| zerothis | I recomiled my kernel, then swtch back (I think). how can I confirm which kernel I'm using? | 16:36 |

| wxl | zerothis: uname -a | 16:47 |
| zerothis | wxl: thanks. that confirms I'm still on my custom kernel. How do I switch back? | 16:49 |
| wxl | zerothis: grub | 16:50 |
| JohnnyComeL8ly | At boot you hold Shift... that will get you the GRUB menu from which you can choose your old kernel. | 16:50 |
| zerothis | yup. the old kernel works. Now how do I make that permanent or otherwise prevent my custom kernel from being used? | 16:54 |
| wxl | zerothis: with grub :) | 16:55 |
| zerothis | so what I just did as permanent? | 16:55 |
| zerothis | was permanent | 16:55 |
| JohnnyComeL8ly | Use boot-repair. | 16:55 |
| krytarik | !grub | zerothis | 16:56 |
| ubottu | zerothis: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 16:56 |
| JohnnyComeL8ly | Disregard the boot-repair "fix." I checked the options and it didn't have that. | 17:00 |
| zerothis | i think I just had a duh, how about booting with the old kernel then uninstalling my customer kernel | 17:01 |
| JohnnyComeL8ly | I had that thought too, but I thought you wanted to keep the custom kernel... I guess not. | 17:11 |
| JohnnyComeL8ly | zerothis: If you want to keep the custom kernel but have the Lubuntu kernel be the default, then look at this solution: http://askubuntu.com/questions/216398/set-older-kernel-as-default-grub-entry | 17:19 |
| zerothis | JohnnyComeL8ly: thanks, but my custom kernel was compiled without support for my wireless card (doh!). It must go. I have gone back to the supplied generic kernel. Later I will try again. | 17:56 |
| zerothis | thank you all for the help. | 17:57 |

| jakew | I am trying to install ndiswrapper on a machine that I cannot connect to the Internet via Ethernet and I'm pretty sure it's the only way the wireless card is supported. There is a bug so that just installing ndiswrapper and its dependencies does not work. I want to try to compile it, but I've been tracking down lots of packages to get gcc up and going and moving them with a thumbdrive. Is there an easier way? | 18:28 |
| Australopithecus | I have a macbook that is frozen it has lubuntu 14.04 what key combination do I input to shut it down? | 20:40 |
| Australopithecus | or press rather | 20:40 |
| krytarik | !reisub | Australopithecus | 20:44 |
| ubottu | Australopithecus: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 20:44 |
| ianorlin | also trying control alt f1 may get you to command line if just GUI froze | 20:45 |
| Australo_ | I dont have a print screen button @ubottu | 20:58 |
| === Guest39965 is now known as rww | ||
| ianorlin | I am not sure how to do it now Australo_ but there was a way to configure it | 20:59 |
| Australo_ | there was a way but I forgot | 20:59 |
| Australo_ | it was some combination of alt shift fn and f1 | 20:59 |
| Australo_ | or f2 | 20:59 |
| Australo_ | cant remember its was my so's responsibility to remember it -_- | 21:00 |
| Australo_ | its where you exit the gui | 21:01 |
| Australo_ | think i figured it out thanks for the help | 21:03 |
| Australo_ | stuck with a hard frozen computer :\ | 21:05 |
