| FuturePilot | I haven't had any issues with the bcm-wl driver. works perfectly. | 18:00 |
| Paddy_NI | FuturePilot: yeah.. try setting master mode | 18:02 |
| Paddy_NI | ;) | 18:02 |
| Paddy_NI | sudo iwconfig INTERFACE mode master | 18:03 |
| Paddy_NI | it needs to be down first though | 18:03 |
| Paddy_NI | apparently the reverse engineered driver does this.. although I have no idea where this driver is or what it is called | 18:04 |
| Paddy_NI | gotta love how vague linux people are when creating guides.. ultimately the ubuntu wiki will become a link to google | 18:05 |
| Paddy_NI | :) | 18:05 |
| FuturePilot | lol | 18:06 |
| Kenbo11 | Is Ubuntuforums.org down for some reason? | 18:14 |
| Iowan | Seems to be down... | 18:15 |
| Kenbo11 | kinda sux | 18:15 |
| Kenbo11 | Just making sure it wasn't my end | 18:15 |
| Kenbo11 | Any one here good with USB drive mounting problems | 18:21 |
| Paddy_NI | Kenbo11: Can you be more specific? | 18:23 |
| Paddy_NI | I am sure everyone has their fair share of usb mounting problems | 18:23 |
| Kenbo11 | My USB flash drives and my mp3 player stopped automounting last week. They show up under lsusb but not fdisk -l | 18:24 |
| Paddy_NI | Had you installed anything related to disk management during that time? | 18:24 |
| Kenbo11 | not that I know of. (but I really didn't pay much attention to anything that came through update manager) | 18:25 |
| Paddy_NI | oh that would not be updates that are to blame | 18:26 |
| Kenbo11 | I didn't think so | 18:26 |
| Paddy_NI | I did have this issue once before.. but if I recall correctly I caused it | 18:26 |
| Kenbo11 | It's entirely possible that I did too :) | 18:27 |
| Paddy_NI | gah.. damn forums are down :) | 18:27 |
| Paddy_NI | found a thread marked solved and title "usb stopped automounting" | 18:28 |
| Kenbo11 | I know, I posted the question there last night. and was checking it today | 18:28 |
| Kenbo11 | (or was going to check it today) | 18:28 |
| Paddy_NI | they really should have a backup | 18:28 |
| Kenbo11 | yup | 18:28 |
| Paddy_NI | I thought rackspace was providing some sort of gratis hosting for canonical | 18:28 |
| Kenbo11 | Is there a history in Synaptic so I can see when I installed stuff That you know of? | 18:29 |
| Paddy_NI | Kenbo11: I think its just a simple config file that is to blame | 18:30 |
| Paddy_NI | I don't believe synaptic will be helpful in this instance | 18:30 |
| Kenbo11 | Probably. but which one? | 18:30 |
| Paddy_NI | forums down cannot remember | 18:30 |
| Kenbo11 | I just wanted to see if I did install something that I'm not remembering | 18:31 |
| Kenbo11 | OO found the history | 18:31 |
| Paddy_NI | hmm | 18:31 |
| Paddy_NI | cool | 18:31 |
| Kenbo11 | last thing was Mahjong on 4/4 Don't think that could do anything | 18:31 |
| Paddy_NI | :) | 18:32 |
| Paddy_NI | extremely unlikely | 18:32 |
| Kenbo11 | lol | 18:32 |
| Kenbo11 | wierd thing is, it's just the drives. USB printer and wifi still work | 18:33 |
| Paddy_NI | different kettle of fish | 18:33 |
| Paddy_NI | it's not a usb problem | 18:33 |
| Paddy_NI | its a mass storage device prob | 18:34 |
| Kenbo11 | yup | 18:34 |
| Paddy_NI | Have you tried throwing raw minced beef at it? | 18:34 |
| Kenbo11 | will a chopped up hotdog do? | 18:35 |
| Paddy_NI | hmm.. I don't think so.. but there is no harm in trying | 18:35 |
| Kenbo11 | rofl | 18:35 |
| Paddy_NI | as you can tell I will never work for a call centre | 18:36 |
| Kenbo11 | I would think I could find something for this in google but No luck yet | 18:37 |
| Paddy_NI | Mostly links to ubuntuforums | 18:37 |
| Paddy_NI | where I know it is a simple solution | 18:38 |
| Paddy_NI | very | 18:38 |
| Paddy_NI | frustrating I don't write down anything | 18:38 |
| Kenbo11 | I'm the same way. | 18:38 |
| Kenbo11 | NetworkManager[1326]: <info> Unmanaged Device found; state CONNECTED forced. (see http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191889) | 18:41 |
