[16:19] <inetpro> good evening
[16:20] <panfriedsidh> evening
[16:21]  * inetpro just realised that CellC is a big NOGO at home
[16:21] <inetpro> now testing Vodacom again
[16:22] <inetpro> sadly the best option is still Telkom wireless
[16:23] <superfly> hi inetpro
[16:24] <panfriedsidh> i havent been paying attention to the 3g offfers much lately. i useusing voda3g on the road 
[16:24] <inetpro> superfly: hi
[16:24] <panfriedsidh> >use
[16:26] <panfriedsidh> dont even know what Telkom wireless is :| ..and i think i can live with that for the moment
[16:27] <inetpro> well if I could get wired ADSL I would definitely be on it
[16:28] <panfriedsidh> sure
[16:29] <panfriedsidh> i've heard those booster antennae work for 3g
[16:32] <inetpro> I'm kinda happy with Telkom wireless but was hoping that I could get away with something cheaper
[18:31] <Kilos> inetpro, ping
[18:36] <Kilos> is there one of ya here that can help me with gedit please. i have the list of commands to enter but not sure what to leave out
[18:37] <Kilos> commands/code
[18:42] <Kilos> and i am not sure if it might fix this modem prob or change things so other modems dont work here anymore
[19:06] <inetpro> Kilos: pong
[19:06] <inetpro> what's with gedit?
[19:07] <Kilos> lo boet
[19:07] <Kilos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/597947/
[19:08] <Kilos> im not sure what all to put in and what to leave out inetpro 
[19:08] <Kilos> i have wvdial and modeswtch installed
[19:09] <Kilos> its just from where they tell you to do this and further
[19:09] <Kilos> sudo gedit /etc/usb-modeswitch-x225s.conf
[19:10] <Kilos> i dunno if i must have the word code in too
[19:11] <Kilos> and after that there are a few more to do but i am not sure what to not put in
[19:12] <superfly> Kilos: did you install modeswitch from the site, or from the Ubuntu repositories? and where did you get those instructions?
[19:12] <Kilos> sec superfly  it comes from ubuntu
[19:12] <superfly> good
[19:14] <nlsthzn> cheers all... time for zzzzz's
[19:14] <Kilos> im just trying to find the link
[19:14] <Kilos> sleep tight nlsthzn 
[19:15] <Kilos> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1576997
[19:15] <Kilos> methinks it was that one
[19:17] <Kilos> and modeswitch etc i installed  with sudo aptitude
[19:17] <superfly> Kilos: ah, yes, that looks like a good tutorial
[19:18] <superfly> Kilos: what sim card are you hoping to use in it?
[19:18] <Kilos> vodacom
[19:18] <superfly> ok
[19:18] <Kilos> then my cell phone can be a cellphone not a modem
[19:18] <superfly> in the wvdial script, where it says: Init3 = at+cgdcont=1,"IP","internet.wind"
[19:19] <superfly> change that to: Init3 = at+cgdcont=1,"IP","internet"
[19:19] <superfly> (i.e. remove the ".wind" in the last quoted part
[19:19] <Kilos> ok
[19:21] <Kilos> the big thing is superfly  i am not sure where to stop and what to leave out from all of that
[19:21] <superfly> Kilos: do *exactly* as the instructions say
[19:21] <Kilos> like where it says unfortunately the network manager isnt happy or something
[19:23] <superfly> Kilos: yes, the instructions get you to use wvdial instead
[19:27] <Kilos> eish the remote thing killed me 
[19:27] <Kilos> ok superfly  but the next line i must leave out hey?
[19:28] <Kilos> i bang i mess up then its ten times the work to repair again
[19:29] <superfly> Kilos: as long as you follow all of the instructions, and follow them exactly, you should be fine
[19:30] <Kilos> ok heres hoping
[19:30] <Kilos> ty superfly 
[19:30] <Kilos> i can always go edit it agin hey?
[19:30] <superfly> yes
[19:30] <Kilos> it wont crash my using fone as modem?
[19:31] <superfly> no
[19:32] <Kilos> oh sorry superfly  must i leave the word code: out
[19:32] <Kilos> or must that also be in there
[19:32] <superfly> oh yes, leave that out
[19:33] <Kilos> whew ty
[19:33] <superfly> Maaz: Kilos++ [ nie so dom soos hy dink hy is nie ]
[19:33] <Kilos> eish
[19:44] <Kilos> superfly, skuus man. where they use wind  for password and username can i take wind out and leave blank there or do i need the vodacom info
[19:44] <superfly> Kilos: blank
[19:45] <superfly> Vodacom doesn't use a username and password
[19:45] <Kilos> yay
[19:45] <superfly> they track you via your cellphone number
[19:46] <Kilos> ok and willlsusb tell me what port the modem is usint or is that irreleant of where i plug it in?
[19:47] <superfly> Kilos: it's pretty irrelevant
[19:47] <Kilos> because i use one of those 4 in one usb hubs
[19:47] <superfly> oh, no, don't worry about that
[19:47] <Kilos> so must i remove the usb4
[19:47] <superfly> whatever is in the tutorial, use that
[19:48] <Kilos> Modem = /dev/ttyUSB4
[19:48] <Kilos> just like that?
[19:48] <superfly> oh, yeah, use that
[19:48] <Kilos> ok ty
[19:49] <superfly> we can always find out which port it is using, and come back and change that later
[19:50] <Kilos> ok looks like i am at the reboot stage. hopefully i see you from the modem next
[19:51] <Kilos> aw i cant reboot busy copying dvds to external
[19:51] <Kilos> another hour
[19:51] <Kilos> grrr
[19:51] <Kilos> Maaz, coffee on
[19:51]  * Maaz puts the kettle on
[19:55] <Maaz> Coffee's ready for Kilos!
[19:56] <Kilos> Maaz, thank you very much my bot buddy
[19:56] <Maaz> sure thing, Kilos
[20:16] <Kilos> found a way to watch dvds on my pc . used boet's i5 lappy to copy to his external then copied from his external to here
[20:16] <Kilos> his stupid win7 couldnt even see my external or i coulda saved many hours of copying
[20:29] <kodez> good evening
[20:40] <kodez1> to all those who love www.demonoid.me. please note that user account registration is open
[21:57] <Kilos> you still up superfly 
[21:58] <superfly> Kilos: yes
[21:58] <Kilos> when i do lsusb now that id is still as it was
[21:58] <superfly> Kilos: you did everything 100% according to that tutorial?
[21:58] <Kilos> didnt change it to the new id
[21:58] <Kilos> yip i think so
[21:59] <Kilos> but if i go cd /etc/  and then ls
[21:59] <Kilos> i get the old modeswitch.conf still there
[22:01] <Kilos> the old one is usb_modeswitch.conf
[22:02] <Kilos> and there is a usb_modeswitch.d
[22:02] <Kilos> and then the new one  usb-modeswitch-x225s.conf
[22:04] <Kilos> i copied and pasted the info from the tutorial and removed the wind bits in 3 places
[22:04] <superfly> Kilos: you did this too? sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/50-x225s.rules
[22:05] <Kilos> yip. let me go check
[22:06] <Kilos> yessir this is in there
[22:06] <Kilos> SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="1bbb", SYSFS{idProduct}=="f000", RUN+="/usr/sbin/usb_modeswitch -c /etc/usb-modeswitch-x225s.conf"
[22:06] <Kilos> SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="1bbb", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0017", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1bbb product=0x0017"
[22:08] <superfly> hrm
[22:09] <superfly> Kilos: I'm not sure oom, I don't know much more than that - everything looks right to me
[22:10] <Kilos> and i still not sure which port it goes in because i need to remove the sim card to use fone every time
[22:11] <Kilos> i see the modem is an alcatel i will see if there is any info on their site
[22:11] <superfly> Kilos: in a terminal, type in "tail -f /var/log/syslog", press enter a few times to make some blank lines, and then plug the modem in. when the output dies down again, copy and pastebin it so that I can see it
[22:11] <Kilos> ty very much for your help
[22:11] <Kilos> ok
[22:12] <Kilos> i dont want to keep you up superfly 
[22:12] <Kilos> will take a while
[22:12] <superfly> I'm busy with a few other things
[22:12] <Kilos> ok ty i will try hurry

[22:21] <Kilos> http://paste.ubuntu.com/598031/
[22:26] <Kilos> maybe its still looking for STC the service provider, but i dunno where to see that
[22:28] <superfly> Kilos: you don't have your sim card in the modem
[22:30] <Kilos> i did but i will try again
[22:38] <superfly> Maaz: tell Kilos Oh, it's still doing that "Network PIN required" thing - I don't think you'll get past that... I have to go to bed now, good night
