[00:06] possibly [00:06] I have what appears to be a newer (partially supported) wacom bamboo tablet [00:07] the device is picked up by the kernel (least lsusb is promising), but not the wacom tools, x, or applications like gimp [00:07] <_Techie_> what model number? [00:07] ctl-460 [00:07] bamboo pen [00:08] _Techie_: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 056a:00d4 Wacom Co., Ltd [00:08] supposeldy the bamboo "just works" but not this model..

[03:10] everyone sleeping? [03:11] apt!|xfact [04:47] anybody here?? [04:48] guess not [04:48] oh well [09:03] i upgraded to koala and my eth1 was changed to eth0:avahi. how to connect my wicd-client to the wireless? i tried changing the setting there to eth0:avahi but I still don't see any wireless networks. [09:15] someone told me to try disable avahi daemon. not sure why and what is this. any tips? [09:16] <_Pete_> is your wlan interface even recogniced? [09:16] <_Pete_> you can see that with iwconfig [09:22] _Pete_: no [09:22] <_Pete_> no what? [09:23] i see 'no wireless extensions' [09:23] <_Pete_> then it's not recogniced by kernel [09:23] (lo, eth0 and pan0) [09:23] <_Pete_> koala is still very beta [09:23] <_Pete_> so no wonder things dont work with it [09:24] _Pete_: ifconfig shows me eth0 and eth0:avahi. the last one looks like wireless [09:24] i see Link encap:Ethernet [09:24] <_Pete_> if iwconfig says there no wireless extensions [09:24] and an internal ip [09:24] <_Pete_> then it's not wireless [09:25] ok\ [09:25] <_Pete_> probably kernel module for your wifi is missing [09:25] bummer. in 9.04 wireless was ok [09:26] i'll look for the macbookpro pages online.
