RobloblawI'm trying to get my Netgear WNA3100 usb wireless adapter to work.  I have gone through the steps to install the driver using ndiswrapper and it says the driver is installed and the hardware is present.  However, there is no option to connect to a wireless network in the network manager.  What do I need to do to wireless connections to show up?02:13
Robloblawany help from anybody on my previous question?02:19

ComputerGeniusHello. When I copy a file in Kubuntu, there's a progress bar on the left top corner of my desktop, covering my desktop icons. How do I remove it? (The progress bar appears both there and in the status area, the same thing for new device notifications, but I managed to remove them by right-clicking and saying "remove")18:50
Peace-PavillionComputerGenius: click on the notification18:52
Peace-PavillionComputerGenius: i would use computernoob like nick xD btw here http://wstaw.org/m/2011/11/29/plasma-desktopxx1524.jpg18:53

sfearswith no xorg.conf file anymore... how do I keep my monitor refresh rate @75Hz?19:52
genii-around!xorgconf19:58
ubottuThe /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is deprecated, but sometimes may still be needed to  pass values to specific drivers. Generic xorg.conf generation: http://goo.gl/UQyq0  ATI/AMD ( fglrx driver ) specific: http://goo.gl/3pThV NVidia ( nvidia driver  )specific: http://goo.gl/iprqH man xorg.conf for file structure and syntax.19:58
sfearsgenii-around: do you know why when i set the frequency value in the display properties it resets after reboot?20:01
genii-aroundsfears: Probably because the changes don't stick unless you add them during boot with xrandr or specify them in the xorg.conf20:05

ravhi. i just installed 11.10 on my new laptop. in order for the live USB to work, I had to use the 'acpi=off' option, otherwise the screen would go blank. The installation went through, but now when I start the laptop, the screen goes blank. How can I fix this?20:56
BluesKajrav , at what point in the boot process ?21:02
ravBluesKaj: after the splash screen. I think kubuntu is under there because the caps lock light works, but the screen looks as if it were off21:05
BluesKajcan you get a prompt , alt+ctl+f1 ?21:06
ravno21:07
BluesKajok , try holding the shift key down right after the bios screen to bring up grub , then choose the recovery kernel , and try nano /etc/default/grub at root prompt then find the line qiet splqash and add nomodeset after it but within the quotes save , ctl+o , enter, then ctl +x , then update-grub21:13
BluesKajreboot21:14
BluesKajrav, ^ read above21:14
ravok21:14
genii-aroundIf shifty key doesn't work, try ESC21:16
ravnothing happens by holding shift21:16
genii-aroundrav: Then try the ESC key21:19
ravgenii-around: Esc is my BIOS key21:20
genii-aroundrav: After it finishes with bios and starts to lad, it should also work to get you into the GRUB screen21:21
genii-aroundlad->load21:21
ravi'm in with the live USB21:23
ravi can't run update-grub with the live USB21:30
ravok, it's the *right* shift key21:34
ravit doesnt let me save the changes to the file21:37
genii-aroundWhat change you make is in effect as soon as you exit/boot from the edit21:39
ravnano wont save the changes21:39
genii-aroundrav: When you booted to recovery, did it have a screen where it said something like Remount with Read/Write  as one of the options?21:41
ravi think so21:42
genii-aroundrav: Thats what you need. Otherwise the root is mounted read-only21:44
ravthat worked, thanks21:44

genii-aroundWhat you highlight in the browser is not in html. In firefox though you can do File..Save Page As... then tell it html22:43

JoeSomebodydoes kubuntu like pretty much any printers? which ones are not gonna work?22:47
skierpagegenii-around, I believe you are mistaken. The selection is available in both plain text and as HTML, because you can paste it into an HTML-aware app and get tables, bold, etc. What I need is a clipboard utility that exposes the same content negotiation.22:47

genii-aroundrav: Interesting. I'm reading http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1728526&page=3 which suggests perhaps adding "i915.semaphores=1" to grub might work ( last post there )23:05

genii-aroundrav: amd64 iso should be the correct one, your system is 64bit23:28
ravgenii-around: oh. i though amd didn't like the intel stuff in this laptop23:29
genii-aroundrav: It's just called amd64 because AMD invented the 64 bit instruction set. But they work on Intels as well, although they call theirs specifically EMT6423:30
