Fedora Hardware :: Does The Rt2870 Driver Support 5Ghz Channels
Jan 26, 2010
I am using a Sparklan WUBR-505N abgn USB dual band stick for the wireless connection on one of my Fedora 12 laptops. I have an Apple Airport Extreme BaseStation that can advertise
a 5GHz connection ie it broadcasts two sids... The network manger only see the 'regular' sid and the usb stick only connects in the 2.4GHZ frequencies. Does the rt2870 driver support the 5GHz frequencies? If so how can I force a 5GHz connection?

I installed the Linksys WMP600N dual band card on my OpenSuSE 11.2 box using the SuSE supplied rt2860 driver. With the 2.4GHz channels this works out of the box. However, I am unable to access the 5GHz channels. iwlist says:
Leatherstocking:/home/bergue # iwlist wlan0 channel
wlan0 13 channels in total; available frequencies :
Channel 01 : 2.412 GHz
Channel 02 : 2.417 GHz
Channel 03 : 2.422 GHz
Channel 04 : 2.427 GHz
Channel 05 : 2.432 GHz
Channel 06 : 2.437 GHz
Channel 07 : 2.442 GHz
Channel 08 : 2.447 GHz
Channel 09 : 2.452 GHz
Channel 10 : 2.457 GHz
Channel 11 : 2.462 GHz
Channel 12 : 2.467 GHz
Channel 13 : 2.472 GHz
Current Frequency:2.432 GHz (Channel 5)
Setting a 5GH channel with iwconfig doesn't work. iwpriv doesn't work either:
iwpriv wlan0 set WirelessMode=6
wlan0 no private ioctls.
Changing any settings in /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/RT2860STA.dat doesn't seem to have any effect at all. The driver supplied by SuSE is of version 1.8. On the Ralink website a newer driver of version 2.3 is available; but so far I didn't manage to install it because I am not a C expert. However, the 5GHz channels should be accessible by the older 1.8 version driver. Somehow I suspect that in the SuSE distribution some dynamic parameters are hardcoded and therefore the whole thing fails.

I am very new to Ubuntu and if I could get internet I'm sure I would love it as it appears very speedy! I don't want to resort to reloading Windows just because of this!I've managed to install the RT2870.inf driver for my Belkin wireless adaptor but couldn't install the sys file. Hence my adaptor still won't work - well I think this is why but hoping someone can enlighten me step by step.

I'm trying to install the rt2870 driver on my server running Ubuntu Server 8.04. I've installed build-essential, checkinstall, cvs, subversion, git-core, mercurial... After uncompressing the tarball, doing a "sudo make" gives me this output:

I've installed RPMforge and Smart Package Manager.
I had to create my own Centos 5.5 channels to sync yum repos and smart channels.
Here's the Centos 5.5 channel file for Smart:
Just shut Smart PM down, copy this file into /etc/smart/channels, and restart smart.
Smart should then detect the new channels (repos) for Centos 5.5
Update your channels in Smart, and you should then have yum repos and smart channels both in sync, looking at the same set of packages.
Copy this to CentOS-Base.channel, and add it to the /etc/smart/channels directory.
# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and

I'm trying to find out when QME2572 (Qlogic) card became support by the kernel. We have a RHEL 5.1 system that is moving to new hardware, however the kernel at this release doesn't support the new hardware, due to the Qlogic card change. I tired the Redhat KB and Bugzilla. Is there a Kernel change list etc I can search. Never really played around with the kernel too much so I'm just after some pointers for looking up this information. Offically its not supported until Redhat 5.3, I'm trying trying to research kernel info so I can tell the customer they have to upgrade.

I apologize if this is a duplicate post but I was unable to find anything that addressed my question. Currently I've installed the nvidia developer driver (beta) found here:[URL]..
After installing the driver everything works correctly. Rebooting the system results in a hang prior to starting X. Opening a new console and running start X provides me with the following error:
Code:
[ 103.884]
X.Org X Server 1.8.2
Release Date: 2010-07-01
[ 103.885] X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
[ 103.885] Build Operating System: x86-10 2.6.32-44.el6.x86_64
[Code]..;.
At this point if I reinstall the driver and reissue startx, again the system starts up properly. Also I've noticed that after a reboot, my xorg.conf file is being overwrriten.

I am new to linux. I install fedora 10 in text mode in my system. Because some drivers didn't support. I don't no know how to install supporting drivers. My system config. are Intel 945 mother board, 512 DDR2 RAM, 80GB IDE hard disk, P4 3GHz processor. When i try to install in graphics mode after disk checking i.e while anaconda is loading my monitor automatically turned off. So I recognized that problem with some driver. So I installed in text mode. Please tell me where do i get drivers for my system and how to install in my system. I don't have Internet connection for automatic installation using yum which was i found from linux forum so kindly tell me manual installation.

I have installed the Fedora 14, and a Dlink usb wireless adapter (DWA-125) with rt2870 chipset, but this one isn't working with my OS.
I typed the lsusb command
Code:
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 07d1:3c0d D-Link System DWA-125 Wireless N 150 Adapter(rev.A1) [Ralink RT2870]
I downloaded the drivers from YUM, the rt2870 and also kmod-rt2870. I thing that this step is ok.
I typed the dmesg | grep 2870 command
Code:
[21421.956342] usbcore: registered new interface driver rt2870
When I open the /proc/modules file, it shows the line bellow
rt2870sta 542230 0 - Live 0xffffffffa02fc000

my wireless adapter(WUSB600N) doesn't run when I log in. The driver is loaded on start-up but the green light is not on the adapter. I have to physically disconnect the adapter and plug it back in to get it recognised and it works fine afterwards

I just installed the Fedora 12 live CD, but the driver for my EnGenius EUB 9801 (rt2870) USB WiFi adapter is not installed. I tried some of the suggestions found on this forum, but since I'm new at Linux I haven't yet been successful with installing the driver.
Does anyone know if the much larger DVD ISO already contains the driver built-in for the rt2870 for Fedora? If so I'm thinking it would be easier (for me) to just download the DVD ISO and re-install FC12 using that to get my WiFi USB adapter working.

since the release of the 2.6.32.14-127 kernel a couple of days ago I can't use my wireless adapter (rt2870 based) since there isn't a kmod-rt2870 package released for this kernel.Normaly I found that the kmod package was available the same day as the kernel. Does anyone know why there is such a delay this time? Or if there is a workaround

I have recently installed Fedora 10 onto my PC, dual booting with XP, and I am fairly new to linux. I have been trying to connect to my wireless network, but cannot even get Fedora to recognise my wireless adapter (Belkin N1 +MIMO). I have tried to follow a few tutorials that go through either the ndiswrapper method or by using native drivers. Because I don't have an internet connection on Fedora, I have to boot into XP to download the files for either ndiswrapper or the native drivers, rather than installing using the terminal.I downloaded the ndiswrapper RPM, and it failed because of an 'unexpected error', and when using the tarball, it could not find the makefile. The native drivers did not install because of unresolved dependencies.

I seem to be missing some step(s) for getting an interface to appear in the output of ifconfig and
iwconfig for a RT2870 wireless USB 802.11n adapter (made by Panda Wifi). Let me step you
through what's I've done thus far.
After plugging the device in, it's low-level identification is as follows (see bold):
root@xps720# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 046d:0b06 Logitech, Inc.
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 148f:3070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870 Wireless Adapter

I use Kaffeine Version 1.0-pre2 and xine 0.99.6 on Fedora 12 64-bit. If I try to watch HD-channels (such as Das Erste HD, ZDF HD, arte HD), there is no sound (or just a few seconds). I read some times, that setting the audio buffer to 750 and the video buffer to 1000 should solve the problem

There was quite a bit of threads about this card, and getting it to work mostly boils down to downloading Ralink's propitiatory driver. The card uses RT2870 chipset, and Ubuntu comes with two drivers that are supposed to support it, neither of which seems to work with WUSB600N. One of the drivers included with Ubuntu detects networks operating on 2.4GHz but fails to connect to them, but does not detect 5GHz networks at all.
I was wondering if anybody knows what is so special with this card that it doesn't work with drivers that are shipped with Ubuntu? The card works nicely with Ralink's driver, but it's a bit annoying to have to recompile it on every kernel update (would be much nicer if it worked with stock drivers).

I`m using Fedora 11. I just bought a Creative Audigy Soundblaster sound card. It is recognized by the system, but I can`t make it play sound on all channels in xmms or mplayer. The alsa test confirms that all channels are working - I can hear sound from all of them. I have read several posts in other forums about modifying my ./asoundrc, but they just don`t seem to work.

The AMD tool ATI Catalyst does not provide Linux support for the ATI HD 6850. Running the tool allows the monitor to display in 1080P. However, it results in a watermark stating the hardware isn't supported.
Is there an open source driver that will support this card?
Can the Windows driver be co-opted for Linux?
When will there be an open source driver to support video cards?

I have an AMD Radeon HD 6950 and I know that no driver will be released for a while that works (current one causes xorg to crash and creates a reboot loop). Until then I have a 1920x1080 monitor running at 1280x1024 bc there are no higher settings.Is there any way to increase the resolution until the driver support comes? I tried a method involving xandr but that didnt work.
