<1> redhat I didn't have a prob with 4 or so years ago
<1> mandrake 8.2 was easy with broadband, but not sure with these 56k modems :(
<2> K_F: he used this excuse earlier tonight when it came to paying for a cab: "I cant pay. Ive sepnt all my money on hookers" XD
<0> rofl
<1> so is there anyone here that can enlighten my dumb ***?
<0> Jostein: something is damn familiar with his address as well
<0> hmm
<0> aaah
<0> think I ran into his daughter
<0> literally
<2> lol
<2> anyway... I should get some sleeo
<0> sleep is overrated
<3> sleep is for the weak
<2> I need my sleep
<2> in my world sleep is -never- overrated :P
<1> so no one knows what the usb device/port is call under linux
<0> for some reason I can't find the damn part of my papers
<1> is it no one knows or ya'll just don't wanna take time out to help me?
<0> robbery
<0> skjetten, skjell
<0> guns used
<0> 4 persons, white van, marked gardermoen frakt
<2> K_F: you could start #police.no, you know :P
<0> hehe
<2> and it wasnt me
<2> heh
<1> xyzzy, that would be great if it lit up my brain to figure this crap out
<0> probably your buddy :)
<2> lol
<0> need to finance the hookers homehow
<0> okay, I don't find the damn insurance papers
<0> I'm rather sure it was the dude though
<0> or rather, the dude's daughter
<0> and no, she was ugly
<4> inhibitor: well for one if any of it is to work it needs the usb services to see it. have you tried lsusb to see it even sees the device?
<5> any maltese online?
<1> no I have not xyzzy
<3> Malta has Internet? wow.
<5> lol
<1> linux is on my other hd I have to shut down, change power to other hd, switch modems lol.. and vice versa for xp like im on now
<0> ARRGH; I have not finding documents
<0> I might have them in Aalesund though
<0> I know I have the final papers there, but though I had the temps here
<1> xyzzy what is lsusb and how do I find it?
<6> i'm a BIG fan of the latest ubuntu's installation method.
<4> inhibitor: ok. once you do that it should show you the ID of the device. with the ID you can investigate further. eg see if you have a driver for it in your current kernel
<4> inhibitor: lsusb is a tool. should be on any modern distro
<4> lists the usb devices
<1> is it on mandrake 8.2?
<6> i wouldnt call mandrake 8.2 modern by any stretch of the imagination]
<1> I would use my us robotics modem if I could get it to work I get the same error, so thats when I tried the older external usb viking modem..
<1> but I have a newer us robotics 56k v.92 pci
<1> which I would prefer to use
<1> I go through the autoconnect features to auto find everything, it all goes fine until I try to connect, but it then says "sorry, modem isn't responding or something
<3> you probably won't get a winmodem going without upgrading
<1> so all modems that are internal and pci is considering a winmodem?
<1> if its for 56k?
<1> considered rather
<3> not all of them, but winmodems have existed for quite some years now
<4> no, winmodems are modems that require software to even function.
<1> it didn't require any software, xp found the drivers and it connected fine on xp
<3> XP is irrelevant
<1> okay, but I didn't install any software
<1> so it is a winmodem
<3> for your issue, it is entirely possible that XP had the drivers for it already
<1> is it rather damn remote keyboard lol
<4> any usb modem is most likely a winmodem
<3> hm, anyone know if there is a JavaScript validator, much in the same vein as the HTML and CSS validators?
<1> i'm not talking about the usb modem, its external I know its not a winmodem.. If I can get this pci us robotics modem to work I would rather go with it.
<4> inhibitor: for pci devices try lspci to see if the kernel sees it
<1> so I go to console and type lspci?
<7> inhibitor if linmodems said it won't work then it won't work
<4> yup
<1> it didn't say it didn't work, what I was search for was model 5699B it wasn't listed but 5699-00 was but didn't have any links for nothing.. :((((
<1> I wanna pull my hair out, i've been trying for 3 days now
<4> new modem? might not be drivers for it yet
<0> especially not for 8.2....
<6> K_F: indeed.
<1> if the modem box doesn't specify linux then the chipset prob won't work with linux yet right? because it doesn't say nothing about linux just all win versions
<6> they ignored my snipe it seems.
<6> inhibitor: i wouldnt call that a true statement.
<0> D-side: your "snipe"?
<6> i dont know of many vendors at all that list linux on the box
<6> K_F: indeed. "i wouldnt call mdk 8.2 current by any stretch of the imagination"
<1> okay then, thats why I pulled out my old external usb viking modem to see if I could get it to work.. I read on linmodems that this chipset does work with linux.. 8.2 im not sure about
<4> inhibitor: barely any say they will support linux
<0> D-side: ah, yeah, it si plain old
<0> s/si/is/
<0> and why am I still awake?
<0> arrgh, not even tired
<3> why are you still awake?
<0> getting light outside
<4> inhibitor: might even try a newer version of mandriva
<1> okay then so to get this external usb to work what is the first step to take?
<1> I going to xyzzy
<1> i have to go to pops house with broadband to dl it though which is hour from here.
<7> inhibitor web search viking usb modem + linux
<4> usb modems are fairly new on the scene too. that old of a distro might not support it either.
<1> well i've had this modem for like 10 years lol
<1> and I though when I used redhat ages ago I got it working
<4> it should be supported if it's not a winmodem
<1> so if it was ya'll smart dudes what would be the first step to see if I could get this usb exter working? go to console and type lsusb to see if it finds it first?
<4> yes if it does that at least you don't need a kernel recompile
<1> so thats all I do click on console and type lsusb under any path?
<1> or do I need to go to a special dir or anything?
<3> if you can login as root, it should be in the path already
<1> how do I log in root with mandrake 8.2?
<0> bah
<1> redhat I though I type admin/root
<1> or root/ p***
<1> or something
<1> i'm sorry guys I know how ya'll feel
<1> I'm ignorant to this and ya'll are my only hope
<8> inhibitor: first step is to wipe your system clean and reinstall windows or if you prefer, go get a mac
<1> I'm on windows now thats how i'm on the net lol
<1> I wanna get on the net under my linux though
<8> stay there then
<1> how about you go get on windows and stay there
<1> just because I'm needing help theres no reason to be an *** because I'm trying to learn a new os
<0> inhibitor:
<0> http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html might increase your chance of getting a, in your perspective, positive response.
<1> xyzzy can I msg you?
<8> inhibitor: there's no reason for you to be in here whining when you can go use google
<1> i'm trying to be positive k_F
<1> its when ppl shun me
<1> ive tried google libolt
<0> "in your perspective, positive response.
<1> how do you think I found this place
<8> it's obvious you didn't try hard enough
<1> well libolt when you have 2 kids, 2 puppies running around all day and have to swap hd power cords and reboot over and over and over
<1> it gets kinda nerve rattling
<3> OK, no need for melodrama
<1> all i ask for is if anyone could help me figure this out though, I didn't need to here ***holes making me more ignorant than what I already am to the fact of linux
<1> asked
<8> if you would've bothered to read the channel FAQ that's clearly listed in the topic, you would've known this isn't a help channel :)
<8> oh wait you were too busy worryinga bout your kids and puppies and swapping power cords around
<1> yah, well help channel or not they are nice ppl in this world willing to help folks
<7> inhibitor try #linuxhelp or sleep on it
<1> thanks captj
