| ironhoof | Hey I just installed xubuntu 16.04 on my netbook, it installs fine, updated and now it just sits on recovering journal, after I had hard reset it. It was just a blank screen before that. There is also a nomodeset on my kernel so its not that | 00:42 |

| ironhoof | Anyone know whats going on? | 00:43 |

| nu7shell | Hi | 04:25 |
| nikolam | I turned off lightdm with ' echo "manual" | sudo tee -a /etc/init/lightdm.override ' to save RAM, for thinking to use it as smallish web server | 05:01 |
| nikolam | maybe I should just uninstall desktop parts (12.04LTS)... | 05:01 |
| nikolam | Or reinstall newest LTS with minimal install | 05:02 |
| nikolam | Thinking of getting rid of Pulseaudio and how to have network working, without need to run NetworkManager (also so save some RAM) | 05:03 |
| nikolam | On plus side newest server brings ZFS by default. On minus side it's smallish 512MB machine | 05:05 |

| xubuntu48 | Hello I have installed Xubuntu and my WiFi is not working. Model of wireless usb adapter is 802AIN2, what can I do to get it working? | 20:46 |
| xubuntu95w | Yo guys, is there anyone around feeling like giving some basic help? | 20:53 |
| flocculant | xubuntu95w: just ask the question - if someone awake can answer they will | 20:54 |
| ax562 | xubuntu95w check for drivers | 20:54 |
| xubuntu95w | I have a problem with Xubuntu installation from a bootable USB Drive and a DVD. No matter which one I choose it doesn't go through the "Boot from CD/DVD" or just hangs with the underscore. Downloaded twice already, created bootable USB with both Rufus and Unetbootin, any ideas? | 20:58 |
| ax562 | xubuntu48w check for drivers | 21:00 |
| xubuntu48 | ax562 no drivers that i know of to download. When it is plugged into windows its listed as cd drive and has .exe file to install drivers for windows from it. | 21:05 |
| ax562 | so works on windows? | 21:06 |
| xubuntu48 | ax562 Yeah not sure how to it working on Linux though. | 21:06 |
| xubuntu48 | Get* | 21:07 |
| ax562 | check the model and manifacturer and look up linux driver download | 21:07 |
| knome | atheros dongles don't have the best support for linux.. | 21:08 |
| xubuntu48 | I have, Model 802AIN2. There doesnt seem to be any driver downloads because it comes with it on it. | 21:10 |
| knome | yes, the windows driver | 21:11 |
| xubuntu48 | What can i do with the windows driver? | 21:12 |
| knome | not much on linux | 21:12 |
| knome | as i said, dongles with an atheros chip have bad support on linux | 21:12 |
| xubuntu48 | Oh i would really like to use Linux, so hopefully there is a way. If you don't think its possible to get it working let me know, since you said this adapter has bad linux Support | 21:13 |
| knome | do you have any chance to try another adapter? | 21:14 |
| ax562 | or wired ethernet port connection? | 21:16 |
| xubuntu48 | I have another i could plug in but its a big problem and bricks the computer, makes it completely freeze. | 21:16 |
| knome | wired != wireless, but sure, that's also an option | 21:16 |
| knome | xubuntu48, that's probably not a good idea either then ;) | 21:16 |
| knome | what about a third one O:) | 21:16 |
| xubuntu48 | I can still plug it in if need to download stuff, but it will eventually freeze the computer. Sadly i dont have a third one | 21:18 |
| knome | just to explain why support is often bad; the hardware manufacturers do not share the specs on how their hardware works, so it's impossible to create linux drivers for the devices without reverse-engineering, which takes a lot of time (and means a developer with that time has to have that device and the motivation to make it work) | 21:19 |
| knome | with often cheap usb dongles it's often too easy to just buy a new one rather than try to reverse-engineer anything | 21:19 |
| xubuntu48 | Okay yeah | 21:20 |
| xubuntu48 | I have a few extra routers if i could somehow use that as wifi? lol | 21:21 |
| knome | you probably could with some soldering, but it's probably worth it, again considering how (relatively) cheap usb dongles are | 21:25 |
| xubuntu48 | Oh thought it might be easy then that. Well i guess ill have to wait until i can get a new one or something. Thank you for your help, and you too ax562 | 21:28 |
| knome | np, and before you get the new one, search a bit in the internet about compatibility :) | 21:29 |
| ax562 | :) | 21:29 |
| xubuntu48 | Ok :) bye | 21:29 |
| pavlushka | xubuntu48: I think you should post this issue to ubuntuforum or askubuntu | 21:43 |

| knome | pavlushka, first, they are gone already; second, that wouldn't help if there isn't any support for his devide | 21:53 |

| pavlushka | knome: in the mean time, I was reconnected, and everything happened in between, so missed, :) | 21:55 |
