[00:34] <honestemu> I recently installed lubuntu and I am getting this weird graphical bug. It happened while I was installing it as well. I'm seeing a bunch of black squares. Like things haven't rendered completely. Luckily, I knew where all of the buttons were, so I was able to complete the install. But that didn't fix it. Any idea?
[09:55] <dan> i have lubnutu 14.04 installed and preferences > language support menu is missing
[09:55] <dan> how do i add it ?
[11:06] <dan> i have lubnutu 14.04 installed and preferences > language support menu is missing

[14:44] <Kenb> Anyone have a working driver solution in US for Roper Class 1 USB bluetooth adapter?
 Or a reccomendation for USB Bluetooth adapter at a low cost.
[20:46] <aladiah> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10785698/
[20:49] <wxl> aladiah: um?
[20:49] <aladiah> Some one help me upgrade to the ultimate wireless driver  to Lubuntu 14.10 64 bits ?  this one here work for me https://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php , i already tested with http://paste.ubuntu.com/10785698/
[20:50] <aladiah> Should this be the right part of the manual INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS http://paste.ubuntu.com/10785720/
[20:52] <wxl> why is this the ultimate driver?
[20:53] <aladiah> i dont see none with yearlier release
[20:53] <wxl> !broadcom
[20:54] <aladiah> wxl thats it is unrealistic for me .  to much  hi tech
[20:54] <aladiah> too much information
[20:55] <wxl> you're talking about compiling a driver
[20:55] <wxl> it *IS* hi tech
[20:55] <aladiah> i need to test if with that driver works the bluetooth
[20:55] <wxl> well anyways, what's your question?
[20:55] <aladiah> my broadcom is two in one ... blutooth and wifi. wifi works, bluetooth not
[20:57] <aladiah> iam sure that it is the right driver  for my broadcom
[20:57] <wxl> just follow this section https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#A12.04_.28Precise_Pangolin.29
[20:57] <aladiah> lets try
[20:57] <wxl> four lines and you're done
[20:57] <wxl> no compiling or anything else necessary
[20:58] <aladiah> wxl : Do you mean this 4  lines http://paste.ubuntu.com/10785753/  ?
[20:59] <wxl> lines 3-4,10-11 of that paste
[20:59] <aladiah> thanks lets try
[21:00] <wxl> as long as you have 12.04 or greater, you will get the same version
[21:00] <wxl> i.e. 6.30.223.248
[21:00] <wxl> you can see all the different versions with rmadison bcmwl-kernel-source
[21:01] <wxl> if that doesn't work, you can either compile the driver yourself from broadcom or you can use ndiswrapper https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[21:01] <wxl> 1either way is certainly "technical" so i wouldn't recommend it
[21:04] <aladiah> wxl i should type all that commands up to point 6.x ?
[21:04] <wxl> aladiah: um, no, you type lines 3-4,10-11 of the last paste you sent
[21:18] <aladiah> wxl : my blutooth still dont work
[21:56] <aladiah> wxl : what it is it you another idea ?
[21:57] <wxl> aladiah: well i've never use broadcom for bluetooth. you might want to seek support with them directly. ultimately this is a broadcom issue not a lubuntu one.
[21:58] <wxl> aladiah: ndiswrapper uses the windows drivers to make it work
[21:58] <wxl> aladiah: none of the alternatives will be easy, per se. good luck!
[21:59] <aladiah> thats why i ask your help to teach me install this new driver from broadcom website
[21:59] <wxl> aladiah: and what i'm telling you is that we don't claim to support it per se. you should ask broadcom for further help.
[22:00] <wxl> aladiah: especially given what you just did essentially replicates the process of compiling that driver. sounds to me like it doesn't work. again, that's a broadcom issue.
[22:05] <aladiah> it works perfectly on windows. on windows i just dowloaded the driver, then execute it , done
[22:05] <wxl> aladiah: then you can complain at broadcom for providing less than optimal drivers for linux
[22:05] <aladiah> yep
[22:06] <aladiah> wxl but i didn t tryed their driver yet . i dont know how to install it
[22:06] <aladiah> for linux
[22:06] <wxl> aladiah: you already did is what i'm telling you
[22:07] <wxl> read the PRECOMPILED DRIVER section of the readme for more information there
[22:07] <aladiah> ok
[22:07] <wxl> you should also note at the very bottom of the readme they have the same exact instructions
[22:09] <aladiah> yes https://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README_6.30.223.248.txt
[22:10] <aladiah> they say ; Some distros (Ubuntu and Fedora at the least) already have a version of this driver in their repositories precompiled,
[22:10] <aladiah> how could i know iam using the same distro now or not ?
[22:10] <wxl> aladiah: and they do, and that's what you installed
[22:14] <aladiah> wxl : Dont you think i can put # in some of lines in  /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[22:14] <wxl> aladiah: yep, that's one way to comment things out
[22:14] <aladiah> remember me how to edit
[22:14] <aladiah> gedit doesnit ?
[22:15] <wxl> that's one way to do it
[22:15] <aladiah> lets see
[22:18] <aladiah> wxl : wich of this ones in blacklist could need a # before each line ?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786543/
[22:23] <wxl> aladiah: why do you think you need any?
[22:23] <aladiah> i think maybe one of those is bluetooth  and it is on black list
[22:24] <wxl> why would that be?
[22:25] <aladiah> my old machine, only works with wireless when i put a # before bcm4311 line
[22:25] <aladiah> lololol
[22:25] <aladiah> on that file ...
[22:25] <aladiah> blacklist.conf
[22:27] <wxl> so at some point you got this to work on some other machine?
[22:28] <aladiah> bluetooth ? my old machine dont have bluetooth , only wifi
[22:29] <aladiah> but to make it work, i always need to put # before bcm 4311 line
[22:29] <aladiah> wxl : They say :  Building this driver requires that your machine have the proper tools, packages, header files and libraries to build a standard kernel module.
[22:30] <aladiah> wxl:  how can i be sure i have the proper pakacges to start build it
[22:30] <aladiah> ?
[22:33] <aladiah> wxl: they say: tar xzf <path>/hybrid-v35-nodebug-pcoem-portsrc.tar.gz  ,  i should put something where say PATH ?
[22:34] <wxl> aladiah: then it's probably not related
[22:34] <wxl> aladiah: as for what you're asking about, i wouldn't recommend it. for one, it's already done for you and it didn't work. secondly, it's extremely complicated
[22:34] <aladiah> ok
[22:35] <aladiah> wxl do you have knowledge to do it ?
[22:36] <aladiah> wxl : if was your laptop , you were able to do it for yourself ?
[22:36] <wxl> aladiah: yes
[22:36] <wxl> aladiah: if i reached the point you have reached, i'd probably seek support from broadcom.
[22:36] <aladiah> wxl : do you want acess my machine via chrome remote acess and do it ?
[22:36] <wxl> aladiah: absolutely not.
[22:36] <aladiah> ok
[22:39] <aladiah> wxl : its normal when we open up the blueman , a box with a message saying Bluetooth switched off!  The bluetooth must be swithec off to let the device manager work! OUT or Activate bluetooth ?
[22:39] <aladiah> when you open your blueman do you have this message?
[22:40] <wxl> aladiah: no.
[22:40] <wxl> aladiah: have you tried a reboot?
[22:41] <aladiah> if i click, activate bluetooth, the box closes and nothing happen, even if i try to reopen blueman. If i reboot, and try again, and choose OUt, then reopen blueman, and choose activate , the blueman opens up but no buttons works , except help button
[22:42] <wxl> aladiah: have you tried to contact broadcom?
[22:42] <aladiah> no yet
[22:42] <aladiah> but i will
[22:42] <wxl> you should
[22:42] <aladiah> what i should say them?
[22:42] <wxl> that you have the latest driver installed and bluetooth doesn't work and explain it further
[22:42] <aladiah> thats it
[22:43] <wxl> well i would certainly expound and be more detailed
[22:50] <aladiah> wxl : what you thinmk about this http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786727/ ?
[22:51] <wxl> aladiah: add that you installed the precompiled binary from the ubuntu repos
[22:51] <wxl> wait a minute
[22:52] <wxl> bah chatzilla
[22:53] <aladiah> like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786733/   i will send to https://www.broadcom.com/contact/feedback.php
[22:54] <wxl> hold on aladiah
[22:54] <aladiah> ok
[22:57] <wxl> aladiah: you get anything from `lspci | grep -i bluetooth`?
[22:58] <aladiah> let me try
[22:58] <aladiah> nothing
[22:59] <aladiah> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786784/
[22:59] <wxl> what about `lsusb | grep -i bluetooth`?
[22:59] <aladiah> but bluetooth is not usb, it is embedded
[23:00] <wxl> i am aware of that
[23:01] <aladiah> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786800/
[23:01] <aladiah> nothing
[23:01] <wxl> k well weird, but whatever
[23:01] <aladiah> i have dual boot, i tested on windows, work fine
[23:02] <aladiah> showld be a blueman problem ?
[23:02] <aladiah> isnt an alternativa app to test it ?
[23:02] <wxl> no, but i'm thinking the kernel doesn't see the hardware
[23:02] <wxl> we'vbe been looking at bcm4365 but that's the wifi chip
[23:02] <aladiah> why this wxl ?
[23:02] <wxl> the bt is a separate chip
[23:03] <wxl> lspci should show a separate entry for it
[23:03] <wxl> 1you might want to provide the whole content of lspci
[23:03] <aladiah> how ?
[23:03] <wxl> `lspci`
[23:04] <aladiah> http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786820/
[23:04] <aladiah> wxl: lspci result
[23:05] <wxl> yeah i see nothing there at all
[23:05] <wxl> maybe the card is not seated all the way or a cable is disconnected
[23:05] <aladiah> wxl, it works on windows
[23:06] <aladiah> i tested this afternoon
[23:06] <wxl> then i am baffled
[23:06] <aladiah> connected with my nokia E63
[23:06] <wxl> even if it cannot understand how to work with a piece of hardware, the kernel should be able to recognize it
[23:07] <aladiah> Maybe it start work with the 15 version
[23:07] <wxl> 111what's the output of `dmesg | grep -i bluetooth`?
[23:07] <aladiah> some months ago ICEDTEA  dont work for me . . . no one could helped me to , then an update came, and voilaaa it work
[23:07] <wxl> also `rfkill list all`
[23:09] <aladiah> wxl: results for dmesg | grep -i bluetooth : http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786852/
[23:09] <wxl> fascinating
[23:10] <aladiah> wxl: results for rfkill list all      http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786860/
[23:11] <wxl> weird there's no bluetooth there
[23:11] <aladiah> no ?
[23:11] <aladiah> the driver . .
[23:11] <aladiah> the problem is the driver . .
[23:11] <aladiah> doesnit '
[23:11] <wxl> there's no reason to be sure of that
[23:12] <aladiah> because the wifi and bluetooth is the same piece of hardware doesnit ?
[23:12] <wxl> what about `hcitool dev`?
[23:12] <wxl> it's on the same card, but not on the same chip
[23:12] <aladiah> the driver is apropriate to wifi , but they forgot the bluetooth lololol
[23:12] <aladiah> what else?
[23:13] <wxl> you can think of it like a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich. the two components ARE seperate even though they're on the same thing.
[23:13] <wxl> the problem is that the bluetooth is not foudn
[23:13] <wxl> bluetooth ≠ wifi
[23:13] <wxl> totally different protocols
[23:13] <aladiah> yes it is different
[23:14] <aladiah> lolol how do you put that sign "different" ?
[23:14] <aladiah> its a keyword combination ?
[23:14] <wxl> it is if you use altgr
[23:14] <wxl> err compose key
[23:15] <wxl> 1https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey
[23:15] <aladiah> i dont see that sign on my keyboard
[23:15] <wxl> it's not
[23:15] <wxl> set up compose and it should be as easy as something like ralt = /
[23:15] <wxl> but what about `hcitool dev`?
[23:17] <aladiah> wxl : results for  "hcitool dev" http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786924/
[23:22] <aladiah> Maybe i shloud add to broadcom ticket  , this past.ubuntu . . . . too doesnit ?
[23:29] <aladiah> wxl : look to the ticket to broadcom now, with commands yhou ask my add to it :  http://paste.ubuntu.com/10786973/
[23:29] <aladiah> its more complete now doesn i t?
[23:30] <wxl> yep
[23:30] <wxl> good luck aladiah
[23:31] <wxl> please share the solution with us when you find it
[23:31] <wxl> you can email the mailing list
[23:31] <aladiah> should i included your nick too as channel lubuntu support ?
[23:31]  * wxl shrugs
[23:31] <wxl> i doubt they'll pop into irc and ask questions :)
[23:31] <aladiah>  but i will
[23:31] <aladiah> anyway,
[23:35] <aladiah> wxl : read the latest paragraph please http://paste.ubuntu.com/10787004/
[23:35] <wxl> sure
[23:35] <wxl> bbl
[23:36] <aladiah> lets see
[23:38] <aladiah> wxl : you will not believe, when i submitt the ticket , the ticket is not accepted, because this:  The reCAPTCHA wasn't entered correctly. Please try again.
[23:38] <ianorlin> aladiah: I think the driver you installed is for the wifi part of the chip
[23:38] <aladiah> What recaptcha, there is no re captcha .
[23:38] <aladiah> ianorlin, that is what i think too
[23:40] <ianorlin> I don't know of a broadcom bluetooth driver but I don't actually have anything bluetooth
[23:49] <aladiah> ok done, lets see what they have to say about it !
