Debian Hardware :: Lenovo X140e Laptop - Getting Broadcom BCM43228 Working On Jessie

Feb 1, 2015

It's for a Lenovo x140e laptop with Jessie. Specs online commonly describe the laptop as having BCM43142 but I ran "lspci -knn | grep -iA2 net" and the output says I have BCM43228. Not sure why there is that discrepancy but I am assuming the latter, BCM43228, is what is actually in my computer.

Anyway, I originally installed "broadcom-sta-common", "module-assistant", and "broadcom-sta-source", but that resulted in nothing happening so I think I am going to "apt-get purge" those and start over.

I know about the Debian wiki "wl" page but it only provides instructions up to Wheezy, not Jessie. And I read many previous threads but they often contain different instructions and mixed results, plus there are many moving parts here (kernel, OS, driver, packages) and the instructions seem to be changing over time.

I was thinking I'd install these:

1) firmware-realtek
2) wireless-tools
3) module-assistant
4) broadcom-sta-common
5) broadcom-sta-dkms
6) broadcom-sta-source

Does the order of install for those above packages matter at all? Do I need the kernel header or not and, if so, how do I use it? Are there any other packages I need? What is the process?

Output of "lspci -knn | grep -iA2 net"

Debian Hardware :: Lenovo ThinkPad SL410 - Upgraded Wheezy To Jessie And Lost USBs

May 8, 2015

I run Debian with Gnome on a beat up workhorse ThinkPad. I upgraded to Jessie last week with just one issue. Before the upgrade, I could plug in a USB drive (I use a couple of WD MyPassports most often) and they would mount, read, and write without a hitch.

Since the upgrade, when I plug in a USB drive, the file manager (3.14.1) sees the drive, but when I click on the drive to access/mount it, I receive a dialog box reading: Oops! Something went wrong. Unhandled error message: Error when getting information for file '/media/user/MyPassport1': Input/output error.

If I hit the little “eject” button in the file manager, then mount the drive as root from a command prompt [e.g., mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /media/external] I can run a directory of the drive, but ls -l /media/external fails. From the command prompt I am unable to perform reads or writes to the drive.

Rebooting into recovery mode (i.e., without Gnome), I get the same behavior with CLI messages reporting I/O errors with the drive. I can run a directory, but ls -l, reads, and writes fail.

This behavior is the same on all three USB ports. It is not limited to these MyPassport devices.

The drives work flawlessly on another headless machine upgraded to Jessie the same day. And on another still running Wheezy.

If I boot the ThinkPad from a live CD (Mint 14, I believe) the USB drives mount, read, and write fine.

My BIOS is up to date, 1.52.

lspci -v says this about USB ports:

Code: Select all00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [UHCI])

Debian Hardware :: Jessie - Broadcom BCM57810 Fails To Load

Debian :: Cannot Fin Pipe Key On Lenovo Laptop

Jan 14, 2010

I'm new to Linux and I'm still trying to make my linux work on an external drive. I think I have found how, but I need to use the pipe symbol in a command line and I don't have it on my keyboard.I've tried different settings for my keyboard and different language, but nothing seems to do; I try all the keys, with shift or alt, but nothing works.I'm working on Debian, Lenny, with a Lenovo 3000 v100 Laptop. Nowhere on my keyboard do I have the symbol I am looking for. I have the vertical bar divided in two, but not the continous one.Do I need somehow to remap my keyboard or add a function to a key?

Debian Hardware :: Xbacklight Not Working - Lenovo S10

Mar 17, 2016

I'm trying to change the backlight via xbacklight but this is not working. Although

Code: Select allxbacklight -set X

causes

Code: Select allxbacklight -get

to return X, the real monitor backlight is unchanged.

The XF86MonBrightnessDown (fn+some-key) isn't working either, although it may have been working earlier.

How can I further debug this issue?

Why are the extensions ["", "txt", "text"] "not allowed" for upload?

I tried stracing the xbacklight call, I'm including the output, but I can't make anything out of it.

Is there a way to do this via xrandr or is there a lower-level way?

Debian Installation :: Bluetooth Not Working On Jessie

How to get Toshiba Satellite's bluetooth to work. Here is output that I think may be useful.... but I could be wrong. Pretty much everything I have found is outdated, has dead links, or didn't work.

So far, I've learned (at least from what I've understood) it has to do with kernel drivers/modules not working. I'm on Jessie right now since my graphics driver didn't work on the stable kernel.

Debian :: Wakeonlan Stopped Working On Upgrade To Jessie

Jul 2, 2015

Dell Vostro 230 with integrated Broadcom NIC.

Wakeonlan was working just fine with Wheezy on this machine. After upgrade, wakeonlan will resume from suspend but not from shutdown.

I have no problem with other machines (same software setup) after upgrade. None of my other machines have a broadcom NIC.

No BIOS settings were changed during the upgrade. If I enter the BIOS on boot and make sure settings are correct then 'save' and shutdown, without booting to debian, I can then successfully wakeonlan. Then, if I do not boot debian, but shutdown before debian starts, I can wakeonlan successfully again.

If I boot debian and then shutdown, game over: wakeonlan nolonger works.

$ ethtool eth0 | grep -i wake
Supports Wake-on: g
Wake-on: g

A bit of research found the suggestion:

$ lspci -tv | grep -i ether

Debian :: Jessie - Zsh In Tmux / Tab Menu Selection Stopped Working

Jun 29, 2015

I installed Jessie (8.1.0) and encountered a problem which is non-existent in Wheezy (7.8.0).

My shell is zsh and I use tmux both installed from packages, I use this zsh feature that when you type "ls /" and then hit "Tab" twice, it will present you a menu where you can select the directory you want navigating the menu with the arrow keys. It works fine out of tmux (in bare shell) but stopped working inside a tmux session. In bare shell you hit Tab twice and get into the menu, in tmux you hit Tab twice and it displays the table of suggestions but just keeps cycling suggestions (cycling directory names) and not sending me to the menu.

Here's some screenshots:

1) Working (no tmux): I hit tab twice and got in the menu.

2) Not working (in tmux): I hit tab twice and it just cycled directory names after "/"

t isn't in my config file, I tried without my .tmux.conf (with tmux set to default settings) and it still had no effect.

Debian Configuration :: WYSIWYG Editor For Elog Not Working In Jessie

Oct 21, 2015

I installed elog 2.9.2+2014.05.11git44800a72 on my Jessie system. When entering a new post just a simple plain text editing box is shown instead of the WYSIWYG editor, and no drag and drop area for attachments is shown. When I start the elog service with "systemctl start elog" I get this suspect message in the journal: "FCKedit NOT detected".

Indeed, I see that the elog installation creates a symlink which I guess is supposed to point to the fckeditor installation, which nevertheless is missing:

Code: Select allroot@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll fckeditor
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Oct 25  2014 fckeditor -> ../../fckeditor
root@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll ../../fckeditor
ls: cannot access ../../fckeditor: No such file or directory

I installed ckeditor 4.4.4+dfsg1-3 but his did not fix the problem. I'd say that either the elog package is broken or that it misses a dependency on a package providing FCKedit. Or maybe my system is misconfigured?

Debian Multimedia :: Graphics Stop Working After Upgrade To Jessie

I upgraded from wheezy to jessie, but now I just boot to a console. I've gone through and made sure all packages are up to their latest versions, and I've made sure gnome, xorg, and xserver-xorg are reinstalled (during the upgrade they got uninstalled..).

Here's what happens when I run startx manually:

Debian Hardware :: Logitech Wireless Mouse Not Working On 64 Bit Jessie

Sep 22, 2013

I have a couple of Logitech wireless mice (M325) with USB Unifying receivers, one for a couple of netbooks (Asus & HP) and one for my old desktop. These have been working very nicely

under 32 bit OSs :-

Windows XP

Debian testing (Wheezy & Jessie)

I now have a new 64 bit desktop (Intel i5) and the Logitech mouse

DOES work with :-

The Bios
Windows 7

But it does NOT work with :-

Debian Jessie

I have found an old mechanical Sun 3 button mouse (USB), which has got me
working to some extent, but does remind me why I got an optical wireless mouse!

My old 32 bit desktop reports :-

Code: Select all$ uname -a
Linux copper 3.10-2-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.10.7-1 (2013-08-17) i686 GNU/Linux
 
Code: Select all$ lsmod | grep hid
hid_logitech_dj        13054  0
usbhid                 36040  0
hid                    64702  2 usbhid,hid_logitech_dj
usbcore               110348  4 uhci_hcd,ehci_hcd,ehci_pci,usbhid

[Code]....

I need to get the comparative info off the new desktop, but I am currently hampered by the old mouse and the bug, whereby when I asked for the LXDE desktop I also got Gnome installed, and Lightdm ignores my request to start LXDE and dumps me in Gnome!!

The main differences that I have found was in the modules where the 32 bit one uses uhci_hcd, while the 64 bit one uses xhci_hcd. The dmesg section is like the above, finding the Unifying device, but is missing the last line where djdevice finds the mouse..

Debian Hardware :: WiFi Printer Is Not Working After Upgrade To Jessie

Sep 22, 2014

A couple of days ago I followed a guide online in order to install Adobe Reader and this guide recommended a specific package that needed the jessie repository, I added it (unaware the jessie was the name of the new distribution on testing) and so I found myself upgrading to Jessie, which is fine since is working quite alright, but since then I can't sent any document to my wi-fi printer.

I had no problem with Wheezy, I installed two printers: one connected to the usb interface and the other one to the wifi (but is actually the same). With Jessie when I try to print something and select the wi-fi one nothing happens. If i try to add a new one I can't since debian doesn't find it and I can't even delete the old "malfunctioning" one.

I have done this when I ran Jessie on my PowerBook and sound worked with no issues. Now on this iBook I have ran both Lubuntu and Ubuntu-MATE with sound working by using this method. However when I installed Jessie I loaded the module, got aslmixer to load and set my PCM Channel but no sound.

Debian Hardware :: Sound Not Working Through Speakers Since Moved To Jessie

I've been having problems with audio not working through the speakers since I upgraded to Jessie. I did a fresh install, the same hardware worked out of the box on Wheezy. Audio does work through the headphones - searching Google results in a LOT of similar issues on various distros, but none of the suggestions I've found have worked. Pulseaudio is not installed.

Alsamixer shows that the speakers are un-muted, and toggling the headphone auto-mute in case that was causing problems doesn't work. lsmod shows that snd_hda_codec_hdmi is loaded and in use - could it be trying to send sound via HDMI? Odd, because this laptop does not have an HDMI port. Blacklisting that module doesn't seem to make a difference however.

Debian Hardware :: Broadcom 4313 Wireless Not Working On 6.0.1a?

I just installed latest stable Debian (KDE) on my laptop, Dell Vostro 3400, which uses Broadcom 4313 (I think) wireless controller. I did install the proprietary driver package from Debian called breadcom-sta-common<version no>.deb. I remember it's the same driver I used for my previous Ubuntu installation. I also installed the KDE Network ManagerFront-End and the wireless tab on the manager is disabled (greyed out). I finally tried the steps from Debian Wiki Wireless section and at the end, when I run "modprobe wl", it says "FATAL: Module wl not found". Is there some more steps I need to do?
