I had to get a physical Internet connection to download the broadcom wireless driver. [16:27] ok [16:28] I'm on 12.04. Hesitant to upgrade [16:28] if data isnt a prob you should use 14.04 [16:28] most likely would have had the drivers in already [16:29] when is the next lts version coming out.. in a couple months? [16:29] you should be able to upgrade to 14.04 [16:29] next lts is in a couple of months [16:29] If I upgrade, will I need to download the broadcom wireless driver again? [16:30] best would be to download the iso then run it live from dvd or flash and see [16:30] Should I wait for the next LTS? [16:30] well a few of us are sticking on 14.04 till 16.04 is running well [16:31] inetpro advise^ [16:31] or advice [16:31] Kilos, want to know how IPv4 subnetting works? [16:31] ohi superfly [16:31] http://serverfault.com/questions/49765/how-does-ipv4-subnetting-work [16:32] How do I save the broadcom wireless driver and re-install it, if necessary? [16:32] you will have the package [16:32] in /var/cache/apt/archives/ [16:33] you can save all downloaded and installed packages to media [16:33] have you got a flash disk spare [16:33] one easy command can save it all for you [16:33] Sorry, I'm not clued up? I mean, how do I save it to a flash drive? [16:34] ok you plug flash in [16:34] Iqbal: do you have lots of data available to download stuff? [16:34] better if you can format it with an easy name [16:35] oh ya take over inetpro [16:35] * inetpro prefers LTS versions [16:35] cloud stuff there too [16:35] Sorry, have to go, be back in a while. Thanks [16:35] Kilos: no, no [16:35] oh [16:36] others here are already on the alpha version of 16.04 [16:36] yes ut he is new [16:36] but [16:36] so need to learn more before jumping in like that [16:37] and alpha and beta is never same as the release [16:37] if data is available, I always advise newbies to download multiple versions [16:37] play with it [16:38] in fact install fedora, install Debian, install all kinds of different distributions [16:39] see for yourself [16:42] http://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=popularity [16:43] install them all 😊 [16:46] * inetpro can't wait to see a stable converged Ubuntu [16:46] no man [16:46] what? [16:47] install ubuntu or even better kubuntu [16:47] and he has a funny laptop i think [16:47] that's for me and you Kilos [16:48] was a prob just to get it to see the dvd [16:48] the young ones must learn it all [16:48] nono [16:48] they can learn from ubuntu then change if they like [16:49] they need a good basic where help is available anf then change once they are comfy with linux [16:50] ai! [16:50] what ai! [16:50] there's no single strategy to keep them here [16:50] like try telling oom jan to try fedora [16:52] oom Jan knows more than you think [16:52] don't underestimate him [16:53] but I agree with you [16:54] just tough to decide what to install just before a new release [16:55] guess it's always best to install the tried and tested [16:55] oh he knows lots more than me already, i see him doing stuff when helped on the list [16:55] but he wont try another linux [16:56] im sure [16:56] and im sure unity will keep getting better [16:57] if data int a prob doing running releases might be the way to go [16:57] if it want for data id still be moving every 6 months [17:01] but now im happy on kde so anything else will be just for playing with [17:04] at the office I still run on 12.04 [17:04] 12.04 was a good release [17:04] i have it in unity on old p4 [17:05] but bento 14.04 is quicker than unity 12.04 [17:06] why is mint #1 on that list? [17:07] light [17:07] unity chased many [17:07] mate in ubuntu is similar i think [17:09] anyone have tips on the best way to share some tv shows I have with family? [17:09] they could stream with plex, but i was thinking of putting it somewhere for them to download [17:09] what ever happened to that open ftp server in za [17:18] Damn, mint has highest rank atm.. === qwebirc52009 is now known as Iqbal [17:34] Hi [17:34] wb Iqbal [17:34] Thanks [17:34] ok lets see how far you have got with 12.04 [17:35] have you done your pdatesd and upgrades [17:35] updates [17:36] I have not done anything, too scared to stuff it up. [17:36] lol ok ill help you [17:37] once it is updated it will run better [17:37] I have been going through my stuff.. I have a micro SD card with an adapter, I think I downloaded 14.04 on it [17:37] you know how to find and use a terminal [17:38] Some time ago. How do I check? [17:38] how do you check what? [17:38] Yes, know how to find terminal [17:38] ctrl+alt+t [17:38] If it is Ubuntu 14 [17:39] oh that you will need to boot from i think [17:40] you have the iso on that card, bootable? [17:41] I am sceptical about trying to boot, as I couldn't get past the bios password. I still don't know how come the Ubuntu CD started [17:41] your bios must be set to boot from cd [17:41] Ok [17:41] so dont worry [17:41] How do I save the broadcom wireless driver? [17:42] ok [17:42] tap the home icon on the left [17:43] Ok [17:43] then at the top you will see home and to the left a bit a drive [17:43] tick there and you should see a / [17:43] choose that [17:44] that is your root folder [17:44] in there you double click var [17:44] Sorry I don't see it [17:45] ok what do you see [17:45] do you see the word home [17:45] A search bar and below it, recent apps [17:46] which icon on the left did you tick [17:46] the second one from the top is your home [17:46] might be called files i think [17:46] The circle [17:47] Dash home [17:47] yes [17:47] home [17:47] the top is dash for opening installed apps [17:47] OK [17:48] ok you see the word home at the top left [17:48] just left of it will be some small character or a drive [17:49] Sorry, when I click on the dash home, I don't see any other home [17:51] wsait im booting 12.04 [17:51] the icon below dash is what? [17:51] Home folder [17:52] thats the one you want [17:52] Ok [17:53] right [17:53] at the top left you see home [17:53] Yes [17:54] with a tiny mark to the left of it [17:54] tick that mark [17:54] Yes [17:54] then you should see a drive and home and home [17:54] tick the drive [17:54] Shows another home [17:55] what is to the left of the 2 homes [17:55] Opens number of folders [17:55] you see bin boot and more [17:55] Yes [17:56] go down to var and double click it [17:56] Done [17:56] then do the same with cache [17:56] then apt [17:56] then archives [17:57] Done [17:57] ok that folder has all you packages in [17:57] they go away if not set to stay there [17:58] Can I save it to a DVD? [17:58] but if you scroll through there you will see the driver you downloaded [17:59] you can save that whole archives folder yes [18:00] you can also jst drag and drop it on your desktop or onto a flash that you have opened first [18:01] Thanks [18:01] yw [18:02] but you will find everything works faster once you have got updates [18:03] I clicked on Send to my flash drive. When I open the flash drive, it shows the archives and partial folder but the partial folder is blank [18:04] dont worry about the partial [18:04] things only show once updated [18:05] Sorry the archives folder doesn't show the driver [18:06] now you need to decide if you want to get 12.04 running properly first or if you want to install 14.04 and take the chance that the driver you have doesnt work in 14.04 [18:06] where did you get the driver [18:06] open home folder and look in downloads [18:07] I connected to a friend's physical Internet connection and downloaded the driver [18:07] check in downloads [18:07] or in you browsers downloads folder [18:08] I copied and pasted the driver now to my flash drive [18:08] ok [18:08] have you got it working yet [18:08] 12.04 i mean [18:09] with wifi [18:09] Sorry, when I connected to the physical Internet connection, I used the update manager to download the driver [18:09] Yes, the wireless is working [18:09] are you online with the lappy now [18:09] yay [18:10] I am typing to you via my tablet, and have laptop on my lap [18:10] can you get the laptop online' [18:11] I can connect to internet via laptop [18:11] ok so [18:11] lets get an irc client first [18:11] then you can chat here with that [18:11] Ok [18:12] tablets frighten me [18:12] on lappy do ctrl+alt+t [18:12] I use them a lot, hardly use laptop [18:12] a terminal should open [18:13] Done [18:13] type in [18:13] sudo apt-get install hexchat [18:15] It does something, then E: unable to locate package hexchat [18:16] ok [18:16] do sudo apt-get update [18:17] Done [18:18] now do sudo apt-get install hexchat synaptic [18:19] Package not available [18:19] which one [18:20] E: unable to locate package hexchat.
