Apr 11 11:22:17 let's see which US aircraft varrier Putin will sink as a response, and how long escalation to nukes takes Apr 11 11:43:12 >>President Trump: “Russia vows to shoot down any and all missiles fired at Syria.

President Trump tweets that there is no reason for a strained US-Russia relationship, adding that "we need all nations to work together. Stop the arms race?"<< this troll is acting incredibly idiotic Apr 11 12:23:34 cu Apr 11 21:02:38 hmz, wvdial doesn't work on recent kernels and now I have no idea how to use my n900 as usb-modem .. any ideas? Apr 11 21:02:45 (I don't use network-manager btw ..) Apr 11 21:13:56 pppd :) Apr 11 21:14:35 or you mean that's not working too? Apr 11 21:23:51 I have no clue how to use pppd .. to be honest :) Apr 11 21:24:31 I looked at pppconfig briefly but had no clue how to use it .. Apr 11 21:25:02 i guess today people use modem manager or sth like that if they are not using network-manager Apr 11 21:25:35 sounds like it comes from some desktop env Apr 11 21:26:13 using pppd directly isn't that difficult though ... just needs a few files. you'll find many tutorials online Apr 11 21:26:49 I'll have a look at modem manager .. because I'm extremely lazy :P Apr 11 21:28:49 typically only involves adding your APN to /etc/chatscripts/gprs, and your correct device in /etc/ppp/peers/provider Apr 11 21:30:16 from what I can see modem manager doesn't actually connect the network Apr 11 21:30:27 I can just see phone/sim/operator details Apr 11 21:31:35 mmm, that's weird. tbh i have never used it, but at least when i look at it, looks to me like it can do connections Apr 11 21:31:48 ok I'm looking at modem-manager-gui Apr 11 21:32:05 that's the same I am looking at :) Apr 11 21:32:07 not mmcli (which is the interface to use it from what I can tell) Apr 11 21:32:08 ok :) Apr 11 21:34:50 maybe it just doesn't see your N900 as a modem. did you choose PC-Suite mode? Apr 11 21:35:38 ah, derp Apr 11 21:36:38 and then how to enable the network connection? Apr 11 21:37:26 should not need anything further Apr 11 21:38:16 I should get an ip by the provider no? Apr 11 21:38:24 yes Apr 11 21:38:29 typically Apr 11 21:38:33 it says disconnected too Apr 11 21:38:57 should set an APN somewhere ... **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Apr 12 03:00:05 2018
