lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 07:11 |
lotuspsychje | 36 users, its full house in discuss :p | 07:12 |
lotuspsychje | http://news.softpedia.com/news/it-s-official-there-are-now-over-1-500-linux-games-in-valve-s-steam-library-492144.shtml | 07:13 |
lotuspsychje | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2015/09/you-can-now-buy-ubuntu-laptops-pc-and-phones-from-snapdeal | 07:20 |
lotuspsychje | lookin neat also | 07:20 |
lotuspsychje | good morning lordievader | 07:23 |
lordievader | Good morning. | 07:23 |
lotuspsychje | TJ-: morning mate | 07:59 |
TJ- | Hiya :) | 07:59 |
lotuspsychje | TJ-: on my updated system my rt2800pci driver showed driverversion= generic firmware and number | 08:10 |
lotuspsychje | so those generic driver versions must be in the updates somehow | 08:10 |
lotuspsychje | the rt2800pci.ko doesnt work by default so it seems | 08:11 |
TJ- | Hmmm | 08:12 |
lotuspsychje | im wondering wich package these generic firmwares are in | 08:13 |
lotuspsychje | i didnt manually installed myself | 08:13 |
lotuspsychje | TJ-: would be interesting to know if we can download these firmware on usb, to install on offline boxes | 08:14 |
lotuspsychje | in the future | 08:15 |
TJ- | dpkg -S $(modinfo -F firmware rt2800pci) | 08:15 |
TJ- | linux-firmware: /lib/firmware/rt2860.bin | 08:15 |
lotuspsychje | !info linux-firmware | 08:15 |
ubot5 | linux-firmware (source: linux-firmware): Firmware for Linux kernel drivers. In component main, is optional. Version 1.143.3 (vivid), package size 24170 kB, installed size 84290 kB | 08:15 |
lotuspsychje | would this hold all firmwares for every card then? | 08:16 |
TJ- | All freely distributed firmwares are in linux-firmware | 08:16 |
lotuspsychje | nice one | 08:16 |
lotuspsychje | ive seen that broadcom driver also on default 14.04.3 iso also, but thats another story | 08:17 |
lotuspsychje | so lets say i have an offline box and install linux-firmware off the usb and install on system, it should recognize the rt2800pci | 08:17 |
TJ- | 'recognise' is done by the Linux driver itself. 'be able to use' would require the firmware image | 08:18 |
lotuspsychje | cool | 08:20 |
lotuspsychje | ill try that next box with nonworking card | 08:20 |
lotuspsychje | TJ-: tnx for the linux-firmware tip, seems like all firmwares inside that tar | 11:42 |
lotuspsychje | strange it shows as 'optional' and i never installed it | 11:45 |
lordievader | linux-firmware contains all the stuff, you might just want to install a subset. | 11:47 |
lotuspsychje | lordievader: yes ive noticed all brands inside, but was wondering why it got installed on my box | 11:47 |
lotuspsychje | hey hey | 11:55 |
BluesKaj | hey | 11:55 |
Ben64 | hey hey hey | 11:55 |
lotuspsychje | channels get more crowdy bit by bit | 11:55 |
BluesKaj | I have too many chats on the go as ikt is :-) | 11:56 |
lotuspsychje | ah right | 11:56 |
lotuspsychje | but your supporting mates you dont forget right :p | 11:56 |
BluesKaj | I try to help if I can, if that's what you mean . | 11:58 |
lotuspsychje | no i just mean to gather here for chitchat under volunteers :p | 11:58 |
lotuspsychje | its nice to discuss news and changes n stuff | 11:59 |
BluesKaj | i did a total clean install od 15.10b eta so guess I forgot to include "discuss" when configuring konversation a couple of weeks ago | 12:04 |
BluesKaj | of 15.10 beta even | 12:05 |
lotuspsychje | cool | 12:05 |
lotuspsychje | hows it running so far? | 12:05 |
lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: your on kubuntu 15.10b then? | 12:07 |
BluesKaj | quite well actually , some crashes with system settings. Plasma 5.4/KDE is still using X tho , no change to wayland until 16.04 I think | 12:07 |
lordievader | Might not even be 16.04. Too large of a change for an LTS release I'd say. | 12:07 |
lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: did you read this lol: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ubuntu-16.04-Unity-Bugs | 12:08 |
BluesKaj | i read that 16.04 was going begin the transition to wayland, perhaps it was speculation, but tit didn't seem like it was | 12:13 |
lordievader | Hmm, seems a bit daring to me. | 12:15 |
MonkeyDust | when is 15.04 eol? | 13:44 |
MonkeyDust | !15.04 | 13:45 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download at http://releases.ubuntu.com/15.04/ - Read the release notes at http://ubottu.com/y/vivid | 13:45 |
Daekdroom | MonkeyDust, I think it's about 3 months after 15.10 is released | 13:45 |
MonkeyDust | ok, i'm not reinstalling it in my vm | 13:47 |
lotuspsychje | :p | 13:48 |
BluesKaj | OS support lasts 9 months afte release | 14:00 |
lotuspsychje | !release | 14:01 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 14:01 |
BluesKaj | except for LTS | 14:01 |
* lotuspsychje waits unpatient on 16.04 :p | 14:02 | |
BluesKaj | impatient even :-) | 14:02 |
MonkeyDust | silly verbal wit: the patient is impatient | 14:06 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 14:06 |
BluesKaj | and an unpatient is therefore not a patient | 14:08 |
* lotuspsychje feels like a paranoia patient addicted to the w3b | 14:09 | |
lotuspsychje | you skared him MonkeyDust | 14:10 |
MonkeyDust | patience... time will tell | 14:11 |
lotuspsychje | :p | 14:11 |
MonkeyDust | tiet veu e paafke | 14:13 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 14:13 |
lotuspsychje | ben oui | 14:13 |
lotuspsychje | avec a little grass derin | 14:14 |
lotuspsychje | ioria: good afternoon mate | 14:15 |
lotuspsychje | 38 users! we have a record i think | 14:16 |
pauljw | :) | 14:16 |
ioria | lotuspsychje, good afternoon to all of you ! | 14:16 |
pauljw | hi | 14:16 |
lotuspsychje | hey to u2 pauljw | 14:16 |
ioria | official ubuntu-youtube channel ? does it exist ? | 14:19 |
lotuspsychje | hmm not sure? | 14:19 |
ioria | i found only omgubuntu channel | 14:19 |
lotuspsychje | ive recently saw a list of all channels | 14:20 |
lotuspsychje | but cant recall where :p | 14:20 |
ioria | i could be useful .... with a lot of tutorial , and graphic video simulations ... and stuff | 14:21 |
lotuspsychje | yeah would be nice | 14:21 |
lotuspsychje | but not everyone approves the creation of new channels | 14:22 |
lotuspsychje | i once tryed to make ubuntu-ssd | 14:22 |
ioria | oh... i see | 14:22 |
ioria | and ? | 14:23 |
lotuspsychje | and was brutally denied by an 0p | 14:23 |
lotuspsychje | so i made ##linux-ssd | 14:23 |
ioria | ?_? | 14:23 |
lotuspsychje | ioria: because the channel name holds ubuntu, it needs approvement first | 14:23 |
lotuspsychje | ## are non-official channels | 14:24 |
ioria | go it | 14:24 |
ioria | got it | 14:24 |
lotuspsychje | ioria: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 14:26 |
lotuspsychje | what a list omg :p | 14:26 |
lotuspsychje | lol trivia is dead | 14:27 |
ioria | i'm wondering what it takes to be approved ... being a billioner hardware manufacturer ? ^_^ | 14:28 |
lotuspsychje | lol no i think it matters which 0p is replys at wich time | 14:29 |
lotuspsychje | and find it relevant to create | 14:29 |
ioria | oh... thanks for the info | 14:29 |
lotuspsychje | nop ioria :p | 14:29 |
MonkeyDust | dang, my 15.10 vm finds my NAS, but not my 14.04 shared folders | 14:32 |
MonkeyDust | bridged network | 14:33 |
lotuspsychje | weird | 14:33 |
lotuspsychje | router block? | 14:33 |
MonkeyDust | stupid ubuntu | 14:46 |
MonkeyDust | wish i was in windows | 14:46 |
MonkeyDust | (joke) | 14:47 |
pauljw | heheh | 14:47 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 14:47 |
lotuspsychje | MonkeyDust: if your getting too angry try this: http://news.softpedia.com/news/tutorial-for-microsoft-to-help-it-kill-linux-491638.shtml | 14:49 |
lotuspsychje | lolz | 14:49 |
MonkeyDust | no joke: in 2008 or 2009 i wrote as a user comment on a linux blog, that, in post-Ballmer times, Windows would become a "by-product" of MS and that they would focus on hardware and services ... it is now said that Windows 10 will indeed be the last release | 14:54 |
pauljw | i read that as win10 will be a rolling release that never goes away | 14:55 |
MonkeyDust | pauljw yes, something similar | 14:56 |
lotuspsychje | updates on w10 get forced now, unwanted | 14:56 |
pauljw | now i see where they're maybe building a linux distro too | 14:56 |
MonkeyDust | windows as a service, so to say | 14:56 |
pauljw | yep | 14:56 |
lotuspsychje | the time their developers get smarter, were 10 years later lol | 14:57 |
pauljw | :) | 14:57 |
pauljw | i figure that ms will claim to own linux once they have a distro... heheh... | 14:58 |
lotuspsychje | haha | 14:58 |
lotuspsychje | bill torvalds | 14:59 |
MonkeyDust | and the enter key will be patented by MS | 14:59 |
pauljw | lol | 14:59 |
lotuspsychje | :p | 14:59 |
lotuspsychje | still 75 million users downloaded w10 | 15:03 |
lotuspsychje | i will have to convince more dualboot users to loose it :p | 15:04 |
MonkeyDust | i have w10 in vmware, out of curiosity | 15:05 |
lotuspsychje | im curious what netstat does in w10 | 15:05 |
lotuspsychje | outgoing spy connections :p | 15:06 |
pauljw | no doubt, i have xp pro in virtualbox with no network connection. i consider windows to be a virus. my daughter has a school laptop that i will no allow on my network. | 15:07 |
pauljw | not* | 15:08 |
lotuspsychje | all win version are a security thread | 15:08 |
pauljw | :) | 15:08 |
lotuspsychje | full exploits and mallware | 15:08 |
lotuspsychje | if you scan every pc with malwarebytes you reach easy 300+ malwares | 15:09 |
pauljw | scary isn't it... | 15:09 |
lotuspsychje | and ppl trust their payed antivirus | 15:10 |
lotuspsychje | false feeling of security | 15:10 |
pauljw | they don't know any better, ms is what they were raised on. | 15:11 |
lotuspsychje | true | 15:11 |
lotuspsychje | i once helped a guy with his win pc, because he had so many virusses | 15:12 |
lotuspsychje | the guy bought antivirus2007 online, and payed 60$ for it | 15:13 |
lotuspsychje | but that package was itself a pack with 200 malwares inside lol | 15:13 |
pauljw | yeah, all to commom a practice. so glad to be an all linux home these days. | 15:15 |
lotuspsychje | same here | 15:15 |
BluesKaj | malware bytes generates a lot of false positives tho | 15:20 |
lotuspsychje | yeah cookies | 15:21 |
lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: but for a pc that never been cleaned for years, malwarebytes can help | 15:22 |
BluesKaj | yup, I suppose , lotuspsychje ...wife's windows pc is remarkably clear of malware | 15:24 |
OerHeks | a good botnet protects your pc from malware :-D | 15:25 |
