superflyI don't understand why people are so worried about cellphones, but not worried about computer monitors and the sun, both of which give out significantly more radiation than cellphones05:53

WolfeyesGood day everyone.11:38
Kiloshi Wolfeyes 11:39
WolfeyesWhere can I download the modem-manager archive package "for Kubuntu Natty", (from windows o/s, and save it to flash drive) and then install it when I reboot in ubuntu please? Because I cannot connect with Kubuntu right now. I tried finding it on the install disk but not the archive package. Also having difficulty finding it on the forums. Anyone...!11:42
WolfeyesHeya Kilos 11:42
Wolfeyesheya N8Wulf 11:43
confluencyWolfeyes: you should be able to find it on one of the mirror servers in your browser.11:44
confluencyDo you mean modemmanager?11:44
WolfeyesYes but I cannot conect to the server via kubuntu confluency .11:45
confluencyYes, I know.  You can download the package in your browser and save it.11:45
tumbleweedhowever, you may find that it depends on other packages that you'l need too11:45
confluencyI'm trying to find a link; you can start by googling modemmanager package natty.11:46
confluencyWhat architecture?11:46
WolfeyesArchitechture?11:47
tumbleweedthe quickest way is to find an internet connection that you can use, and use your package manager11:47
tumbleweedWolfeyes: i386 or amd64 (i.e. 32 or 64 bit)11:47
Wolfeyesi38611:47
confluencyWolfeyes: here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/en/natty/modemmanager11:47
Wolfeyesty confluency  let me see what I can get right. Thank you.11:47
confluencyIn the download section, follow the link to the architecture (1386).11:48
confluency*i38611:48
WolfeyesOk.11:48
confluencyCheck to see if you have all those dependencies installed.11:48
WolfeyesI will do that, be back as fast as possible.11:48
superflymodemmanager should be installed by default in Kubuntu12:03
superflyPackage: modemmanager; New: yes; State: installed; Automatically installed: yes12:04
superflyWolfeyes: ^^12:05
wolfeyesWhat a mission...15:34
wolfeyesBut I am connected. Now to get what I need.15:34
wolfeyesTy confluency, that didn't work I needed to many extra files above what was asked and the system just wanted to connect to the net constantly. So I got hold of saki3g and managed to connect, but battled a bit as I forgot I had to activate the "Permissions" , "executable file" in order to get it working. But I am busy getting what I need right now, thank you.15:39
* inetpro wants to be brave and upgrade Hardy LTS server to Lucid 15:48
inetpronot sure whether it's such a good idea15:49
inetproanyway, if I vanish from here you should know that the quassel upgrade failed15:50
wolfeyesLol good luck inetpro15:51
inetprowolfeyes: thanks, I really need that15:51
wolfeyesSo did I 20mins ago lol. 15:52
inetprowolfeyes: the only diff here is that it is also a production system15:52
tumbleweedwolfeyes: superfly had a good point, modemmanager should be installed by default, I'm suprised you didn't have it15:53
wolfeyesI know that feeling too, happened to me when I first learnt about Karmic.15:53
* inetpro is just worried about one thing 15:54
inetprothe reboot process at the end of the upgrade process 15:54
* inetpro will have to drive all the way to the remote server farm if it fails to boot15:55
wolfeyesSorry tumbleweed I never saw what superfly said, I think I left to early. And I think it was the networkmanager not modem manager (also installed by default) but I was fooling around trying to make it work because it stopped after updates.  I think I removed it,lol. But hey that's how beginers learn. Come a long way from when I started with Karmic.15:55
tumbleweedheh, good to hear :)15:56
tumbleweedyeah, one learns through mistakes15:57
wolfeyesNodz.15:58
wolfeyes<--- but still very much a beginner.15:58
wolfeyessuperfly: do you use quassel as a client to connect to mxit as well? or Pidgin?15:59
wolfeyesMaybe kopete....16:01
* wolfeyes looks aorund some more.16:01
superflywolfeyes: quassel is an IRC client16:02
superflyI don't connect to mxit16:02
superflyI don't know if Kopete has a plugin to connect to mxit16:03
wolfeyesOk thank you. I am busy looking for it.16:03
