Hardware :: Get Piece Of Hardware To Connect To Computer?
Feb 22, 2011
I am trying to get this piece of hardware to connect to my computer. I got it to recognize it through NDISWrapper, or at least it says that it is there, but when i use lspci i dont even see it on the list. It shows the internal wireless card, which is a broadcom pile of garbage, and thus the reason i have bought this card. There are two lights on the card, neither one lights up, so it isnt even registering that it is getting power as that is what one of the lights is. I honestly dont have the slightest idea where to go from here.
I'm having issues getting apache to respond to requests outside of my local LAN. If I goto my server [URL].. it says connecting... but never finishes and returns anything. I'm using Ubuntu Server 10.10.
a) The DNS is working fine. It's pointed to my cable modem's IP and ping responds fine.
b) The apache server is setup and is working locally. In fact, if I use w3m and goto [URL]..I reach the test page perfectly. I can't figure out where the missing piece is to close this gap. Here are some config files to illustrate my setup:
Just installed Debian 5 Lenny on my PC and found myself in front of strange problem: 3/4 of my screen is filled by graphics on default, i mean 1/4 of screen is just GREY on logon screen, and then when GNOME starts i got the lower pannel on the bottom of 3/4 of screen, but suddenly i can take it and put it on the bottom, like it should be.
same stuff with maximizng the windows. when i maximize by just pressing one of those right-top buttons - it just fills 3/4 of screen. but if i maximize it by hands at first and THEN press the button - everything feels great.
something inside me says that i should post xorg.conf
We have the need to install an older Linux distribution (Suse 10) on a brand new laptop. The kernel that comes with Suse 10 doesn't have new enough drivers for the NIC and the drive controller. We've been able to find the source code for the NIC and build a working NIC kernel module however, we can not find the source code for the drive controller outside the kernel tree. Newer kernels see the drive fine; the controller is the Intel ATA_PIIX. Its included in the kernel, the hardware we have it just newer than the version in the old suse 10 kernel supports. I've crawled all over the intel site looking for the code outside the kernel source and have been unable to do so. Is it possible to lift the code from a newer kernel source tree? Is it available for download anywhere?
Edit: (from a comment below) SLED-10-SP2-x86 is the OS. The installation of these systems in an automated process, trying to change the process to include a VM (if we had the memory) or install a different base OS; while doable- can't be done in the time allowed. To get through process development, testing, UAT, staging and deployment takes much longer than the time we have. The old laptop had this same issue and the fix by my predecessor was building the NIC and drive modules by hand. We need to simply update those modules for this new laptop
Can someone recommend piece parts construct a reliable green server?
I am thinking: -Case with hot swapable drives, and energy efficient power supply -SSD harddrive for 5900 RPM drive -low power CPU, but one with a decent amount of power, IE. 2.0ghz dual core or better.
So, I usually write/find a test case generator for any code that I write. This type of code generally leads to some file output. To be thorough, I try and generate many different files to test my code on.
Say the command is like this:
Is there a way to automate this for many different values of the parameters and generate many different files?
I tried:
I wasn't able to use the $i in the filename, and without it the command gave me no errors, but did nothing else either. I know the Unix command line is very powerful, and I have a feeling that this should be possible, but I just don't know how to do it.
I'm still a but confused about the standard way of removing it for left-associative operators: [URL] Especially about how to construct an AST from it by executing a peice of code for every nonterminal matched. And I'm still not totally convinced that it will be left-associative, I just barely understand it. Also, how would you remove left-recursion for something like this:
Code: expr ::= expr "(" param_list ")" | other stuff...?
I have F14 on a laptop and can't see the laptop screen very well, unless I put my face like right up against the glass, is there a way I can login to my F14 laptop using my windows desktop computer?
whats the easiest way to do that?
I used to use nomachine in previous versions, is that method still used in F14? can't seem to find the FreeNX package anymore.
I used these instructions in previous versions: [URL]
which you'd think would still work in F14, but not sure what happened to FreeNX
otherwise, how do you do it using vncserver? I didn't do it that way in the past because I didn't understand how.
using XFCE window manager in F14 on a windows 7 desktop
Laptop: HP Pavilion dv6-1350us
Desktop: custom build Asus computer using a 23 inch Samsung SyncMaster 226bw LCD display
I am currently trying to upkeep and use my recently deceased fathers ubuntu machines, but as of 6 months ago I had never used Ubuntu or anything like it. I'm not trying to do all that much with it but a few days ago one of the machines lost its ability to connect to the internet, whereas every other machine in the house connects through the router just fine (wireless and ethernet.) I believe i've been able to diagnose part of the problem, the computer cannot connect to a DNS, but I have no idea as how to go about fixing it. My knowledge of Ubuntu is limited to just a few terminal commands. This computer is the one we use to network all of our printers and there are also some critical files on this machine that I need.
Networking? Im trying to connect to my other desktop (linuxmint) from this desktop(ubuntu 10).the linuxmint desktop has an eth0 connection and ubuntu has eth1.
Here's a strange one. On my internal network, there are two WinBlows boxes, both connected to my Linux Router/Firewall. Yesterday, I needed to download a file from http://www.freebsd.org. The 1st machine I tried, would not connect from FireFox. When I tried, on the 2nd, it connected immediately. So, I did all the usual "stuff" on the 1st one. Re-booted, as it's WinBlows, cleared browser cache, etc. etc. It still wouldn't connect. BTW, connecting to other web sites was no issue. Just FreeBSD.
So, just for grins, I ran a traceroute from both machines, and here's where it gets freaky. Here's the traceroute from the working machine code...
i have a computer at another house that i would like to controll from my house (both run ubuntu lucid lynx) how do i connect to the other computer using the viewer and remote server pre-installed in ubuntu
I have my Linux box in my Lan environment. I want to connect my Linux computer remotely from my windows PC using command line . how can I connect it remotely over the Lan ?
I am doing a project to develop a application that sends sms from a GSM mobile connected to the system. But i dont know how to detect a mobile fone and access it.
I have two computers and I'm trying to get them to talk to each other, but after I installed Fedora 14 on this computer, my other computer can't connect to this.
[code]...
Same with DAAP I'm using rhythmbox to both broadcast and listen to the DAAP, and the rhythmbox on the remote computer cant connect here either. ssh and VNC are working on the other computer as well, I can connect to other computers using ssh on both computers, and I can VNC over to the other computer without any problems, its the traffic going myway that seems to be hitting a roadblock. is it possible that since I installed a different system (was Ubuntu Natty before, and I was using all three services before I installed Fedora), I need to do something on my remote computer so that this won't crop up?
When I plug in a USB flash memory in my computer, nothing happens, not even does it register in Dolphin. Any ideas what I should do to solve this problem and be able to access the files on the USB stick?
I want to show you this scheme:MyPC -> router -> internet <- router <- Mom'spc I want to connect from my pc to my mom's pc using ssh. The first router doesn't represent a problem, but my mom's router does. Our IPs are both dynamic (anyway, I can easyly know them) and I have opened the port (TCP/UDP) 2100 on the router in order to open a gateway on mom's pc.The firewall is not enabled on the router, nor on mom's pc.
Granted all this, now I should be able to connect to that computer using ssh:ssh user@ip -p 2100 But I can't, I always get a "connection refused".if I do it on my intranet, I can connect without any problem (to others computers, of course, not mom's) What's the reason because I always get a connection refused?
I have Ubuntu 9.10 setup on a test box. I am able to connect to my Win XP box shares but I cannot connect to my Win 7 (64 bit) box I get the usual 'Unable to mount location'. I can get to the Win 7 share from my other Win box so it is a valid share. I also cannot connect via the Remote desktop viewer. I am afraid that if I cannot get this going my Ubuntu experiment i over before it started.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit, and my iPod doesn't seem to connect to the computer, when the iPod is connected and the computer is on before the OS loads, it says its connected, but once it starts booting, no connection. This isn't an iPod Touch or an iPhone, both of which work properly on the machine, ironically.
My friend gave me his old computer but he kept the hard drive, I have a computer with a 200 gb hard drive. could I partition the hard drive and have the computer my friend gave me access the other partition without having to take the hard drive out and connect it to the other computer?
I'd like to add music to my Nuron 5230 phone. I've tried installing gxnokii, tried rythymbox and nothing works. I cant even get the OS to react when connect my phone to the computer. I love ubuntu, its just that i'm a rookie and have no clue what plug ins or programs to look for. I was roaming the forum too and couldn't find anything specific.
Ok, so the computer I want to try this out on is not connected to the Internet at this time (and I even think the Ethernet is broken because when I tried to hook it up where the on-line computer is I couldn't seem to get my computer to connect).
So I wonder if I really need to be on-line to do the install.
My desktop doesn't seem to be connecting to the network until I login. This creates a problem if I'm trying to ssh in after a reboot. It's a wired connection. Any ideas?
edit: sorry my internet lagged and the thread got copied
My hard drive crashed and I put in my old one. Re-installed Ubuntu and now my wireless don't connect. I have to choose my network, then enter my password to get it to work.
if I install dhcp ip on my computer, then my computer will not connect to the network, but if I set it up with static ip then my computer will connect to the network. but after 5 minutes later my computer will be mounted from the server dhcp ip. and my computer is not connected anymore to the network dropped out again.
I am attempting to connect to my Windows Computer via a wired network on a sky router. When I tried with PClinuxOS it configured automatically. With the latest version of open SuSe this is quite a bit different. I have got as far as the network being auto and active with an Icon showing on the taskbar. However when I click on the Windows network Icon SuSe tries to locate my Computer but then comes back with "failed to retrieve share list from server". This is as far as I can get after several hours of trying.
Hey I just installed linux on my computer and it will not connect to any wireless networks, it will detect them and say try to connect but for some reason wont. It does connect just fine to a wired network.
