[01:10] Would some one help me with my Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN [14e4:4311] (rev 01) wireless driver please [01:11] OK . I'll review this topics and if I found a problem I'll come back again !! [01:14] !bcm | nonya [01:14] nonya: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [01:15] nonya, for starters, that page implies you don't want the legacy driver for 4311.. [01:16] ok Knome [01:16] and ubottu [01:17] brb [01:23] Hello [01:24] Hello knome and ubottu [01:24] hello (and no need to highlight) [01:24] and fwiw, ubottu is a bot (u-bot-tu) [01:24] oh haha [01:25] still trying to work on the langauge here ha ha [01:26] it's ok, we all have to start somewhere [01:27] that web page is a bit confussing [01:29] what exactly in it? [01:29] should i use the firmware-b43-installer [01:30] that's what the page says [01:32] ok will try it also installs firmware b43 installer [01:33] doing it now [01:33] note that installing multiple drivers might end up not working either - make sure you remove the other drivers you have tried to install [01:33] i did alllready [01:34] How do i test it with out rebot [01:36] well, the page does tell you that if you actually read it... [01:37] (see "Switching between drivers") [01:38] ok i see [01:39] odprobe: FATAL: Module wl not found. [01:40] that's becuase you shouldn't have that module [01:41] should i reboot then [01:41] well... [01:41] if you don't know what you are doing, then that's an option [01:42] ok will be back the orblem there is it hangs when i reboot or shutdown that was the last problem i had [01:43] how can i stop the hang with out using the power button [01:44] brb [01:44] without knowing and debugging the problem, no idea [01:54] how do i open root file manager [01:54] why do you need to do that? [01:54] !root | nonya [01:54] nonya: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [01:55] nonya, you do not need ROOT access to install or configure wifi [01:58] i get back with the why in a moment [01:59] i just saw that i may need to edit the grub file in /etc/default/grub someone elese had the same problem and it work for them [02:00] for my reboot and shutdown problem [02:01] nonya, do you know what you are doing or are you blindly following somebody elses advice? [02:02] and fwiw, it doesn't make voluntary people motivated to help you if you start working on another issue while they try to help you with another [02:03] Ok what should i do [02:03] try starting with what happened when you rebooted [02:04] does your wifi work now? [02:04] I guess i should have worked on the reboot issue first [02:04] sorry [02:04] i will try that wifi thing now i will reboot [02:04] BRB [02:11] ok wireless works thank you knome [02:13] no problem, and a good reminder that actually reading what guides say helps figuring out the problems... [02:14] you are so right knome, I uselly do but i was in a hurry [02:14] right... but you ended using a lot more time fixing the issue that you would have if you read the guide the first time [02:14] and a lot more of my time as well [02:14] sorry friend [02:15] it will not happen again [02:15] you do not need to apologise - just pointing out that reading and thinking really helps [02:16] for what comes to the root file manager, i'd rather just open one file with root permissions - that way there is less risk of serious damage [02:16] i was in a hurry need to slow done [02:16] (opening a root file manager becomes a habit fast, and that's not a good habit, so better avoid it) [02:18] i read on line that i need to change the ect/default/grub configuration for th acpi to help with reboot and shutdown hang [02:20] then open that file in a text editor with root permissions [02:20] no need for a root file manager [02:21] how do i do that [02:21] in terminal, sudo nano /file/name [02:22] knome, sudo gedit /filenamegoeshere [02:22] cfhowlett, nope, no sudo for GUI apps. [02:22] oh i see [02:22] cfhowlett, and gedit isn't installed on xubuntu by default... [02:22] if you want a GUI editor, pkexec mousepad /file/name [02:22] knome, doh! rigt. gksudo for gui apps. and gedit IS included at least on ubuntustudio 14.04 [02:23] (assuming you are on a recent version) [02:23] cfhowlett, well pkexec actually... [02:23] knome, I'll go back to lurking as you're on top of this. [02:24] cfhowlett, gksudo gave all permissions to all apps - pkexec requires a policy file for each app, but can give permissions more granularly - and is thus safer [02:24] knome, "I learned something today! ..." :) thanks. will reserach. [02:24] np [02:24] got it folks [02:26] i'm off to bed [02:26] good night [02:50] God Bless knome [05:49] can I DL itunes?

[15:12] YEEEEE XUBUNTU IS THE BESTTTT [15:25] uh huh === mnepton is now known as mneptok [20:29] If you hold the whisker menu key down and then let go the menu flickers open/closed. Perhaps it should be more like holding Alt where letting go only registers as 1 press? [20:51] oiu, perhaps you should be in touch with the whiskermenu developer about that [23:56] I'm going to ask you a simple question. How could I get a simple task to work on? How could I leave my footprint to the Linux community? I really do like Xubuntu, and I would like to actually do something, rather than make a monetary contribution. I have worked on proprietary software that million of people use. I do not care about QA
