[16:48] only for wired and wireless no 3g [16:49] oh that sucks :p maybe gnome 2 has no 3g support? [16:50] the guy on mate says it should show in network connections [16:54] o.O [16:55] Kilos: ask him where? :) [16:55] #mate [17:02] sposed to be in preferences-network connections [17:03] :s [17:04] I don't know, I admit :| [17:04] http://www.thebuzzmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/funny-mouse-picture-computer-mouse.jpg :) [17:04] maybe it part of the prob that 12.04 has been giving me with mobile broadband from the beginning [17:05] Kilos: it should appear like it should in Gnome [17:05] thought so Squirm but i see nothing at all mentioning mobile broadband [17:07] does your pc pick it up? [17:07] when here on unity yes but when going to mate no [17:07] on the cli, type lsusb [17:08] will try when im back on mate [17:08] ok [17:08] and also have a look in dmesg [17:08] if its same as gnome2 then it must be there [17:08] bad install or something [17:15] do you have usb-modeswitch installed? most 3g modems need it [17:17] yip tumbleweed [17:17] i remembered that prob from 9.10 days [17:18] nm should do the rest [17:18] the modem works here on 12.04 but wont connect automatically [17:19] ya it used to before but not with 12.04 [17:19] now i manually start it everytime [17:19] that enable broadband needs to be manually done every time [17:22] known upstream nm bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=659228 [17:22] i go see ty [17:25] oh they havent fixed it yet [17:26] hi charlvn [17:27] tumbleweed, if i go to mate is that being a traitor to ubuntu? [17:27] heh [17:28] it's being as traitorous to ubuntu, as using ubuntu is to debian [17:28] although, ubuntu contributes back to debian. AFAIK, mint doesn't [17:28] oh so its fine then [17:28] i have mate installed on 12.04 [17:29] not mint [17:29] mate isn't in ubuntu [17:29] lol its even in my synaptic now [17:29] from a PPA? [17:29] ya [17:30] I don't have high hopes for the future of MATE. it seems a bit of a dead-end. But it seems to be fairly popular atm [17:31] its fast here [17:31] with same panels as maverick [17:33] evening all [17:33] hi magespawn [17:34] found it here tumbleweed http://is.gd/zxSUK7 [17:34] all good magespawn ? [17:35] yup and you Kilos? [17:35] yup ty. trying to get mate going on 12.04 [17:35] why? [17:36] what is mate? like unity or gnome? [17:36] looks good and its fast but just gotta find why nm does show mobile broadband [17:36] gnome2 fork [17:36] they still developing it further i see [17:37] read a bit by #mate [17:38] unity is slow using the dash all the time and switching desktops is a pain [17:38] looks just like maverick with a different colour [17:39] i see they can even use it on fedora [17:39] i see just read the wiki [17:59] gotta love xkcd http://xkcd.com/851/ [18:31] bye :p [19:25] night guys. sleep tight [20:26] good night all [21:58] Maaz: tell kbmonkey Nice one on the Internet License [21:58] superfly: Righto, I'll tell kbmonkey on freenode [22:02] hmm, fp === Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za [22:52] lo Trixar_za [22:53] lo Squirm [22:54] Shouldn't you be sleeping?
