korn788hello im wanting to know if you can share your wireless connection to the enthernet card00:17
phiscribekorn788, its is possible.  i don't excactly know how to do it, other than you make a network bridge.  if you are getting internet via wireless and want to connect another computer via the ethernet ports, you may also need a crossover cable. some ethernet cards can work with out the cross over cable as they are intellegent enough.  others need the crossover cable.00:36
korn788i have the crossover cable00:38
korn788just need to know who to do it00:38
phiscribemaybe this will help.....maybe |  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10861913/how-to-bridge-a-ethernet-adapter-to-a-wireless-adapter-in-linux00:42
Neverminderhello11:37
Neverminderi have question: is it hard for beginner to swich from ubuntu-based OS to opensuse?11:38
bioterroryou do it and tell us how you manage with opensuse11:38
Neverminderoh, bioterror hi :)11:39
Neverminderi'm just not sure...11:39
Neverminderis it hard to install software...11:39
bioterroryum yum11:40
Neverminderim not so expieranced with building packages...11:40
phiscribeNeverminder, opensuse has packa managers just like debian based distro's.  you can use a gui or the command line.  it's like cheech (or was it chong) said. "you know man its like the same but different"12:49
genii-aroundDid Neverminder manage to get back into their box after the chmod on root fs ?15:20
bioterrordunno15:22
bioterrorprobably is installing OpenSuse now ;)15:22
IdleOneWhen I use the mute button on my keyboard it mutes the sound as expected, but when I hit mute again it doesn't unmute. I have to click on the volume control and disable mute that way. How would I make it so the mute button on the keyboard does mute/unmute?17:59
holsteinIdleOne: i was told that was a known bug... happens in xfce too17:59
IdleOneusing Lubuntu 12.1017:59
IdleOneholstein: so, no fix for it yet ?18:00
holsteinIdleOne: i think its complex18:00
IdleOneit isn't anything critical I guess, just annoying18:00
holsteinIdleOne: yup... took me a week to let that one go ;)18:02
Unit193IdleOne: Upgrade?18:03
IdleOneUnit193: yes, started with 11.04 - upgraded my way all the way up to 12.10.18:04
Unit193IdleOne: Does it work to turn up the volume?  Check ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml  and look for XF86AudioMute, try amixer -q sset Master toggle  in terminal too.18:04
IdleOneyes, volume up/down buttons work as expected unless I use the mute button in which case the volume up doesn't unmute either.18:05
IdleOneUnit193: what am I looking for when I find XF86AudioMute ?18:07
Unit193What command it runs.18:08
IdleOneamixer -q sset Master toggle18:08
IdleOneSo that seems right18:08
bioterrorthat's not bad18:09
bioterrorgrab a ibm sk-88 keyboard and Windows 7 :D18:09
Unit193Now when you mute it, does PCM get muted too?  (And thus not get unmuted)18:09
bioterror8815 actually18:09
bioterrorall those quick buttons doesnt work :D18:09
IdleOneXF86AudioRaiseVolume == amixer -q sset Master 3%+ unmute18:09
IdleOnebut it doesn't unmute18:09
IdleOneUnit193: How do i check if PCM is also being muted?18:10
Unit193alsamixer18:10
IdleOneUnit193: yes PCM also gets muted18:10
Unit193bioterror: Can you amixer -q sset Master toggle;amixer -q sset PCM toggle   in openbox config? :---D18:12
bioterrorwat?18:13
bioterrorthat sentence did not make much sense18:13
Unit193Hah, my bad.18:14
IdleOneUnit193: Are you on the road to a fix ? :)18:15
Unit193IdleOne: Try something like the command above, `amixer -q sset Master toggle;amixer -q sset PCM toggle`  rather than just  `amixer -q sset Master toggle`  though I don't know if that'll actually work.18:17
bioterrorit muted my sounds18:17
Unit193(After, run openbox --reconfigure )18:17
Unit193Yeah, takes two hits for unmute...18:20
IdleOnedo I need to sudo openbox --reconfigure ?18:21
Unit193(I don't have one of those keyboards, just a cronjob to mute at night, unmute in the morning on one computer)18:21
Unit193IdleOne: No, process is owned by you.18:21
IdleOnenope, didn't work18:21
IdleOnesame behaviour as before18:23
IdleOnelol I don't know what just happened but my theme just magically changed by itself and now I have no sound18:26
Unit193Open alsamixer to check volumes.18:26
IdleOnenothing is muted18:27
IdleOneall I did was edit the line you suggested, saved and ran openbox --reconfigure ( NO sudo)18:28
IdleOneafter testing the mute button and it dodn't work I edited the file again and put it back to the way it was and again ran openbox --reconfigure18:28
IdleOnedidn't*18:29
IdleOnehahahah, now the mute button on KB works but I have no sound18:31
IdleOnethis is too funny18:31
IdleOneHow would a restart the sound server?18:35
Unit193IdleOne: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture  should have all you need to fix alsa, I assume that's what you use?  (Working on a failing hard drive too, fuuuun)18:45
Unit193Or you could try the windows method. :P18:45
IdleOneeh, I'm thinking a simple reboot will fix this for me18:47
IdleOneI really don't feel like reading 9000 pages of goblygook18:47
