<0> i think
<1> Maybe it's recognized... But it just can't connect
<2> shinu: What are you using sed in this case for anyway? Are you just searching for a string?
<1> iwconfig shows wifi0 and eth0
<3> harisund: yes
<2> wy: If you want to know if your card is recognized, look at the output of iwconfig in your terminal
<4> _kalm, don't tell people what you told them show them that page and then they can do what they want, thanks
<2> wy: For all unrecognized cards, you will get "no wireless extensions" and for the wireless card you will get some details. Can you have a look at that?
<2> shinu: If searching for a string is what you want, have a look at grep and fgrep.
<2> shinu: They are simpler to use too
<5> I need to initiate network card every time i connect to internet, why?
<3> harisund: yes i know about grep but i wanted to extract specific strings
<3> harisund: like from an index.html file extract all the jpgs or osmething
<1> harisund: My iwconfig shows "wifi0" and "eth0"
<4> asdffasf, are you saving your settings, if you are then I suggest that the card has a fault, it was the only thing I had seen before
<2> shinu: Oh I see..



<3> harisund: might using awk a better solution or not?
<2> shinu That's an interesting problem, choosing *.jpg from an index.html.. I am really not sure what the best tool would be in this case, though I am sure there is just a perfect one..
<2> Probably some one else might be able to help us out here?
<1> harisund: how do you add "wy:" to the front of your line? typeing you id is too long... sorry I'm new to irc
<3> harisund: well.. i could write up a perl script but i dont want it :P
<6> anyone has try the new x1x00 ati proprietary driver ?
<3> wy: use [tab]? for nick completion?
<2> wy: Ok let's ***ume wifi0 is a wireless card.. can you paste the output of your iwconfig somewhere on the web, like ubuntu paste.ubuntu.nl ? And you can use hari instead of harisund
<1> Yes. I'll paste it
<5> how to change user p****
<5> ?
<4> asdffasf, system administration users&gropus
<2> shinu: Hmm.. let's see..
<1> I can't connect to paste.ubuntu.nl
<4> wy, so do a screenshot hit print screen
<2> wy: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
<2> wy: I thought you had known about that. Sorry :D
<5> wd
<1> I pasted it to http://rafb.net/paste
<2> wy: that's fine, but I will need the exact url of the page you pasted it in.
<7> morning
<1> http://rafb.net/paste/results/vtBTBt95.html
<2> wy: otherwise I will not be able to access it
<8> hi gerhard
<2> wy: hmm.. looks like both eth0 and wifi0 are your wireless interfaces.. by any chance do you have 2 interfaces? Maybe an inbuilt card and a pcmcia card?
<1> No. I have only one card
<1> hari: if I do a "ifconfig wifi0 up", both "wifi0" and "eth0" will show up in ifconfig
<2> wy: ok lets use eth0 then. What is the name of the essid you want to connect to?
<1> uonenet01
<0> how do u edit the startx command to start with another workspace like iceWM or fluxbox???
<2> wy: Ok that's good. Are you using a wep key?
<1> yes
<2> wy: And wait, that wireless network belongs to you? I mean, are you sure it is working, the router is fine, other computers are connecting to it and etc?
<2> wy: And I am ***uming it is using the DHCP protocol to ***ign IP addresses to machines?
<1> hari: it's fine. My boss's computer is connected to it with windows
<1> Yes. It uses DHCP
<2> wy: Ok. Next, you do know about using sudo for commands, right?
<1> need I edit /etc/network/interfaces?
<2> wy: So here is what I normally do to connect to a wireless network with interface eth0
<1> Yes. I can su
<2> wy: sudo iwconfig eth0 mode managed essid uonenet01 key 11235813210
<2> wy: of course in the above command replace the number with your wep key
<2> wy: Typically this command should produce no output at all, since we are merely informing the eth0 interface what it should know before connecting.
<8> question, how can I change font size in xterm ?
<1> hari: OK. I've done.
<2> wy: Ok, now in order to get an ip address, do "sudo dhclient eth0" and see if you can paste the entire output of that command somewhere....
<9> hello
<10> Hello menisk :)
<9> HEY
<2> wy: Any luck?
<11> Is there a way I can get my 88E8053 network card to work?
<2> Dear ubuntuers is anybody aware of a method to change screen resolution using a command line instruction?
<12> hey, i forgot.. where's the tutorial to get mp3's etc working.. or what's the package name(s)?
<1> hari: Yes!!! It works!
<10> !restrictedformats
<13> restrictedformats is, like, totally, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
<2> wy: Yay !
<1> hari: thank you very much!
<2> wy: Ok a couple of details..
<12> darthlappy: thanks
<2> wy: Firstly these 2 are the general commands for configuring wireless interfaces..



<14> MA SI PARLA SOLO INGLESE QUI??
<12> !freeformats
<13> There are a large number of Free Formats which are preferred over patent and copyright encumbered formats. They are listed here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreeFormats
<2> wy: The first one sets the details, the second one asks the DHCP server (the router) to get an IP address.. so you could write a quick script that contains these two lines and call them to get an IP address.
<15> !it
<13> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
<2> wy: And if you are moving between place to place, you might want to have multiple such scripts, or something along those lines.. do you get my point?
<1> hari: Can't I put them into /etc/network/interfaces?
<2> wy: And finally I would put them in /etc/network/interfaces, but it might not always get an ip while booting.. but typically yes you can put it there..
<14> GRAZIE
<1> hari: Yes. I see
<2> wy: But be sure you know how to edit /etc/network/interfaces file.
<1> hari: so the interfaces lines are like those of others?
<2> wy: Can you paste your existing interfaces file? (sorry...)
<1> how do I get the iwconfig command into it?
<2> wy: For wireless there are other options.
<1> Yes.
<2> wy: Ah that's the pont, you can't get the iwconfig command into it .
<2> wy: Which is why I asked earlier if you knew about editing the interfaces file..
<1> hari: tell me
<2> wy: Editing the /etc/network/interfaces file for wireless interfaces requires some extra key words.
<2> wy: Hang on for a moment.
<1> hari: http://rafb.net/paste/results/uUdOhW77.html
<16> hi
<9> Hello can somebody hep me. I need to make an ubuntu boot floppy and cant find one or how to make 1 on google
<1> hari: what are they?
<11> I may just cry, is there a way to get a 1gb network card (88E8053) working in Ubuntu?
<2> wy: Hang on, I will create a paste and tell you .. give me a moment or two
<1> hari: OK
<15> how do you specifiy the saved filename for a file w/ wget?
<1> hari: And do you know how can I exchange my wired and wireless card numbers. I want the wired card to be eth0.
<2> wy: No, I don't think you can do that..
<2> orbin: I doubt if you could do that ....
<15> ubotu: tell menisk about bootdisk
<15> harisund: ah, dman.
<2> wy: Anyway, as I was saying eth0 and eth1 are automatically ***igned by Linux.. (any Linux) so you cant change it
<15> s/dman/damn :)
<16> trying to copy ormove a bit torrent tgz from desktop in hda1 to /usr/scr directory in hda2 is the command sudo mv /home/bliss1/Desktop /mntdev/hda2/usr/src
<17> !kde4
<13> rumour has it, kde4 is http://www.canllaith.org/svn-features/kde4.html
<2> I once tried searching for that long and hard, on forums, on google, on irc everywhere... (orbin)
<1> hari: I'm just wondering where did ifconfig get the names of interfaces
<2> wy: I really don't know, but I doubt if you could change it ..
<2> wy: just a minute .. I am editing your file and making a new paste
<15> harisund: i was thinking redirection: wget http://file > alternatefilename
<1> hari: thank you. you helped me a lot1
<2> orbin: that's a neat idea, but I dn't think that works either. does it?
<18> doh. I just deleted a good 50 .rar files, is ther ea way to recover them?
<16> or mv /home/bliss1/Desktop/name of file /mnt/dev/hda2/usr/scr
<15> harisund: no, just tried it. it just creates an empty file
<16> harisund hi please take a look at mv command is it correct
<2> http://rafb.net/paste/results/rQcue340.html wy for you
<19> can ne1 suggest a free pdf writer for linux?
<19> *editor
<2> bliss1_ Hang on, let me have a look
<2> orbin: I believe what that does is basically redirect the output of wget into alternatefilename, which isn't what you want, right?
<2> wy did you get my file?
<19> huh?
<16> harisund or mv /home/bliss1/Desktop/name of file /mnt/dev/hda2/usr/scr
<2> bliss1_ that mv command looks mysterious. What are you trying to move where?
<19> gnomefreak?
<2> Typically that command looks correct.
<1> hari: I got it!
<2> But if the file in the desktop has spaces in its name, you will have to do some modifications.
<2> wy: Ok good.. glad to hear.. in fact, it was really good that you managed to get the wireless card working ..
<19> can ne1 suggest a free pdf editor for linux?
<2> bliss1_ : Your command, atleast on the surface of it, looks correct..
<2> wy: Do you want to restart your machine and check if it works?
<15> harisund: yeah, my mistake. redirect takes the input from stdout :-/ forgot that
<20> bliss1_, does the name of your file have spaces in it?
<2> orbin: The only thing is, if wget downloads a file when there is already a same named file in the local machine, it renames the new file as filename[2] or something like that.. otherwise there is no way you can change the name of the downloaded file.. except perhaps through a script :D
<19> hullo?????
<16> harisund: no only dots and - and underscore
<2> bliss1_: Ah ok, then ideally it would be fine .. why, are you having a problem or something?
