marshmn | hi; setting up a laptop which has no physical ethernet and the WiFi card doesn't seem to get picked up by default (I guess it needs some proprietary driver) | 18:40 |
marshmn | am I best trying to get the WiFi working whilst in the 'live' USB boot - or should I just install first without network and worry about sorting the WiFi after? | 18:40 |
marshmn | (if it matters either way) | 18:41 |
daubers | lo | 18:46 |
penguin42 | marshmn: Any idea what the wifi is ? lspci should tell you some | 18:47 |
marshmn | actually, don't worry about it... I managed to find a USB network adapter lying around... | 18:47 |
marshmn | that probably makes things easier :) | 18:47 |
penguin42 | ah good, which ubuntu are you installing that it didn't find the wifi? | 18:47 |
marshmn | 15.04 64 bit | 18:48 |
marshmn | just running off the live USB right now | 18:48 |
marshmn | WiFi looks to be "Broadcom Corporation BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03)" | 18:49 |
penguin42 | yeuch | 18:49 |
marshmn | :( | 18:50 |
penguin42 | I seem to remember there's a firmware thing, but I'm surprised 15.04 didn't have it | 18:50 |
marshmn | when I go to the 'Additional Drivers' section in system settings, it lists the device but just says 'this device is not working' | 18:52 |
marshmn | I can install from the USB device for now | 18:52 |
marshmn | will need to figure out how to solve that at some point | 18:52 |
penguin42 | marshmn: If you're incredibly lucky an update will get pulled in that will fix it, but dont bet on it | 18:53 |
marshmn | ah, now I was able to activate it in the additional drivers in the end | 18:54 |
marshmn | looks to be working now | 18:54 |
marshmn | at first I didn't see that there were options below if I scrolled | 18:54 |
marshmn | since it's crazy small scroll bar on silly hidpi display | 18:55 |
marshmn | ok, all working on WiFi now | 18:59 |
marshmn | many thanks | 18:59 |
marshmn | now to try and understand what the hell all these 8 partitions are that the machine came with configured... | 19:00 |
marshmn | penguin42: so, just FYI, the WiFi driver was included on the 15.04 live USB - it just didn't get activated by default | 19:14 |
penguin42 | marshmn: Can you see if there's already a bug filed for that - if not there should be one | 19:15 |
