just fine.  It recognizes that I need broadcom drivers, but when I try automatically, it doesn't work.  NDISwrapper doesn't seem to be doing anything either.14:25

charlie-tcaI need to learn how to do that14:32
Xbuntu_IdiotI've tried a few forum solutions that didn't seem to work.  And I'm fairly new to linux distros as a whole., so that kind of compounds an otherwise problematic issue. :)14:33

Xbuntu_Idiot*swap out "otherwise" with a word that makes sense, like "already".14:34
|Logitech|xD14:34
Xbuntu_IdiotBut yeah.  The problem with your distros getting more user-friendly is having people like me, who've barely run a command line and haven't used a text UI since the Apple II showing up and not knowing how to install a driver. :)14:37
charlie-tcaXbuntu_Idiot: yes14:38
charlie-tcaNo problem there. The issue appears to be with the broadcom card itself14:39
charlie-tcayou can't do a ethernet connection, can you, (using a cable)?14:39
Xbuntu_IdiotI might be able to.14:40
Xbuntu_IdiotI haven't had to in a long time. :);;14:41
charlie-tcaThat would be a better solution that anything we can try with the wireless on that machine14:41
charlie-tcaWhich version of Xubuntu again?14:41
Xbuntu_IdiotI used UNEbootin to create a bootable USB pen drive.  It said "9.10_Live".  Fairly sure that's the version...:)14:44
charlie-tcaThat is. bug 40468514:45
charlie-tcatells me broadcom wireless drivers can't be installed in Karmic Koala; no fix yet14:45
charlie-tcaI have over 50 bugs giving almost the same thing right now14:46
Xbuntu_IdiotAh.  I just installed yesterday, so if there's a version I can install to make the card work I'd be fine switching. :)14:46
charlie-tcaThe problem is there are many versions of the broadcom card and drivers, which makes it very hard to determine what will work14:47
