I have a dell PC running on Fedora 12, and I would like to install this SCSI controller card from adaptec:[URL]I see that the driver for Linux is available only as source code. Can somebody please indicate me how to proceed? I am not advanced enough in Linux to know what to do with it myself...I downloaded the most recent (v2.0.26) Source Code for Linux Kernel v2.6 on all platforms.Here are the contents of the tarball (if it helps in any way):
i am writing block deriver for usb device in linux i want to read and write data to/from usb device i already registered usb device with my driver and opened the handle for the usb device now i need to send scsi command to usb device to make it work but i dont have knowledge about scsi commands and how and where to use them now i need to know which scsi command i need to pass to the usb device and how can i pass that command to usb device also i need some information like how to register host controller with my usb driver
if anyone knows about this or where can find the tutorials / documentation/ framework for the same.
i m facing same error in most of the HCL servers. the problem is that it throws error while booting and sometimes not throws error. the error is :-
Feb 13 13:17:25 fe13s kernel: Adapter 0: Bus A: The SCSI controller was reset due to SCSI BUS noise or an invalid signal. Check cables, termination, termpower, LVDS operation, etc.
Feb 13 13:17:30 fe13s kernel: Adapter 0: Bus B: The SCSI controller successfully recovered from a SCSI BUS issue. The issue may still be present on the BUS. Check cables, termination, termpower, LVDS operation, etc

while installing the linux-2.6.31 source code in fedora 12 I got an error: [root@pratyush linux-2.6.31]# make install sh /home/parag/rpmbuild/SOURCES/linux-2.6.31/arch/x86/boot/install.sh 2.6.31 arch/x86/boot/bzImage System.map "/boot" /sbin/new-kernel-pkg: line 277: /sbin/mkinitrd: No such file or directory mkinitrd failed
For one of my class projects, we have to analyze a usb keyboard driver source code and be able to understand it and present it to the class. Me and a few other people are working together by breaking up the code into sections so each person can analyze a section of code.Now I've ran into a section of this code that I am a little confused about. It seems fairly simple but I just wanted to double check since I wasn't able to find a solid answer.
I intend to attach WLAN PCMCIA card to my embedded system to connect to a wireless network. However, my embedded system uses a strangs OS that not supports the card driver. I think that I can investigate on how Ubuntu control the card to find out the way to control it in my system. The WLAN PCMCIA card that I can buy is:TP-Link TL-WN510G,Linksys WPC54GSCan any one tell me, how can I have the source code of WLAN PCMCIA driver and how can I find out the way Ubuntu control this card?
I am following these instructions to install gnu backgammon. However I am doing this for the first time and I don't know how to get their source code from their site (here). Do I download everything?
I was wondering if there are any tools that automate the process of installing from source for example tar.gz or tar.bz2. I have used kludge installer but I am looking for something that doesn't make me install any dependencies for example I want a bash shell script it just runs the commands you normally do but faster.
I am having a problem installing a program, AudioTester v1.6 and tests FLACs for errors. [URL]. The .zip file has a windows executable '.exe' and the source code. The code was written for Windows. The source code is written in C++ (.cpp) with C header (.h) files, xml (.vcproj) and one '.exe.manifest'(?) file. I tried the usual commands for compiling (./configure, autogen, make) the source code but no luck. Can I compile this code for Ubuntu/linux? Is there anything I can do with the code? And If so what do I need to do.
I just tried installing mysql on my vps from source code. after untaring the source code. when i tried to configure the ./configure script. iwas not able to find it. it is not there.

Does Debian have any particular tools or nuances for installing new hardware? I saw some stuff on Ubuntu which is related... but you know.
The dmesg file shows that it's being recognized, but I don't think it's actually being used (i.e. there is no driver installed). This is what's in the dmesg file:
Unless someone has already compiled a driver for Debian Lenny for this hardware, I'm going to have to compile my own I guess. The driver package seems to come with something called mptlinux-4.00.43.00-src.tar.gz which I'm guessing can be compiled for any Linux, but looking at the instructions, it's pretty much beyond me how to get started. It talks about using kernel source to build a module and such and such.
I have a Dell PE 600 box with 2 Adaptec 2110s U160 Single Channel RAID controller supported 6 HDDs.I am trying to install Ubuntu from a mini ISO - tried server / desktop / alternate as well. And also different Ubuntu versions.The mini installer runs upto setting the time zone (after configuring for DHCP et.al.) and then on the screen 'Detecting Disks and Other Hardware' hangs up.Now I am assuming its because of the fact that I have 2 of the above controllers - as I have another similar box with only 1 of the controllers and it installs/boots fine with no problems.Look forward to you suggestions/help and if there is any other info I can provide. I plan to set up Ubuntu 10.10 server on it. Btw I don't think its a Linux problem as SUSE 11.3 installs fine on the box.

i have a linux machine installed with RedHat 4.7 x64 bit. toady our machine just hanged and the only thing we can do was to do an hard reboot.i saw that when she hanges all her disk looks offline. in /var/log/messages i only saw this error message:
we have 6 disks in RAID 5 in this machine- SAS disks. i've search in the net and looks like the emulex driver told the SCSI to do a reset for some reason. how can i check this issue? machine is online now and everything looks ok but i'm afraid i have a problem perhaps with my disks and this is a production machine so it cant happened again.
I have been a newbie to Fedora, Now i think its the time to explore fedora and learn the "behind the scenes" process.. I want to know how to view the source code of kernel,an application.
Where I can get a disc for the Fedora 11 source code? I really like this release of fedora and want to keep it for the future. Also, what's the difference between SRPM and RPMs? What does an SRPM do when you install it and what is it's purpose?
I have some C source code listings that are not documented or even commented from which I would like to run a program to create a flowchart.I'm not looking for the likes of dia or such which require the user to do the creation please. I've read the posts on this and other forums but have found only user created charts, not from source. From several web searches I know winblows has such programs but I don't want windows on this machine!
Looking for a guide or thread that explains how to install from source code.What programs that I need to install like php or others and the steps to compile make and install the code.
I was a die hard Ubuntu user for the last 2 years and decided to use something more advanced or different. My question (after searching the crap out of Google) is how can I view the source code of Fedora? I have found many sites explaining this but it is not written in terms that are easy for me to understand. I haven't been programming for years and using advanced features in Linux so most of these sites are not explaining out and most are explaining how to build and add on to the kernel.
i am already a little bit familiar with linux and now i want to know better the linux OS. i have downloaded the source code of the krnel from the kernel.org and i dont understand the linux source trees organization, so can somebody do me a favor and give me a link to some internet page (or at least a book) that explains that?? i have searched in the internet with the tag:::linux source trees organization and i have not found nothing interesting
I am a little optimistic now after my problem of wifi was solved by stoat that presisted for about a year, now i am trying to install my vpn client. he asks me to write the path of kernel source code directory : and i answer by:/lib/modules/2.6.26.8-57.fc8/build/
But he answers no such directory or file and i dont know why
The build is covered by a red box when displayed by a terminal so can any body tells me where i can find my kernel source directory or i should install them, how
