[05:45] <philipballew_> Hey! I think my laptop has bluetooth. but lspci or ls anything actually does not show it. What would be a good idea to do next to look for it and get the kernel to know what to do?
[12:40] <jemoh> Hey everyone, am using ubuntu 10.10 and soon its goin to be obselete because its not being supported anymore how do I switch to 12.04
[12:43] <holstein> jemoh: you can always just back up your data, obtain a 12.04 installation disc, and install
[12:44] <holstein> you can upgrade, but that'll take a while.. you need to go 10.10 to 11.04 to 11.10.to 12.04... i prefer fresh installs personally
[12:44] <jemoh> Ok. and is the 12.04 stable ?
[12:45] <holstein> jemoh: 12.04 is not final yet...
[12:46] <holstein> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule
[12:47] <geirha> If you were running 10.04 instead, you could've upgraded to 12.04 when it's ready.
[12:47] <holstein> also, #ubuntu+1 ...as for its stability, i cant refer to it as "stable" since its still in development
[12:48] <jemoh> ok thanx guyz
[12:48] <geirha> You should really only install it now if you want to help by detecting and reporting bugs.
[12:58]  * Sidewinder1 On 10.04 but am scared to death of Unity. :(
[13:01] <Sidewinder1> Like me, my machine is old, old. 'Tis a Dell Dimension 4550. 1 GB ram, upgraded Video card, I believe 512 MB video ram. Not sure if Unity will even run on it and can't afford a new machine.
[13:01] <geirha> Well, if it doesn't, just switch to xfce or lxde
[13:01] <Sidewinder1> Is there some sort of fall-back option in 12.04?
[13:02] <Sidewinder1> geirha, Yes, I may have to.
[13:42] <holstein> Sidewinder1: dont be scared :) ...maybe XFCE is for you
[13:44] <jemoh> Hi anyone who knows how to run a ZTE MMC modem and linux please help with the installation procedure
[13:44] <Sidewinder1> Yes, I've been looking at XFCE; it's probably what I'll do in 2013 when Lucid is EOL.
