| w0rmy | shane634: and as for an added bonus |
| Andy8372 | can someone help me with networking on ubuntu 6.10 - DNS issue (reverts back to another address on reboot) and sorting wifi out (driver installed but not connecting) |
| reep | w0rmy: does it work better on other linux-distros |
| w0rmy | shane634: I just noticed that I cant see trans. errors from the wifi |
| Jordan_U | w0rmy, This may sound strange, but if you use comcast try using openDNS instead of thier ( horrible ) DNS service |
| w0rmy | Jordan_U: its not a dns problem reep: the problem is with ubuntu driver (100%) reep: works ok on windows |
| atselby | Hey anyone want to offer help with "connection refused" for repositories? |
| Jordan_U | w0rmy, I had 13 second lag before switching to OpenDNS, even though I could ping ( and do DNS lookups ) with no lag, don't ask me why, but it worked |
| Nick^69 | sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter put this In X and enter telling me bcm43xx-fwcutter could not find package |
| Jordan_U | w0rmy, And, just like you, the only problem was in Ubuntu. |
| lilphil | Andy8372: is the other address picked up from dhcp? |
| w0rmy | Jordan_U: armm... what exactly do I need to do again ? |
| Jordan_U | w0rmy, opendns.org |
| Andy8372 | lilphil: yeah |
| shane634 | w0rmy, he is saying use different dns server |
| w0rmy | Jordan_U: thats all ? like to change the dns on my machine or at the router ? |
| shane634 | w0rmy, you can edit it on the machine i can't recall the file off hand though :( |
| w0rmy | resolv.conf |
| Jordan_U | w0rmy, Either one, again, I don't quite understand why this works for me, so it may not work for you. |
| lilphil | Andy8372: well there's a few different ways of doing that. I take it you have no control over the dhcp server, as that would be the neatest |
| bpasham | some one Please help me with installing ubuntu on AMd64 |
| shane634 | w0rmy, by default the router handles all dns |
| mana | hmm not much help there is one of you running feisty? |
| w0rmy | shane634: yeah, I know, |
| lilphil | Andy8372: and I take it you don't want to use a static IP, as that wouldnt be very clean |
| mana | though i am upgrading right now, i would be interested what you see in your /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.17-10/fs folder |
| Jordan_U | mana, Yes, #ubuntu+1 for Feisty |
| shane634 | mana, ubuntu+1 for feisty help |
| elementz | hi everybody, need the following package 'libebook-1.2' -cant't find it in the edgy repos though - anyone? |
| mana | shane no help there ;) asked thrice |
| atselby | Anyone have any suggestions for me on a "connection:refused" for repositories in synaptic and aptitude? |
| shane634 | mana, sorry man |
| lilphil | Andy8372: so you need to tell dhclient to either use the dns you want to use, or tell it not to overwrite resolv.conf |
| shawn34 | lilphil, hey im back, it locked up again during the shutdown proccess |
| mana | ;) its ok i'll dig my way through |
