[13:58] My laptop's wifi doesn't work on the LiveUSB, but it does work after installation [14:00] i have already installed it [14:00] presently i am using a wifi adapter [14:00] What model computer do you have? [14:01] sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer [14:01] after i typed this [14:01] my wifi adapter has also stopped working [14:02] actually i have an old dell latitude series laptop [14:03] now it shows that wifi is disabled by hardware switch [14:05] what should i do? [14:11] I'm not sure to be honest [14:11] What model computer do you have, specifically? [14:12] lovkesh77, have you actually disabled the wifi by a hardware switch then? [14:12] latitude d610 [14:13] then what should i do? [14:14] where did you find out you should install the package you told you installed? [14:16] Try pressing Fn +F3 to see if it turns it back on [14:20] i just googled it [14:21] fn + f3 does not seem to work [14:21] lovkesh77: restart network-manager [14:22] sudo systemctl restart network-manager.service [14:23] i have done it [14:23] i cant still enable wifi [14:25] only i can use ethernet [14:27] what should i do?? [14:27] lovkesh77: what does "nmcli d wifi" say? [14:28] (i'm late to this party, but it looks like you installed firmware?) [14:28] i would reboot after that [14:29] * SSID MODE CHAN RATE SIGNAL BARS SECURITY [14:29] nmcli d wifi says this [14:30] yeah there's no wireless interface [14:30] do you know if wireless works on this machine? [14:30] yes it works [14:30] surely [14:31] i have used it while using windows previously [14:31] what does lspci tell you? [14:32] xubuntu@xubuntu-Latitude-D610:/$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller (rev 03) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW [14:34] which kernel? === Executioner` is now known as Executioner [14:34] what does that mean? [14:35] i am using xubuntu 15.10 [14:36] lovkesh77_: ok; try this [14:36] lspci -vvnn | grep -A 9 Network [14:36] what's the output? [14:37] xubuntu@xubuntu-Latitude-D610:~$ lspci -vvnn | grep -A 9 Network 03:03.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4318] (rev 02) Subsystem: Dell Wireless 1370 WLAN Mini-PCI Card [1028:0005] Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- ok; and you already installed the b43 firmware. correct? [14:40] (btw, you have a BCM4318 chip. write it down) [14:41] you are now missing the driver. [14:41] you need the b43 driver which you can get from here: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 [14:42] and then read this (twice) and follow instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#Installing%20STA%20drivers [14:42] and stop installing things just because someone told you so. [14:42] kk [14:42] you're missing the driver that's all [14:43] otherwise lspci would tell us which driver is in use [14:43] follow the instructions. you'll get it going. [16:53] when will proprietary AMD display driver work on 16.04 ? [16:55] Hi. I'm looking for GPG signatures on the release images. [17:01] pflanze: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/16.04/release/ [17:04] Thanks! [17:06] JeZxLee: That depends on AMD making it work with the current X server. [17:09] krytarik - hope it's soon - running Win 10 on my AMD desktop and would like to install Xubuntu soon [17:14] I really wish X would stop crashing whenever I add or remove external monitors on my laptop [17:14] Maybe I should be blaming the proprietary amd drivers I'm using [17:29] Hi ! I have a question about swap... I've just installed Xubuntu 16.04LTS with a " / " " /home " and "swap" partitions and encrypt my home folder.. and just after I tried to run a ecryptfs-setup-swap and I have an error message saying: [17:30] I dont have any swap space defined.. [17:30] any reason? [17:31] and when I check on gparted I have a swap partition but "type: unknown" [17:35] what is better for install, xubuntu 14.04 or xubuntu 16.04? [21:51] there is no log viewer in Xubuntu 16.04 ? [21:56] not one specifically designed for that purpose [22:33] where should i go to ask questions/seek help with using a camcorder with ubuntu? [22:34] #ubuntu ? [22:35] trying in there too [22:35] figured might find more advanced multimedia people in here. [22:36] i don't know why that would be so, nonetheless you should keep questions in one channel at a time [22:37] xubuntu is a multimedia distro.. so i figured it was worth a shot. [22:37] That's UbuntuStudio, not Xubuntu. [22:37] Unit193, or maybe we don't know what we're doing (: [22:37] woop. you're right. my bad.. [22:38] knome: Ooooh! I'll go for that one, I have no idea. ;D [22:48] Hello. How much space does Xubuntu need? We've allocated an about 72GB partition to /, but it ran full during install. Can this be real? [22:48] nope [22:49] Well, it shows 5% free space now, but one of the error messages in /var/log/ that was recommended we have a look at showed "out of space" [22:49] So, doubly odd then. [22:49] I have it on a disk smaller than you allocated to it.. [22:49] So why would it fill it with 68 MB of stuff? [22:49] MB/ [22:49] GB [22:49] i installed it on a 10GB partition while testing [22:49] and no problems [22:49] You sure? [22:50] Yes, it also ran until almost the very end until it failed. [22:50] (Using encrypted home btw.) [22:50] (But no dmcrypt) [22:50] i've installed xubuntu on 4 and 8 gig partitions.. i use separate for /home. [22:50] Check where the space went, perhaps du -h on /tmp/ and /var/ ? [22:59] pflanze, Is this in a vm where the host is running out of room possibly? [23:00] No, plain eee pc laptop. [23:00] k [23:00] Rebooting from the live image now. [23:04] actually just going to reinstall. [23:05] This time directly choosing the "install now" button. [23:05] (No time to fiddle around and figure out what went on.) [23:09] Could the home encryption have been the issue? [23:17] I switched to the second screen (ctl-alt-2) and 3 etc. in the search for a login / shell prompt, which I didn't get (just blank black screens), [23:18] then went back to screen 1 (installer in X), now the X mouse pointer is gone. [23:23] Found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1568604 [23:23] Launchpad bug 1568604 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "Mouse cursor lost when unlocking with Intel graphics" [High,Confirmed] [23:23] Now if only I could run a shell command? [23:23] While running the installer. [23:23] how can I change the Xubuntu XFCE menu button appearance? I know how to change themes and icons but can't find a way to do this though I have seen people who change these [23:35] gump744, right click on it, choose panel -> panel preferences, then go to items tab, select whisker menu and click the config button [23:35] that's how it works here on 16.04 at least [23:38] eh apparently you can right click it and just choose properties... [23:40] geez how did i miss that...but how do you add a new icon? do you have to create a file somehow? [23:40] oh there's probably some dir where you can place icons, not sure about that [23:41] there's /usr/share/icons/ so i'd try in ~/.local/share/icons/ [23:42] just guessing now though [23:45] urraka: usr/share/icons is mostly icon themes for system....three of the icon options from the whisker menu properties are in there but I can't find all the others-.local/share/icons has a few folders but its mostly google icons [23:46] tried selecting the icons to see a path but you can't [23:49] gump744, i found a bunch of app icons in /usr/share/pixmaps/ [23:49] thanks will have a look [23:50] ah yep that looks like the bulk of them...so do I just find an icon online and copy it there as a png? how do I make sure the size is right? [23:52] i imagine it will get resized to fit [23:53] thanks [23:58] Problem: fresh install, "iwconfig" shows a network interface, but none is configured, and nm-connection-editor doesn't have anything on wireless. [23:58] How comes? [23:58] We didn't install the binary drivers. But given that iwconfig shows an interface...?
