Hardware :: Enabling Second PCI Network Card On Debian
Oct 13, 2010
I have a dell optiplex configured with an extra PCI network card, because I plan to set it up as a gateway / LTSP server, but I have troubles getting the second network card to work. It is recognized during installation (where I can choose the primary network interface) and doing a
Code:
lshw -class network
After installation shows both network cards, with network 0 being labeled Disabled. I have tried configuring the other network interface in the /etc/network/interfaces file, but it has failed to work. I have also briefly looked at udev rules, but it seems that it renames the interfaces fine during bootup, as
Code:
dmesg | grep "udev"
Shows the following
Code:
[1.138307] udev: starting version 160
[6.003002] udev: starting version 160
[7.237092] udev: renamed network interface eth1 to ethlokal
[7.253775] udev: renamed network interface eth0 to eth1
I also noticed a briefly shown "address collision" error of some sort during boot, but it never shown for long enough for me to read it through. The network card that is enabled is an Intel 825662EZ 10/100 ethernet controller, and the one that is disabled is a Realtek RTL-8139/8139C+.

I have a netbook and the wireless card on it works fine. Whenever I wake it up after suspending for couple of hours, it seems like the wireless card is not awaking or the drivers are not working properly because I do not see any wireless networks after waking it up(for example in Wicd). If I do fresh restart, the wireless and wireless networks come back at the same place. So I am wondering if it is possible to restart the wireless card or the driver without restarting my netbook

For those who want use in VMware guest 3D games or any, using intel graphics... (who cant enable it ) You must enable S3TC texture compression even if your card can't enable it!The software you must use is DRICONF... You can Download it at the package manager...

I just installed the Debian testing release(with LXDE) from this week. Everything works great except the network card. I know the network card works because Windows and the Parted Magic Live cd recognize it. Also "lspci" seems to list the card, but when I fire "ifconfig -a" it is not listed there.

when I tried to configure network I came across a problem that the enable button on top of network manager GUI is disabled. So alternatively I enabled it with ifconfig command. I also configured DNS servers. But the problem is whenever I reboot my machine. I have to reactivate the network from terminal and give the DNS servers again, because DNS settings are not saved.

I'm facing some problems with FC11 in my PPC G4. I tried installing and everything went well until it reaches a stage where I'm being prompted to select my network interface.
The options are: wlan and eth0
But no matter which one I choose I still get this error "An error occurred trying to bring up the wlan0 (or eth0) network interface". And if I click cancel, the installation aborts. how can I can FC installed??

In short, attached a terminal screenshot of me trying to install hplip. Why hplip-3.9.10.run doesn't recognize the fact that gcc has already been installed? In detail: I have HP PSC 1210 connected to a Windoze XP machine. I want to enable network printing, but the only printer showing up standard in the F12 drivers is the HP PSC 1200. When I use that one, I reach the printer, and the Windoze printer queue, but no matter how long I wait, nothing ever comes out of the printer. It'll start moving like "I'm about to print!" but then does nothing. So through the hp-opensource website I determined which driver I want, and get a long way into installing the file. It hangs up on the attached screenshot.

I'm new to Debian, and new to Linux at all (well, I have used Linux sometimes in the past; Red Hat 7.1, Knoppix 3.6, Ubuntu, and some other distros but by no meaning I could call myself a real, full-time Linux user). But that's what I want to change. After some research I've decided on Debian. At first I wanted to download a stable build (5.0.7) but I've seen 6.0 RC1 was released just recently and I've changed my decision to get this version instead. Anyway, I'm currently downloading the DVD (slow connection, 2Mb/s only) and I've spotted this page in the meantime.
Thing that got my attention is "Potential installation problems with RTL8169-based network cards". I've checked my motherboard (Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3) and I have Realtek 8111C on it. As far as I understand, it's not RTL8169-based but any real problems with my Realtek 8111C card, I don't want to install an OS from which I couldn't browse web. I know I had big issues with it while installing Mac OS X Snow Leopard but that's what I could expect when installing OS on unsupported hardware. So any way to install Debian 6.0 RC1 on a computer with Realtek 8111C network card?

Here ASUSTeK Computer Inc. - Networks - ASUS PCE-N13
you may download the driver and install it yourself; once you've succeeded, I am a one-time Linux convert and quitter that gave up on Linux a long time ago, because frankly it is too complicated and I'm just a user who needs to get things done today, not in the few weeks time it takes to figure these things out. Since Debian Squeeze got released I wanna test it out, but my PCI card, ASUS PCE-N13 needs to be set up.
Driver install too technically advanced.
The accompanying instructions are far from self-evident:
================================================== =====================
Build Instructions:
====================
1> $tar -xvzf RT2860_Linux_STA_x.x.x.x.tgz

I'm running Linux Mint 9 with Gnome.
I don't want my wireless network card to be automatically enabled in Network Manager when I start my computer. I keep setting it to disabled in Network Manager but when I reboot Network Manager has re-enabled it again.
Is there some way of starting with wireless disabled until I tell Network Manager to enable it?

Yesterday I installed a RaLink RT2800 802.11n PCI on my squeeze system. Now I have a connection to Internet but I can not connect other systems in my home network. An ssh-try to a system in my home network results in: ssh: connect to host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port 22: No route to host If I use my eth0, I do not have connection to Internet, but I can connect other systems in my home network.

I am trying to install Debian Lenny via Hyper-V. I get to the point where it asks for the network card. For some reason it can not find my network card. I have a RealTek (RTL8112L PCIe Gigabit LAN controller featuring AI NET 2 built on motherboard).
For some reason it doesn't see it. My issue is if I continue without the network how am I getting the drivers? Unfortunately Hyper-V doesn't support USB. I guess I can try to burn to CD but not looking to waste a cd for 480k and not sure that will work as I only see a auto.sh and a couple other files under scr directory. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. This is a fairly new Motherboard/NIC so I do not understand why it isn't recognized. I know it cant have everything but Realtek is a fairly common nic.

The ethernet adapter on my Asrock H97M ITx/AC motherboard isn't recognized during install. It's a Qualcomm Atheros AR8171 and none of the available options like alx or e1000e are working.
I originally tried to install openmediavault [URL] .... - which is based on debian - from an USB Stick and only came up tothe point where it tries to recognize the network card. It couldn't and promted me to choose one manually. So I checked the specs of my motherboard (a shiny new Asrock H97M ITx/AC with a Qualcomm Atheros AR8171) and after a short search I narrowed it down to alx or e1000e. Both of which only triggered a short flash of the interface and nothing more. I guess that's linux' way of sticking its tongue out at me.
For the last 2 days I therefore searched high and low and came across many possible solutions that either didn't work or included too much linux lingo that I couldn't understand it.
One solutions was to install a vanilla debian and then somehow install OMV over it, but debian itself couldn't recognize the network card either. So now I have a pretty minimal debian (CD1 install only) running but how to make it recognize and use the onboard network device.
Just out of curiosity, I plugged in an old hard drive with Win7 that hasn't been updated for at least 10 months. It only had a driver for AR8131 and warned me of using that, but it worked totally fine. Debian however doesn't even try to use an old driver but just flashes its interface at me.
Is there a way to make it work or is this board just not supported by debian and I have to resort to some other distro or a windows installation?

This may be more suited for the networking forums, but I figured Community Cafe would be well rounded enough for someone to tell me if this is even possible (with minimal configuration that is).There are a few places I travel where I only have a wired connection to the Internet (no wifi), but when this happens is there a simple way to create an adhoc network so wireless devices can route through my computer and to the network? Reason I'm asking is I'm thinking of getting an iPad or iPod Touch which have wireless connections, but in the cases where my laptop is using a wired ethernet connection and the wireless card isn't used, I'd like to create an adhoc wireless network that'll let such wireless devices work.

My card Wifi network doesn't turn on, even at loading configuration of the system is failed. I have to wait a long time until the system itself to load.
And when I write ifconfig or iwconfig is displayed in the console interface wireless card.
And when I come in the panel on the network card, it immediately pops up a window that you can not load the network card modules.
I don't know what could have happened, I do not recall that I recently messed with the system.
Here are the pictures: [URL]....
And here I join dmesg.log file, at the end of a failed: [URL] ....

I'm running Debian + LXDE in a VirtualBox. Here are the details:
Code: Select all➜ ~ hostnamectl
Static hostname: debian64
Icon name: computer-vm
Chassis: vm
Machine ID: #############################
Boot ID: ###########################
Virtualization: kvm
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux stretch/sid
Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64
Architecture: x86-64
I really would like to jump into my desktop environment when I start my machine without the need to enter my user name and password. Apparently this is very easy to do. I added the following lines to my /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
Code: Select allpam-service=lightdm
pam-autologin-service=lightdm-autologin
autologin-user=username
autologin-user-timeout=0
session-wrapper=/etc/lightdm/Xsession
And also added my user to the autologin group
Code: Select allgroupadd -r autologin
gpasswd -a username autologin
As you can imagine, it didn't work. Otherwise I wouldn't be here... I also tried to install Slim and enable autologin adding the following line to the /etc/slim.conf
Code: Select allauto_login = yes
That didn't work either!
Am I missing anything? Enabling autologin in LXDE?

I have encountered a bug in the live-build in Debian Live. The persistence does not work it is because of the bug #767195. I cannot recreate another live img file because of bandwidth problem, is there any way to repack the initrd and enable the cryptsetup?

How to enable persistent logging with systemd? I find it really weird that all this machinery that is systemd doesn't store persistent logs, what if I'm trying to retrieve some information regarding previous boots?
For instance: I have random suspend issues, after rebooting the computer there's no trace left in the logs of what happened, and furthermore (at least in Jessie) I can no longer see a pm-suspend log.
So, at first it sounds like all you have to do is edit journald.conf setting #Storage=auto to "persistent" and create the /var/log/journal directory, but then reading here /usr/share/doc/systemd/README.Debian
Code: Select allEnabling persistent logging in journald
=======================================
To enable persistent logging, create /var/log/journal and set up proper permissions:
install -d -g systemd-journal /var/log/journal
setfacl -R -nm g:adm:rx,d:g:adm:rx /var/log/journal
and here [URL] ....
There are two main reasons why I decided to not enable persistent logging just yet ....
We did get corrupt journal files in the past where the journal then no longer worked at all [1]. With volatile you can just reboot and have a clean state again. Admittedly, the journal has seen a lot of improvements in the mean time and hopefully is more robust, so this point is no longer true.
We still install rsyslog by default. That means we get store them twice. This is something we don't want to do atm.

I have a Dell Latitude D400 laptop running Wheezy (I can't upgrade to Jesse at the moment) and I want to try out the Pointing Stick on my keyboard. If you Google "Pointing Stick" you can find images of it. It's located in the middle of the "G", "H", and "B" keys. Now it doesn't do squat so I'd like to enable the Pointing Stick. How exactly would I do that?
I'm not looking to use it full time, I just want to play around with it.

I have a problem with the unix firewall (gufw). I'm using Linux Mint Debian Edition. The problem appears when I double click on the icon to bring it up for configuring. Everything is grayed out so I click on the "unlock" button. Normally, this is when gufw comes alive with color. But all I get now is a note on the bottom of the gray screen that says "Wrong Identification". Uninstalling and reinstalling UFW and GUFW didn't fix the problem. I would like to have my firewall working for me.

I have some init scripts that launch some daemons that I wrote. I want Linux to generate a coredump anytime something crashes. I activated coredumps in /etc/security/limits.conf by adding the next line:
* hard core 100000 After rebooting, I run ulimit -a and I can see that coredumps are not activated: > root@computer:~# ulimit -a > core file size (blocks, -c) 0 First, I checked if there is any file script on my system that deactivates coredumps (greping ulimit -c 0 ), but I didn't find anything so far.
Then, I created a bogus c program..to double check if it's working, and I can confirm that it's not. The program is this

I've one lenovo 3000 g430 4152 laptop on which i have windows but previously installed debian 5.03 and for enabling the wireless i've to download broadcom b43legacy and install it by compiling because the backports kernel doesn't work with lenovo and after installing debian accidently switched of the wireless by the slide button on laptop
but on next boot i was not able to enable the wireless either by the slide button or fn+f5 which is the key for enabling it the wireless then on some forum i got advise that i can only re-enable by installing windows because lenovo drivers are available for only windows for this model... my question is that is there any solution for it in debian and also there is one more problem that i've to press fn+f8 twice on each boot for enabling the touchpad...
