I updated to KDE 4.7 today with MUCH trouble muon hung at towards the end of the updrade at 100% so i had to force quit with " sudo ksysguard" it refused to boot into the desktop so i had to complete the upgrade from the terminal/safe mode when it finished i could not get my wireless to work my drivers is installed properly and i have tried toggling the wireless switch, much to my dismay but nothing seems to work. i can't scan for networks and the network-manager app just reports "WLAN Interface: Error: Invalid state"

I bought this wireless card because alot of people said it worked out of the box and it almost worked... Ubuntu recognizes it and the wireless module is activated I just can't seem to scan for networks or connect to them... So I am listing some outputs for you guys and hopefully there is an easy fix.

I realize that Ubuntu recognizes the card, but I'm not sure why it's not picking up any networks that are around and says "disconnected", even though I've made sure that the wireless network light is enabled on the netbook.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 server 64bit. I'm trying to get my ASUS PCE-N13 wireless PCI card working for searching and connecting to wireless networks.

I have configured a wireless pcmcia card using ndiswrapper. I'm sure that works, as with the command "iwlist wlan0 scan" gives me back
the list of detected wireless networks. At this point I was wondering: is there a way to detect the new interface (wlan0) with network manager? Even after enabling the wifi card the network manager gnome applet always finds only eth0.
so I've installed my two network drivers, Broadcom and Realtek. So now I'm trying to connect to the internet (wlan/wireless) but I am now stumped. What do I do now? How do I get to see available networks and stuff?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Lexmark interpret S405 all in one. I got it to work as a wireless printer with the downloads provided by Lexmark. I installed simple-scan (sane) to enable scanning. Simple scan works, since it sees another all in one printer in our house and is able to scan. In addition, simple-scan does work on the Lexmark when I hook it up with a USB cable. HOWEVER, for some reason simple-scan does not see my Lexmark, despite the fact that it is seen as a wireless printer. So, the following discrepancy is present
a) My Lexmark is recognized by my computer as a wireless printer
b) Simple-scan does work, since it recognizes and scans another all in one and it does work with my Lexmark when connected with a USB cable
c) Nevertheless Simple-scan does not recognize my Lexmark all in one wirelessly.
My question to this distinguished form is: How can I make simple-scan recognize my Lexmark wireleslsy?
I'm re-building a laptop my daughter left here. Replaced the hard drive and installed Ubuntu 10.10 rather than go back to M/S products.
Now that I have the installation completed, I find that I really love it. The one issue is the inability to connect to our household network.
When I check for wireless networks I see that "firmware not installed".
I have a MSI A6000 laptop (the laptop that won't accept 10.10 because of the nvidia card) so finally I opted to get Ubuntu 9.10. I successfully installed with a dual boot.
There are two problems though that I have ran into.
1. Ubuntu 9.10 is not picking up wireless networks.
2. The Ubuntu graphics (icons, taskbar and windows) are much to large. I am guessing this has to do with the Nvidia card (nvidia GeForce 8200m G).
I have an HP Netbook that has Linux MintI have absolutely no issues with awired connection, however my internal wireless will not search and find wireless networ in range. It appears I have one saved (my home network) and I can connect to that, however, if I take my laptop to school or work, it will not find any networks to connect to. On a side note, I have no icon on the taskbar indicating wireless, and I used to have one. I have no idea where it went or what happened. I can answer most questions you may have but im a relatively new linux user (but I have a coworker that "knows all" and could help answer a question that I cannot.

I had some problems so I erased .kde folder and reboot my computer. KDE 4.6 works fine and fast (in my opinion, faster than KDE 4.5) but I have problems with Amarok 2.4. When I try to scan my music collection Amarok don't find any song. I have a NTFS partition in my computer and I have all my music there. I mount the partition since fstab and in 6 months I didn't have any problem. I can use Clementine for exmple and scan all my songs perfectly, but not Amarok.

I am using 11.3 (64-bit gnome) and have a new Tenda w322p wireless n card, this works absolutely fine under windows, but I also bought it due to reviews saying it worked with linux. The card appears in network settings as RaLink WLAN controller and uses kernel module rt2800pci, I have also tried typing in the network ssid etc manually but it hangs on exiting network manager (will post what it says later, after writing this) I used drivers from here:Ralink corp., and used the rt3062 one(5th one down?)

I have also had the same problem of not picking up networks in Ubuntu, not sure if the drivers are 64-bit compatible or something.
I went out and purchased a Sabrent PCI wireless 802.11n card with the RT2860 chipset because it was on the ubunutu compatibility list and has linux driver available from the manufacturer. I was impressed that the card worked in wireless G mode out of the box, which is a great start....
However, I can't find any wireless N networks. Dual booting I can find/use my N network, but in ubuntu I can only find my G network. This is somewhat frustrating because I bought this card and a new (read: expensive) Linksys E3000 router specifically to run a nice new N network...
I have downloaded, made, and installed (reboot) the latest driver from the manufacturer, but it still won't find any N networks. I found a few posts by searching here and google that alluded to changing this line: "HT_OpMode=1" (from 0 to 1) in the config file RT2860STA.dat located in /etc/Wireless/RT2860STA/ and a reboot. It didn't work for me.
Frankly all this rebooting is starting to **** me off ... I have spent most of last night trying to setup my 180$ wireless network and its still no better than the freebie DDWRT54g based wifi it replaced. I am frustrated, perhaps someone wiser in the ways of ubuntu and wireless N can shed some light on the situation....
I forgot to mention I am on Karmic Kola, amd64 with the standard gnome.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have Lucent Technologies Orinoco Silver 11 Mbps PCMCIA wifi card. It worked perfectly in Fedora 10, but after updating to Fedora 11 it stopped finding any wireless networks. The updating were done with automatic updating utility. The card works perfectly in Windows, I tested it today.
My laptop is HP nx6110 if that matters.
Here is the situation:
When I plug-out the card, the Network Manager disables wireless networking as it should. When I plug-in the card, wireless networking is enabled, so the system seems to recognize the card in some way.
If I try to connect to "Hidden wireless network" (because there isn't any wireless networks listed in the Network Manager) system tries to connect for a couple of minutes, and then asks wireless settings again. Orinoco card's lights DOESN'T blink normally when connecting to the network (one light should blink rapidly and one should light continuously, but both are blinking rarely or doesn't blink at all).
In System->Administration->Network in tab Hardware (hope those names are correct, I use Finnish version of Fedora...) is:
It seems that the card is detected right.
Here is what I have done to get the problem solved: In System->Administration->Network I have tried to connect to the wireless network manually (disabling the Network Manager). I can't get the connection. It gives me random error messages, sometimes "Check the cable" or something like that, sometimes just timeouts IP determination.
I have tried to connect different wireless networks, no connection. All tested networks worked with another computer.
No matter if I reboot or service network restart or plug-out plug-in the card... the problem still appears.

I am trying to configure my android phone (rooted Eris running kaossfroyo 2.2) to be used as a midi controller. Which I am having enough trouble with as it is but it has raised an annoying issue that occurred a month ago when I used the phones tethering network with my laptop. After connecting the laptop to the phones network (either tether, or an Ad-hoc network created using the network manager) I am unable to switch to other networks. In other words when I'm done with the phone-laptop connection I cannot connect my laptop to my home network! When I click on the other network connection I can see that it is attempting to connect in the upper right corner of the desktop (the network icon) but it will not make the connection.
What happens is that the network indicator will make the little circle graphic as if it is trying to connect but it never will display the other circle as green indicating that it has connected. but when I disconnect from the home network that is not connecting I will get a message underneath that will say that ad-hoc network disconnected! If I am switching from the android tether it will say Android-Tether disconnected etc. Even though when I click on network manager it shows that I am attempting to connect to the home network (labeled LIBERTY in my case) upon disconnection it shows the ad-hoc or tether connection being disconnected.
I am absolutely baffled by this! The issue persists even after deleting the ad-hoc connection from the wireless settings tab!!! I would speculate that for some reason the laptop is attempting to connect to the previous ad-hoc connection despite me wanting it to connect to LIBERTY. I am very confused and hope someone can lead me in the right direction.
