[12:37] <sagaci> have an internode (huawei e1762), i'm currently on the command line, how to go about connecting? what command or protocol should I read up on?
[12:37] <sagaci> so used to just using network-manager, want to know how to do it all over the cli
[12:44] <head_victim> sagaci: never really looked into it, does it show up as an interface? (I've never used a usb wireless modem)
[12:45] <sagaci> it does after I connect it via network manager over on a gnome environment... ppp0

[12:46] <head_victim> :D
[12:48] <sagaci> well I'll try that soon
[12:48] <sagaci> thanks
[12:49] <sagaci> most of the top google searches relates to intrepid
[12:49] <head_victim> Glad to help :)
[12:49] <sagaci> if it works I'll be back here on irssi
[12:58] <head_victim> sagaci: come back to the good gui side! :D
[13:09] <sagaci> ok wish me luck
[13:19] <sagaci> no joy
[13:21] <head_victim> Bummer
[13:21] <head_victim> I'd help more if I had any idea whatsoever
[13:24] <sagaci> i'm using the gui network-manager applet now so I guess it's just finding out its backend
[13:28] <head_victim> Yeah I've played with ethernet but no idea about modem stuff
[13:29] <head_victim> I've always had standalone modems and stand alone routers
[13:30] <sagaci> yeah, compizconfig-settings-manager is pretty comprehensive
[13:36] <head_victim> I'm working on getting my lightscribe burner working
[13:36] <head_victim> I got 4 perfect the next 2 have been coasters :/
[13:40] <sagaci> lightscribe being?
[13:40] <head_victim> Burns a label into cds/dvds
[13:42] <sagaci> ah ok
[13:46] <head_victim> I didn't think it was even possible under linux, found out it works, just not reliably it seems. Either that or my drive is failing
[13:48] <head_victim> Hmm that one came out beautiful. Maybe it was a bad couple of disks or overheating or something
[14:01] <sagaci> what do you use that for, ubuntu cds?
[14:02] <head_victim> I'm actually doing up a slideshow for a funeral.
[14:02] <head_victim> But you can do it for whatever
[14:05] <head_victim> I wouldn't do it for throw away CDs though, it takes 20 minutes to do one
[14:15] <head_victim> Hmm glad I have both DVDRWs as lightscribe drives, if I alternate between the two they work perfect. I think the coasters were overheating issues so giving it a break in between each seems to work ok
[14:22] <sagaci> head_victim, when's the next ubuntu event that we can do something as a LoCo?
[14:23] <head_victim> sagaci: nothing planned to my knowledge just yet, I've asked if anythings in the works though so will let you know if I hear anything.
[14:23] <head_victim> The main page at http://loco.ubuntu.com/ has a section in the lower left where they pop up when decided upon
[14:25] <head_victim> sagaci: http://www.jonobacon.org/2011/05/23/community-team-plans-for-oneiric/ is a bit of a rundown on what should happen at some stage, but I don't think they're set in stone as to when/what just yet
