| K_K_N | hi all | 11:23 |
| paddatrapper | Hi K_K_N | 11:48 |
| nsnzero | can i add a physical disk to a virtual machine - i only see the option of adding virtual drives | 11:55 |
| MaNI | you can | 12:04 |
| MaNI | just select 'custom storage' and then put the dev inside the text field | 12:06 |
| theblazehen | Yeah, that works. /me has 13 disks passed through to a vm that way | 12:08 |
| K_K_N | hi paddatrapper | 12:08 |
| K_K_N | can somebody intepret this log for me, I unplugged all USB devices from my laptop then ran tail -f /var/log/syslog in terminal | 12:10 |
| K_K_N | I then plugged USB Printer HP PSC 1315 to each of the usb ports on my laptop (which is not working) | 12:10 |
| K_K_N | I then unplugged an replugged my wireless mouse then 3G modem and then connected to 3G network | 12:11 |
| K_K_N | the issue is my printer seems to display on lsusb when I intially plug it in then disappears | 12:11 |
| K_K_N | but I am not sure what to make of the results I got | 12:11 |
| K_K_N | https://paste.ubuntu.com/24426135/ | 12:12 |
| K_K_N | any ideas? | 12:12 |
| theblazehen | K_K_N: Can you run a `dmesg -w` and do it again? | 12:13 |
| K_K_N | theblazehen, ok but I will try on the one port since my mouse and modem is plugged onto the other 2 or do you want me to try each USB port again? | 12:14 |
| theblazehen | You can do it with just one I think | 12:14 |
| K_K_N | ok I unplugged the printer then ran the command now plugged it in a again I will paste it in pastebin | 12:16 |
| K_K_N | ok sorry have to do it again | 12:18 |
| K_K_N | give me a sec | 12:18 |
| nsnzero | could be a driver problem K_K_N | 12:21 |
| nsnzero | MaNI: thanks | 12:23 |
| nsnzero | K_K_N: is it an hp 1330 laser printer ? | 12:25 |
| K_K_N | https://paste.ubuntu.com/24426469/ | 12:25 |
| K_K_N | nsnzero, HP PSC 1315, I installed the HP software for ubuntu | 12:26 |
| K_K_N | theblazehen, sorry I used the ubuntu pastebin cause the link above asks me to click the street signs then the mountains and apparently I do not know what a street sign or a mountain is | 12:27 |
| nsnzero | K_K_N: this may help https://askubuntu.com/questions/345856/does-ubuntu-support-hp-1320-printer | 12:27 |
| K_K_N | hahaha | 12:27 |
| K_K_N | nsnzero, ok let me check from just scheming it I have done the hplip part | 12:29 |
| K_K_N | I will check if there is anything else I did not try | 12:29 |
| nsnzero | sometimes you need to log out and log back in / reboot to get the new stuff to be loaded | 12:31 |
| nsnzero | take care guys - K_K_N hope it work out | 12:32 |
| nsnzero | have a good afternoon everyone | 12:32 |
| K_K_N | thanks nsnzero | 12:32 |
| K_K_N | I hope as well cause now everytime I wanna print and scan I have to go to an internet cafe | 12:33 |
| nsnzero | its just a matter of fiddling around K_K_N - took me some time to get mine to connect to a ricoh printer - turns out i had to add myself to the printer group | 12:35 |
| MaNI | have you verified the cable is good? in the past I've had issues like that just because of the cable, those printer usb cables tend to be very prone to being faulty for some reason | 12:36 |
| nsnzero | K_K_N: sudo usermod -aG lpadmin username | 12:37 |
| K_K_N | MaNI, yes I bought a new cable | 12:39 |
| K_K_N | I tested the old cable on a windows machine it did not work then borrowed a cable that was working and the printer worked so now bought a new cable and trying on ubuntu and not working | 12:40 |
| nsnzero | did it print on windows ? | 12:42 |
| K_K_N | yes | 12:42 |
| nsnzero | try adding yourself to lpadmin | 12:42 |
| K_K_N | well that was with the borrowed cable but never tried with new cable | 12:42 |
| K_K_N | nsnzero, ok using the same command above? | 12:43 |
| nsnzero | sudo usermod -aG lpadmin $USER | 12:44 |
| nsnzero | logout for it to work as well | 12:45 |
| nsnzero | chat later | 12:45 |
| K_K_N | ok cool let me try that | 12:45 |
| K_K_N | brb | 12:45 |
| K_K_N | theblazehen, any ideas after reading the logs? | 12:54 |
| theblazehen | K_K_N: Sorry, was afk. Just read them now | 12:54 |
| theblazehen | > disabled by hub (EMI?), re-enabling... | 12:55 |
| theblazehen | EMI could be Electro magnetic interference, how long is the cable? | 12:55 |
| K_K_N | hmm... let me measure it | 12:56 |
| theblazehen | Just roughly | 12:56 |
| theblazehen | 2 meters? | 12:56 |
| theblazehen | Is it a laptop? | 12:56 |
| K_K_N | yep around 2 meters | 12:58 |
| K_K_N | it is a laptop | 12:58 |
| theblazehen | Is it plugged in? | 12:58 |
| theblazehen | If so, try unplug it? | 12:58 |
| K_K_N | its unplugged now | 12:59 |
| theblazehen | gtg for a while, but see if it works now | 13:00 |
| K_K_N | hmm... Electro Magnetic Interference... what could cause that? | 13:00 |
| K_K_N | I have a wireless mouse could that be it? | 13:00 |
| K_K_N | got disconnected there | 13:08 |
| K_K_N | so Electro Magnetic Interference what would cause that | 13:08 |
| chesedo | inetpro: i've just created the meeting g+ event and sent the email... could you do the tweet? | 15:53 |

| K_K_N | anyone can recommend a good software to read the sms of a Nokia CS-19 Internet stick? | 18:20 |
| K_K_N | I see wammu in the repository will that work? | 18:22 |
| nsnzero | hi K_K_N | 18:25 |
| K_K_N | nsnzero, do you know of any good ones you can recommend, reading the internet is always mixed reviews so one can never be sure | 18:27 |
| nsnzero | K_K_N: this is something i am not familar with | 18:29 |
| nsnzero | but i see wammu and gammu been used | 18:29 |
| K_K_N | I installed wammu | 18:32 |
| K_K_N | does not see it, I think its looking for an actual phone | 18:32 |
| smile | I didn't know about this reggae musician https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eek-A-Mouse ;3 | 18:36 |
| nsnzero | https://deadlockprocess.wordpress.com/2010/12/05/send-receive-sms-messages-using-wammu-and-a-huawei-e160-dongle-in-ubuntu-10-04/ | 18:36 |
| nsnzero | hi smile | 18:36 |
| smile | hi! :D | 18:36 |
| smile | https://www.last.fm/user/geoffreydebelie/library/artists <- nice overview, really well done by last.fm | 18:37 |
| K_K_N | thanks nsnzero, why is it when I search I never find these sites yet you are able to | 18:52 |
| nsnzero | i use duck duck go K_K_N | 18:57 |
| K_K_N | hmm... I used the same | 18:58 |
| K_K_N | ok I will have to look past the first page I guess | 18:58 |
| K_K_N | lol | 18:58 |
| nsnzero | that is strange - but i almost never go past the first couple of links | 18:58 |
| K_K_N | is there a way to sudo an app using the GUI from the desktop? | 18:59 |
| K_K_N | I am getting this message when trying to search for devices using wammu | 19:01 |
| K_K_N | You don't have permissions for /dev/ttyACM1 device! Maybe you need to be member of dialout group. | 19:01 |
| K_K_N | and the list goes on for all | 19:01 |
| K_K_N | so maybe I need to add myself somewhere or run the app using sudo command? | 19:02 |
| nsnzero | you can start any app from the terminal with sudo | 19:02 |
| nsnzero | add yourself to the dialout group | 19:02 |
| K_K_N | where are they located by default? | 19:02 |
| K_K_N | ok how would I add myself to dial out gtoup? | 19:03 |
| nsnzero | to find an app location type in a terminal : which name_of_app | 19:04 |
| nsnzero | sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER | 19:05 |
| K_K_N | ok so logout and login again to take effect | 19:06 |
| nsnzero | yes K_K_N | 19:06 |
| K_K_N | thanks nsnzero great help | 19:06 |
| K_K_N | brb | 19:06 |
| nsnzero | no problem | 19:06 |
| nsnzero | evening theblazehen | 19:08 |
| nsnzero | theblazehen: some bedtime reading you might enjoy https://github.com/Hack-with-Github/Free-Security-eBooks-from-PacktPub | 19:10 |
| K_K_N | back | 19:13 |
| K_K_N | ok not getting the errors now but it still not finding the modem so now back to searching for some other app | 19:14 |
| nsnzero | i think the modem will accept AT commands to pull sms's of it | 19:17 |
| nsnzero | https://github.com/colins44/gsm-sms | 19:20 |
| nsnzero | K_K_N: consider getting a cheap android phone as a replacement for your usb dongle - load kde connect or something similar and you will have exactly what you need regarding smsing plus the wifi-hot spot | 19:23 |
| K_K_N | nsnzero, and just think I started this process just because I could not remember the number for the sim in my 3G to log onto the website to check my data usage | 19:25 |
| nsnzero | ahh -that reminded me of something when i used to use a dongle https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/modem-manager-gui/ | 19:28 |
| nsnzero | K_K_N: sorry it took so long for me to recall that app | 19:31 |
| nsnzero | hope it works as needed | 19:31 |
| K_K_N | nsnzero, no worries thanks I am busy installing the GUI now lets see if that does the trick | 19:36 |
| K_K_N | wow nsnzero, that is exactly what I needed | 19:37 |
| K_K_N | thanks a million | 19:37 |
| nsnzero | no problem - glad to help | 19:38 |
| nsnzero | good night all | 19:39 |
| nsnzero | sleep well | 19:39 |
| K_K_N | good night nsnzero | 19:40 |
