[03:01] <lotuspsychje> good morning
[06:46] <ducasse> good morning
[08:20] <marcoagpinto> The cola demon!
[08:53] <daftykins> ah someone was just asking where the demon was...
[08:53] <marcoagpinto> ohhhh
[08:53] <marcoagpinto> daftykins: Who?
[08:55] <daftykins> i can't reveal that information!
[09:03] <sorcerer> oO
[09:03] <lotuspsychje> lol
[09:43] <marcoagpinto> ahhhh
[09:44] <marcoagpinto> I have returned with some cola
[09:44] <marcoagpinto> :)
[09:44] <marcoagpinto> I went to the store
[19:45] <akemhp> I received my BrosTrend Wifi adapter, special Linux...But it doesn't work out of the box. It is recognised as a new high speed USB device with few info, but there is no new Wifi interface create when i plug it.
[19:46] <oerheks> in Gnome3, one needs to turn on the adapter first..
[19:46] <oerheks> how about updates, any available?
[19:55] <akemhp> oerheks, It should work out of the box even on 18.04 or older. It was specified on the article i read and also on the amazon page, wait a sec.
[19:57] <akem> http://imgur.com/gallery/rhcvs0s
[19:57] <oerheks> what does lsusb say? 8 digit hex number, to identify chipset
[19:57] <oerheks> and updates,??
[19:58] <akemhp> It's on the last screen i posted: 0bda:b812 it's identified as a Realtek chip.
[20:00] <akemhp> Actually this is a Ubuntu 18.04 but it has a more recent kernel with default options. 5.5.9, i will try it on my other Ubuntu/LUbuntu to see if it creates the WIFI interface automaticly when i plug it.
[20:02] <oerheks> use the stock kernel please, else it is no use to find out what is wrong
[20:02] <akemhp> On my regular 18.04 with stock kernel it is the same, i just tested it.
[20:04] <oerheks>  RTL8812BU , build the driver from git https://askubuntu.com/questions/1079377/how-do-i-install-drivers-for-realtek-rtl8812bu
[20:04] <oerheks> so your claim it works OOTB is false
[20:04] <oerheks> sorry :-P
[20:08] <akemhp> oerheks, I see, that's what they said on the article! and even on the amazon page they put some Ubuntu logo IIRC! buyers would expect it to be plug n play on Linux. But it is not so important, if i can build the drivers it will be fine. Thanks btw.
[20:10] <oerheks> one brand i know off, is intel, works fine OOTB
[20:15] <akemhp> They provide a tiny CD with drivers for all platform in fact. And one with the manual.
[20:15] <oerheks> use that url, with dkms, so it gets rebuild with any new kernel
[20:25] <Bashing-om> UWN648 is on the streets: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue648 :D
[21:22] <akemhp> oerheks, It worked with the last unified repository for 88X2 :) Thanks.
[21:32] <jeremy31> Might actually need https://askubuntu.com/a/1273142/300665
[21:34] <jeremy31> There are a few realtek USB wifi devices supported by the kernel but more are still in staging
[21:35] <oerheks> that would be the same as the url i gave, right?
[21:36] <jeremy31> oerheks: actually a newer question than that
[21:38] <jeremy31> The guy keeps changing version numbers with an entire new github rather than adding changes to an older one
[21:39] <jeremy31> Sounds like something I would do
[21:40] <oerheks> oh oke, noted.
[21:44] <akem> I won't trust web articles anymore when it comes to Linux hardware :P
[21:44] <jeremy31> akem: If you see an answer on wifi by chilli555, it worked at some time
[23:32] <Bashing-om> Heads up everybody !! sabdfl: " Having considered it over the weekend, with @wxl’s offer to help run the process, let’s go ahead and call for nominations to the CC. " !! The process will soon be live to propose the memberships.
[23:32] <jeremy31> I nominate Bashing-om
[23:33] <Bashing-om> jeremy31: And what do you think - as I am curious - are my qualifications ?
[23:34] <jeremy31> They are better than mine
[23:35] <Bashing-om> LOL jeremy31 - Somehow I find that hard to accept :P
[23:35] <jeremy31> You have been involved with UF for 10 years and do UWN for how long now
[23:37] <sonicwind> go for it Bashing-om :-D
[23:38] <Bashing-om> jeremy31: UWN for going on 3 years now . my my but time flys when one stays directed and busy.
[23:39] <ducasse> Bashing-om and oerheks for the council!
[23:42] <jeremy31> It might be something wildmanne39 would be interested in, both of you show a certain professionalism
[23:44] <sonicwind> who was on it before?
[23:45] <jeremy31> chilli555 would be a choice but I think he wants to travel more and enjoy his retirement
[23:50] <sonicwind> quick google search is interesting... Kubuntu Project Lead Asked To Step Down by Ubuntu Community Council
[23:50] <sonicwind> also Ubuntu Community Council Can't Track Down $143,000 Worth of Donations lol
[23:50] <daftykins> :O
[23:50] <daftykins> scandalous

[23:51] <sonicwind> right before my getting started
[23:51] <jeremy31> Might have been charge backs on credit cards, donate and then cancel
