[01:51] <hot_wheelz> hi 
[01:52] <hot_wheelz> is http://wiki.x.org/wiki/radeonhd the official site for the open driver or not?
[01:54] <hot_wheelz> it would to the case
[02:53] <ikt> good morning all
[02:53] <ikt> heya hot_wheelz 
[02:53] <ikt> in ubuntu just head to:
[02:54] <ikt> system > admin > additional drivers
[02:54] <ikt> and from there you can activate your ati or nvidia graphics card drivers
[02:54] <ikt> iirc the open source drivers are enabled by default
[02:55] <ikt> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[07:38] <sagaci> This airconditioning noise is worse than being at the world cup
[07:42] <ikt> it's raining
[07:44] <sagaci> Catch some water, bottle it and sell it
[07:44] <sagaci> Naturally from the sky
[07:44] <ikt> nice
[07:44] <ikt> i'll make millions
[07:45] <sagaci> Mount Franklin does
[07:57] <ikt> :D
[08:01] <kaushal> Hi
[08:01] <kaushal> can someone please guide me about https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2011-February/239556.html ?
[08:04] <head_victim> Do you have a kernel that is 2.6.33+ ?
[08:05] <head_victim> And please don't paste across multiple channels
[08:05] <sagaci> Otherwise there'll be trouble
[08:09] <kaushal> head_victim: apologies
[08:09] <kaushal> does 10.10 comes with kernel 2.6.33+ ?
[08:09] <nisshh> kaushal, 10.10 by default comes with 2.6.35
[08:09] <nisshh> but 10.04 doesnt
[08:10] <nisshh> 10.04 only comes with 2.6.32
[08:10] <kaushal> ok
[08:10] <kaushal> is it available for 10.04 ?
[08:10] <sagaci> Maybe in the backports
[08:10] <kaushal> ah ok
[08:10] <sagaci> Not as well tested though
[08:11] <nisshh> either in backports or you would have to compile it yourself, which i dont recommend
[08:11] <kaushal> nisshh: ol
[08:11] <kaushal> ok*
[08:11] <kaushal> so how do i get around this issue ?
[08:12] <sagaci> Install 10.10
[08:12] <nisshh> oh you have broadcom wireless
[08:12] <kaushal> so enable backports and then do sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:12] <kaushal> nisshh: yes
[08:12] <nisshh> apparently broadcom drivers sucked prior to around 10.10 is
[08:12] <nisshh> ish
[08:13] <sagaci> Broadcom wireless has been fine for me since 10.04
[08:13] <nisshh> yeah
[08:13] <kaushal> but i am on 10.10
[08:13] <nisshh> i think the issue was the ath5k driver as opposed to the ath9k driver or some such
[08:13] <kaushal> and not on 10.04
[08:14] <nisshh> kaushal, i cant help sorry, i dont have anything with broadcom wireless
[08:14] <sagaci> Well go to additional drivers and install it
[08:14] <kaushal> sagaci: additional drivers ?
[08:14] <nisshh> kaushal, system > administration > hardware drivers
[08:14] <kaushal> is it from the website of broadcom ?
[08:14] <sagaci> Under system administration
[08:14] <kaushal> nisshh: i did that
[08:14] <nisshh> heh, no
[08:14] <kaushal> already 
[08:15] <nisshh> and?
[08:15] <sagaci> Should get an open and a closed driver
[08:15] <nisshh> you should have the ath9k driver available unless your wireless is an old model
[08:16] <kaushal> ok
[08:16] <kaushal> so install athk9 for this broadcom wireless card ?
[08:16] <kaushal> nisshh: I have mentioned the card details too in the email thread
[08:17] <nisshh> kaushal, i dont know, it really depends on your issue, you just say "its not working" but thats too generic
[08:18] <sagaci> Does anything show in networkmanager applet
[08:18] <kaushal> yes
[08:18] <kaushal> no firmware 
[08:22] <sagaci> Ah ok
[08:25] <kaushal> nisshh: I would pastebin the daemon.log too
[08:25] <kaushal> sagaci: sure
[08:26] <nisshh> kaushal, if you like
[08:44] <kaushal> nisshh: as you suggested to enable backports can i do it in 10.10 ?
[08:47] <nisshh> kaushal, it can be done in any version of Ubuntu, but i cannot help you now, i must go out
[08:47] <kaushal> nisshh: sure
[08:47] <kaushal> and thanks
[08:47] <kaushal> np
[10:23] <ikt> hrmm
[10:24] <ikt> haven't seen darkrose in a while
[10:24] <ikt> she in brisbane?
[10:25] <nisshh> ikt, no, she just doesnt sit in the loco channels anymore
[10:25] <nisshh> essentially, she isnt part of the loco now
[10:26] <ikt> :(
[12:09] <elky> nisshh, :((( what happened?
[12:15] <sagaci> ...?
[12:23] <Blank__> elky, I get the distinct impression she wants nothing to do with ubuntu anymore...
[12:24] <elky> Blank__, she's in other ubuntu channels though
[12:24] <Blank__> the topic of one of her channels states: "STFU about Ubuntu"
[12:25] <elky> she's in the UW channels still
[12:25] <sagaci> oh, thought there was something wrong with nisshh but it's just a continuation
[12:26] <sagaci> like he bricked his router
[12:27] <Blank__> oh wow, quail too
[12:33] <sagaci> burnout
[12:44] <nisshh> elky, what?
[12:44] <elky> nisshh, you mentioned darkrose leaving.
[12:44] <elky> i was asking about that.
[12:44] <nisshh> elky, yeah, darkrose and quail inhabit other channels now
[12:45] <nisshh> she is still around, but she doesnt like being in the Ubuntu channels now
[12:45] <nisshh> don't ask me
[12:45] <nisshh> why
[12:45] <nisshh> probably because she doesnt contribute to the loco, or whats left of it
[12:46] <nisshh> elky, she used to only not be in here, but now she isnt in -chat either
[12:46] <elky> Dear whoever controls the thermostat, I would like to register a complaint: http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDN60901/IDN60901.94767.shtml
[12:48] <Blank__> it's still about 27 here, having hit about 38 during the day
[12:48] <elky> Blank__, it did get cooler. it's decided to get hotter again. at nearly midnight
[12:48] <Blank__> elky, looking at those figures, you're right :S
[12:49] <Blank__> I do wish that whoever/whatever controlling aforementioned thermostat would knock it down 10 degrees or so
[12:49] <Phlosten> it is broken
[12:50] <Phlosten> power failure
[12:50] <Blank__> have to get the electrician in?
[12:50] <Phlosten> we lost power out here for an hour on Thursday, rather interesting
[12:50] <Phlosten> "what do you mean you only get 12 minutes on the UPS.."
[12:51] <Blank__> a UPS != a generator
[12:52] <Phlosten> indeed
[12:52] <Blank__> until the advent of portable, safe hydrogen cells, we're stuck with things like UPS' with SLA batteries, and fossil fuel-powered generators, with the occasional solar panel/wind turbine somewhere
[12:52] <Phlosten> although I did discover our PABX doesnt have a battery backup in it, bought a UPS for it on Friday
[12:58] <Blank__> ah, interesting
[12:58] <Blank__> well time for sleep...
[12:59] <Blank__> must go before i get caught up chatting to even more people :p
[13:12] <ikt> ok
[13:12] <ikt> so I have to simply resetup ubuntu on a pc, reinstall bind, copy the files over, redownload/install zimbra, then flick the ip's over and we're all good ayay
[13:13] <ikt> not a problem
[13:13]  * ikt self motivates himself
