i tried the new debian 6.0 live dvd and was so happy or the first time i had debian actually booting and then i was like o.O and what's up with my wireless and i then tried to install and the installer finally told me i need the iwlwifi395 drivers for my wireless so i copied that and now i have the drivers and i don't know how to build them to be like on the live image like straight in there since i boot have my wireless.

This is the problem I run lspci -v which checks all drivers on my system and more. It says kernel driver in use is nouveau. Then under that it says kernel modules: nvidia recent, nvidia-96, nouveau, nvidiafb. So what it looks like I have 3-4 drivers for my video card loaded and one, nouveau, being used. I think they conflict with each other.
I'm trying to add drivers other then nouveau, because the mouse freezes with it. At this point I can't seem to get rid of nouveau, I go to terminal and type:
sudo apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
And it says that it's not loaded so I can't dump it. lspci-v says nouveau is the driver being used and trying to dump it. It says it isn't installed. I'm confused. I want to dump nouveau, what should I do? I also go into Synaptic package manager and it isn't listed as being installed.
I booted Debian in Live mode on a USB to try to see if the internet will work on my Linux machine before I actually install it (there is some tricky internet software where I live that I must overcome, but that will come in another thread).
Currently I have no WiFi whatsoever. When I go into the internet access menu I only get back the fact that there is a wired connection that's possible (theoretically, I should be able to also see networks to which I can connect to, but I don't). Also, it's impossible for me to actually get a wired connection going, unless I can somehow give it through my Windows laptop.
When I did some research, the people seem to say that I need to update the driver after enabling the use of non-free software; I can't do that since I have no connection in the first place.
The OS recognizes that the PCE exists (I am using asus pce-ac68), when I did "lspci" command it told me I have BCM4360 and BCM43225 chips.
I think I found the drivers here "[URL] ......" but I don't think my chip is listed there (there is no BCM4360 or BCM43225 on that list). What to do with those drivers, I mean how to compile them and install them on a Debian machine, and I'm not sure I can even install them on a live boot (but I want to make sure my internet works on the live boot before I actually install the OS).
I just installed Debian on my hp dv6205us. I have a bcm94311mcg Bradcom wireless card that is not detected. How do I get this working?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have some problems with my WiFi card I'm configuring for Debian Wheezy. I've used it in other computers successfully (It's a USB device), but this box doesn't seem to be able to recognize it or use it properly.
I've identified the card using Code: Select alllsusb with the output Code: Select allBus 001 Device 002: ID 7392:7811 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7811Un 802.11n Wireless Adapter [Realtek RTL8188CUS]
I've used the Wheezy docs to download the firmware necessary and it apparently is supposed to run fine with this firmware, but nothing is working. There was mention to a GitHub repository of a fixed version of the driver in question, which didn't work either.
I'm was trying to choose between GNOME and KDE for version 8. However both the live DVD's fail to pick up the Wifi card on my system. I am also unable to use certain basic commands such as ifconfig on the live CD. I am completely new to Linux and Debian (of course). Pardon me for the hand holding. This will be my first install of a Linux system.
What steps I can take to ensure that the Wifi card and the network card will be supported - hardware compatibility test maybe? Is there a way to try before installing? This will be a dualboot with Windows 8.1
Wifi card: Ralink RT3290 802.11bgn Wi-Fi Adapter

I'm a brand new user of Debian, and I just bought a (too much?) new laptop, the HP 430 G2. It seems to work great for almost everything, except that I don't have any wifi available.
I tried so many different things (without any success) that it would be hard to resume. But for now, all I have is a new installation (to avoid parasite installations of weird things), and a kernel updated to 3.16. I don't know if it's useful though...
Some information from my system :
Code: Select allbonyhoax@bonybook:~$ sudo ifconfig
[sudo] password for bonyhoax:

The first element I notice is that I don't have the line with "Kernel driver in use...". Which seems to indicate that there's a problem with the kernel module (is that right?). But I don't know how to fix it...
The other thing that puzzles me with these last two commands is that according to this page, my wifi card is a Broadcom BCM43142. But it's not the result I get with the lspci command.
Anyway, I'm really lost, I don't know what to do, what to check, what to install. I don't want to go by random, testing all the different solutions I see on the web blindely. This is the reason why I ask it here.
I have an intel 7265 AC wireless card. When I try to download something my estimated download time is tripled almost every 5 mins.And when I play an online game from steam (cs:go or dota2) the ping goes to 250-300 ms which generally stays around 80ms. I'm using debian jessie. So far, I've tried turning of the power save mode of the card, changing ISP and router but none of them worked. I have a fairly good internet connection (I'm using it with my other machines without a problem) so I don't think the connection or router is the problem. Below you can find some information about system.

I am trying to get an engenius EUB 9801 going in Debian 6.0 Stable. I have searched this forum, and other linux forums but no luck. It is based on a Ralink rt3572sta chip, the 2.4/5ghz 300mbps wireless N chipset. I will post the link to the Ubuntu forum, where they have been able to get it working under 10.10.[URL]..the link to the linux chipset driver is:[URL]... It would be nice to have this natively supported under Debian, as I am going to use my server as a glorified wirelessN router...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Atheros Communications Inc. AR9565 Wireless Network Adapter [168c:0036] (rev 01)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basically the stable 7.8 distribution cannot handle this wifi card, so I read on forums that I should upgrade my operating system. So I did as I read on the forum:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian wheezy-backports main contrib non-free
apt-get update
apt-get -t wheezy-backports install firmware-atheros
apt-get -t wheezy-backports install linux-image-amd64
reboot
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After this the oprating system recognized the wifi card and loaded the "ath9k" driver. In the Grub the default operating system became :
Linux 3.16.0-0.bpo.4-686-pae
Because I want to restric the workers to access anything else except the designed inner network, I have uninstalled the Network Manager and set the network interfaces in the "/etc/network/interfaces" file as shown below:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

This works, when the operating system boots, it automatically connects to my hidden SSID wiofi network. I can ping other computers on the same IP subnet (10.139.252.xxx).
This computer should connect to an XP running under virtualbox, having the IP address of 10.40.138.153. But it does not. On another laptop, running Ubuntu 14.05, having the same network configuration, (10.139.252.102) connects to the same XP under virtualbox with no problem....
For Ubuntu nothing is required to be installed on virtualbox, no extension pack, no guest addition, nothing. When I want to connect to XP via rdp, it asks for username and password and after that only a blue or black blank screen and nothing else... Even on the XP I see no sign of any activity that somebody would like to connect.
Checking the network traffic (tcpdump, nast) I see that the two computers are communicating but after a while the communication stops. The rdp XP its in another IP subnet, but Ubuntu can connect without any problem, Debian not...
I've been using Ubuntu and Mint for a few years now, and I want to try Linux on my HP Stream7 Tablet.

I have a system using a Linksys WUSB54B usb wifi adapter that needs the rt2x00/rt2500 modules. Using the fresh install kernel, 2.6.29.6-smp, the modules are there and I get my interface up.
But, when I configure my own kernel, not an smp system, I cannot find the .config option in the menu for rt2x00 network adapter support and the modules are not in /lib/modules/vmlinuz-2.6.29.6-first directory tree after a "make modules_install".
I looked through the configuration menu, but could find no reference to the rt2x00 drivers.
I cant seam to find out how to get my card to work i cant find out how to install the driver or finding the wifi card on the system.

As a part of my final project,i am beginner and this is the first one that i have the opportunity to work under linux fedora,my task consist to develop with C a driver of wifi by using the SDIO Wifi card as an interface. This driver will be included in a digital receiver TV.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am running (K)Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 64bit on a Dell Latitude E6400, WiFi Card Intel 5100. Never had any problems with networking. Up to about 2 weeks ago. I do realize there have been quite a few posts with this network adaptor, but non really described the problem I have here.
What happens is that suddenly the WiFi LED on the computer stops blinking, the WiFi connection gets disrupted, and the device is not recognized anymore when checking ifconfig. Only cold restarting the machine helps then... it will work for a while (between 1 and 20 minutes) and then crash again.
On Windows 7 the card works perfectly fine. With Ubuntu 11.04 in Live CD mode I have the same effects (connection crashes after a while). Also tried booting an older kernel, no success.

I found a solution to my card reader problem in a another fedora post but when I type the code in terminal I get:
all config files need.conf /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
How to write this code so I wont get this error and I can load these modules and also how to edit the modprobe.conf.
The code is below, using fedora 13.
You must load these two modules to work with card reader.
First : Remove the card from the Reader!
AS superuser type in console :
1. /sbin/modprobe tifm_core <enter>
2. /sbin/modprobe tifm_sd <enter>
If you want to automate these modules loading do the following :
edit the /etc/modprobe.conf file
add these :
alias mmc_core tifm_core
alias mmc_card tifm_sd
I've got a wireless card and would like to make a driver module for it from the ralink tarball. Here's the details:
1. The Asus PCI-G31 uses the RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g chipset.
Code:
lspci
<some output omitted>
04:03.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI
2. I am using the latest driver download from www.ralinktech.com which is
2009_0123_RT61_Linux_STA_v1.1.2.3.tar.bz2
3. I followed the documentation and I think it makes a script. Here's part of the README from the tarball.
Code:
Build Instructions:
1> $tar -xvzf RT61_Linux_STA_Drv_x.x.x.x.tar.gz

how, and if, I enable 3Dnow, and other CPU related features?
I'm not having any problems or anything to that effect. I am only curious. Is this something that's automatically done? Is this something I must do during compile and install of applications?

flags: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr syscall mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow
If this is something I must enable manually per application, then for example, if I wanted it enabled for FlightGear, how would I go about doing that?
I just blindly install 'java' in GNU/Linux Debian SID -- so I could use it as a plugin for iceweasel -- Unfortunately, things didn't work as expected. I was used to Debian's APT to take care of things for me as it had done for more years than I could remember. (Being a desktop user/programmer and a beginner system network admin). I want a clean install of java plugin for iceweasel. So I want to remove completely all java related packages --
How do I know which is which and if they are safe to remove without affecting any other part of the system? Now, to install -- what do I need to install in order for iceweasel to have the Java plugin and let java work as it should? I prefer from the Debian package. But if it doesn't work, I'll accept JRE from the java site and install them myself.
VirtualBox is awesome tool for experiment and learning Linux.On the Linux guest OS, I installed standard system without Xorg.i expected it remove all the packages that come along with gnome-terminal previously.Only gnome-terminal was removed, 750kB free space. Now the system have 149MB packages as waste data IMHO.It doesn't look right to me.

I had the same problem in previous builds where I chose Twofish instead of AES, and I was hoping that the timeouts would be fixed by switching to AES as my CPU has the AES instruction set. Obviously that didn't make a damn bit of difference.
What am I doing wrong, or what should I change in my setup? The encryption is a requirement. Could the problem be caused by something as stupid as using a RANDOM KEY instead of a PASSPHRASE on /tmp and swap?
