CentOS 5 Networking :: RealTek NIC Would Not Work
Jun 8, 2009
I installed CentOS 5.3 Final on a machine today and was having some problems with the NIC. When I installed CentOs the NIC would not work, I looked in the network configuration and saw that neither of my two NICS had IRQ's so I arbitrarily gave them some and they both worked fine. I then ran yum -update, installed updates and rebooted my machine. Again, the NICs stopped working, only this time setting the IRQ did nothing. I did some googling and found this thread: [URL] The output from the first two commands is as follows:
[root@localhost ~]# uname -rmi
2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 i686 i386
[root@localhost ~]# /sbin/lspci | grep ther 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10) 05:01.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10) I followed the steps outlined and my issue still remains.

I've got a new laptop with Ubuntu 10.10 (2.6.35-23-generic x86_64 architecture) and with a wireless adapter I can't get to work. The adapter is Realtek RTL8191SEvB:

[11.04 64 bit amd tx2500]
It seems ububtu is going backwards on driver support,
in 10.04 the driver support of my HP tx2500 was flawless,
and now the wired and wifi connections won't work:
ubunu does no recognize there is any wifi adapter, and the wired connection tries to connect and fails.
I installed the latest driver from realtek manually and no change.

I've done some research for CentOS and Linux support in general for this card, and I haven't found the answer I'm looking for. Does anyone use this card in a system of theirs, and, if so, how easy was it to set up? It's on an Asus M4A785T-M/CSM motherboard that I'm looking to purchase (Newegg link here for reference). I've seen a lot of Realtek cards have zero problems in Linux before, but I know each chipset is different.

I just recently installed CentOS 5.3 and to make a long story short I found the entry for my wireless card under the network settings but when attempting to activate the card the system locks up. I have to reboot at that point as nothing responds (keyboard, mouse, etc..).
Running the command /sbin/lspci -v reveals the following about the wireless card:

I have installed Ubuntu 9.04
uname -r
2.6.28-11-generic
Checked cable/network with 386Box running Ubuntu 8.04 all OK. Could not get Realtek 8168 on mother board to work on Gigabyte H55M-S2H motherboard. I tried to install r8168 driver but no luck ... so I bought another Linux compatible card which turned out to be a RTL8139c (eth1) and the driver I am using on this is card is 8139too.
[Code]....
My preference would be to get the motherboard ethernet working but perhaps the card may be easier to get working. Anyway after searching the net for ideas and trying different things I've just about given up. I have reinstalled Ubuntu today so eth0 is back to using the r8169 driver. I'm no expert so my attempts at following other recipies have so far failed. From what I have read the 8139too driver should have worked with the RTL8139C chip so I have run out of ideas. I must be doing something wrong.

I have a Samsung N130 with a Realtek 8192 wifi card (possibly 8192e, I'm not sure) and I am trying to run Fedora 12 on it. I used to run Ubuntu until trying their latest beta and realizing it's not very good, so I looked for something else. Ubuntu was at least easy to get the wifi working with just a few quick commands that were written out, word for word, in order, on the Ubuntu forums. I tried openSUSE on here and it didn't have wifi working out of the box either but people on their forums refused to give me actual instructions and just kept bumping me from thread to thread with people giving vague advice or else just telling me I was looking in the wrong place. I'm hoping that someone can give me clear and detailed instructions on how to get this wifi card working. Keep in mind that I am coming from Ubuntu and so I'm not super comfortable in CLI, if I need to do some CL stuff I will need clear and detailed instructions on how to do that.

I am trying to set up an unused machine as a web server for my students.
I originaly tried with Redhat 9 and had the same problems. I am using an HP Pentium 4 system with 2 network cards.
1) The built in Realtek RTL8139 configured as eth0.
2) An add in Broadcom BCM5782 Gigabit card that was added I presume when the built in card failed (we have a number of machines like this around the school), configured as eth1.
I did not realize the second card was installed when I had Red hat 9 on the system, but I discovered it after installing centos 5.5. I have tried to configure the system to use DHCP with and without getting the DNS from the provider, and both ways the system complains that there is no connection, check the cable, so it will not activate the device.
When I configure the device to use a fixed IP, I can configure the device, but I can't ping anything on the network other than myself. I suppose it is possible that both network cards have failed, but I get green link lights with both cards, when I connect them to my router, so I am at a loss as to why neither board seems to work. I don't have a spare network card to slide in because the computer takes a special mini card. Is there an easy way to test the board to see if the board is a problem?

I have a Centos 5.2 VM running under Windows 2008 Hyper-V. If I add two "legacy Nic's" and bridge them, everything appears to work fine. However, if I remove the legacy nics and replace them with two synthetic nics (linux integration components), the nics seems to function fine UNTIL I add them to a bridge.This VM will eventually be used as a DansGuardian/Squid transparent proxy for a local library. The logical layout is represented by the attached jpg image. I have also included the ifcfg- scripts for the adapters and bridge for both scenarios.It would also be useful if someone else has Hyper-V with the integration components and dual physical nics to see if they can reproduce my symptoms on their box.Legacy Adapters:
ifcfg-br0:
DEVICE=br0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp

This will be a little long (having read Phil's 'how to ask questions' FAQ). I'm trying to get OpenVPN working between my CentOS server and some Windoze laptops running XP. There seems to be plenty of sample
config files available, but to date, none of them have worked for me. Pulling out my trusty Wireshark, I've found some clues,
BACKGROUND:
My local subnet (NAT'ed by my gateway router) is 192.168.52.x. My router has been configured with a conduit (port-forward) for port 1194 (the standard OpenVPN port), which points towards my CentOS server.The CentOS server is .52.112, and the supplicant is .52.110. I have tried the lient both inside and outside my local subnet, with no difference in events or outcomes.

Installing Fedora13 Kernel 2.6.33 killed my RealTek NIC. I found the following page which helped a little bit: [URL]. Unfortunately the card still does not work.
If I do
lsmod | grep r81
I get:
r8168 91833 0
So I am not sure the really the new module is loaded. Doesn't anybody have the realtek working with fedora13 ?

I've been running my server for a few months now. I'm using the latest version of Lenny, regularly updated. The system is basic: it's a Celeron 1.2GHz-based machine with 512MB RAM. Since it runs SAMBA, I wanted it to run on Gigabit, so I bought a generic gigabit ethernet card with a Realtek RTL8169 chipset. For reference, the original ethernet adapter is an Intel 82801 (815 chipset) 10/100MBit. The card appeared in lspci when I first started up the system but eth1 wasn't up; I installed the Realtek drivers anyway (having installed all the kernel sources etc) and brought eth1 up. However, no matter what I do, it will NOT run at gigabit speeds!
It's plugged into a Belkin gigabit switch that I know will run at gigabit speeds; I've tried different ports and cables (including one that definitely allows gigabit) but nothing will allow the card to run at full speed. Eth0 is no longer set to automatic; only eth1 comes up on boot with a static IP.

Sound works with Jaunty Jackal. Does not work with Lucid Lynx. It appears that Lucid Lynx will only acknowledge that I have a modem as a sound card. I just want to add my RealTek ALC880 driver so the sound will work. I've made sure that I have audio privileges, I made sure that nothing is muted using alsamixer. I've been looking at threads and documentation for four days just to fix the sound issue and so I can be prepared in case this 'feature' ends up being continued in Maverick Meerkat and when I upgrade I can use M.M. with minimal fuss.

I just performed a fresh install of Suse 11.4. It worked great except that the network communication would cut in and out intermittently. I managed to solve the problem posting it here for other users and for future suse releases. I will give the hardware I am running, the symptoms and the fix:
Hardware
=======
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H67MA-UD2H-B3
Ethernet controller: Realtek RTL8111E
Default module: r8169 (run lsmod to see loaded modules)
[Code].....
1) First make sure that linux kernel source is installed in your system (yast software management)
2) ensure that gcc is installed (yast software management)
3) Download the latest linux driver for RTL8111E from the realtek website The one that I am running is the 8168 driver version 8.024.00
4) unzip the tarball (creates a directory called "r8168-x.xxx.xx")
5) As root run the autorun.sh from inside the newly created "r8168-x.xxx.xx" directory

I have a Biostar TA785GE which as I understand it, has a Realtek 8111DL on-board.
Booting with the default label from the 64-bit installation DVD crashes before any user input, with indecipherable text on-screen (text mode, not X11). Symptoms were the same with the Fedora 11 32-bit installation DVD and the Fedora 12 Live 32-bit CD. Booting with "linux text" mode shows a kernel panic in ":r8169:rtl8169_init_one+0x369/0x9d4" from "pci_device_probe+0x100/0x180".
Disabling the on-board NIC allowed the boot to proceed, and get as far as detecting the hard drive partitions (where I stopped it since Ubuntu is installed).
Ubuntu 9.04 Workstation(Desktop?) install DVD worked fine, and I've installed it and am using it to enter this. From Ubuntu 9.04 on this hardware:
- "uname -r" shows
Linux snoopy 2.6.28-16-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 20 19:48:32 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
- "lsmod | egrep '816|811'" shows:

I am not very experienced using Linux but I never had big problems with Ubuntu. Now I am busy writing my PhD thesis and therefore I had to install CentOS to use one lousy program that I could not get to work under Ubuntu. However, it seems to be quite fine and it is working well besides one fact: The network card stopped working. In the beginning it was working fine although the speed was only on the level of 100mbit. The switch and the LED on the card indicated gbit connection, though. I tried to install the driver for the 8168 card which reduced the card to 100mbit (indicated by the LED on the switch and the card).
Ethtool indicated it was gbit capable but I couldn't activate it. After reading more and more I figured I have to use the 8169 driver again and live with the 100mbit. Unfortunately, after uninstalling the old driver and reinstalling the driver 8169 the network isn't working at all anymore. The network-manager displays the card as inactive and when I try to turn it on it complains about the wrong mac address, which I am not able to change to the proper one. I am using CentOS 5.5 with the latest updates.

I can not get any output from the digital optical S/PDIF jack on my on-board audio device. But I am getting an analog signal from the headphone jack. I don't have an RCA S/PDIF cable, so I haven't tested the RCA S/PDIF jack. Below are my system specs and hardware info.
According to my MOBO (DFI Blood-Iron P45) manual, the Audio device is:
Realtek ALC885 HDA CODEC
8-channel audio output
Optical S/PDIF-out and coaxial RCA S/PDIF interfaces
There are 6 phone jacks (including 1 mic), an RCA S/PDIF, and an Optical S/PDIF jack on the MOBO. The output of alsa-info.sh is here:[URL]... Note that I tried several model options (6stack-dig, 6stack-dig-demo, intel-alc889a, auto) for the snd-hda-intel module, but none worked,

I am running a mail server and my POP3 clients have started complaining of slow speeds, about 10 days back. This prompted me to take remedial action on many fronts, finally I decided to look at the link itself.Attempts to force the NIC into full duplex mode using ethtool have failed. The command runs and throws me back to the prompt, but the NIC remains in half duplex mode.
Command that I have tried: ethtool -s eth1 speed 100 duplex full autoneg on modprobe -l r816*:

I have just installed CentOS 5, and am new to Linux. So I don't know much about the terminal commands or much of anything else for that matter.
I'm able to get online when I plug an ethernet cable directly to the computer, but cannot get it to recognize my wireless(which I do have the drivers for, and did work previously on Windows).
The card is a Linksys WMP54GS.
I downloaded ndiswrapper-1.54 but still cannot figure out how to get this to run. As I said, I'm new, so I'm not sure what information other than that to provide, and how to access it, so you may have to guide me through that.

I have been a loving fan of your software for years now and have been trying to move into a new dedicated server, getting away from my VPS I have been anchored to. I had to change static ip's on my main internet line and thus got locked out of my server. I have the box here and I can console into it but I cannot get the new ip address to work. I have tried so many things it would waste more time than asking for the correct answer.
I know you are wise in the ways of the server as you have gotten me out of a jam in the past. I am currently running Centos 5.4 and a trial version of WHM/cPanel (which needs to be re-registered to the new address if I can ever get back online.)

When I try something like, I get:
iptables -A FORWARD -p udp -m length --length 39 -m u32 --u32 '27&0x8f=7' --u32 '31=0x527c4833' -j DROP
iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.
So I re-compiled the kernel enabling WAN Router, and all the subsections. Downloaded latest iptables, removed the RPM one, installed the iptables from source.. Guess what, same error!
PS: iptables -m u32 -h works, it displays a page of info.

I am trying to monitor a Centos 5.3 box using SNMP and I am having a lot of trouble getting the data that i need from it. Everytime I try to get information from the UCD-SNMP MIB it returns "End of MIB". It is my understanding that UCD-SNMP is a standard package when Net-SNMP is installed and should always be there. Then why can't I access it? I have tried removing the reinstalling Net-SNMP, but that hasn't worked. My server is update date on all it's patches as well. It is quite old hardware, but I don't believe that should affect SNMP from being gathered. Iptables is down, and I cant' even get it from the local machine.

I've been running CentOS on my laptop for a few weeks now. I don't know what happened today, but when I boot up, the NetworkManager wont show up on the panel, and I don't have access to wireless networks or Internet. I tried booting my Windows partition and the wireless works fine. I can't seem to remember any latest change I've made aside from the wallpaper =) Any ideas where I should start debugging? I could see the module "iwl3945" still loaded. Here's a manual type of my lsmod | grep iwl3945
