Balsaq | hello lubuntites! | 01:24 |
---|---|---|
Balsaq | i just turned a horrible vista laptop into a greyhound | 01:26 |
ianorlin | Balsaq: glad you like it | 01:33 |
Balsaq | this laptop was almost dead | 01:55 |
Balsaq | i dropped a $39 128gb SSD in her and installed lubuntu WOW | 01:56 |
tsimonq2 | nice | 01:59 |
Balsaq | if anyone needs help manually installing broadcom wireless driver to make lubuntu run wireless i just did it and its working...was a p.i.t.a but its stable. | 01:59 |
Balsaq | i had it hard wired during install hoping everything would work but had to learn to make it run wireless...so glad i got that part done. | 02:00 |
tsimonq2 | yay | 02:00 |
Balsaq | i was bummin there for awhile | 02:00 |
Balsaq | i was like.."oh shiddt now ima have to drill another hole in the floor for another cat6 cable"..... | 02:01 |
Balsaq | i got psensor working on it too' | 02:02 |
tsimonq2 | !language | 02:03 |
ubottu | The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 02:03 |
Balsaq | do you think 160F is too hot for an olod turion laptop? | 02:03 |
Kamilion | a bit. | 02:04 |
Balsaq | hmmm | 02:04 |
Kamilion | find a 40mm fan or something and sugru it on the vent. | 02:04 |
Balsaq | seem to have some paerts at 115 and one as ahigh as 160 | 02:04 |
Balsaq | doesnt feel hot anywhere though | 02:04 |
Balsaq | yeah i removed a bunch of fans from old desktops the other day and kept them before tossing the other parts | 02:06 |
Balsaq | i could make a nice cooler | 02:06 |
Balsaq | looking at lubuntu task mgr -wow she is barely breathing | 02:07 |
Balsaq | 1-4% cpu, 204mb ram usage! ia ma having more fun on this than my newer gaming desktop. | 02:09 |
ianorlin | Balsaq: if you have two linux laptops and wifi works on both with fresh installs you may want brdige-utils | 02:12 |
ianorlin | if you have a short ethernet patch cord and ports on both | 02:12 |
ianorlin | then you can connect on wifi and share the ethernet without needing to plug into back of router | 02:13 |
Balsaq | hmmm never heard of this | 02:23 |
ianorlin | !info bridge-utils | 02:24 |
ubottu | bridge-utils (source: bridge-utils): Utilities for configuring the Linux Ethernet bridge. In component main, is optional. Version 1.5-7ubuntu1 (vivid), package size 28 kB, installed size 143 kB | 02:24 |
ianorlin | thing is there is a way for nm-applet to use it and share | 02:24 |
Balsaq | i do have 2 linux laptops - the other one is running ubuntu but i noticed on that one the wirelss worked w/o me doing anything in fact i wasnt even hard wired to intrnet | 02:25 |
Balsaq | and now i got this one to run wirelss too so im good | 02:25 |
Balsaq | both have ssd's now too | 02:25 |
ianorlin | until next install | 02:26 |
Balsaq | yeah but this in good till mid 2017 i think | 02:26 |
ianorlin | yes | 02:26 |
Balsaq | but you are correct - next time i may have some new wireless challenge...i wish that issue would stop. | 02:27 |
ianorlin | Balsaq: many linux user share that sentiment | 02:28 |
Balsaq | i had to do it in terminal but using that method it really seems locked in im steady at 4 bars of 5 since i did it and my router is in the basement so not mad at all....doesnt waiver at all. | 02:29 |
Balsaq | bad* | 02:29 |
