ap0cI really don't know , maybe google or a forum post would help ^00:56
ap0cI am just using a laptop / default laptop monitor right now00:56
Waffl3x:P00:57
smaudetnobody willing to help?02:36
ap0csmaudet, why are you scared to upgrade to 14.04 LTS?02:50
smaudetap0c: because I think the drivers will all blow up02:51
smaudetthis is an older machine circa 2009/10, I don't think the package maintainers have a good understanding of this hardware02:51
smaudetsince as I said nearly everytime I update it tries to install the wrong wifi drivers02:52
smaudetMy guess is that if I update it will install those wrong wifi drivers, and my ethernet (which is currently not working) will also be unavailable02:52
smaudetthat basically makes it junk for me.02:52
smaudetand its not fun to sideload wifi drivers on a 'clean' system that has no build stuff installed02:53
smaudetits a nightmare, actually, I've done it once and it took me half a day02:53
ap0cyou do know that drivers are all handled by the kernel?02:53
smaudetAnd that's part of the problem, I don't think my drivers are compatible with the newer kernels02:53
smaudetI'm on 3.202:53
smaudetlast lts I check is on 3.1702:54
smaudetchecked*02:54
ap0cI'm on 3.13.0-40-generic on 14.04.1 LTS02:54
smaudet14.04.3 I think is what I checked02:54
smaudetjust ran an install on a newer machine I just built02:54
smaudetbut no way I'm installing 14.04.x on here02:55
smaudettoo new and I'm 100% it will just break02:55
smaudetrather if I could figure out my problem, maybe I have a chance at using 14.0402:55
smaudetbut for now that chance is zero02:55
smaudetso I'd appreciate help02:55
ap0cyou could always try a live image on a USB or CD to see if it's compatible with your hardware02:56
ap0cI have a laptop from 2010 and it works fine02:56
smaudetyeah, but the wifi?02:56
smaudetwhat chipset do you have02:56
smaudetI've got b4302:56
smaudetI mean I expect the usb/keyboard/mouse and vga will still work, but I've got no chance in hell that the network will work at all for 14.0402:58
smaudetspecifically I have BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller02:58
ap0chow do I find out what chipset I'm using?03:01
ap0cit worked out of the box for me and I never checked03:01

SlanderWhile I'm here, does anyone know of a way to move an open application between Activites?19:45
JunkHunkif only I knew what activities are for19:49
SlanderThey are like differnt desktops, you can have different widgets and programs open.19:50
JunkHunkyou named it I already have multiple desktops I dont need activities19:50
JunkHunkit looks twisty to me19:52
krytarikSlander: See here: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=9842919:53
JunkHunkokay19:54
SlanderJunkHunk: I'm installing Skype, I needed to anyway.19:54
JunkHunklol19:55
JunkHunkwell..I think I see the point of activities..19:55
JunkHunka kind of keeping applications bound to desktops...perhaps?19:56
SlanderI felt the same way at first. But then I made a "System Managemet" activity with terminals and system info widgets.19:56
JunkHunkoh wise..19:56
JunkHunkso now I am the user...now the administrator19:57
JunkHunkneat idea in this madness19:57

JunkHunkIn Kubuntu 14.04, the problem was solved by going to Startup and Shutdown, then Session Management and checking Start with an empty session and Apply.20:41
SlanderI'd totally check that too, if my wireless card didn't suck so hard.20:43

Josh^does anyone else have issues of Chromium freezing the whole system?21:40
Josh^it keeps happening to me and I have to click ctrl+alt+F3 to get to a console screen and then ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to my desktop21:40
Josh^that fixes it every time but it's rather annoying21:41
soeenope, but Chromium sometimes stops to respond for me, have to minimize it and maximize that it works again21:43
soeebut im on plasma 5, so this might be also related to not full activities support or somethinf21:43
SlanderIt does the same to me on Plasma 4, soee21:50
parsnipWhat type of terminal is Konsole? Is it xterm or... ?21:54
larsiviyesterday I updated my 14.04 for the first time in a little while on my dell xps 13 dev edition (the original one) and now the touchpad is pretty much unusable22:12
larsivianyone seen something similar?22:12
larsivithe touchpad settings seems to confirm that there is something with the config (a conflict or whatever), but I wasn't able to actually see any obvious differences22:13
larsivifor example it appears that it triggers scrolling when it shouldn't (one finger)22:15
