LuisI can´t connect to wifi in xubuntu21:10
mrkrampsLuis, xubuntu version and wifi chipset?21:13
Luis Intel GM965 Express Chipset, Xubuntu 16.04.2 for 32 bits21:16
mrkrampsthe former is not a wifi chipset21:17
Luissorry, i am a beginner, so I don´t know a lot21:19
mrkrampsbuildin wifi device or usb stick?21:19
Luisbuildin21:20
mrkrampstry terminal command lspci21:20
LuisAnd then?21:21
mrkrampshave a look at the command's output21:22
Luisok, done21:24
mrkrampsyou may at leat guess which of the listed devices in the output might be your wifi chip21:27
LuisIs it the host bridge?21:32
LuisForgot it, it isn´t...21:33
LuisOk, I think is this one: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY21:35
mrkrampssounds goo21:35
mrkrampsd21:35
mrkrampsLuis, go to settings and restrcted drivers21:38
Luisok21:38
mrkrampsthe dialog should show an entry 'Broadcom B43 wireless driver'21:39

LuisIt says they are not available drivers21:42
mrkrampsstrange21:44
mrkrampswell, we can try doing this manually:21:44
mrkrampssudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source broadcom-sta-common broadcom-sta-source21:44
mrkrampsand when finished:21:44
mrkrampssudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43-installer21:44
Luisit says it can´t localize the packages21:46
mrkrampsLuis, first or second command?21:48
LuisFirst and second :(21:48
mrkrampsi guess, the multiverse repository is not activated then21:49
mrkrampsLuis, settings → software & updates21:52
LuisBut I had already activated it21:53
mrkrampsand updated the package cache?21:53
LuisNo, because i can´t connect to the internet21:54
Luisbut now i realize i have to connect by ethernet21:54
mrkrampswell, of course … any kind of internet connection might be helpful for installing packages =D21:58
mrkrampsLuis, and check settings → restricted drivers first when connected21:58
LuisOk, sorry for making losing your time, I had already solved it, thanks bro :)21:58
mrkrampsyou're welcome21:59
OtherHey all. I have my monitor for my linux box about 7 feet away from me. I want to scale up the desktop so that the menus and icons are big. I don't know whether that's resolution (on a LCD) or a setting in Xfce.22:09
mrkrampsOther, appearance settings i guess, increase font size22:11
mrkrampsor use a custom dpi setting22:12
OtherOk thanks   font size and tweaking the panel size makes it much better22:15
