peermanI'm having trouble logging into the latest live CD. It propts me for a username and I've tried ubuntu, root, xubuntu, etc and a various passwords. I can't find the information on the forums. What is the default username and password for the live CD?01:05
likemindeadHmm... I've never been prompted to login to the Live CD.01:06
peermanall of the other TTYs say "authentication failure"01:06
knomeubuntu:ubuntu should work, but if you are prompted for credentials, the cd is most possibly broken01:07

leoquantevolution-data-server(-common) should be untouched meadlinm09:13
meadlinmI can understand for the generic ubuntu desktop, but is that the same for xubuntu since it is using xfce vs gnome?09:14
leoquantbut that is the gnome part of the story09:14
leoquantmeadlinm, not sure bout that meadlinm09:15
meadlinmok. I'll play around with it a little and see what I can get away with.09:16

ultimakillzhi. i was wondering if i could ask a question here?16:43
charlie-tca!question16:43
ubottuPlease don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)16:43
ultimakillzeasy enough. i recently installed xubuntu 10.10 onto my low spec laptop. everything is working great except my wireless network card. the card i have is a broadcom 4306 rev02. as far as i can tell there are two issues: i cannot install the propriety driver (i receive a installArchives() failed error) and i cannot or have not installed firmware for the card. i was wondering if anyone had any advice. ive tried just about everything16:48
ultimakillzi could find on message boards, forums, etc.16:48
ultimakillzalso, i think in order to install the firmware i need to run this command: "sudo b43-fwcutter b43legacy", but i was wondering if i could get some verification on that16:51
ultimakillzand no, i do not have the laptop with me at the moment, sorry :\16:51
