| purencool | Is there away to save the package list that is installed on my system. So when I do a reinstall I can go to that list and deploy with out trying to remembering what was installed before? | 00:12 |
|---|---|---|
| jea | I would start with this http://superuser.com/questions/48374/find-all-user-installed-packages | 00:14 |
| purencool | ta | 00:17 |
| purencool | dpkg --get-selections | sed 's/\t.*//' > packages-list.txt | 00:49 |
| jea | nice and simple | 00:51 |
| purencool | I only want the packages like Apache Gimp etc. Will this add packages that are out of date because I mentioned them in the txt file? | 00:53 |
| jea | um, if you just get the package names without versions, then it will install the latest version | 00:54 |
| purencool | Cool that is what I want. I am sick of trying to remember what I use in my development chain. I am going to make bash script after a clean install that does the bulk of the work. Opt is my next issue thanks | 00:58 |
| tonph | hi any one home ? | 06:52 |
| jea | there are some people here | 06:52 |
| tonph | hi... just need a help.. on setting up bluetooth in delln4010, ubuntu 14 64 bit.. | 06:53 |
| tonph | in case you guys have some idea..!! | 06:54 |
| jea | I can't say I have dealt with bluetooth setup for a while | 06:54 |
| jea | Have you tried the people in #ubuntu at all? | 06:55 |
| jea | because they might know more | 06:55 |
| tonph | yeah I tried, but looks like nope.. | 06:55 |
| jea | hmm | 06:55 |
| tonph | or may be no ppl are not yet in the room at this time... :) | 06:56 |
| jea | could be | 06:56 |
| jea | what is the issue in general? | 06:56 |
| tonph | its like , I have dell n4010 laptop, with ubuntu 14 64 bit. and I want to set up my bluetooth in my box.. | 06:57 |
| tonph | my homework says, it needs windows driver to make it work.. now I dont have any windows with me and its been long time i used windows too.. | 06:58 |
| tonph | opening my bluetooth app, says no adapter found | 06:58 |
| tonph | lsusb result has this entry : Bus 001 Device 008: ID 0a5c:4500 Broadcom Corp. BCM2046B1 USB 2.0 Hub (part of BCM2046 Bluetooth) | 06:59 |
| jea | right | 07:00 |
| jea | looking online, people seem to be saying a broadcom 365 chipset | 07:00 |
| tonph | yeah smthing like that,, i tried installing many bunches of software including reinstalling bluez-utils , but no luck | 07:02 |
| tonph | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8477463/, ths is my lshw | 07:04 |
| jea | does lsusb contain anything about Dell Wireless 365 Bluetooth? | 07:05 |
| tonph | http://paste.ubuntu.com/8477473/, i think 365 is not there.. | 07:06 |
| jea | what version kernel and bluez do you have installed? | 07:07 |
| tonph | kernel is : Linux ayuk-Inspiron-N4010 3.13.0-36-generic #63-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 3 21:30:07 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux | 07:08 |
| tonph | let me try to find the bluez version, cmd not working... | 07:10 |
| tonph | looks like this 4.101-0ubuntu13 | 07:11 |
| tonph | m not sure, but tried this dpkg --status bluez | grep '^Version:' | 07:11 |
| jea | ok | 07:12 |
| tonph | yeah its true, bluetoothd -v = gets me that version too | 07:12 |
| tonph | m checking this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBroadcom, may help me.. | 07:14 |
| jea | what does `rfkill list` show? | 07:14 |
| tonph | 0: phy0: Wireless LAN | 07:14 |
| tonph | Soft blocked: no | 07:14 |
| tonph | Hard blocked: no | 07:14 |
| tonph | 0: phy0: Wireless LAN \n Soft blocked: no \n Hard blocked: no ; this only | 07:15 |
| jea | right | 07:15 |
| jea | so nothing about bluetooth at all | 07:15 |
| tonph | yes .. :( | 07:16 |
| jea | https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/34791/no-bluetooth-adapters-found-broadcom-bcm2046b1-or-dell-wireless-365-bluetooth/ | 07:16 |
| jea | that is fedora, but they seemed to have it appear | 07:16 |
| tonph | lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4 => 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter [14e4:4727] (rev 01) | 07:16 |
| tonph | ok, let me check | 07:16 |
| jea | someone else mentioned that they had the bluetooth not work until they booted into windows and then enabled it | 07:17 |
| jea | do you have a hardware button to enable/disable bluetooth? | 07:17 |
| jea | or bios stuff? | 07:17 |
| tonph | yes- that is the thing haunting my mind, if i dnt have windows then no chance of waking up my bluetooth, was thinking that | 07:18 |
| tonph | then I started searching the work around until i landed here :) | 07:18 |
| jea | yeah | 07:21 |
| jea | i am wondering if it is something to do with being disabled | 07:21 |
| jea | someone else managed to get it to work by making a winxp virtual machine, connecting the bluetooth device as a usb device to the VM, then installing drivers in the VM | 07:22 |
| jea | but that is a long way to go to get something working | 07:22 |
| tonph | yes - its a long way .. | 07:22 |
| tonph | just a trace of command bluetood - http://paste.ubuntu.com/8477541/ | 07:24 |
| jea | not too sure what to suggest sorry | 07:29 |
| jea | it sort of sounds like you might have to see if it still works in windows | 07:30 |
| tonph | not a prob , still thanks for the time.. | 07:30 |
| jea | a VM will probably be enough for that | 07:30 |
| tonph | i dnt have windows as of now, I have debian wheezy on kvm on top of my ubuntu | 07:30 |
| tonph | let me do some more home work and check if my hardware is pretty old to be supported or where is the bug.. thnx | 07:31 |
| jea | i suspect if it doesn't work in ubuntu, then it won't work in debian | 07:31 |
| jea | possibly something like fedora would give a different result, but I am not too sure | 07:31 |
| tonph | ok.. let me do some more experiments.... | 07:32 |
| tonph | thanks jea - got to run; catch u later.. tc | 07:35 |
| jea | no worries | 07:35 |
| jea | hope you get it sorted | 07:35 |
| tonph | thnx - tc | 07:35 |
