tewardthat was a question16:49
tewardnot a statement16:49
tewardso answer the question16:49
tewardwhich type of 'discussion' do you mean16:49

mate|55480channel*16:50
ouroumovIt's the only Ubuntu MATE channel16:50

pavlushkateward: again, why? is the coffee machine broke!16:59
pavlushka*broken16:59
tewardpavlushka: i assume you mean "is the machine broke again"17:00
tewardpavlushka: five people demanding a single coffee maker which can make up to 12 cups of coffee at once17:00
tewardi'm the fifth17:00
tewardthe coffee's gone17:00
tewardso i had to brew more17:00
tewardhence, no coffee.17:00
teward... until now that is17:00
teward:)17:00
pavlushkateward: yep, poor you, why this kind of things happens frequently only with you?17:00
tewardpavlushka: because reasons17:00
pavlushkateward: something is fishy, I smell conspiracy17:00
tewardpavlushka: that said, i need something around 4 cups a day to operate effectively so...17:01
pavlushkateward: is that like oil in the machine or grease?17:01
pavlushkamay be grease17:02
pavlushkateward: when I see your nick, it reminds me of coffee!17:03
tewardpavlushka: first cup is to turn on the machine, second is to get it started up to full power, third and fourth is putting more fuel into the tank17:03
bekksSounds like your cups are too small :D17:04
pavlushkarofl17:04
tewardbekks: or the coffee cools off too fast, or I distribute my coffee intake over a 12 hour period of time :)17:04
bekksConsider getting 20oz cup :)17:05

musashihello there?21:44
ouroumovhi musashi21:45
musashihey ouroumov21:46
musashifirst time on here and trying linux21:46
musashiive been reading about ubuntu mate and how easy it is to install on older pc's21:48
ouroumovYup21:48
ouroumovYou're booted into the live session?21:49
musashiive got it installed on an old compaq presario f500 little shitter and it seems to be running fine however there is no wifi connection21:49
musashiive tried a few command line fixes but nothing21:50
ouroumovIs this the machine you're typing on?21:50
musashiyes it is21:50
ouroumovYou're connected by cable I take it?21:50
musashiyes that is correct21:51
ouroumovStart by clicking the network icon in the top right corner, disable wifi for a while then enable it back on21:51
musashiI have nothing related to wireless on the dropdown menu unfortunately21:53
ouroumovIs your system fully up to date by the way? There's been a number of bugfixes in Networkmanager since 16.04 was released21:53
ouroumovmusashi, that's weird, you should at least have "Enable Networking" and "Enable WiFi"21:54
musashiyes, ive updated everything i could find after install21:54
musashiyeah i thought that was weird as well21:54
ouroumovDid you went through the Driver & Firmware install steps from the "Welcome" Splash screen?21:54
musashiyep ive tried all the additional driver steps21:56
ouroumovOkay21:56
musashiit gave me one proprietary driver which i used21:57
ouroumovPlease post the output of the command: lshw -C network | nc termbin.com 999921:57
musashithanks will do21:57
fefo_hi21:59
ouroumovhello fefo_21:59
fefo_:)21:59
musashithis is what i was given22:00
musashiWARNING: you should run this program as super-user.22:00
musashiWARNING: output may be incomplete or inaccurate, you should run this program as super-user.22:00
musashihttp://termbin.com/i92222:00
ouroumovThanks22:00
ouroumovOkay so weird, very weird22:00
fefo_compiz works in ubuntu-mate?22:00
ouroumovfefo_, yes22:01
ouroumovfefo_, you can enable it via MATE Tweak22:01
fefo_ty22:01
musashiyeah so not sure22:02
musashiis there an easy way to install a microsoft wireless driver?22:03
ouroumovNo22:03
ouroumovYou can't install MS drivers on Linux22:04
musashiok22:04
ouroumovmusashi, fyi I googled "ubuntu BCM4311 wl" but I'm currently using my phone's hotspot and it takes forever to load pages22:04
ouroumovMaybe you'll be faster at it than me22:04
musashino worries, i appreciate it22:05
musashiwhat would you need?22:05
ouroumovWell I'm not sure, things like that depends on the hardware. It can be as simple as adding a parameter in /etc/modprobe.d/module.conf and as complicated as compiling source code22:06
ouroumovCan you please also post the output of the following command: ifconfig | nc termbin.com 999922:07
musashiwill do22:09
musashihttp://termbin.com/g16k22:10
musashithis is what it gave me22:10
ouroumovVery weird. I mean first your Ethernet doesn't show up in lshw, then your wifi doesn't get assigned a logical name22:11
ouroumovI don't get it22:11
musashiis the laptop too old maybe?22:12
musashii ran a comand in terminal and it showed my wireless card was present22:12
ouroumovThat's not usually a problem, though there have been a troubling trend towards regression lately22:13
ouroumovmusashi, yes, the lshw command did that too, you can see the output if you open that first link you gave me22:13
ouroumovBut it didn't list the cable connection, for some reason22:13
ouroumovI'm starting to wonder if wifi and cable may not be handled by the same card, but I've never seen that before22:14
ouroumovOh maybe it's a permission issue, hang on22:14
ouroumovPlease post the output of the command: sudo lshw -C network | nc termbin.com 999922:14
ouroumov(I added the "sudo")22:15
ouroumovIt will require your password22:15
musashiok thanks, sorry if im not much help this is my first time running anything linux lol22:15
musashican do but ive run soe other things that required password and it wouldnt allow me to type anything22:15
musashiill try this22:15
ouroumovno musashi22:15
ouroumovIt's not that it doesn't allow it22:16
ouroumovYou're typing your password in the dark in the terminal22:16
ouroumovThere's no stars echoed22:16
ouroumovIt's normal22:16
musashigot ya22:16
musashiUse netcat.22:17
ouroumovDamn I still can't load pages22:17
ouroumovOh right22:17
musashiyep it worked, you were right22:17
ouroumovBut all you got was "Use netcat"?22:18
ouroumovProbably because it timed out too soon22:18
ouroumovhm22:18
ouroumovThen just type "sudo lshw -C network" in the terminal, copy the output with CTRL+SHIFT+C and paste it to http://paste.ubuntu.com/22:19
=== pavlushka is now known as Guest31425
musashiwill do22:19
ouroumovEhr I still can't load pages22:20
ouroumovYou know what musashi, maybe it'd be better for you to ask on our forums22:21
ouroumovPeople with decent connections will be able to take a look22:21
=== Guest31425 is now known as pavlushka
ouroumovForums are here: https://ubuntu-mate.community/ if you post give the output of "sudo lshw -C network", "ifconfig" as well as the version of Ubuntu MATE you're using and your up to date status.22:23
musashiwill do ill give it a try there thanks22:23
musashithanks for the help!22:23
ouroumovSorry I couldn't be more useful. :x22:23
