[01:24] <Balsaq> hello lubuntites!
[01:26] <Balsaq> i just turned a horrible vista laptop into a greyhound
[01:33] <ianorlin> Balsaq: glad you like it
[01:55] <Balsaq> this laptop was almost dead
[01:56] <Balsaq> i dropped a $39 128gb SSD in her and installed lubuntu WOW
[01:59] <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.
[02:00] <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
[02:01] <Balsaq> i was like.."oh shiddt now ima have to drill another hole in the floor for another cat6 cable".....
[02:02] <Balsaq> i got psensor working on it too'
[02:03] <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?
[02:04] <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
[02:06] <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
[02:07] <Balsaq> looking at lubuntu task mgr -wow she is barely breathing
[02:09] <Balsaq> 1-4% cpu, 204mb ram usage! ia ma having more fun on this than my newer gaming desktop.
[02:12] <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
[02:13] <ianorlin> then you can connect on wifi and share the ethernet without needing to plug into back of router
[02:23] <Balsaq> hmmm never heard of this
[02:24] <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
[02:25] <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
[02:26] <ianorlin> until next install
[02:26] <Balsaq> yeah but this in good till mid 2017 i think
[02:26] <ianorlin> yes
[02:27] <Balsaq> but you are correct - next time i may have some new wireless challenge...i wish that issue would stop.
[02:28] <ianorlin> Balsaq: many linux user share that sentiment
[02:29] <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*
