[04:35] any suggestion for cool icon theme? [04:59] bodhizazen: welcome [05:00] 'lo stlsaint [05:00] http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/a-5-minute-guide-to-fluxbox/ [05:00] how are you these days ? [05:02] stlsaint, I have been playing with KVM and spice, it is very nice [05:03] spice is basically a VNC server, but it is very fast and does copy-paste from guest to host as well as sound [05:04] bodhizazen: great time i could use a link like that [05:04] fluxbox [05:05] bodhizazen: been getting more and more into packaging [05:05] Ah packaging =) [05:05] bodhizazen: yep yep [05:05] can be fun (sometimes) [05:06] bodhizazen: been testing out parallels virtual machine manager instead of vbox too, seems nice, zenix runs flawlessly in it [05:06] packaging is fun with small / straight forward packages, but sometimes frustrating with large complex packages [05:07] good to hear you have not had a problem with Zenix, nice little OS =) [05:07] How do you like parallels ? [05:08] bodhizazen: i enjoy it, its still in beta testing stage so a few bugs but some nice options and the typical config for a vm is very nice [05:09] I have heard nice things about it [05:10] yep pretty niffty [05:11] bodhizazen: my lxc plans have been halted due to inability to bridge wireless card [05:11] bodhizazen: a lxc dev said it was possible and even had a blog posting on it but i never got it working [05:12] bridging LXC guests ? [05:12] im actually able to run kvm on my laptop, (unless same requirement for networking as lxc of bridge wireless card)? [05:12] bodhizazen: bridging network to containers yes, i was unable to get my wireless card to bridge [05:13] bodhizazen: had a rude run in with fedora 15 as well [05:13] stlsaint, http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/bridge-wireless-cards/ [05:13] bodhizazen: spent two days updating/downlading packages thinking i could create a template in parallels of my fedora vm just to realize that yum clears the cache on a timer [05:13] fedora 15 has more then it's share of bugs [05:14] bodhizazen: oh nice link, if that works for me i am golden!!!!! [05:15] bodhizazen: my biggest problem is that im on a WAN, i dont control the router nor ip address given to me [05:15] stlsaint, that link on wireless should work with lxc guests, watch the route command [05:16] bodhizazen: yea fedora machine borked on me and when i tried to recover the rpms i seen that they had all been dumped, even a upstream redhat dev said that was stupid for fedora to do that [05:16] On your guests, assign them a static ip [05:18] bodhizazen: oh ok [05:18] http://blogs.nature.com/ud725242a/lolcats.jpg [05:19] stlsaint, typically if you assign your guests a high ip it will work, use something like 192.168.0.200 [05:23] bodhizazen: lol, there are about 15,000 personnel on my entire post [05:24] Well, then use 192.168.0.15001 [05:24] =) [05:24] lol annnddd roger [05:35] night stlsaint , good luck w/ your wireless [13:11] Hello === zmijunkie_ is now known as zmijunkie [13:27] AmberJ: hello [13:27] is there a k/b shortcut for shutting down? [13:28] hmm, dunno [13:29] sudo halt [13:29] :D [13:29] you coul make an executable i guess, that would shut you down if you click it. [13:29] with policykit that should be possible [13:30] so if you dig that command from the shutdown buttons menu [13:30] you can bind it to openbox :D [13:34] KM0201: how do you go from k/b shortcut to clicking? [13:35] pmatulis: i was saying i didn't know how to make a kb shortcut, but had a pretty good idea how to make an executable to click. [13:36] bioterror: i don't want to use my mouse at all, i try to avoid it as much as possible. it disgusts me [13:36] haha [13:36] bioterror: sorry, that was for KM0201 [13:36] pmatulis, dwm, ion, wmfs, what ever [13:36] choose one :D [13:37] pmatulis, try xbindkeys. [13:38] I used it once to bind my keyboard multimedia keys to their intended functions in dwm....but xbindkeys can be used to bind any keyboard shortcut to any command.. [13:40] AmberJ: interesting. i'm using kupfer, i might be able to shimmy it to powerdown my 'puter === JasonOO is now known as JasonO === JasonO is now known as Guest30760 [20:12] Hi. [20:12] Can anyone here help with a wireless question? [20:12] Can't figure out my BSSID or my cloned mac address. [20:13] Or how to connect to the wireless once I add it... =/ [20:17] CodyThibault: are you not seeing networks in your area?.. your wireless device may not be working under linux [20:17] I don't see anything, [20:18] but my other laptop (ubuntu) is working fine. [20:18] down beside the Clock... you should see an applet.. (beside the sound icon)... [20:18] left click it, do you see any wireless networks? [20:22] CodyThibault: ? [20:22] Sorry, no. [20:22] I see the icon, click.... Nada. My wired connection is there, but no wireless. [20:23] I tried opening package manager, and searching for bw43cutter, like one article advised, but found no results. [20:23] ok, ... probably thought of this i imagine.. but is your wireless broadcasting, and if it's not, are there usually networks in your area that are broadcasting [20:23] which broadcom do you have? [20:23] And I'm not sure if it's different, but the only articles I can really fine are for Ubuntu, not Lubuntu. [20:23] it's not different [20:24] which broadcom wireless device do you have? [20:24] My wireless is broadcasting fine, the 2 other laptops in the house are running fine. [20:24] broadcom? I am SO new to this it isn't even funny. >.< I have a Westell 7500 [20:24] ok... some people don't broadcast their ESSID, so if it's not broadcasting, that woudl explain why you can't see it. [20:24] My modem, I mean... [20:24] well then why are you looking at installing broadcom drivers... [20:25] *confused... lost* [20:25] *b43cutter is for broadcom devices.. [20:25] do this.. open a terminal [20:25] mmhmm? [20:25] hang on. [20:26] TYT. and thank you! [20:26] that westell, is that one of those cable/router combo things, and you're hooked to it via USB? [20:26] It's a wireless modem, not router, DSL, and hooked via ethernet. [20:26] ok. [20:26] It's bamn-drand new. [20:26] and you're trying to use the internal wireless device on your computer, right? [20:27] i don't care about the router... [20:27] Mmhmm. *nod* [20:27] ok [20:27] in a terminal, type "lspci" no quotes, and hit enter.. it's gonna spit out a ton of stuff... don't paste it all here... find your wireless device, and copy/paste it here [20:28] How do I tell which one is my wireless device? >_< [20:29] read the line, it will say something like this... 06:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) [20:29] although maybe a different device [20:29] 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01) [20:29] 08:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8132 Fast Ethernet (rev c0) [20:29] That's the closest thing I can find to that.... >_< [20:29] that looks like your wired controller [20:30] the broadcom... it's an lp-phy... to my knowledge, you'll have no luck getting that to work w/ Ubuntu [20:30] It worked fine previous to Lubuntu install. [20:30] i've saw some walkthroughs getting them to work, but have never had any success [20:30] Worked out of the box with Ubuntu. [20:30] w/ Ubuntu? [20:30] hmm, surprising.. hang out in the ubuntu channel, there's always complaints about that device. [20:31] That's why I can't figure it out; never had to do anything with my last distro. [20:31] what was your last distro. [20:31] Ubuntu 11.04 [20:31] Switching to Lubuntu because Ubuntu was too large... was running very slow and PC was overheating. [20:31] is th emachine wired to the internet right now? [20:32] Yes. [20:32] ok, try this. [20:32] I'm talking to you on it. :P It'd have to be what with no wireless. Lol. [20:32] open synaptic package manager [20:32] i thought you might be on a different machine [20:32] Haha. :) [20:32] Opened. [20:32] do a search for "b43" [20:32] And again, thank you SO much for you help. My college life depends on it. [20:32] lol [20:33] well, hiopefully you still have windows to fall back on. [20:33] *shakes head* [20:33] did you get the results for b43? [20:33] but I can use Ubuntu. [20:33] yes. [20:33] ok [20:33] Got 4 results. [20:33] you should see one called "firmare-b43-lpphy-installer" [20:34] Mmhmm. [20:34] let it install [20:34] It says mark for isntallation, [20:34] not actually install... [20:35] ok [20:35] mark for installation [20:35] then it will ask you to mark some dependencies most likely [20:35] click mark [20:35] then clcik apply at the top [20:36] Installing. [20:36] ok [20:36] !bug 651010 [20:36] Launchpad bug 651010 in b43-fwcutter (Ubuntu) "package firmware-b43-installer 4.150.10.5-4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/651010 [20:36] that's the bug that's causing your problem, in case your interested [20:37] *gets flyswatter....* [20:37] Restricted drivers available in top right... [20:37] ok [20:37] click that [20:37] and i think it's gonna ask you to enable the b43 driver [20:38] right? [20:42] CodyThibault: did you get it to work? [20:42] .. [20:43] that douche better come back and say whether it worked or not. [21:40] silverarrow, got your aeropress? [22:13] hey guysszzsz [22:15] my internet on lubuntu seems to be limited, i have 17mbps on speedtest with all my other computers (wired & wireless) but with this one (wired) i am only getting 3-4mbps on speed tests [22:15] ?:[ [22:16] hmm [22:17] but at least it [22:17] it's working now [22:17] * LubuntuPowered lubuntuinternet [22:17] ;] [22:17] most odd, are you on wired or wireless on that system? [22:17] but it would be nicer to have full speed [22:17] wired [22:18] the drivers etc are in the kernel, lubuntu has no control over them. I am puzzled as to why you would ave an issue with lubuntu that is not in the rest of the family. [22:19] i seem to be having all the weird problems that no one else have heard of [22:21] are you sure your network isn't just currently having problems? [22:21] cuzs htat really doesn't make much sense to me [22:24] well my last problem didn't make much sense either [22:24] the solution to it was even weirder
