[00:04] <skywalker> wooo loving Lubuntu!
[00:04] <skywalker> anyone here got a macbook running Lubuntu?
[04:43] <Shawn|i7-Q720M> anyone know how irda works in lubuntu?
[04:44] <Shawn|i7-Q720M> trying to set up hotsync with my old thinkpad's irda port
[04:44] <Shawn|i7-Q720M> for my old palm os device
[05:17] <Shawn|i7-Q720M> aww, I get "bash: /etc/modules: Permission denied" when trying to run "sudo echo ircomm_tty >> /etc/modules"
[08:02] <shawn196|R40> test
[08:02] <shawn196|R40> ah its working
[08:03] <shawn196|R40> irc from the slow pentium 4m laptop using lubuntu 32-bit.
[08:03] <shawn196|R40> anyone know how to setup irda ?
[08:05] <hateball> shawn196|R40: ask the real question instead
[08:05] <hateball> "I am trying to do X, I get error Y" etc
[08:06] <shawn196|R40> How do I check a machine's irda comm ports, if they are recognized?
[08:07] <hateball> shawn196|R40: I guess it is connected on pci bus? "lspci"
[08:07] <hateball> or if usb, "lsusb"
[08:15] <shawn196|R40> well, the ircomm port is not showing up on lspci
[08:15] <shawn196|R40> think my problem is lubuntu not picking up my thinkpad's irda port
[09:16] <reisei> shawn196|R40: not lubuntu, but kernel, you need driver for the irda port I guess
[09:16] <reisei> Why do you need it anyway? it's 2016
[09:17] <shawn196|R40> the year doesn't mean anything
[09:17] <shawn196|R40> I am trying to get jpilot to hotsync with my palm os devices
[09:17] <shawn196|R40> by infrared, yes I know the constraints though I still want it
[09:18] <shawn196|R40> I did a dmesg and found nsc-ircc
[09:20] <shawn196|R40> heres my dmesg nsc-ircc is in there http://hastebin.com/domusibuji.go
[09:26] <shawn196|R40> but nothing about irda
[09:26] <shawn196|R40> [   23.120282] nsc_ircc_open(), can't get iobase of 0x2f8
[09:27] <shawn196|R40> :(
[09:27] <shawn196|R40> and then it disables itself
[10:24] <shawn196|R40> brb going to check bios settings
[11:47] <shawn196|R40> I wonder if ubuntu supports thinkpad's irda port
[12:09] <asd__> hi
[12:10] <asd__> will lubuntu support any printer?
[14:27] <Shawn186> neat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3pWYMnpJ-c
