CentOS 5 Hardware :: D-Link DWA-140 On C5 Disappearing / Fix It?
Jun 26, 2010
I recently bought a D-Link DWA-140 USB wifi adapter for use with my CentOS 2.6.18-194.el5 hoping that it would work seamlessly due to its popularity but having issues with it.
The USB adapter is detected in the System > Administration > Hardware.
It also appears in lsusb:
but when I went into System > Administration > Network it does not appear in the Hardware tab.
After some searching I found out that I need to install some packages which I did.
Namely, rt2870-firmware rpm and kmod-rt2870sta
Then I turned NetworkManager on as a service and through the docked applet on the top menu bar I was able to connect to my wifi net.
However when I rebooted the connection wasn't re-established and when I click on the NetworkManager applet icon it tells me "No network devices available"
Where did my USB adapter and joy go? :(
I can't for the life of me get the adapter to re-surface even if I go to System > Administration > Network and try create a new interface.
No devices appear there in the Devices tab and nothing in the Hardware tab.

I created two software RAID1 arrays with the following commands:
mdadm --create /dev/md2 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 -v /dev/hda5 /dev/hdc5
mdadm --create /dev/md3 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 -v /dev/hda6 /dev/hdc6
and I verify that /dev/md2 and /dev/md3 exist. But if I reboot the computer, these two devices are gone. I'm sure I am overlooking a step but I can't seem to find what it is. Could someone tell me what I need to do next?

I have an intermittent issue with with Samba. I can access my samba share with windows xp and vista using windows networking and even by mapping the share to a drive. The problem is that the files and folders disappear inadvertently and I can only access them again if I open the share again from the start with windows explorer. Selinux is disabled and the firewall ports for samba are open. The following software is installed:
samba 3.0.33-3.15.el5_4
samba-client 3.0.33-3.15.el5_4
samba-common 3.0.33-3.15.el5_4

I am Setting up 3 HP Proliant servers with 2 250GB Hard Drives in each. How Do I mirror the drives, and link all the servers together??? I am installing Centos 5.3. From the software install menu I installed Gnome, and the Server software, but can't seem to figure out how to get into the server side of it from gnome. Sorry for all the questions, but I have been out of the loop of all this for about 8 years and trying to re-learn everything.

CentOS 5.2. I have D-Link WUA-1340 wireless USB adapter that uses the rt73usb driver / module. At least I worked in Fedora 9 out of the box with that driver / module. I assume the Fedora 9 kernel supported it.
I really do not want to try and add a custom kernel to my instalation but I am wondering how I can get this to work on centOS 5.2.
I know first step is to get the adapter to be recognized by the system kernel. I think I can configure the network after that.

I'm trying to compile libetpan-0.57 on RedHat Enterprise Linux 5.2 64-bit and it is refusing to link against the 64 bit system libraries. I've tried everything I can think of. I've tried to hack libtool, run the command make was trying to run manually and changing the library search paths but nothing works. When I run the command make tried to run manually and change -L/usr/lib to -L/usr/lib64 most of the "skipping incompatible" library messages disappear except for "/usr/lib/libexpat.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format." Below is the output when I run make code...

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. The /kernels folder is empty.I think I need to reinstall the identified kernel in that directory and reestablish a link to it. but am not savy enough to do that on my own.

I'm running a Poweredge 4400 with a 3com card and an intel card covered under e100.
I'm using centos 5.5 in its default server config coming from gentoo.
I have no link on either of the two interfaces, ever. The card initialises with ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready and then falls back to half duplex but still with no connection.
I have manipulated most of the general settings that can be changed with ethtool.
Set to manual configuration with 100/full duplex
The cards are recognized alone and together. I have setup static interfaces with no problems. The ping to the local interface such that:
nic = 192.168.1.10
ping 192.168.1.10
we get back route times and all is well
ping 192.168.1.1
no route...
I have tried several different cables verified good other connections. I have verified the ports I am connecting to work correctly. I have manually shut down the onboard nic (in bios) and tried the 3com card alone. I have tried pci=routeirq, thinking there might be an irq issue.
If this was just the one card, I would install another and move on, but both nics are acting in exactly the same way.

I have CentOS5.4 which runs fine with wired internet but when tried to configure a wireless adpter I am not successful. My Network manager is running fine but I can not see nm-applet.
When I run "for BUSID in $(/sbin/lspci | awk '{ IGNORECASE=1 } /net/ { print $1 }'); do /sbin/lspci -s $BUSID -m; /sbin/lspci -s $BUSID -n; done" I get the following:

I have a problem. I want interface to shut down once there is a link down state detected. If you set up eth0, and then plug cable out, eth0 stays up, just loosing the RUNNING flag. I want it to go down completely.
I've stumbled upon netplugd, and I've tried using it. It is a daemon that detects states in (link up) and out (link down) from kernel netlink interface. If I have this daemon up, it detects that link is down (eg. cable removed from interface), and it runs correctly /etc/netplug.d/netplug eth0 out. That script then runs ifdown eth0. And that's ok.
But very next moment netplugd runs /etc/netplug.d/netplug eth0 probe, and probe section of that script runs "ip link set eth0 up", which then turns interface back on!I've tried commenting out that line, but then new problem occurs - after the link is up, netplug cannot figure that out and bring back interface. Has anyone have this kind of problem, and any viable solution with netplug?

what I need is : 1/ make run the wifi USB card D-Link DWA-110
2/ I saw I had problems with yum: when I launch the "add/remove programs" button in the menu, if the "c5-media" item is checked (and only this one) and the DVD of centOS is in the drive, then I have this message : "cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: c5-media. Please verify its path and try again" I specify I modified the /var/run/yum.pid file (removed the only number which was here)
the main issue for me is the yum failure, because it could be needed for the wifi problem. one thing after the other! the installation is totally new (except that I modified the yum.pid file).

In the ordering of files I keep I need links to directories. Sometimes I even need to move directories to new locations. I have tried using symlinks, but they become dead when I move the directory they point to. I have tried hard links, but I haven't found any Linux file system that would support hard linked directories. How can I achieve that a complex structure of directories (currently with symlinks for directories and hard links for files) keep symlinks live when directories are moved?
- is there any utility that updates symlinks when a directory is moved?
- is there any Linux filesystem that supports hard linked directories?
- is there any good Linux interface to the new NTFS (the only file system I know to support automatically updating directory links, called directory junctions)?

I have a problem where I'm using Ubuntu linux to mount a Windows Vista machine's USB drive and access it on the web using Apache. I did have the USB drive plugged into the Linux machine directly and that was working via the web. FollowSymLinks is on in httpd.conf
[Code]....
The mount works and I can see the files (see above) from my regular linux user account. If I make a test file in /mnt and soft link to that, I can see it on the web. So it's just the mount to the vista machine that seems to be a problem. It's supposed to be a simple read-only mount and the apache login should (I think) be able to see the same generic root access permissions.
log from apache: [Mon Apr 26 20:39:42 2010] [error] [client 99.99.99.99] Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /home/user1/pub_html/Music, referer: https://xx.xx.xx/~user1/music.html
The credentials have a login and password that matches a special read-only account on Vista. I can see the files on the system from Linux, but not via the web. As mentioned above, a different link to the same /mnt area works fine via the web. I've tried several different mount options with no success.

I have searched around and am trying to understand the difference between a hard link and symbolic link (soft link). I found this link is quite useful. But I am still not very clear. I understand soft link is not a copy of original file, but is a hard link a copy or not?

I have a desktop that has a d-link DWL-520 wireless card, which was working under Windoze. Today I installed Centos 5.4 on the system , which went cleanly. I then used Network Configuration to set up the wireless card. I specified to use DHCP, set the SSID and authentication password. When I tried to activate the card I get these error messages
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06): SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported. Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A): SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument. Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A): SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument. Determining IP information for wlan0.
The hardware manager seems to have correctly identified the card and chipset, (Intersil Prism 2.5) and installed driver hostap_pci which came with the distro. This web site seems to suggest that this is the correct driver: [URL] searching forums I've found a few references to these errors, but they were from several years ago, and for different distros and cards. I did find a reference to using Network Manager to configure the card instead of Network Configuration. I started the NM service and configured a connection using it instead, but still no luck.

There is a symlink from /var/www to a personal directory. FollowSymlink and chmod 755 are all set. It works perfectly until each morning I will get a "Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible" error. When I do a "sudo service apache2 restart", the problem will go away.
