CentOS 5 Hardware :: 5.6, 64 Bit And ASUS K52J - Unable To Build The Kernel?

May 19, 2011

djmack-5/19/2011-I have purchased an ASUS K52J (intel i7) laptop. I have installed Centos 5.5 (64 bit) from CDs. The I got all the updates and it's now up to 5.6. I have two problems.

(problem-1) - Using the GUI (System->Administration->Hardware) I can get to a Device Manager screen. It shows a JMC250 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller. Using the GUI (System->Administration->Network) I can only see the wireless (wlan0) as configured and active. The ethernet card is not seen as ether 0. I've seen there are downloads to solve this problem, however I've been 100% unable to do and or understand them. I don't know how to build the kernel and I don't have any source code. I only have the binaries (I think). Is there a version of the kernel that I can put on CDs that has understanding of the ether card I referenced above?

P.S. I've downloaded a binary fix and it says it needs 20 or so dependencies (I have zero idea how to get those).

P.S. I've downloaded a source fix and I couldn't get it to install (I'm not a linux kernel build knowlegable person). I don't have the source either.

(problem-2):As stated above I need direct (RJ45) access to the laptop. I currently have the wireless card working but I have no idea how to get this to work with httpd, ssh, scp.I can access things via a web browser right on the laptop. I cannot access this laptop via a web browser from any other box. I cannot access this box via ssh or scp.I disabled the firewall and I disabled the SELinux security.I am stumped as to why I cannot see this ASUS laptop via httpd and/or ssh/scp.I can ssh and scp to other linux servers but these servers cannot ssh or scp into this laptop.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Upside Down Video And Skype With Cairo Dock On Asus K52J?

Feb 13, 2011

I just bought an Asus K52J a couple of days. I of course got down right away to installing Ubuntu 10.10. Everything works fine except for a couple of problems with Skype.

In the past I already had the problem with Skype video not working while Cairo dock was running. I found a solution which consisted in changing the command line and making a custom launcher for Skype alone on my desktop. The command line was

export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 && skype Now, on this new laptop I have a new problem.....the webcam image is upside down! For this too I found a custom command line for skype to run properly.

export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=3 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype My problem is combining the two commands in one line so that Skype will run properly and this would thus solve my problem. Seeing that I am running Cairo dock as well i need to solve the incompatibility issue and also the inverted video in Skype.

I tried just copying and pasting them but it only solves the incompatibility with Cairo dock, the image in the meantime, remains upside down!

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Unable To Build The NVIDIA Kernel Module?

Feb 26, 2011

before i get a lot of annoyed responses, I did check the forum and found a couple older previous threads on this topic, but they don't seem to really explain any real solutions to the problem im having.Here's the story- I was looking around for instructions and found this "howto guide" on installing nvidia display driver [URL]I went through the steps he listed:

downloaded the driver packages, install the dependencies from the shell, and then i pressed CTRL+ALT+F2 to get out of X and into text mode. I stopped my gdm with the command: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stopand then i tried to install the driver using: sudo sh (on my NVIDIA driver- his version was a bit outdated compared to the one I downloaded)But here is where the problem starts, as I go through the installation process and click yes, i reach the "progress bar" then the screen says "unable to build the NVIDIA kernel module". and then it just exits. What is going on here? Am I missing some other package or file?

I'm trying to install a BCM 4312 wireless driver following the Centos howto. Howtos>Laptops>Witeless>Broadcom

On step 3, compiling ... module.I get No rule to make target `build' Stop.When I go to the /lib/modules/2.6.18.194.3.1.el5 directory, the Build file link is broken.If i go to the link source /usr/src/kernels/2.6 ...x86_64 does not exist.

CentOS 5 :: Want To Build 'ELF Shared Object' Kernel / Not 'ELF Executable'

Nov 9, 2010

I've been trying to use tracepoints on a newly installed Centos5.5 download, and crash when I call register_trace_sched_switch, which maps to tracepoint_probe_register(sched_switch, my_func) in tracepoint. h/DO_TRACE, where my_func is the function I want called back on a thread switch. I'm trying to do this from an installable module.So I downloaded the sources for 5.5 (current, 2.6.18-194), with the intention of kprinting my way through the above problem.Unlike the downloaded kernel, which is an "ELF 64-bit LSB shared object" (I'm building for an Intel Atom), when I build using "make" in my rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-26..18/linux-2.6.18.x86-64/ directory, I get an "ELF 64-bit LSB executable". When I try to boot it, I get the complaint "Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format".

The closest thing I could find on the web, was a suggestion, for some powerpc system, to use the "ELF executable" format instead of "ELF shared object", the opposite of my issue, and that such could be forced by using a CONFIG-RELOCATABLE manifest.I couldn't find any .config manifest that looked likely to produce the result I want.

CentOS 5 Networking :: Unable To Install NIC Driver - Asus Nettop EB1007 JMicron JMC250 PCI Express GB NIC

Dec 4, 2010

installing drivers for my onboard NIC card on my ASUS Nettop EB1007. The NIC is a JMC250 PCI Express GB. I first installed CentOS 5 on it and then it wouldnt show up. So I decided to try installing with Ubuntu and it was perfect. I didnt have to do anything else to get it detected. However, I would like CentOS 5 on this unit to practice on. Below is my attempt to install the kmod-jme-1.0.6.1-2.el5.elrepo.i686.rpm on a fresh CentOS install. Unfortunately, the dependencies are failing.

CentOS 5 :: Yum Kernel Update - Unable To Boot

Oct 24, 2010

I had a Centos 5.5 system working great...and then due to crazy curiosity, installed the kernel update. Did this through the graphical interface, uncheck all update other than kernel. It downloaded, installed fine..After reboot now all I get is GRUB_ and then nothing else! I waited 3-4 minutes and had to shut down system. Have been googling around but thought I will post it here as well..When I boot with Win7 and use Ext2fsd to check, the boot folder is empty. Not sure if this is because ext2fsd does not read boot folder or it got wiped out by the yum upgrade process.

CentOS 5 :: Unable To Boot New Kernel After A 'yum Update'?

Oct 26, 2010

I have recently run an update and now we are unable to boot the newer kernel. We get stuck as below;

Memory for crash kernel (0x0 to 0x0) notwithin permissible range
Red Hat nash version 5.1.19.6 starting
Unable to access resume device (/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol06)

[Code]...

The kernel version we were at was 2.6.18-194.el5 and the update move us to 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5. I've done some googleing but I'm unable to work out exactly what I need to do. I'm guessing the new kernal is missing a module?

CentOS 5 :: VMWare Unable To Find Kernel Header Modules

CentOS 5 :: EXT3-fs: Unable To Read Superblock And Kernel Panic

Aug 15, 2011

I got a CentOS server + KDE from a server (which I had no contact until now), he had 2 HD's one for the system and another for files.

I brought the HD system home to try to make it run on a virual machine (VMware) so I can do some testing before you put in practice.

But already converted the VMware HD to the system, it tries to start but it shows some errors and in a message "kernel panic - not syncing: attemped to kill init"

I think the drivers are correct, has edited the file "/ etc / modprobe.conf" edited these entries equal to another I installed CentOS on VMware.

alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase
alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptspi
ata_piix alias scsi_hostadapter2

Look at the picture attached the full error.

Fedora Hardware :: 13 & Asus P5Q Premium Kernel Panic?

Sep 21, 2010

Fedora 13 on Asus P5Q Premium, E7500 hangs after 10mins to 2 hour. After some trial and error, I found that the problem could be related to yum although it could be that it is only by running yum that I've been able to trace the problem. On runlevel 3 (to make sure it's not an X server problem), system hangs and prints the following message on the screen (copied it by hand, still have to figure out where to find it after system restart):

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00...0695
Ooops: 0000 [01] SMP
last sysfs file /sys/devices/virtual/block/md127/md/raid-disks
CPU 0

[code]....

I have a hw RAID setup but the problem is the same, only the numbers are a bit different.

It is not a hw-related problem either because both the latest Suse and Kubuntu install without problems (although both seem to have problems in starting with RAID installed, normal disk is OK). Of course, I only have myself to blame because Asus says that this mb is compatible with FC8 - I haven't been able to test because my machine seems to have problems in booting from install DVD - but I suspect it is because that was the time this mb was launched and they haven't tried it on more recent Fedora distros.

Interestingly enough, the same problem comes with F12 and F11, didn't have energy to go further back. I've been using RedHat since ver 5.2. and would hate to give up following the path now. Fedora just stands out from the crowd so much that I can tolerate some inconveniences. This is just a bit too much.

OpenSUSE Install :: No Kernel Found After Zypper Dup From 11.1 To 11.3 On Asus EEE PC 901?

Fedora Hardware :: Making Kernel Modules For Asus PCI-G31 Wireless Card?

Feb 1, 2010

I've got a wireless card and would like to make a driver module for it from the ralink tarball. Here's the details:

1. The Asus PCI-G31 uses the RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g chipset.

Code:

lspci
<some output omitted>
04:03.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI

2. I am using the latest driver download from www.ralinktech.com which is

2009_0123_RT61_Linux_STA_v1.1.2.3.tar.bz2

3. I followed the documentation and I think it makes a script. Here's part of the README from the tarball.

Code:

Build Instructions:

1> $tar -xvzf RT61_Linux_STA_Drv_x.x.x.x.tar.gz
go to "./RT61_Linux_STA_Drv_x.x.x.x/Module" directory.
2> $cp Makefile.4 ./Makefile # [kernel 2.4]
