| KenN_ | hi, I'm having problems with my wireless connection, there's a significant lag between me clicking on an url, and it actually starting to open [same is for email, I have to wait for up to 20-30 seconds after clicking and it actually getting some mail] | 18:46 |
| KenN_ | problem is cross browser, cross mail client | 18:47 |
| starcraftman | hi KenN_ :) | 18:48 |
| starcraftman | what's the router/modem model? | 18:49 |
| KenN_ | when I look at my connections, under the wireless tab, it shows my router, but it often sais: last used, x minutes ago | 18:49 |
| KenN_ | it seems like it drops the connection, and then reconnects...? | 18:49 |
| KenN_ | driving me nuts, every tab I open, I have to wait for 20 seconds for anything to happen at all | 18:50 |
| KenN_ | well, I can't figure it out, everything is OK, accept that it doesnt work | 19:15 |

| Codehead | i am trying to install ubuntu on an older HP destop | 22:58 |
| Codehead | i downloaded it to my Mac and burned it to a cd | 22:58 |
| rodemire | How old are you talking about? Specs? | 22:58 |
| Codehead | 2 years old intel 4 pentium | 22:59 |
| rodemire | RAM, HDD? | 22:59 |
| Codehead | the hp will boot off the cd, but the installation fails midway through | 23:00 |
| Codehead | ram is 4 gb hdd 100gb | 23:00 |
| Codehead | the hp won't boot off the flash drive | 23:01 |
| rodemire | Codehead: With those specs it should run ALL ubuntu distros. Probably something wrong during the installation process At what point does it fail? | 23:01 |
| Codehead | boot menu doesn't have an option for usb boot | 23:01 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: What system did you use to create the bootable Flash drive? | 23:01 |
| Codehead | mac | 23:02 |
| Codehead | osx | 23:02 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: That's not what I asked. What software did you use? | 23:02 |
| Codehead | latestest distro | 23:02 |
| === dumbstupidhuman is now known as jpg | ||
| aveilleux | Codehead: ....UNetBootIn? What program did you use to /create the bootable USB drive/? | 23:03 |
| Codehead | idk...whatever comes with a mac | 23:03 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: So, Disk Utility | 23:03 |
| Codehead | ya | 23:03 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: Which won't work because Disk Utility can't properly make bootable USB drives | 23:03 |
| Codehead | ahhhhh | 23:03 |
| Codehead | suggestions? | 23:04 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: If you have access to a Windows or Linux machine, you can try UNetBootIn | 23:05 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: As far as I'm aware, there aren't any utilities on a Mac for creating a bootable USB drive (other than the OSX install disc) | 23:05 |
| Codehead | kk...so i boot my hp off the ubuntu cd, then copy the download to the hp, then run unetbootin to create a bootable flash? | 23:08 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: I have no idea what that sentence means. Could you rephrase? | 23:08 |
| stlsaint | Codehead: boot to the livecd and from there create your bootable usb | 23:09 |
| Codehead | how do i using what utility saint? | 23:10 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: Boot into the Ubuntu LiveCD. Open Terminal, type "sudo apt-get install unetbootin". Then run the command "unetbootin" | 23:10 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: Sorry, I mean "gksudo unetbootin" | 23:11 |
| aveilleux | Codehead: When asked to select the type of installation, hit the first radi button ("Distribution") and select Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop. Select the USB drive and hit OK. | 23:11 |
| rodemire | Codehead: I think like stlsaint mentioned, it would be easier to boot into the Live CD and create the LIVE USB from there. (System\Administration\Startup Disk creator | 23:12 |
| aveilleux | redemire: That creates a Lice USB image, IIRC, which is not what Codehead wants | 23:12 |
| aveilleux | Live* | 23:12 |
| rodemire | aveilleux, yes, and he can then install from the USB. | 23:13 |
| aveilleux | redemire: N-no, I mean it installs the full system on the USB. Not the LiveCD. "Live USB" means it's a fully-functioning system. ie. not the install disc. | 23:13 |
| Codehead | kk..thx guys...ima go try this...bbl | 23:15 |
| arifovic | Anyone can help me about blank screen while booting? | 23:22 |
| stlsaint | arifovic: have you recently done any updates | 23:22 |
| arifovic | stlsaint: yes. | 23:23 |
| stlsaint | arifovic: and now you are no longer able to get into your desktop | 23:25 |
| arifovic | stlsaint: it only happens occasionally. I usually just straight punch the power button to turn it off | 23:27 |
| aveilleux | arifovic: Do you get little red lines at the top of your screen? | 23:31 |
| arifovic | aveilleux: no, just sign "_" which stops blinking | 23:33 |
| aveilleux | arifovic: Ah, I see... I was wondering if you had a similar problem to me, but I guess not | 23:37 |
| arifovic | aveilleux: so, what can I do? | 23:50 |
| aveilleux | I don't now, X isn't my strong point | 23:51 |
| duanedesign | arifovic: so you are able to boot up sometimes | 23:53 |
| arifovic | duanedesign: hahaha..that's not a solution. | 23:54 |
| duanedesign | arifovic: sorry was supposed to be a quesstion mark at the end of that | 23:55 |
| duanedesign | arifovic: if you can get to a terminal or command prompt I would run these commands: | 23:56 |
| duanedesign | sudo dpkg --configure -a | 23:56 |
| duanedesign | sudo apt-get install -f | 23:56 |
| duanedesign | sudo apt-get update; sudo apt get upgrade | 23:56 |
| arifovic | duanedesign: that's command for what? | 23:58 |
| aveilleux | arifovic: It reconfigures everything and fixes dependencies | 23:58 |
| aveilleux | arifovic: It's basically a basic quick fixall command | 23:59 |
| arifovic | aveilleux: everything? | 23:59 |
