CentOS 5 Hardware :: Figure Out Wireless Cards Will Be Supported By The Kernel?

Jul 29, 2011

Looking at getting a new laptop for some of the guys in my office, but trying to figure out if any of these wireless cards will be supported by the kernel, hoping not to do any serious kernel hacking to get them working. The cards are

- Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 802.11a/b/g/n
- Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 802.11a/b/g/n
- Dell Wireless 1501 802.11b/g/n
- Dell Wireless 1530 802.11a/g/n

If any one has experience with those cards being supported let me know, or if you know where i can find the drivers for them that'd rock too.

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Any List Of Wireless PCI Cards Supported By OSS 11.3?

Aug 21, 2010

I recently read over here: Getting Your Wireless to Work : "For example, open-source firmware for the Broadcom BCM4306/3 BCM4318, and BCM4311/1 was just released. Future openSUSE versions will be able to include this firmware and those devices will work immediately..." I am looking for PCI cards for desktops. Besides the list of supported chipsets at [URL], is there a brand name list with firmware support by OSS 11.3? At the moment, I have a Netgear WG311v3 which believe has been causing system instabilities in both linux and windoze:
01:06.0 Ethernet Controller [0200]: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88w8335 [Libertas] 802.11 b/g Wireless [11ab:1faa] (rev 03)

Hardware :: Wondering Why More Wireless Cards Not Supported

Jul 29, 2010

It seems like the wireless card is just about the only piece of hardware without much support in Linux. Is there any particular reason that they've been so overlooked? Like is it harder to write a driver for them or something?

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Edimax WiFi Cards Is Supported?

Mar 14, 2011

which chipsets are on the PCi and PCie cards, EW7722in and EW-7612PIn, and whether they can be made to run on a linux system. My system is recent (Linux home 2.6.37.2-0.6-default kernel) Do they have the same chipset as EW-7711In, which I notice has explicit linux support? Now this was on the 3/03/2011, and I had given up getting any kind of useful support, but I got a reply today. I hope they wont mind if I quote them:

Ubuntu Networking :: Any Newer Supported USB Wireless Cards?

May 2, 2010

Had a hard drive fail this week, and I am going to order a new one. I am using $150 dollars in Best Buy gift certificates. Well seeing as how I have some left over I would like to get a usb wireless adapter that would work out of the box (preferably usb although I could always get an internal). All Best Buy has are wireless N cards and I was wondering if anyone knows if any Wireless N USB cards work out of the box without downloading firmware or NDISwrapper.

CentOS 5 Hardware :: Can Find What Wireless Adapters Are Supported?

Jan 2, 2011

My recent CENT OS install went very well. However the only thing missing is wireless support for my modest FR-300USB Wireless adapter. Since I do not have the expertise to create a driver I need to know where I can find what wireless adapters are supported.

Debian Hardware :: Looking For List Of Supported Sound Cards?

Jul 8, 2011

I'd like to make a complete switch to Debian. One of the things holding me back is not knowing the state of play regarding sound card support. I've been fiddling around on and off for three years trying to get my M-Audio FireWire Solo to work in Ubuntu without much joy. I think there might be greater support for USB sound cards but I'm not certain of this. Onboard cards aren't OK because in my experience these pick up too much noise. After years of using balanced audio lines it's pretty much impossible to go back. That said, a PCIe card isn't completely out of the picture if I can get balanced outs with it.

I'm planning on plugging KRK powered monitors via XLR or TRS cables into the sound card. But my preference at this point is firmly with USB sound cards. Is there an up-to-date list I can check of supported sound cards in Debian? Can anyone here provide a testimonial of their experience? It's important to note that I'm after playback only. I don't want to record ever. That should hopefully make things easier. I'd be looking at using Debian wheezy.

Ubuntu Networking :: 9.0.4 - Supported Ethernet Cards That Work Flawlessly?

Apr 29, 2010

I'm running Ubuntu 9.0.4 with an Intel PRO/100 VE Network Connection. I have been trying for a couple weeks now different techniques to get my wired ethernet connection working properly. I have a seeming common issue with my e100 driver dropping connection and having hard time picking it back up sometimes. I want to purchase a relatively inexpensive Ethernet card whose generic Linux driver actually operates it CORRECTLY, open up comp and put it in, and update to 9.10. Any list of Ethernet cards that are know to work flawlessly on Ubuntu, or at least tell me which card YOU are using that works perfect without having to write code, install wrapper programs, etc...?

Slackware :: Can't Figure Out How To Get Wireless Running

Apr 28, 2011

so I know this is probably one of the most asked questions from Slackware noobs, but i can't seem to find an acceptable answer to this question. How to get wireless networking, working under Slackware linux.I know the tools i should be using(ifconfig, iwconfig) but I have no idea how to use them. I know the init script that I need to edit but I'm not to sure where to get the information it requires, such as the ESSID.I am running 13.1 64bit. I know that the wireless network I want to connect to uses WPA encryption.As well I have never used Slackware before, I've had the most experience with CrunchBang, the problem being wireless worked out of the box for that.

Slackware :: Can't Figure Out How To Get Wireless Working?

Feb 4, 2010

Ok, so I've been researching this like all day because I can't figure out how to get my wireless working on Slackware (and that's the only way I can get internet on my laptop here). So, when I run uname -a it tells me I am running kernel 2.6.29.6 According to http://intellinuxwireless.org/?p=iwlwifi since I have a Intel� PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection adapter the iwlwifi driver included with Slackware and the released drivers will not work.

So, I "need to use the compat-wireless project that retrieves the latest driver development code from the upstream repository." Problem #1 - I can't access the repository from Slackware without my wireless. Problem #2 - I have no idea how to get the files I need / configure my system to use them from my other OS (I am triple-booting Windows 7, Linux Mint, and Slackware). So, I THINK once I get the driver installed for my wireless it should be easy enough. I've already become pretty familiar with rc.inet1.conf from trying to get it to work so far, so if all I need to do after this is mess with that then I should be fine.explain if/how I can get the right driver set up in Slackware? I can access my Slackware partition from my other distro no problem.

I've only used Linux for about a year or two now and have worked through suspend esume and WPA wireless issues with CentOS and my T61p. However, I'm stumped on this one. why my T61p freezes randomly (happened once while writing this topic) with the caps lock light blinking. I'm wondering if it has something to do with my nVidia driversettings andor using my wireless card and/or switching between home wwireless and work wwired connection.

Debian Multimedia :: Two Sound Cards Sharing Kernel Module

Dec 5, 2014

I have an nvidia card and a motherboard with an internal sound card.

The nvidia card hogs alsa, and it's really obnoxious because I don't use hdmi for audio (or video, for that matter, crt all day)

I would normally just blacklist the module that the card is using, but I hit a hiccup...

This is the readout for the gfx card from lspci -v

Code: Select all01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation Device 0fbc (rev a1)
   Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 84bb
   Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 25
   Memory at fe080000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
   Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 3
   Capabilities: [68] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
   Capabilities: [78] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
   Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel

And this is the readout from the motherboards internal audio card

Code: Select all00:14.2 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40)
   Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device a132
   Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 16
   Memory at fe500000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
   Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
   Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel

Since they have the same kernel module, all the internet advice is pretty much moot, because I can't figure out how to effectively shut off one without killing the other as well. Huge PITA.

Ubuntu Installation :: Kernel That Supports Atheros Network Cards?

Mar 31, 2010

Does anyone have a kernel that supports Atheros network cards? I am using ASUS EEE PC netbooks and none of the kernels I have access to have drivers installed for the NICs. I am having issues when I try to build my own kernel and maybe someone has a precompiled one? Either that or if someone has a basic, step-by-step guide to building your own custom kernel. This is my first time building a kernel and I am kind of lost. This isn't actually for running Ubuntu I will be using it in an imaging program called FOG. I just need a kernel that will support these NICs so I am able to do some imaging.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Audio Chips Computability - Supported In Kernel 2.6.30?

Jan 5, 2010

I looked some new motherboards and most of them has these audio chips:

AUDIO: VT1708B
AUDIO: Realtek ALC1200
AUDIO: Realtek ALC800

how can I check, if they are supported in kernel 2.6.30? I looked at alsa page, and no information I have seen there. oldcpu, as I understund you, is not so important what audio chip is, but it is important to determine what hardware audio codec a device has, right? Let?s see Realtek ALC889 In realtek page: Realtek I can see details.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Cards Just Work (perhaps Usb)?

I've searched[URL].. which lists supported wifi cards, but most of the info on that page is not relevant to lucid, and hasn't been updated at all this year. I saw elsewhere that any card with the atheros chipset will work, but what cards have this? Will all of them with this chipset work?

Fedora Hardware :: FC14 With Two Broadcom Wireless Cards

Apr 19, 2011

My laptop has these Broadcom chipsets (from lspci):
Code:
00:09.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4321 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 01)

The 4321 is working fine with wl, but I can't figure out how to get the 4306 working. As I understand, I can't use wl for that one. I once had it working (in FC10 or so) with b43legacy, which is now blacklisted for wl. Unblacklisting it alone doesn't make the other card work. Is there some other configuration I need to do?
