Networking :: 3G Modem Unstable After Upgrade To Wheezy?
Apr 23, 2011
I recently upgraded from Debian Lenny to wheezy (testing). I use a popular 3G modem, the Huawei E220. In Lenny everything worked fine. I use wvdial to connect and the script from lenny, which worked just fine.Unstable behaviour goes like this:I connect, pppd starts, then, either immediately or after a few seconds, the modem hangs up (pppd errorcode 16). Upon retry a SIM Error is being thrown or the /dev/ttyUSB0 node vanishes. Un/Re-plugging the modem and dialing again results in a working connection (mostly). Is there any possibility finding out why the modem hangs up (because a web research revealed that there are a million possibilities for this behaviour)?

I have an USB 3G Modem to access broadband internet.The USB 3G Modem is a flying angel from TechFaith company.The modem works fine under Windows XP. The USB 3G Modem propose a data partition with an automatic installation of its driver and software. When I plug the device to the 9.04 Ubuntu workstation it mounts the data partition, but does not find the 3G modem device. I search the internet to find a solution, and the only working solution I found is the following. However, this solution is not stable, after some minutes the device is dropped (no more ttyUSB). I can not use the same process to enable the device.
Code:
su -
eject /dev/sr1
modprobe -v option
echo "1d09 1026" >/sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id
[code]....
I used the wizard to configure the braodband access (Brunei/B-mobile). It works for somes minutes, and then the connection drops, the /dev/ttyUSB desappears and I can not redo the process.I have to enter the commands in a root shell, the sudo command will not enable the device. Why it does not works with sudo?

Recently, I installed VVVVVV and discovered that when attempting to use fullscreen mode, the monitor displays "video mode not supported" for 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, and auto. After googling around for an hour or two (and only finding stuff from 2008-09) I have created a new xorg.conf from Xorg -configure and nvidia-xconfig. This doesn't seem to have had anyeffect.DebianRelease unstable (sid)Kernel Linux 3.0.0-1-amd64GNOME 3.0.2GeForce 7600 GSMonitor: Hyundai Imagequest

Since I upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04 my wireless connection is very unstable. I install the needed wireless drivers from 'Hardware Drivers' (Broadcom STA wireless driver) and I got wireless connection, but it randomly disconnect, and also connection is very slow.
I think that the problem are the drivers which are not very compatible with this version of Ubuntu, which means we need to wait for update? I have HP ProBook 4510s laptop, Intel PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN network card & Gembird NSW-R2 router. I'm only having this problem on Ubuntu 10.04, on other OS's the internet is fine.

I got a new dsl modem/router today and now for some reason I can't login into an ssh session using putty and windows using the hostname of the debian box. I can login using the ip though. Also, it seems I can still access the debian box via samba/windows explorer using the host name.

I got "stuck" with stable up to now and want to upgrade to Wheezy. But, although I've done this before, I'm having a dependency problem I wanted to ask about before breaking my system somehow. This is the /etc/apt/sources.list, ready for Wheezy:
[URL]
So, I regularly use aptitude as my package manager. After updating the database with aptitude update, trying aptitude full-upgrade gives me a huge of conflicts.
[code]....
But, if I use apt-get dist-upgrade, I get no conflicts. if I dist-upgrade with apt-get, will that affect my daily usage of aptitude (which I prefer)? I know APT is a single database and apt-get and aptitude are just different interfaces, but I guess differences might rise when marking packages as automatically or manually installed.

I dist-upgraded my Debian unstable and 'cups' removed the official drivers ('cndrvcups-common_2.00-2_i386' and 'cndrvcups ufr2-uk_2.00-2_i386'). Well, now my network Canon i-SENSYS MF4120 multifunctional printer/scanner doesn't work and the drivers can't be installed back

I upgraded my Wheezy 7.8 to make sure all packages were installed Before taking the next step to upgrade to Jessie.I upgraded to Jessie and it seemed to run OK....but after reboot I had no network Connection..I checked ifconfig and the wrong network card mac address is being assigned to the wrong card....?I have a clonezilla server on my server, so this was my network interfaces before and after upgrade
Code: Select all# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
[code]...
I even checked nano /etc/resolv.conf and sure enough my gateway was the same for my Internet eth0.When I ran ifconfig I could see that the eth0 mac address was set as eth1..I tried to reset my drbl for clonezilla but that only sees the vmware Connection and not my actural cards.. have taken alook at /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and the assignment is right but not ifconfig?

With "quiet" removed from the grub linux line, I'm getting the following error messages when the boot hangs up early in the boot process (19.768231 seconds into boot).:
input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=3 as devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.1/sound/card0/input6
input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=7 as devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.1/sound/card0/input7
input: HDA NVidia HDMI/DP,pcm=8 as devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.1/sound/card0/input8
So, is this a NVidia issue or a sound card issue?

I upgraded one of my Squeeze installations to Wheezy, but after selecting it in grub, nothing is displayed on screen: no CLI and no GUI. I tried Ctrl + Alt + F[1-7] and I got nothing. My laptop is Acer Aspire 7715Z. I am attributing this to module as there seems to be disk activity, but without a screen, I cannot be certain.

Sound is not working perfectly since installation. I fixed it by command: 'alsactl init' every time sound doesn't come out. However, since last week, sound was not working. I suspect it was caused by the 'apt-get upgrade' I did.
Code: Select allroot@debian:~# alsactl init
alsactl: init:1743: No soundcards found...
lspci (only audio)
Code: Select allroot@debian:~# lspci -v
00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS7012 AC'97 Sound Controller (rev a0)
  Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. Device b002
[Code] ....
It seems I am missing a module/ kernel driver for the sound card
Note: I have testing in sources list but have stable with higher priority. So I should still be in Wheezy

is it possible to simulate upgrading a Squeeze installation to a Wheezy or Jessie installation, on a OVH server ?I would like simulate upgrading server, and if not problems, upgrading in real time.I don't do that manipulation, and I don't do mistakes on a production server.

i have an installation of wheezy 7.8 i think. i was facing difficulties in read of matroska video. therefore have decided to installer gstreamer1.0 wich should be resolve my problem. i have added the backports repository in apt sources list. after an apt-get update i launch apt-get install gstreamer1.0 . i have noticed it have starting downloading more file than it needs i concluded that it was a upgrade or something like because the kernel was also updated. after the the packet downloading it has started the installation with some errors related to LOCALE LCC. it has stopped and restarted some services wich is normal. i have closed all others apps and restarted. Here start the hell. after the restart i have passed the kde login screen and after BLACK SCREEN with mouse working.
Alt+F2 don't open the krunner
What i have tried? i have rename the /home/jefcolbi/.cache and back it again, rename /home/jefcolbi/.kde and back it again. next i have tried to check the Xorg config file. i created a new one with X -configure, modified it to feet my system configuration this does not resolve the problem but add another the keyboard is not working in graphical mode.
My system configuration:
Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro L300
Dual core
3gb Ram
graphic card:Mobile Intel(R) GMA 4500MHD
sound card: Intel HD Audio
debian whezzy 7.8 with KDE
Note: everything was working fine before trying to install gstreamer1.O from backports repository

find and install modem driver for the Alcatel X200 USB modem?
I've been all over the internet trying to locate Linux drivers but no success. Alcatel's website says is not supported, only in Windows. I'm sure there's gotta be a way to use the X200 in Linux.

I have upgraded my debian server on april when Jessie came up, but I *forgot* to reboot at this time. As a new kernel* was released this week as a security update, and since my server installed it (via unattended-upgrade on security packages), I rebooted it last night. It never came back online.
I have access to a rescue boot (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS), and tried to analyse the failure (by mounting /sys /dev /proc and /boot and chrooting), but without luck so far.
As it's a dedicated server, I don't have access to the console. What I know :
No log in var/log since the failed reboot. I don't know how to have/find others logs.Previous kernel was 3.2.0-4-amd64, new is 3.16.0-4-amd64, What I tried without luck) :
Change the booting kernel, via update-grub. Tried 3.2, 3.2 with sysvinit and 3.16 rescue mode I think. I should have done it right, but without console it's hard to tell.apt-get update/apt-get upgrade/apt-get dist-upgradeadding nomodeset to kernel load in grubWhat I haven't tried :
update-initramfs, I don't really know why it would block the boot
*linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64:amd64 3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u2

I upgraded from deb7 to deb8, but am no longer able to boot. After passing the grub boot menu, the following messages are displayed:
Code:

_
The screen then clears and an underscore is displayed as the sole character at the top left position of the screen. The system hangs at this point. During installation, I rejected two changed files: /etc/init.d/bootlogd and /etc/libreoffice/sofficerc. For both, I opted to keep the installed version (the default choice of the installer) rather than replacing with the new version. The first might be related to the problem, although it seems to be responsible only for logging the boot process, and I would not expect this to compromise booting.
In case this information is useful, sda1 is mounted at /, sda2 is swap space, sda3 is extended, and sda5 is a logical partition mounted at /home.
I am able to boot into rescue mode, but other than that the system is not usable. Unfortunately, no useful error messages are given to aid in diagnosing the problem.

I've changed my /etc/apt/sources.lst file to use "jessie" repositories instead of "wheezy". I then ran synaptic and updated everything (there were loads of packages, something like 2000 to update).
After this I rebooted. The grub menu shows as usual with the background image I'd set and the operating systems as usual (including Windows 7) however there is no longer a 5 second countdown and when I select *any* menu option, it asks for a username and password.
I don't know what username and password it's asking for as I never used to have one set!!! I did have a username and password set up so that if you wanted to edit a grub menu option so I tried that but to no avail.
I'm using MBR/BIOS not EFI.

Recently I upgraded my machine from wheezy to jessie.
Everything went smooth until the point that I restarted the node.
During startup I'm getting the following message which is flooding the screen:
Code: Select allsystemd-journald[296]: Failed to forward syslog message: Connection refused
After waiting a long time (the message above still continues to flood the screen), I'm being prompted with the following:
Code: Select allGive root password for maintenance (or type Control-D to continue):
If I press Ctrl+D the boot process continues and finally boots normally.
What I can do to avoid pressing Ctrl+D during the boot process?
I'm assuming that it must be a startup service which is failing but I'm unable to trace which exactly is that.
I'm attaching the full log [URL] ....

I'm on Wheezy with version 304.117 of the proprietary nvidia driver installed and working, but an application I have needs a newer version of the driver. I'm trying to install the 319.82 version in backports by following the instructions given here, but when I issue the command to install nvidia-kernel-dkms, I get the following:

Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] q
The mint-flashplugin problem is a separate issue which I've had for a while. I assume that it can be ignored for the purposes of this post.
If I'm reading the aptitude output above correctly, it's telling me that the only way to "resolve" the conflict is by uninstalling all nvidia support, leaving me with no driver at all. Is that right?

I have done on previous releases, but this time it hangs on me. It's "only" a Virtualbox, so I can reproduce it.
The wheezy already runs systemd, and is fully updated to to latest packages. Does not run any graphical.
Edits the source.list and does
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get upgrade # Did on one upgrade
$ apt-get dist-upgrade
It starts to upgrade (complains about missing version in libpgp-error), libc is installed, but at some point the systemd is running at high CPU and a dpkg seems to be stalled.
Should I disable systemd on wheezy before? This might not have been tested so much.

During Karmic betas, my Marvell 88E8056 did not work at all. When Karmic got released, it started working but after December update, become terribly unstable, disconnecting like every 5 minutes. It is integrated on P5Q-E mobo. Luckily, I also have Marvell 88E8001 so I switched and it works. I was thinking that new kernel broke driver, and thought that next update will fix it. But yesterday I needed both NICs, and 88E8056 is still did not work. I am using .31-17 kernel. So I do not know if my NIC died or what? Can someone with same NIC say if it works for him? Does it work in Lucid Alpha 1 ?

I have just switched to Ubuntu from Win 7 RC. So far its been fun, learning to use terminal and all. But I have got a problem now I cannot find a solution to.
I am using 3 Mobile Broadband. The thing just worked - I plugged it in, created a new connection, modified config a little and was happily browsing.
However, it started acting out yesterday. When I boot the system with the modem plugged in, the USB stick is recignised and NetworkManager starts connecting (I have auto connect on). It then shows the "connected" message, and generally appears working fine.
On the other hand, I cannot open a single page in Firefox, it shows the default server not found page.
I used the approach Windows taught me: close, open, retry. I unmount the 3 Mobile Broadband drive, pull the modem out and reconnect it. NetworkManager then does it's job and this time everything works.
I nether had this problem in Win7 or Vista. It looks to me something goes wrong during the booting when the modem is plugged in.

A fresh Xubuntu 10.10 install will give me access to my network, but with fluctuating speeds, and certain pages load forever. I have tried the blacklist edit as well as ndiswrapper, and neither have helped me. I can't find a madwifi guide for this issue either. Details: Upon fresh install of xubuntu 10.10, wireless is detected. I enter my, key, hit google, and all is good. Then I try to log into my online classes. Firefox hung forever. So I tried a few other sites, and to my disappointment, random sites seemed to fail. Brand-new, fresh, clean Xubuntu 10.10 install, Toshiba Satellite M45-165.

I understand that wireless is one of the most common problems with Linux, although I did not have this experience with past distributions or versions. After two years away from Ubuntu I installed 10.04 and everything is working fine except the wireless connection. Actually, it does work and connect, but goes up and down, loses connection and in most cases does not reconnect, unless I am 1 meter from the router. The room next door is already too far, a place where I normally have my laptop connecting perfectly with XP.
I am using a Toshiba M70,some additional information below:
