[08:37] [telegram] There is a advanced network manager but I'm not able to connect/ don't know how to in it. Network manager doesn't read both lan Nor my wifi dongle [08:45] sorry I'm busy with other things [08:45] [telegram] Help later ? [08:48] You're on telegram; people will help/reply when they can. [08:48] [telegram] Sure cool 😇 [08:48] (Lubuntu 20.04.4 releases is a few hours... it's a focus of the team currently) [10:41] Hi ! [10:42] [telegram] Hi [11:19] is there an installer prackage for Chromium in in Muon? [11:19] I see quite a few dummy packages [11:21] I tend to prefer FF, but it is suppose to work with Teams, and chromium isn`t as heavily burdended as Google Chrome [11:21] dragon_: the deb package installs the snap for chromium [11:21] you mean from their site? [11:23] No when you install the deb package from muon it installs the snap of chromium. It comes from snapcraft.io [11:23] I can`t find deb nor stable chromium package in moun? [11:24] I find transitional packages and extensions [11:24] Right. It is transitional because it installs the snap package. [11:32] hmm [11:32] I have this https://pasteboard.co/hlbeQ791tJKg.jpg [11:33] The only way to get chromium is to use the chromium-browser package and install the snap [11:33] !info chromium-browser [11:33] chromium-browser (1:85.0.4183.83-0ubuntu2, impish): Transitional package - chromium-browser -> chromium snap. In component universe, is optional. Built by chromium-browser. Size 48 kB / 160 kB. (Only available for i386, amd64, armhf, arm64.) [11:34] it is not on my moun list is it? [11:34] Muon I man [11:35] It is 2 up from the one you have selected in your screenshot. [11:35] thanks [11:46] ooh, it works [11:46] browser and teams [11:46] \o/ [11:47] thanks again [11:47] sure thing [11:47] haven`t used chromium in ages [11:47] [telegram] Forwarded from lubuntu_bot: (irc) Hi, I'm unable to connect to internet via lan or wifi dongle.

Network manager doesn't read both lan Nor my wifi dongle [11:48] would that be a case of not tagging of for proprietary drivers? [11:48] ...and being forced to use a wired connection to the router... [11:49] [telegram] Even wired isn't working [11:50] [telegram] I've never used linux before so simpler non technical English would help 😅 (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) would that be a case of not tagging of for proprietary drivers?) [11:50] I would make sure you have it enabled. There is a screenshot in our manual page. https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/3/3.1/3.1.5/nm-tray.html?highlight=network [11:51] you likely need to connect the pc you newly installed lubuntu on to your router (or internet connection) via a cable [11:52] they go menu-preferances-additinal drives and do an upgrade [11:53] then it tends to sort itself out when the right driver packages are downloaded [11:53] [telegram] I've tried all the above mentioned , the problem is it doesn't show any connections when I open nm tray [11:55] double click mouse (or other click) wifi request-scan? [11:56] [telegram] I don't have built-in Wi-Fi i used a dongle and i don't get any option to connect to internet via dongle as well [11:56] dongle, a usb connected external thing? [11:56] [telegram] Yeah [11:56] it should be detected by the system, if you tag off or additional drivers [11:57] try a different USB port, it can sometimes oddly prefer one over another [11:57] [telegram] Tried that too [11:57] then I have no idea [11:58] ...well, go throgh the steps carefully and see if there might be something [11:59] [telegram] I've been trying over and over, is there any other version where it's easier to connect [12:03] did you try a reboot? [12:04] [telegram] Yes three times [12:05] [telegram] Nm tray won't show wired or wifi (usb) [12:05] [telegram] No pending driver updates either [12:11] someone with problems with telegram desktop in jammy? [12:11] telegram-desktop [12:11] Aborted (core dumped) [12:12] I could never get Telegram to work, I don`t receive the confirmation code [12:12] I gave up on it [12:13] you usb thing has the indicator light on Frosty? [12:13] [telegram] I guess i gotta shift back to windows 7 (re @Frosty197: Nm tray won't show wired or wifi (usb)) [12:13] [telegram] Yeah (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) you usb thing has the indicator light on Frosty?) [12:13] no, just work with it, [12:13] [telegram] It was working properly, i had windows 10 on it and it was very slow so I wanted to shift to faster os [12:14] windows 10 shouldn`t be that slow? [12:14] [telegram] I tried to install chromium but my screen went black after i hit "get started" [12:14] well, it was on my other portable, but I needed a new hd [12:14] ssd [12:14] [telegram] It's a old laptop, not much powerful (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) windows 10 shouldn`t be that slow?) [12:15] [telegram] I'm trying to get it work decently so I could give it to a student in need for online studies or something. [12:15] well, it runs well on 8GB ram I think, regular cpu specs, and I know old harddrives can get slow, and SSDs speeds things up considerably [12:16] [telegram] It's probably got 4 or 2gb ram i guess. Let me replace word old with ancient. [12:16] [telegram] Is there a command code to check the specs [12:16] you need to get the lubuntu pc on the internet, that is the first, get the right cable form the pc to the right slot in the router or whatever connection you have [12:17] at university we had these outlets on the wall [12:17] ethernet cable, [12:18] when you can use the browser, it will download updates and packages needed [12:18] [telegram] I tried to connect ethernet as well it just not working idk Why it doesn't show in nm tray either (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) you need to get the lubuntu pc on the internet, that is the first, get the right cable form the pc to the right slot in the router or whatever connection you have) [12:18] it will show up in the nm tray when you actually have a connection [12:18] try a different outlet on the router [12:19] [telegram] That's why I'm trying but only if it connects (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) when you can use the browser, it will download updates and packages needed) [12:19] [telegram] Okay I'll and update you (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) try a different outlet on the router) [12:22] [telegram] ? (re @Frosty197: Is there a command code to check the specs) [12:32] I think you can check specs in htop [12:32] menu-system tools-htop [12:35] in termial too I think, but I don`t know the commands [12:38] [telegram] Okay (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) menu-system tools-htop) [13:05] in htop you just move your cursor and click on the column titles and functions, there are a few Fkey commands, easier than terminal [13:06] [telegram] Okay ! I'm not around the laptop rn, will let know! === genii-core is now known as genii === genii is now known as genii-core
