Tonberryi would not run kubuntu on less than 1gb of ram16:11
Kilos-me neither even though this one is fast16:31
Kilos-some things still open slowly even with 1.5g ram16:31
Kilos-but he also wants to install to his lappy so it should be great there16:32
Kilos-unless thats also only got 512m ram16:35

Kiloshaha18:14
Kiloshi psychicist 18:14
Kilosyou well apart from tired kbmonkey ?18:14
psychicisthi Kilos 18:14

Kilostook long enough18:16
kbmonkeyI am sure, phew18:17
kbmonkeytoo much of work that is for me. 18:17
Kilosyo aquarat 18:21
inetprogood evening18:35
Kiloslo the pro18:36
inetprohello Kilos18:36
Kiloshello inetpro 18:36
Kiloshehe18:36
inetprohave you recovered from the late nights yet?18:36
Kilosyeah i kinda good today ty and you?18:38
inetprotired18:38
Kilosyou do nothing all day how can you be tired18:39
Kilosmake the appies work harder18:39
kbmonkeyKilos, having a nice rooi bos tea18:40
Kilosgood man18:40
Kilosi just gotta still sort one prob here18:40
Kilosunity sees my arab modem only and kde sees the e220 0nly18:40
Kilossigh18:40
kbmonkeysounds like a missing udev rule18:41
Kilosso drive swop means sim change as well18:41
kbmonkeyeish, 18:41
Kilosexplain?18:41
kbmonkeyeach usb device has a model code built into it. when you connect it, the kernel looks in it's little database for known device codes...18:42
Kilosok and then?18:43
kbmonkeylet me see..18:44
Kilosoh if i run lsusb on both it shows them there18:44
Kiloskde even tries to dial out but fails everytime18:45
Kilosbut works perfect with the e22018:45
kbmonkeyon the pc where e220 works run 'dmesg'. then do the same on the other os. compare.18:47
kbmonkeyyou might see the one recognizes it's "zero-cd" a fake cd that has the windows setup files. it swithces over to modem mode.18:48
kbmonkeybut sometimes it won't switch and gets stuck on zero-cd mode18:48
kbmonkeyinstalling usb-modeswitch helps with this18:49
Kilosi have that18:49
Kilosanyway dont worry18:50
Kilosi will try putting the e220 in the router and getting connected that way18:51
kbmonkey...18:51
kbmonkey(net down?)18:51
Kilosim sure both will accept that18:51
kbmonkeyeish18:51
Kilosrouter rsting because i was getting timeouts then found it was the e220 not the router18:52
Kilosso flash again and upgraded first to vmc that voda then then flashed and put mobile partner and it didnt timeout today18:53
Kiloseish eish eish18:54
kbmonkeyit's modem makers not helping to keep their device codes up to date with our nice operating system :(18:54
Kilosi see 13.10 only supported till dec this year18:54
Kilosthat sucks18:54
KilosRaring Ringtail is not an LTS (Long Term Support) release. It will be supported with security updates for both the desktop and server versions until December 2013.18:54
kbmonkeysudo usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 1003 -V 0x12d1 -P 1003 -R18:55
kbmonkeyand remove the modem and connect again.18:55
Kilosty i will save that18:55
kbmonkeythat only works until reboot18:55
Kilosoh you mean for the one that dont see the e22018:55
kbmonkeythose are the numbers that need to be added to the device database I spoke of earlier :)18:55
kbmonkeyyes, for that one18:56
Kilosoh18:56
Kilosthats only on 12.0418:56
kbmonkeyyou want the other way around?18:56
Kilosill save that onna stick18:56
Kiloswhat you mean?18:56
kbmonkeythose are the same numbers you see in "lsusb" by the way18:56
kbmonkey0x12d1 and 100318:57
Kilosoh ya 18:57
Kilosvendor and product18:57
kbmonkeyso you can try the other modem on 13.?? if you run lsusb and replace those numbers accordingly (gulp)18:58
Kilosthe other modem has different numbers18:58
kbmonkeyI hope that helps you Kilos - sorry if that command looks very scary. 18:59
Kilos0000 was the product18:59
Kilosty kbmonkey thats lekker18:59
Kilosits not serious, im not offline just need sim swop18:59
Kiloshaha18:59
kbmonkeyit tells your computer to see the usb device as a modem. like an order.18:59
Kilosaha19:00
Kiloseven if the modem shows different numbers in lsusb?19:00
Kilossjoe19:00
kbmonkeyyes19:00
kbmonkeyuse the number in lsusb if you can19:01
kbmonkeyalso try it before and after connecting the modem too. it might need the modem connected to run.19:01
kbmonkeythen remove and reconnect modem19:01
kbmonkeylike tuning spark plugs. engine must be running to tune it. haha.19:02
kbmonkey..or not?19:02
Kilosive tried the numbers in the modem but didnt reconnect it19:02
kbmonkeymaybe I electrocute myself 19:02
Kilosmaybe thats where i went wrong19:02
Kiloshahaha19:02
Kilosyou dont tune spark plugs man19:02
kbmonkey"no switching method given. Resetting usb device. Ok, device was reset. Run lsusb to note any changes. Bye."?19:03
Kiloswhere you read that?19:03
kbmonkeyhttp://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php/386769-Vodacom-E220-Usb-Modem-on-Ubuntu-11-10?p=7333553&viewfull=1#post733355319:04
