| Damianos | Hello Pezheds | 03:31 |
| Pezhedz | is anyone gracious enough to help step me through troubleshooting my wireless setup? | 03:31 |
| Pezhedz | I've searched and searched and tried everything with no success on the forums. :( | 03:31 |
| Damianos | I'll try | 03:31 |
| Pezhedz | yay! Thank you! | 03:32 |
| Damianos | what exactly is the problem? | 03:32 |
| Pezhedz | I have an hpDV2700 Broadcom 4311 | 03:32 |
| Pezhedz | and have not had the wireless card recognized. | 03:33 |
| Damianos | so it's not showing up in network manager? | 03:33 |
| Pezhedz | no | 03:33 |
| Damianos | what about if you do a ifconfig? | 03:34 |
| Pezhedz | iwconfig only displays lo and eth0 | 03:34 |
| Pezhedz | same with ifconfig (with additional info) | 03:35 |
| Damianos | don't know what else to do...the only time I've ever had a NIC not detected was when I first started tinkering with Linux and a reinstall fixed it | 03:39 |
| Damianos | sorry I couldn't be of help | 03:39 |
| Damianos | I wonder if manually adding it to /etc/network/interfaces would do anything | 03:40 |
| Pezhedz | no worries. i figured I'd try the IRC channels to see if anyone ran into the same sort of trouble | 03:40 |
| Pezhedz | how do I do that? | 03:40 |
| Pezhedz | (manually add it to /etc/network/interfaces ?) | 03:41 |
| Damianos | well before network manager came onto the scene network interfaces used to be configured using the file /etc/network/interfaces | 03:41 |
| Damianos | it should be commented with instructions on how to add an interface | 03:42 |
| Pezhedz | ah ok | 03:44 |
| Pezhedz | I think i stumbled upon that. I'll look at that again. | 03:44 |
| Pezhedz | thanks for your time, Damianos. | 03:44 |
| Damianos | lspci | 03:47 |
| Damianos | dammit he left | 03:47 |
