darklord__ | hello. anyone have experience on how to correctly configure a broadcom chipset wnda3100v2 in ubuntu? | 00:29 |
---|---|---|
bones__ | @dark | 00:30 |
bones__ | I do a little, depending on what you're needing it for | 00:30 |
bones__ | I'm assuming just basic wifi access? | 00:30 |
darklord__ | well, i'm hoping to use the dual band for packet injection, eventually | 00:30 |
bones__ | Yeah I figured as much | 00:31 |
bones__ | broadcom chipsets are finniky at best | 00:31 |
bones__ | I'll give a quick check to see the compatability for you | 00:31 |
bones__ | one sec | 00:31 |
darklord__ | i have kali on a usb and was able to get it- after a day or so of searching- configured for an hour or so, but it's not connected anymore. | 00:31 |
bones__ | is it interna or external? | 00:32 |
darklord__ | external- i have an internal that i was able to wlan0 down to switch | 00:32 |
bones__ | you shouldn't have to down any other chips | 00:33 |
bones__ | you can actually run both at the same time doing different things | 00:33 |
darklord__ | it would be nice not to have to do so | 00:33 |
bones__ | they don't generally interfere with each other that I've experienced | 00:33 |
bones__ | I have a broadcom that I use to start up and just keep dumps | 00:33 |
bones__ | then have an atheros I have doing all the work | 00:34 |
darklord__ | well, i've got windows 7 setup on the desktop in my room, but run most of my virtual machines such as whonix, tails, kali, and ubuntu from my laptop | 00:34 |
bones__ | you do those all on live iso's? | 00:35 |
darklord__ | and that's why i need the wifi card to setup on ubuntu and kali- so that i can keep my virtual machines in my encrypted partitions within a FDE setup | 00:35 |
bones__ | or have them all strapped? | 00:35 |
darklord__ | no, ubuntu 13.10 is my main o.s.- the rest are live or virtual. | 00:36 |
darklord__ | what's strapped? | 00:36 |
bones__ | I mean all perma installed | 00:36 |
darklord__ | just ubuntu | 00:36 |
darklord__ | but i keep the entire drive encrypted. bios password is on, bootloader is encrypted as well, and i have truecrypt partitions for encryption as well | 00:38 |
bones__ | just missing the magnet blocks under your seat | 00:38 |
bones__ | yeah. | 00:38 |
bones__ | This is what I thought | 00:38 |
bones__ | that chipset is finiky as is | 00:39 |
bones__ | you'd be able to get it to function but I would doubt ever getting it to inject | 00:39 |
bones__ | but thats just first glance | 00:40 |
bones__ | there is a chance | 00:40 |
bones__ | I doubt injection but basic working | 00:40 |
bones__ | do you see it listed in Ubuntu when you call for the usb inputs? | 00:40 |
darklord__ | lsusb? | 00:42 |
darklord__ | yeah, it shows up | 00:42 |
bones__ | is it the g version or the g/n version? | 00:44 |
bones__ | ! I mean, N, or G/N | 00:45 |
ubottu | bones__: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:45 |
darklord__ | i'll still use it rather than return it, regardless, given that it's useful on my desktop windows workstation. i was just hoping there was a way to do it. i've tried the wine installation of the wnda drivers, but it proceeded to give me an error. on a note, though, the one time that i was able to get it to work (as indicated by both an addional option in the network configuration menu as well as an orange indicator light from the | 00:45 |
darklord__ | wifi adapter)- i was able to do so through the command terminal | 00:45 |
darklord__ | it's a/b/g/n | 00:45 |
bones__ | you can try installing the ndiswrapper for the bcm43, that is your best bet, I'll post a link for you | 00:46 |
bones__ | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM4311_rev_01_(ndiswrapper) | 00:46 |
bones__ | but then even after doing this you're still just going to have managed to have a broadcom fuinction mosting into monitoring mode mostly, but not able to inject | 00:46 |
darklord__ | it's on the 2.4 GHz b/g/n/ bands and on the a/n bands for 5 GHz | 00:46 |
bones__ | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 00:47 |
bones__ | thats a list of the drivers best suited to use | 00:48 |
bones__ | I'd had figured Kali would have had some support for broadcoms though | 00:48 |
darklord__ | i would assume it does- and it may be that it was kali from which i was able to get it configured. honestly, it was a few weeks ago and i've been going through so many different o.s. that i don't remember | 00:48 |
bones__ | I always just try to stay clear of broadcoms | 00:50 |
bones__ | !list | 00:50 |
ubottu | bones__: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». | 00:50 |
bones__ | heh | 00:50 |
darklord__ | what's the absolute top on the line go-to wireless answer for linux with packet injection and great range? | 00:50 |
bones__ | I'll give you the link | 00:51 |
bones__ | one sec | 00:51 |
darklord__ | thanks for your help, bones | 00:51 |
bones__ | http://www.amazon.ca/Alfa-AWUS036H-802-11b-Wireless-Network/dp/B0045C6MGA this is a cheaper version | 00:52 |
bones__ | it's like 30$ | 00:52 |
bones__ | but if you just look into these type of things | 00:52 |
bones__ | they can get better | 00:53 |
bones__ | and read for blocks | 00:53 |
bones__ | you could up it to 2000mw but, that was a year or so ago, I'm not possitive what the best is now. | 00:54 |
bones__ | but, I know those never let you down if you're moving on from a netgear n600 | 00:54 |
darklord__ | so alfa in general? should i just get one with a higher model number? and let me ask you this: i've got 16 Gb ram on my 2.20 GHz i7 and run the whonix workstation and gateway with roughly 5 or 6 Gig of ram each, but would it be better to allocate for ram to the workstation and less to the gateway as it servers only as the router? | 00:58 |
bones__ | alfa in general yeah. I'm sure there's better things out there now. Especially how the markets switching to coin minners now too. | 01:01 |
bones__ | and I'd figured if you're just routing to your own things. unless you're needing a lot of cash overflow then less is more really | 01:02 |
bones__ | workstations always take more resources | 01:02 |
bones__ | but, tbh, you might be able to answer that better than I would | 01:02 |
darklord__ | i allocate more towards the workstation now and it's worked fine either way. | 01:08 |
bones__ | so you just doing this for fun? | 01:09 |
darklord__ | just for learning purposes, yes- i've recently made the transition from windows to linux a few months ago. | 01:11 |
darklord__ | but i've dedicated a fair amount of time to it since getting introduced. | 01:12 |
darklord__ | i think that the point at which one becomes what could be considered addicted is when they're searching all over the internet for source code | 01:14 |
bones__ | darklord: I liked when I thought one day after I switched and wanted to get a windows OS back onto my netbook in a dual boot situation but needed to do it over the net, and just thought about how much of a pain in the ass it would be | 01:28 |
bones__ | and laughed | 01:28 |

yossarianuk | hi -can anyone recommend an alternative to k9copy (no longer availiable) | 09:25 |
valorie | k3b will do it, right? | 09:28 |
hewhomust | yes | 09:29 |
yossarianuk | k9copy used to do what dvdshrink+dvd decrypter on winblows used to... | 09:29 |
yossarianuk | i.e can k3b shink also ? | 09:30 |
valorie | that I don't know | 09:30 |
yossarianuk | only one way of finding aboout I guess. | 09:31 |
yossarianuk | thanks | 09:31 |
valorie | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2180393 | 09:31 |
valorie | has some more ideas | 09:31 |
valorie | including the cli one, xdvdshrink | 09:32 |
=== zegenie_ is now known as zegenie | ||
yossarianuk | ah - looks like there is no software that does the same (aloone) | 09:35 |
yossarianuk | shame... | 09:35 |
valorie | well, maybe you should port over k9copy! | 09:40 |
valorie | find some folks to work with you, and Just Do It | 09:41 |
yossarianuk | valorie: i.e the sorce exists for the old version? | 09:43 |
valorie | yes, of course | 09:43 |
yossarianuk | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/k9copy | 09:43 |
valorie | you might have to dig for it in svn, but it is there | 09:43 |
valorie | ok, still in launchpad | 09:44 |
valorie | now, that might be patched, so it's worth looking at svn in the KDE repo | 09:44 |
valorie | it probably was never moved to git | 09:44 |
excognac | anybody tried ever copy dvds with k3b? cos it kinda sucks. | 10:17 |

ronaldsmazitis | hello | 13:32 |
LucidGuy | and I'm back | 14:09 |
* LucidGuy FIXED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 14:27 | |
LucidGuy | It only took me 3 hours | 14:28 |
BluesKaj | ok LucidGuy, care to share your fix method? | 15:32 |
BluesKaj | xorg-edgers? | 15:33 |
=== freeflying is now known as freeflying_away | ||
LucidGuy | BluesKaj, Ok.. I removed all nvidia drivers via dpkg/purge. I then manually deleted an nvidiafb.ko file. I then installed the nvidia-331 package via apt-get. Now the only real difference from my previous attempts was deleting that nvidiafb.ko file (restarted immediately after). A colleague of mine mentioned hes heard a few people recently complaining about a similiar issue after performing updates. So... was it my efforts? Or did Ub | 15:55 |
LucidGuy | untu/maintainers fix the package? | 15:55 |
LucidGuy | Ohhh .. I also installed the nvidia-331 package with the --install-suggested option, which caused the nvidia-331-uvm package to be installed also | 15:57 |
LucidGuy | BluesKaj, thoughts? | 15:59 |
BluesKaj | LucidGuy, that's new to me, could be your gpu isn't quite compatible without the uvm package, because I don't seem to need it with the geforce 8400gs | 16:04 |
BluesKaj | let me check my other pc | 16:05 |
BluesKaj | ok, neither of my desktops require the uvm package | 16:07 |
BluesKaj | both using 8400gs | 16:08 |
BluesKaj | basic entry level pci cards tho, not fancy like yours, LucidGuy | 16:09 |
LucidGuy | I'm not suggesting that addtional package resolved my issue, but I noticed the uvm package was a "suggested" with the nvidia-331 package | 16:10 |
LucidGuy | My kernel driver in use is "nvidia" .. | 16:11 |
LucidGuy | nvidia-settings simply says version 331.20.. | 16:12 |
LucidGuy | I wish I knew where that nvidiafb.ko module came from? And I bet by removing it and restarting allowed for my install to succeed. | 16:13 |
dougl | morning BluesKaj | 16:14 |
dougl | LucidGuy, what was your issue you fixed? | 16:14 |
BluesKaj | 'Morning dougl | 16:14 |
LucidGuy | dougl, Performed a simple apt-get dist-upgrade and destroyed my systems ability to use the nvidia drivers | 16:15 |
dougl | LucidGuy, on what 13.10 | 16:16 |
LucidGuy | dougl, 12.04 | 16:16 |
dougl | oh | 16:16 |
LucidGuy | I stick to LTS versions | 16:16 |
LucidGuy | I'll be deploying 12.04 on all my systems in this office in the next 2-3 months | 16:17 |
dougl | I did update on my 14.04 and my effects quit working was wondering if anyone else's did...thot LucidGuy already had fix... | 16:18 |
LucidGuy | I know, 14.04 is not far, but I prefer stability over everything else. We are currently running 10.04 on all systems still. | 16:18 |
dougl | 12.04 why notr ... | 16:18 |
dougl | gotcha | 16:18 |
LucidGuy | dougl, are you sure your still using your nvidia drivers? | 16:18 |
dougl | LucidGuy, I think so not sure how to change to neuvow dont know how to spell it either lol | 16:19 |
LucidGuy | My graphics looked fine, just my second monitor was not responding. If I had a single monitor I probably would not have noticed right away that my system was not using the nvidia drivers | 16:20 |
dougl | I am not too worried... after all this is alpha ... just greatful I am not on the windowxs machine or the old mac | 16:21 |
LucidGuy | dougl, that would bug me.. I want proper GPU performance. | 16:23 |
dougl | BluesKaj, does your effects work on your 14.04 config?/ | 16:27 |
dougl | still after yesterdays update? | 16:28 |
BluesKaj | yes, dougl | 16:28 |
dougl | k thanks | 16:29 |
BluesKaj | I don't use an xorg.conf file | 16:29 |
dougl | I don't do anything other than stock is that xorg.conf? | 16:30 |
LucidGuy | dougl, if you use nvidia drivers you want an xorg.conf file | 16:34 |
LucidGuy | BluesKaj, you using nouveau? | 16:35 |
dougl | LucidGuy, thanks | 16:35 |
LucidGuy | Or just an onboard basic GPU | 16:35 |
dougl | 8400 | 16:35 |
dougl | for BluesKaj | 16:35 |
dougl | how do I switch back to nouveau drivers? | 16:36 |
LucidGuy | dougl, remove the xorg.conf file should do the trick | 16:37 |
dougl | or remove the nvidia and reinstall them ... I noticed lots of xorg updates yesterday | 16:37 |
BluesKaj | LucidGuy, nvidia-331 on both | 16:38 |
LucidGuy | BluesKaj, you have nvidia drivers with not xorg.conf file? | 16:38 |
LucidGuy | BluesKaj, how does that work? If you make a change via nvidia-settings, it wants to save to xorg.conf | 16:39 |
BluesKaj | yes, LucidGuy, xorg.conf is no longer default | 16:39 |
BluesKaj | it's just optional if you really need it | 16:40 |
LucidGuy | BluesKaj, so how do you make changes and save them? | 16:40 |
BluesKaj | LucidGuy, in system settings desktop effects, I have no nvidia-settings gui any longer, guess i could install it if needed | 16:43 |
dougl | I have not xorg.conf | 16:46 |
dougl | no | 16:46 |
dougl | BluesKaj, and where you said to use those settings in advanced tab for opengl and raster does not let me select them now | 16:49 |
BluesKaj | LucidGuy, greyed out? | 16:49 |
dougl | gives me a notice to check composting setting not greyed out just a message and changes back | 16:50 |
dougl | Failed to activate desktop effects using the given configuration options. Settings will be reverted to their previous values. | 16:51 |
dougl | Check your X configuration. You may also consider changing advanced options, especially changing the compositing type. | 16:51 |
BluesKaj | dougl, I did find the nvidia-xserver GUI, just hadn't bothered with it before, guess it was there all along :) | 16:51 |
dougl | lol | 16:52 |
dougl | just like microsoft in a different hiding spot? | 16:52 |
BluesKaj | my nvidia card is mostly for watching TV/videos. It's a 5yr old pc converted to a DIY/HT media center pc, and I don't play games. Wife has her own pc for her games, and she's happy to play them without a TV screen | 16:56 |
BluesKaj | 22" samsung monitor keeps her happy :) | 16:56 |
BluesKaj | LucidGuy, your card is capable of more effects than desktop effects can dish out. I don't get it. | 16:59 |
dougl | This notebook is the newest machine I have the rest of them are tried and true handme downs... just videos and music. | 16:59 |
BluesKaj | yeah, this laptop is pretty basic grphics wise altho it can do OpenGL 3.1 and raster with a few effects ike desktop cube animation and a few others, but I'm not much into all the availble effects | 17:03 |
BluesKaj | my windows user friends were wowed by the revolving screen from one virtual desktop to another tho, 6 different desktops flipping around was impressive to them :) | 17:05 |
dougl | I like the cube and wobbly windows the rest I just leave | 17:05 |
dougl | Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0" | 17:06 |
dougl | does that mean much to anyone? | 17:06 |
dougl | how do I purge the nvidia drivers and re install them? | 17:09 |
BluesKaj | dougl, try this, glxinfo | grep OpenGL , the output shoud just be one or 2 lines, so you can paste it here | 17:13 |
dougl | BluesKaj, thanks for taking some time :)... more than a few but all the same...http://pastebin.com/Bkr6MmPu | 17:17 |

RishJ | nopes...just trying to build abiword | 18:57 |
tsimpson | RishJ: it's pretty clear, an invalid option is being passed to g++ | 18:58 |
RishJ | tsimpson: ok..thanks...nothing wrong with g++ right? | 18:59 |
rberg | I dont know all the flags of the top of my head but it looks like that was truncated or something | 18:59 |
RishJ | so i guess something wrong with abiword build..right? | 18:59 |
tsimpson | RishJ: right, that option is actually a linker option not a compiler option | 19:00 |
tsimpson | so it needs to be prefixed with -Wl, as in: -Wl,--no-undefined | 19:00 |
RishJ | so build abiword with -Wl,-no-undefined? | 19:01 |
tsimpson | well you need to change the place where it's passing "--no-undefined" to pass "-Wl,--no-undefined" instead | 19:01 |
tsimpson | as a guess, I'd say to look for LDFLAGS | 19:01 |
LucidGuy | genii, how many people attended last lts? | 19:11 |
genii | LucidGuy: Altogether in the area of 20-25, but about a dozen or so at one time. People kept popping in and out | 19:13 |
