19:08:22 <wilcal> #topic recent updates how did they go for you?
19:08:29 <ezequielpartida> people ride around 90km in a bike..
19:08:34 <ezequielpartida> from Rosarito to Ensenada
19:09:00 <wilcal> So we've had quite a lot of updates in the last week ir so how did all that go for you
19:09:11 <MageiaTJ> I just validated the chromium-browser update.
19:09:30 <bri_an> thanks TJ
19:09:34 <ezequielpartida> I have problems with sound sincce kernel-desktop-5.5
19:09:43 <ezequielpartida> 5.4 linus works great
19:09:52 <hviaene> I did a test on ksnip, but left with a question on language. But really, for me it might go.
19:10:03 <Benmc> zeke, do you have a bug #?
19:10:08 <ezequielpartida> sure
19:10:09 <MageiaTJ> As usual, a lot of them are beyond me, but of those I've worked on, things have been OK.
19:10:13 <ezequielpartida> let me chec
19:10:42 <wilcal> we've been pretty lucky lately and many thanks to those doing the testing
19:10:42 <hviaene> Could anyone have a look at ksnip?
19:10:58 <ezequielpartida> My reporte is: Bug 26239
19:12:25 <hviaene> Not right now, but it has been laying around since then
19:12:49 <MageiaTJ> hviaene: I'll have a look. No promises.
19:14:08 <Benmc> Zeke: looks like a Cauldron issue. has it happend in a MGA7?
19:14:17 <wilcal> Hardware platform your on?
19:14:35 <ezequielpartida> no
19:14:44 <ezequielpartida> in MGA it works great
19:14:49 <ezequielpartida> MGA7 Sorry
19:15:16 <Benmc> well, thats good! we are more concerned with current release
19:15:52 <Benmc> but, if you re running cauldron, things like that need to be notified
19:17:06 <Benmc> so, keep up the good work
19:17:34 <wilcal> List is pretty short. Anything else
19:18:00 <hviaene> No
19:18:12 <wilcal> I have an intersting issue to share
19:18:29 <bri_an> :-)
19:18:42 <wilcal> lets go to that
19:18:48 <wilcal> #topic Mageia and the HP ePrint platform
19:18:53 <hviaene> Oh boy .....
19:19:04 <Benmc> this is going to be great!
19:19:11 <wilcal> So my 11-year old USB HP all-in-one printer died
19:19:40 <wilcal> So iff I go for a replacement. And bought an HP Envy e5055
19:20:15 <wilcal> A VERY popular HP printer but it really wants to use the HP ePrint and not the USP/Cups port
19:20:16 <bri_an> so far so good
19:20:42 <Benmc> e means wified?
19:20:50 <wilcal> I tried hard to get M7/Cups/HP Application to deal with
19:20:52 <wilcal> it
19:20:55 <wilcal> no go
19:21:19 <wilcal> It wanted som obsucre driver that was no where to be found in the Mageia repos
19:21:42 <hviaene> I installed a couple or Envy's, but that's about two years ago, never seen such a ptoblem
19:22:03 <wilcal> So being nervious I went after the HP ePrint universe and hoped it worked on M7 Plasma
19:22:11 <hviaene> Did you try an older type of driver?
19:22:53 <wilcal> Anyway that thing, ePrint, works slick as snot on my M7, Plasma and I ain't never going back to CUPS
19:23:29 <bri_an> well that's cool wilcal.  That should be a forum item I think
19:23:51 <wilcal> Zero set up everywhere
19:23:51 <ezequielpartida> sorry something whent wrong with my internet
19:23:57 <hviaene> Never bothered with eprint, even not sure what it really is
19:24:26 <wilcal> If you can send an e-mail with an attachment from your platform whatever it is you can print. No drivers needed
19:24:43 <wilcal> And fro where ever you are
19:24:58 <wilcal> The only hardware connection to the printer is power cord
19:25:00 <bri_an> oh sweet.  I wonder if that is their solution to google ditching their print solution for devices
19:25:03 <hviaene> Anyway, if I would have to replace my printer, I would go for the Epson with refillable ink containers.
19:25:25 <hviaene> A bit moer expensive in purchase.
19:25:39 <wilcal> The set up to your WiFi is very easy, then it updates and your on your way
19:26:02 <bri_an> good to know wilcal.  My kids print from android, chromebooks, windows, etc.
19:26:08 <wilcal> The printer has an e-mail address. Lets say it's skhe45n@hp.eprint.com
19:26:16 <hviaene> So you print over the internet??
19:26:22 <wilcal> Send an e-mail to that with attachment and it prints
19:26:30 <hviaene> I don't like the idea at all
19:26:36 <bri_an> probably hviaene
19:26:55 <wilcal> I printed a picture I took in the grocery store with my smartphone
19:27:06 <wilcal> From the grocery store
19:28:03 <wilcal> I think it only handles doc, jpg and pdf files but those are easy to convert to
19:29:04 <hviaene> Tx for the warning.
19:29:21 <wilcal> And you can give the e-mail addy to a friend and they can print on your printer too
19:29:59 <wilcal> CUPS and network printing for a home user and LAN can be a bear
19:30:08 <wilcal> This completely eliminates that
19:30:19 <MageiaTJ> Right. Better be a GOOD friend, who has good security on his system.
19:30:28 <Luigi12> with CUPS my other computers and phones pick up the printer automatically
19:30:35 <wilcal> OpenOffice apps all export compatible pdf files
19:30:45 <wilcal> Gimp too
19:31:03 <Luigi12> this eprint thing sounds like a good way to bring fax machine spamming back into the modern world
19:31:05 <Benmc> 2nd that TJ
19:31:30 <wilcal> The Android app an send faxs
19:31:48 <Luigi12> I don't need a special app, the phone just sees it
19:32:04 <Luigi12> anyway is there a point to all of this?
19:32:15 <hviaene> I will never trust any of my friends access to my equipment in such way, be whoever it might be
19:32:15 <MageiaTJ> Does it include a way to change the email addy if you get spammed?
19:32:25 <wilcal> So to scan you put the document in the scanner, call up the android app, tell the prnter to scan ( your doing this over the internet ) it scans the doc and puts that int a directory on your phone
19:32:46 <wilcal> it's that easy
19:33:28 <wilcal> The file can be jog or pdf
19:33:45 <Luigi12> picking up some extra cash on the side being a pitchman for HP?
19:33:51 <hviaene> I agree to disagree
19:33:53 <wilcal> :-)
19:34:07 <MageiaTJ> Not for me at this time...
19:34:26 <wilcal> yawanna  know how many years yours truly has delt with computers and printers?
19:34:29 <MageiaTJ> I have three working HP printers, anyway.
19:34:30 <wilcal> Nightmares
19:35:04 <hviaene> The new one you mean!!!
19:35:21 <Benmc> my kyocera fs-820 works fine
19:35:25 <wilcal> I'll find the name of that file the usb setup was looking for and share that with you
19:35:44 <wilcal> Mine worked since 2010 then stopped
19:36:20 <wilcal> BTW places like Walmart and Office Depot are cleaned out of printers. Remeber the working from home thingy
19:36:42 <bri_an> yeah - crazy times
19:36:53 <hviaene> Can we please take another subject? This is bringing us anywhere.
19:36:57 <bri_an> wilcal good to know, as my kids .... print from anywhere
19:37:03 <bri_an> sure
19:37:14 <wilcal> I was lucky and found a 3rd party seller on Amazon who had one
19:37:55 <wilcal> Anyway a very usefull very compatible with Mageia tool
19:38:29 <ezequielpartida> is there a problem with wifi?.. I have 2 laptops that do connect but I don't get any internet.. The weird thing is that I do get a list of MGA Updates..
19:38:42 <wilcal> SO lets really move on to
19:38:44 <wilcal> #topic Anything else?
19:39:10 <MageiaTJ> Zeke, not a problem in general, no.
19:39:21 <bri_an> Zeke - I ran into that that issue and had to force a back-out awhile ago
19:39:31 <bri_an> then locked it
19:39:35 <MageiaTJ> No problems here, anyway.
19:39:47 <ezequielpartida> ok.. I didn install network manager and stuf.. probably something I messed up..
19:39:57 <Benmc> Zeke, which type of wifi modules, broadcom?
19:40:03 <ezequielpartida> ok bri_an.. I´l do that
19:40:16 <ezequielpartida> It is intel Benmc
19:40:30 <MageiaTJ> In my experience, wifi problems usually trace to not having the right firmware installed.
19:40:36 <bri_an> atheros wifi?
19:40:43 <bri_an> oh intel
19:40:57 <bri_an> correct TJ
19:41:01 <ezequielpartida> I booting righ now
19:41:02 <Benmc> Intel is usually good to go
19:41:06 <MageiaTJ> I have one Intel device, no problems.
19:41:21 <MageiaTJ> But mine is about ten years old.
19:41:44 <wilcal> Anything else?
19:42:06 <ezequielpartida> lspcidrake -v shows iwlwifi inter corporation centrino advanced-n-6200
19:42:34 <bri_an> also is this cauldron or mga7?
19:42:47 <Benmc> Zeke, in a root terminal run "urpmi --clean", see if that clears the issue
19:42:47 <ezequielpartida> cauldron bri_an
19:42:51 <MageiaTJ> That looks familiar - same as in my laptop.
19:43:02 <ezequielpartida> thanks Benmc
