[22:14] <Jez> Hello.
[22:16] <Jez> Having fun trying to compile drivers.  Auto-apt has not been very helpful so far.
[22:17] <Jez> It cannot seem to actually install the packages it finds.
[22:18] <Unit193> Not sure the program does what you think it does, but have you checked software-properties-gtk for "Additional Drivers"?  What card do you have?
[22:23] <Jez> The on board wireless card is Broadcom 4011.
[22:23] <Jez> I haven't looked at the Sound Card yet.
[22:26] <Unit193> Not seen the 4011 at all, mostly been 43xx ones.  You have the kernel headers, you'll at least need those.
[22:28] <kristian-aalborg> cheers
[22:28] <kristian-aalborg> holstein, hi
[22:28] <kristian-aalborg> I've been away from messing around with Ubuntu that I can't remember how to check if a piece of hardware is supported by a given version
[22:30] <Unit193> Depends on the hardware, but I generally find google helpful.  That will normally link to askubuntu or a forum post.
[22:30] <Unit193> !friendly
[22:30] <Unit193> Bah...
[22:31] <Unit193> http://friendly.ubuntu.com, anyway...
[22:33] <Jez> Sorry, double checking my PCI list.
[22:34] <Jez> I'll check that out, thank you.  Having looked at the list, it's a 4311, not 4011.  Doh.
[22:35] <Jez> Got the wl driver tarball from the broadcom website, unwrapped it, but can't make the makefile because I don't have the asm/system.h file.
[22:35] <Jez> I understand auto-apt finds the packages it's and I thought it could install one of them.
[22:36] <Jez> But that seems to an incorrect think.  Anyway, I shall check that link.
[22:39] <kristian-aalborg> hi Unit193
[22:39] <kristian-aalborg> it's the infamous Atom N2600/GMA3600 Cedarview chip
[22:40] <Unit193> !bcm | Jez Not too hard, normally.
[22:40] <Unit193> I have one of those.
[22:45] <Jez> Is there a way to run the make command using the GUI?
[22:46] <Jez> The Terminal cannot resolve the wget command for the driver tarball on launchpad. :(
[22:46] <Unit193> Just install firmware-b43-installer ?
[22:46] <Jez> Did that, mounted it and it didn't seem to work.  Then I listed my cards in the network tool, I think it was.
[22:47] <Jez> And it said it used the wl driver.
[22:47] <Jez> Which is what I've been trying to compile all weekend and running to the missing header file problem.
[22:56] <Jez> I'm using an external Asus RT2500 instead, but the signal keeps dropping.  So I have to disable it and then turn it back to reconnect.
[22:56] <Jez> Which is annoying.
[23:02] <Jez_> Like that.
[23:11] <Jez__> Good night folks.
