| ClientAlive | by chance does anyone know where the settings for configuring a wireless network are in lubuntu? | 03:12 |
| ClientAlive | wow | 03:29 |
| Unit193 | There should be a small icon in the trey. | 03:30 |
| ClientAlive | I installed lxde on top of ubuntu 12.04 server. I have no access to setting to configure my wireless. I found something about nm-applet and network manager but am having trouble installing nm-applet. apt isn't able to locate the packages | 03:31 |
| Unit193 | network-manager-gnome: /usr/bin/nm-applet Ah, so you aren't actually using Lubuntu. | 03:32 |
| ClientAlive | yes, well, sort of. After installing ubuntu server 12.04 I did a apt-get install lxde | 03:34 |
| Unit193 | Yep, you have ubuntu server+lxde. :P | 03:34 |
| ClientAlive | apt can't find "nm-applet" or "nmapplet" I don't get it | 03:35 |
| ClientAlive | :) | 03:35 |
| Unit193 | Yes, I muddled saying network-manager-gnome was the package. | 03:35 |
| ClientAlive | I'm having to stand here with the thing plugged into the cat 5 cable | 03:35 |
| ClientAlive | and I'm googling for how to install it too but not turning up the right thing | 03:36 |
| ClientAlive | I wonder if it's a different (specific to lxde) network-manager package. I installed "network-manager" and thought maybe nm-applet just came with it. The output talks about failing and something about gnome shell dissapearing (gnome shell? that makes no sense on an lxde system) | 03:39 |
| ClientAlive | well I made it back. reboot and now the o/s will not start at all. I happen to have thiat that miserable, stinking, rotten bcm b43 wireless card | 04:05 |
| ClientAlive | I use that computer daily, can't have it be down, and have to get up to go to work in 6 hrs - oh-my-GOD! | 04:06 |
| Unit193 | Well, what do you man exactly by won't start? Any logs or messages? | 04:08 |
| ClientAlive | yes | 04:08 |
| ClientAlive | "b43-phy0 ERROR: firmware file "b43/ucode5.fw" not found | 04:09 |
| ClientAlive | and a url to instructions on installing. The o/s will not boot, pushing the button (hardware button) to turn off wireless and try to reboot with wired connection get the same result. but I don't understand - I thought there was something new these days, that we don't have to do the b43 firmware any longer | 04:10 |
| Unit193 | Well, there's the handy "Additional Drivers" tool that does it. | 04:11 |
| ClientAlive | oh. yeah, I'm familiar with that. Just that I thought there were new drivers (neuveau or something like that?( | 04:12 |
| Unit193 | Try with the boot option: b43.blacklist=yes (Though, that could only work for a livecd, haven't checked that part) | 04:13 |
| ClientAlive | if the o/s won't start, I can't even manually install by downloading to some media and using that to get it on that other computer | 04:13 |
| ClientAlive | how do you pass a boot option? | 04:14 |
| ClientAlive | oh, I could run a live cd and then fix stuff | 04:14 |
| Unit193 | Hold left shift while booting, then press 'e' to edit the menu option.\ | 04:15 |
| Unit193 | May be able to boot older kernel(?) or rescue. | 04:16 |
| ClientAlive | oh, that's cool to know. I think I made my decision though. I'm going to just install over again; and, this time, deal with that miserable wireless card straight away (Id forgotten all about it until this came up) :> | 04:17 |
| Unit193 | You could easily pass that option then install firmware-b43-installer though. | 04:17 |
| ClientAlive | does passing that option remain permanent on succeeding start ups? or is it just a one time thing? | 04:18 |
| Unit193 | One time, but that package should fix the error. How did you try to install the driver before? | 04:19 |
| ClientAlive | in the past, it was a friggin nightmare. None of the standard methods worked. Someone from the forums ended up helping me for two days over the telephone and irc chat (simultaneously). Ultimately, we had to manually install it from source. | 04:21 |
| ClientAlive | not soruce, from a compressed file | 04:21 |
| ClientAlive | I've had other installs after that work fine though (fedora 16, ubuntu 10.04) | 04:21 |
| Unit193 | 03:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) For me it was a plug in CAT5, open jockey (Additional Drivers), install, boom. | 04:23 |
| ClientAlive | yeah. Mines the 4318 revision (sick - I know it by heart) | 04:27 |
| ClientAlive | I'll have to deal w/ it tomorrow. I have to get to bed. Thanks for listening to me gripe and for all your help. I'll prolly reinstall, download additional drivers and go that route. :) | 04:28 |
| ClientAlive | peace out man. You have yourself a good night :) | 04:29 |
