Recently (I can't put an exact date on it but its been within the last few weeks) on boot I've had to wait two or three minutes for my system to bring up my network interface, in a way its never done before...The output of /var/log/boot.log is as follows:
Code:

My new Squeeze machine detects all of my hardware including the LAN and WLAN cards, but only brings up the LAN card. There isn't even an entry for it in /etc/network/interfaces for me to modify. I tried adding the info manually but then the entire network wouldn't start. I had it configured as a static IP and I know the commands were correct due to them working on the LAN card. I believe that the name "wlan0" was causing the problem, but how else can I bring it up at boot?

I found a new version of the e2fsprogs at the OBS package claiming to fix this problem. But installing this new version did not solve my problem.
Here some information about the affected system:
Operating System:openSUSE 11.2 (i586)
Installed e2fsprogs:e2fsprogs-1.41.11-4.1.i586
Number of LVs:35 (all ext3)
I can only boot if I comment out some of the filesystems in my /etc/fstab. It seems that the number of filesystems must be less or equal 32.
I have a weird issue that I have not seen on any forum. My jaunty on DELL studio laptop seems connected to net, but I can not access any network service (ssh, firefox etc.). But when I connect a cable the cable lights blink as it should be and in wireless connection my wifi light blinks.
It was working 2 days ago without problem, and I have not done big changes recently.I removed and reinstalled network-manager and network-manager-gnome. Nothing changed. I see a message in each restart as follows (when Openafs is starting). I can reproduce it with "/etc/init.d/openafs-client restart"

There is no wlan0 interface when trying to run FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick N 2.4 on OpenSuSE 11.2, though it works fine on Fedora 11 and Mandriva Spring 2009.1. All 64bit. Contrary to Fedora and Mandriva, there is no need to compile the compat-wireless module ar9170usb for OpenSuSE 11.2 because the kernel is very recent and includes this driver. Kernel: 2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop The /var/log/messages gives this after I put the stick in the PC. At first it is seen as a mass storage device:

I have a series of four config scripts which all run in sequence of each other.first occurs during the whole kcikstart thing.Kickstart then tells rc.local to run step2, which then tells rc.local to run step 3. No steps are repeated, after they are run they delete themselves from rc.local.After each step, it reboots.Step 3 is responsible for creating the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 file, and populating it. It greps ifconfig -a for the mac address of USB0.
#! /bin/bash
# Check to see if the usb nic takes eth2, if it does, move it to eth1[code]............
I have just tried to upgrade my Toshiba Laptop (Satelite X205-S9800) from Fedora 10, which was working correctly, to Fedora 12. During the first boot Fedora 12 does not recognise my Wireless LAN Card and stops (Freezes) in that part of the first boot sequence. I have tried switching the LAN OFF in the Bios and also switching it off(There is an On/Off switch on the Wirless LAN card. Neither of those actions fixed the problem.

The server has been reconfigured exactly as it was and has been verified and compared against the other working servers.It will not enslave the interfaces on boot. You can manually enslave and then bring up the network, so that much of the configuration is verified. It simply refuses to enslave... which fails everything that comes after thatHere is a snippet of the message log on the machine that does not enslave on boot

I'm having an issue with Ubuntu 10.04 server, where it is not bringing up a console on the local machine.
The only display on the local screen (and in /var/log/boot.log) is:
Code:
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.17.2
/dev/sda1: clean, 100725/2342912 files, 781590/9357824 blocks
init: ureadahead-other main process (595) terminated with status 4
Hitting <alt>-<f[anything]> just brings up a blank screen with a single flashing cursor, and no login prompt.
The ureadahead message sounds like the classic Windows error: "The operation could not be completed because of the following error: The operation completed successfully." So ureadahead isn't the problem.
Also... ssh works, but other services (apache, mysql, smbd, nfs-kernel-server, etc) need to be started manually.
Instead of using sudo to start the listener, first use su - oracle, then start the listener.
su - oracle
password: oracle
lsnrctl start LISTENER
lsnrctl status
I was then able to bring up the Oracle home page a few minutes later with: [URL]
Using tips provided in the "Sticky" posts, I have identified my wireless device -- BCM4322 -- and installed the necessary firmware and drivers. The device appears in Network Manager until system reboot, at which time the "ssd" driver module is loaded instead. After each boot I must execute the following commands to remove ssd and load the Broadcom driver:
rmmod ssb
modprobe lib80211
modprobe wl
The Broadcom README file provides directions to load the correct module automatically, but the commands appear to be incompatible with openSUSE 11.4. I'm happy to provide additional detail if needed
I'd like to know if it's possible to bring pages from a particular process into main memory, or to set parameters for a given process, or class of process so that it will not be swapped out.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an old computer with 128 megs of memory and one hard drive of 120 gigs. I have gone back and forth between installing Ubuntu and Puppy. Right now, despite advice against it because of the limited memory, I am thinking of sticking with Ubuntu. Puppy has some problems but that is not what I want to address right now. What I want to ask about in this discussion thread is how to get Ubuntu onto the Internet.
I think I get it, but I want to be sure. There is a menu option called "Network Connections" and it opens a window that has several tabs. Since I have a wired connection, I click on the "Wired" tab where it shows my connection in a list box. When I click on Edit it opens another window that displays a MAC address and there is an "Apply" button. When I click on this, there is an Authenticate window that opens up and it prompts me for a password. Is this password that it is asking for the same thing as the password that my router uses?
I just got my electricity bill for July & August and noticed a dramatic increase in my consumption. Basically, the amount of electricity has almost doubled (from 433 to 748kWh) and the increase happens mainly between 5pm and 11pm, as well as during weekends... I did not have to search for too long before I pointed out the issue... My new home server. It is configured to auto WOL at 5PM and auto shutdown (Cron) at 11PM. It also runs 24h/day on weekends...
Here's the server's config:
Hardware:
MSI Platinum K9N mobo
AMD Athlon64 CPU
1GB DDR2 Ram (2X 512MB)

Everything else is only "run-on-demand" or scripts... I am searching for suggestions on how to minimize the power requirements. The video card is going to be replaced soon, by a standard PCI 4MB videocard. Next I will get rid of the 80GB & 750GB HDD's to be replaced by a 1.5TB HDD...
I have recently started using this laptop as a host for tinkering with vmware. I have wicd installed on it, which normally brings up wlan0 and connects to the nearest configured wireless lan automatically.
Vmware has installed another, virtual, NIC on the host, called vmnet8. I configured it in /rc.d/rc.inet1.conf with a static IP.
Now when I boot up the laptop vmnet8 starts up and running and correctly configured, but wlan0 doesn't. I have the wicd icon in my systray but it doesn't find a network, even when i click on it and refresh etc. I have to open a terminal and "ifconfig wlan0 up" in order to get the NIC up. Then wicd works fine.
Networking configuration in Slackware looks like a bit of a nightmare frankly (why i usually use wicd!) so I thought i'd ask you chaps before messing about too much.
I have a client's linux server where someone added a script which sends spam mails from the server's local loopback address (127.0.0.1) all my seniors worked on it and couldn't trace the script on the server this issue was going for a week, now I have an idea to bring down the loopback interface of that particular server(ya, that was not a permanent solution but just had an idea), but my support manager told that it will bring the whole server down(so far as i have learn't loopback address is used only for testing the NIC card's functionality), is that really bring the server down.?. How ever i tried this using a test machine all the connections works fine even after i bring down the loopback interface. As my client's server is a production server i can't test it there without clear knowledge, can any one help me out whether will it bring down the server or will it cause any side effects on it(i know that you guys are experts so i am asking it here)?

I am newbie to linux, I am dealing with Fedora core 13. I have already succeedded in building an ad hoc network and a WLAN network. My next step is to get some networking statistics such delay, throughput, etc. So, I need traffic to flow through the network for both multimedia traffic and bulk data traffic. How to send files between nodes on the network (I found commands ftp, rcp but do not know whether they are the correct choice for this). ID their any application to perform this?
Also, I want to perform some video streaming between two nodes to study the behavior of real time data transfer. Is thier any application to perform this?
Okay I posted about this a while ago, and i got my wired network to work, but now i need my wireless card driver to work. I have been doing research and I found something called ndiswrapper which drivers from windows working in linux. I typed in lspci in the terminal and it gave me my specs of my wireless card which is a:
-Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03)
-Some people said there is no original driver for this card, so you need to use ndiswrapper, I was wondering does anybody know what this is, how do i use this, and help me out to get my wireless card going. If you give me instructions, please be really specific as I am really new and still getting the hang of commands.

I'm running Slackware 13 with a custom kernel based off of 2.6.32.3. I tend to leave my system on 24/7, as well as my web browser. Originally it was Firefox and now it is Google's Chrome. Usually about a day of leaving the web browser open my HD activity spikes so high that I can barely do anything on the system until I kill the web browser. This has been happening with both Firefox AND Chrome! As soon as the browser processes are killed, the system returns back to normal.
