[05:00] <DIRT> anyone know how to get broadcom drivers working with no internet? the live usb has the drivers but the broadcom drivers dont install
[05:01] <well_laid_lawn> DIRT:  tried modprobing them ?
[05:02] <well_laid_lawn> you may have the wrong module loading which will need blacklisting
[05:07] <DIRT> havent tried modprobe.
[05:12] <DIRT> when i look at lsmod i see brcmsmac listed
[05:18] <DIRT> nope. it needs a firmware. instaling the debs off the usb drive doesnt work they just install the driver located elsewhere in the /
[05:18] <DIRT> wich isnt on my install
[06:24] <DIRT> downloaded a deb that had the firmware packaged works.
[06:25] <DIRT> also what works is not connecting to the internet, telling the installer to install 3rd party packages, and that installs the broadcom driver.
[06:26] <DIRT> if i connect to the internet 3rd party drivers dont work but could have been internet cutting out
[08:35] <diogenes_> finally after so many years apt autoremove actually purges the old kernels
[09:27] <xubuntu18i_fred> hello
[09:28] <Spass> hello xubuntu18i_fred
[09:29] <xubuntu18i_fred> i have a big prob
[09:30] <xubuntu18i_fred> after an update from 16.04.3 to 18.04 nor keyboard nor mouse at login screen
[09:32] <pmjdebru1jn> can you switch to a console using (Ctrl+Alt+F1) ?
[09:33] <pmjdebru1jn> does the keyboard/mouse work when you boot 18.04 from a live-usb/cd?
[09:33] <xubuntu18i_fred> nope, the keyboard is off (also the caps lock, numlock) and no mouse
[09:33] <pmjdebru1jn> is there anything special with your keyboard/mouse? is it a laptop? are the keyboard/mouse connected via a usb hub, or directly to the system
[09:34] <pmjdebru1jn> xubuntu18i_fred: does botting the older kernel from 16.04 via GRUB fix things?
[09:34] <xubuntu18i_fred> yes everything is ok with a live usb, keyboard usb wired behind the tower
[09:35] <xubuntu18i_fred> mouse logitech with unify key
[11:12] <Spass> I'm on 18.04 using Catfish 1.4.4, is it possible to make Catfish remember its window size when closing? right now it always starts a little bit too small for my liking and I need to enlarge it
[11:14] <Spass> if not, I would like to propose that feature for the future releases ( ping bluesabre )
[11:15] <pmjdebru1jn> or maybe just a more sensitive default window size :)
[11:15] <pmjdebru1jn> sensible
[11:18] <Spass> another possibility - enable "advanced hidden top secret option" to ~/.config/catfish/catfish.rc
[11:19] <Spass> like "window-width=1000" and "window-height=500"
[11:21] <Spass> s/to/in/
