| Maik | fawwaz: if you have a xubuntu support question just ask, casual talk is in #xubuntu-offtopic or #ubuntu-offtopic | 18:37 |
| fawwaz | sorry, i want to know why i keep failing to update the software after installing xubuntu, it keeps telling me that im not connected to the internet | 18:41 |
| fawwaz | *software updater | 18:41 |
| Maik | which xubuntu version? | 18:44 |
| fawwaz | latest | 18:52 |
| coconut | fawwaz, can you ping the internet on that machine? | 18:56 |
| fawwaz | yep, pinged google and working | 18:57 |
| coconut | and does apt work with updating packages? | 18:58 |
| fawwaz | it comes with several error before, and its working now. Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.13.0-19-generic | 19:00 |
| fawwaz | thanks, maybe i should pinged all the time to get the internet working | 19:01 |
| fawwaz | pinged several times after restart updating the system, figured out i've to click the connection to be connected... | 19:11 |
| coconut | fawwaz, you mean the nm-applet in your panel in top? | 19:13 |
| coconut | true, that is for almost all desktops afaik | 19:14 |
| fawwaz | yes, i'm using my android usb tethering right now to connect the internet | 19:15 |
| fawwaz | trying to figure out how to make my usb wifi dongle work rn | 19:15 |
| tomreyn | fawwaz: are you looking for support with getting that wifi dongle to work? if so, run this while online and post the resulting link: lspci -knn | grep -EA3 '(Network|Ethernet) controller' | nc termbin.com 9999 | 20:10 |
| tomreyn | and this: lsusb | nc termbin.com 9999 | 20:11 |
| fawwaz | at the terminal? | 20:11 |
| tomreyn | yes | 20:11 |
| tomreyn | in a terminal emulator | 20:11 |
| fawwaz | wow. it works. thank you very much. i've downloaded the driver actually (rtl8188fu ver. not the rtl8188ftv) and wondering how do i run that driver, again, thanks.. | 20:13 |
| tomreyn | i haven't done anything, the commands i provided were just for information gathering | 20:14 |
| tomreyn | it's possible that the kernel update you installed (and rebooted to?) made it work | 20:14 |
| fawwaz | need three days to get this dongle useful, been trying another distros but none of it works with this wifi dongle | 20:14 |
| fawwaz | first boot updating with several errors when apt-get update, software updater, also dongle didn't work. after 2 hours i restarted and installing the driver. it listed but didn't run. now i can sleep in peace | 20:18 |
| tomreyn | nice, nice | 20:26 |
| tomreyn | have a good night then | 20:26 |
| fawwaz | after i'm done with building websites and adding 114 products manually | 20:31 |
| fawwaz | does having a ethernet and wifi enabled will make my connection speed double too? | 20:31 |
| coconut | no internet connection is for eather one of the two | 20:32 |
