| xubuntu05w | hi there | 02:30 |
| xubuntu05w | early afternoon in south pacific, french new caledonia | 02:30 |
| xubuntu05w | can anybody explain me why my wifi connection doesn't work anylonger since I have decided to make a on shot try of a xubuntu 16 live usb ? | 02:31 |
| xubuntu05w | I'm a xubuntu 14 lts user and it worked very good until I had this stupid idea to test 16 lts. | 02:32 |
| xubuntu05w | Note that I made a test using a xubuntu 14 LTS live usb and my wifi work !!!! How can I fix it without making a new installation of xubuntu 14 | 02:34 |

| xubuntu45w | is there way to check if an install went properly? | 02:57 |
| xubuntu45w | When I was prompted to reboot my system after installing 16.10, the screen froze and I had to force shutdown. Everything seems to be fine now though. I just want to make sure there are no issues with the install. | 02:58 |
| xubuntu45w | From what I remember, the error message mentioned something like "error: no PCI controller, you may experience issues" and there was another line mentioning the encryption software I think | 02:59 |
| xubuntu45w | Anything? | 03:06 |
| xubuntu05w | it is very early in Europe. We have to wait | 03:07 |

| glitchd | any special tricks to getting floppy drives to work? | 04:29 |
| xubuntu44o | I remember I did it work few years ago, by simpli using mount | 04:31 |
| xubuntu44o | glitchd | 04:33 |
| xubuntu44o | I mean I mounted floppys | 04:33 |
| xubuntu44o | Is it an external USB floppy drive? | 04:36 |
| glitchd_ | xubuntu44o, no its an internal floppy that i just installed on the machine, it is an older machine tho | 04:36 |
| xubuntu44o | I guess floppy device is /dev/fd0 | 04:40 |
| xubuntu44o | should be | 04:40 |
| glitchd | yep it is | 04:40 |
| xubuntu44o | so "mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy | 04:41 |
| xubuntu44o | you have to create mount directory firs | 04:42 |
| xubuntu44o | you can use any directory you want | 04:42 |
| glitchd | im running the command now | 04:43 |
| xubuntu44o | you can first chenck filesystem integrity using fdisk | 04:43 |
| glitchd | mount: /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device | 04:43 |
| xubuntu44o | fdisk /dev/fd0 | 04:43 |
| glitchd | thats what the first command returned | 04:43 |
| glitchd | im not sure if the disks are any good tbh | 04:44 |
| glitchd | running fsck now | 04:44 |
| glitchd | fdisk: cannot open /dev/fd0: No such device or address | 04:44 |
| glitchd | thats from fsck | 04:45 |
| glitchd | so im still not sure if the drive is bad or the disk is bad itself | 04:45 |
| xubuntu44o | try this: If you start fdisk comman the use tab key to show autocompletion | 04:47 |
| xubuntu44o | will showyou available devices (at least it does here in my xubuntu) | 04:48 |
| glitchd_ | xubuntu44o, yep it lists the drive "fd0" | 04:50 |
| glitchd_ | but cannot open it | 04:50 |
| glitchd_ | fidk: cannot open /dev/fd0: no such device or address | 04:51 |
| glitchd_ | but the light comes on when i attempt to access it which makea me think just the disk itself is bad | 04:51 |
| xubuntu44o | glitchd, it could be the drive o the disk | 04:53 |
| xubuntu44o | how old is the drive? | 04:53 |
| xubuntu44o | have you ever use it recently | 04:53 |
| glitchd_ | only god knows at this point | 04:53 |
| xubuntu44o | ok | 04:54 |
| glitchd_ | im not sure which computer it came out of | 04:54 |
| glitchd_ | it was in a stash of hardware that i have | 04:54 |
| glitchd_ | rather it was in one of the towers that ihave and dont use anymore | 04:54 |
| xubuntu44o | you'd beter take it off, clean it and put it again | 04:54 |
| glitchd_ | but hardware none the less | 04:54 |
| glitchd_ | like open it and clean it? | 04:55 |
| glitchd_ | im really feeling like its the disks that are bad | 04:55 |
| glitchd_ | but at the same time, how could a pack of 20ish disks all go bad together | 04:55 |
| glitchd_ | unless they were stored on speaker magnet lol | 04:55 |
| xubuntu44o | my experience is that old aquipment get dirty | 04:56 |
| glitchd_ | true enough | 04:57 |
| xubuntu44o | I leave in a place like california, where there is a lot of dust on the air | 04:57 |
| glitchd_ | im in texas | 04:57 |
| xubuntu44o | ok | 04:58 |
| xubuntu44o | be carefull cleaning the drive, those are sensible | 04:59 |
| glitchd_ | yep yep | 04:59 |
| glitchd_ | ill tackle it tomorrow | 04:59 |
| glitchd_ | im tired as shit already | 04:59 |
| xubuntu44o | ok | 04:59 |
| xubuntu44o | nice to meet you | 04:59 |
| glitchd_ | you too bud, thx for the help | 05:00 |
| xubuntu44o | ;) | 05:00 |
| xubuntu44o | would you mind writing to me the result? | 05:01 |

| CRCurself | Hello. Any idea which routing daemons are used on xubuntu? I keep reading they are routed and gated, but have no man pages for them. Why is that? | 20:32 |
| CRCurself | I am learning about dynamic routing and routing daemons and would like to be pointed in the right direction. | 20:32 |
| CRCurself | Correction: I read that routed and gated can be found on most TCP/IP implementations | 20:33 |
| knome | can't help you with the thing itself, but anything that is said to work on ubuntu should work on xubuntu too | 20:40 |
| CRCurself | It's not a compatibility issue, more of a research one. I'm trying to figure out which routing daemons are used on my system. | 20:41 |
| knome | maybe you are looking for the package net-tools | 20:43 |
| knome | (and specifically, it's description and contents) | 20:43 |
| flux242 | what do you mean? There's netfilter in linux kernel and iptables in userspace | 20:43 |
| CRCurself | I could not find a manual page for netfilter. I'm wondering if there exist man pages for kernel processes or daemons? | 20:45 |
| xangua | Hello everyone, just installed 16.04 and security updates, after suspend and trying to resume the screen is black | 20:46 |
