CentOS 5 Hardware :: Installing 3c905B Not Recognized By OS?
Jun 29, 2011
I am trying to install a 3com 3c905B NIC. When the system boots, it is recognized but Centos5.6 does not see it.I have tried to manual load the 3c59x module but no luck.My kernel is: 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue May 31 13:22:04 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/LinuxI have also tried to install a TrendNet TEG-PCITXR and a SpeedStream SS1019. Again, the BIOS recognizes them but not the OS.If I can't get CentOS to recognize atleast one of these, I will have to switch to another Distro.

I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 beside my Windows XP on my laptop:
Dell XPS 1330
I`m now facing some problems with my new OS :
1. The driver for my wireless network card isn't recognized although I have installed the recommended driver which was in Ubuntu Hardware Driver section.
2. When I connect my laptop to my TV using HDMI port, the screen is OK but there is no sound!
3. When by any reason my network cable is unplugged, the whole network service goes down and I have to restart the system.
lspci results:

I have 6 GiB RAM installed in a server. The bios shows 6. They're all identical sticks. The OS says there's 4 though. I'm not sure what to do now. Dell says it should be able to use up to 12 GiB.

I can't get CentOS to stop seeing my drives as a fakeraid, even though I disabled the raid settings in the bios. Therefore, I can't install. Previously, this box was running Vista 64 bit. I have an nVidia mainboard and two 500 GB sata drives. The mainboard offered raid support, so I enabled it. Windows saw the drives as a single raid0 drive and installed on it flawlessly. Never had a problem. Two days ago, I finally got off my horse and decided to get rid of windows and install CentOS. I left the raid intact, installed CentOS on the fake raid. Upon rebooting, GRUB wouldn't load. Booted up a live disk, fdisk saw the drives separately but couldn't read data from them.
Tried a second install, same problem. Wiped out the the data on the drives using gparted. Tried a third install, same problem. Did some research, found out that my raid was really a fakeraid and that a better option for my needs is a softraid. Disabled the fakeraid in the bios. Booted up the installer. It still loads the nvidia /dev/mapper driver. It still sees the drives as a fakeraid. Wiped out the drives using gparted. Booted up the installer. Still sees the drives as a single /dev/mapper/nvidia_lkjwer drive. Installed Ubuntu to see if I'm crazy, or if it's centOS. Ubuntu installed w/o a problem (on a single drive). Enabled, disabled, tweaked every freaking possible bios setting. Still sees the drives as a fakeraid.

I have just installed a NEC 3.0 PCIe board in my CentOs 5 box, but the card is not recognised, and no drivers seem to be loaded for it. lspci says: USB Controller: NEC Corporation Unknown device 0194 (rev 03) The vendor says the board is supported on Linux kernels 2.6.16 and later. uname says my kernel is 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5
How do I get this device to be recognised, and drivers loaded for it?

I just installed centos 5 on a hp dl380 server and it has 2 72.8 scsi gig hard drives. The problem I am having is that only one hard drive is being recognized and it is not being recognized as a scsi. This is what I get from fdisk -l
Disk /dev/cciss/c0d0: 72.8 GB, 72833679360 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 8854 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 14 8854 71015332+ 8e Linux LVM
as you can see, the system doesn't even see the second hard drive. How do I get both hard drives to be seen and how do I get them to be recognized as scsi?

I set up my vsftpd server, but when using "sftp servername" it's not using vsftpd but another (what seems like) built-in sftp server. Even when I stop the vsftpd service I am still able to get a prompt to log in. I haven't installed any other ftp servers.

With CentOS-5.5, centos plus enabled, my LaCie external hard drives are not recognized even though connected and powered up before booting. I am logging in as root. Previous 2.4 kernel RHEL Enterprise 3 required a special scanning script which worked with this computer. This current system will not recognize the drives as hardware. On the other hand the drives with USB 2.0 ports automount connected with USB and also are recognized in the hardware list. what diagnostics to do to find out what layers / drivers are missing.

I have a problem to configure my wifi card, a dwa-110 from D-Link, it is not recognized when I launch System / network device control (only ethernet connections appear), and it is the same thing in Administration / network / network configuration. But if I launch administration / hardware / system devices, the last line is "Ralink 802.11 bg WLAN"... When I try to add in the window "network configuration" (from above) some new stuff, I specifying the kind of hardware (wireless) and when I have to enter the name of the card I don't see my card. On other OSes, I used ndiswrapper, but I wasn't able to install it on CentOS (dependencies required and it's hard with only a USB key to install the stuff...) How to see if the card is recognized, if I have to use ndiswrapper and so on. I have an internal PCI network card also, maybe it is this card which is recognized.

OS Version: CentOS 5.3
Motherboard: ASUS M3A78-CM (BIOS v.2003)
I have a single disk running the base OS and just installed 2 x Seagate 500GB SATA 3.0 drives in a RAID1 set that I would like to use for data storage. The OS sees the drives individually but not the RAID. Has anyone worked with a similar board and has any ideas what I need to do to get the OS to recognize the RAID1 array?

i've got a DELL Tower UPS 1000W which i would make work with a Linux CentOS 5.4 64-bit (kernel 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5) system using USB connection.Dell claims that this UPS is 100% working with RHEL 5.x (w/ serial and usb), but they don't provide support for CentOS (even if it's quite the same linux distribution)...When i plug in the USB cable the system reports:
usb 6-2: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
usb 6-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

I have spent them with Fedora and liked it a lot. Today I decided to install CentOS as this looks like something I would like to be using in the future. However a problem I could not solve came right at me after the first boot.
I have one eth0 device which is onboard lan and that was correctly recognised and activated. The second device is F5D5055 Belking USB Gigabit ethernet adapter. There was no problem with it whatsoever under Fedora. According to all the info it should be automatically recognised on kernel 2.6.14 and later. However when I plug it into the USB port, I can see its correct name in the device manager but it is not recognised as a network device. I have configured my Fedora as a firewall/router for my lan and definitely want to use that interface.
Hopefully without needing to do anything in the realm of compiling kernel, cause that is where my half a day long attempt to fix the problem left me.

I have a backup HDD with a different distro for my laptop and i can boot into it via external usb or if swapped into the laptop. This HDD/install in question is debian testing and was working fine, the issue arose suddenly. I was first suspecting a failure of hardware somewhere on the motherboard, but the hdd i was using with an external usb adapter also works when installed into the machine. also, the HDD is recognized once i have booted using the external HDD and distro, but it is not recognized by the bios. so i dunno, my first guess is something became corrupt within the testing install, but i guess its also possible that there is some wrong with the HDD but thats not immediately apparent as all the data is still accessible.
Should also note that the HDD with testing on it is also recognized when connected via the external usb adapter, while booted from alternative distro/HDD.
Also. just tried this, but i can get the testing HDD/disto to boot if connected externally. it was going pretty quick, but there i did catch a line about a corrupt filesystem. any commands to run to see what might be going on?? log files to look at?

The installer can't see my raid controller (I assume) as I'm getting the following error:"Error opening /dev/mapper/isw_jbhgjgjj_Vol0: No such device or address"It just sees them as 4 individual drives: sda, sdb, sdc and sdd.Please note that I have set up the RAID 5 in the controller bios interface and the image name is Vol0, which it seems that it tries to load but for some particular reason it can't.I have also tried different bios settings and nothing worked.

My problem is that I'm trying to install CentOS 5.4 x86_64 DVD ISO on Supermicro X7SBI server with installed Adaptec RAID 3405 controller.
I created RAID 5 array and is working fine (adaptec status says Optimal) but I can't install CentOS to that array (1.5TB size).
Whenever I try to install with: linux dd
I'm asked for a driver, which I have downloaded from Adaptec site and extracted contents to USB drive (in installation found as /sba1) which has now a lot of IMG and some ISO files on it.
I try to load (I simplified names) RHEL5.img, CENTOS.img... with x64 names (one exact name: aacraid driverdisk-CentOS-x86_64.img) and I always get the error message: "No devices of the appropriate type were found on this driver disk"
This is going on for a week now and I can't find the right driver or something I'm doing wrong to get install done.

I need your help urgently. I will shortly install Centos 5 on a HP DL380R05 E5420 Server with two HP 146GB 10k 2.5 SAS HP SP hard disks running hardware RAID-1. I am a newbie on CentOS, please advise me:
1. Do I need a Centos RAID device driver for hardware RAID-1 on the HP DL380R05 E5420 Server?
2. Should I use Centos i386 or Centos x86_64 in this case? Which one: CentOS 5.2 or CentOS 5.3?
3. Does Centos support Embedded NC373i Multifunction Gigabit network cards?
The following is my server's hardware configuration:
HP DL380R05 E5420 2GB Base AP Server(1) Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processor E5420 Two Embedded NC373i Multifunction Gigabit / 2 GB (2 x 1 GB) PC2-5300 Fully Buffered DIMMs (DDR2-667)/HP Smart Array P400/256MB Controller /Rack (2U)/Hot Plug Fully Redundant Fans Standard Two HP 146GB 10k 2.5 SAS HP SP HDD HP 1000W IEC C14 Cord RPS Kit

I want to install CentOS from netinstall CD, but it doesn't work for wireless connection, because it just looks up for eth0 connection. Well, I connected server to wired USB connection and it's named eth1. I want to use netinstall CD but using eth1 connection. Is there any way for doing it?

I am having new hardware and IDE driver for that hardware as drive disk image (it8213_centos53.img). CentOS 5.3 installation is working fine with drive disk image at USB and CentOS 5.3 at DVD. Our application uses CentOS 5.3 and we build a custom kick-start ISO for installations. Using that ISO client is going to install on all hardware boxes.
Note while installing :
a) No network connection is avalible.
b) No USB isavalible.
c) No floppy is avalible.
d) Only single CD-ROM is avalible.
So, is it possible to build single custom kick-start CentOS 5.3 ISO which contains dirve disk image and entire installation will be done using that image. If so please let me know the steps to build it.

I just installed Ubuntu 11.04. The drive was formatted when I installed so it's 100% Ubuntu. The only major problem I have encountered is that Ubuntu will not recognize my SD cards. I really need to access these cards, all my film footage is on there. I think the internal SD card reader (If such a thing exists) would have been deleted during the installation process. I am a greenthumb to Ubuntu and have never used it before so I am rather stuck...

I've been trying to install the Fuppes media server onto CentOS and have had a few difficulties. I had to do a build from the source (svn build 578), then configure, make and make install. So far so good.Once I try to run fuppes, I get the error:[ERROR] Failed to bind socket to : 8.15.7.107:0.The documentation I've searched so far suggests that there is a config file that needs to be set with the appropriate ip address, but the file doesn't exist as the program hasn't started up yet!
