OpenSUSE Wireless :: EEEpc Rt2860sta V2.3 WEP Messing?
Jul 6, 2010
For a long time, on my netbook Asus EEE pc1000 working fine with my wireless (connecting WEP, WPA). Running with kernel 2.6.29 + rta2860sta v2.2 (package downloaded from the software repository , a user repository)
After somes updates (kernel mainly), all stop working. So I recompile the module v2.2 but don't work. I download from the ralink site the last version , recompile and installed , and appear work fine, but I don't know why the opensuse like to be very annoying and the knetworkmanager don't recognize the device. So , again I download a package from a user repository with the version 2.3 , what appear starts working again. Knetworkmanager recognize the device, but isn't cappable to connect in a WEP network. With WPA works fine.
If I disable the device in knetworkmanager and try configure manually , sometimes work. Probably have some sequence of command what I don't figure out what is. To configure WEP network before this problems I always use only the "iwconfig" command. But I try with "iwconfig" and "iwpriv" and don't work. So , afiter trying a lot of sequence, now I got connected to WEP network, but is very weird how they show this connection,

I use Ubuntu 11.04 on a PC clone desktop.With ethernet cable connects automatically, despite compiling wlan0 not connected. Do not know what I installed Ubuntu 10.04 and 11.04 over 30 times and still the same. Try to manually connect to the network connection did not work either hidden and also deal with ipv4 address assigned and neither worked.
1 ) Machine Brand and Model (PC/Laptop):
desktop pc, clon.
2)lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 Host Bridge
00:02.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 PCI to PCI Bridge (PCI Express Graphics Port 0)[code].....
Try setting manually to no avail not know if I did well. Ralink also downloaded from the rt2860sta and then compiled and did not work. Now I went to install Ubuntu 11.04 and change nothing but that which is above is what I have right now in the machine.

I just switched over to openSUSE about a week ago from Ubuntu and I just purchased an Asus N13 PCI-E wireless network adapter which uses an RALink 2860 chipset. I plugged it in and openSUSE was able to detect it and everything but when I went to go configure it using YaST, it wouldn't be able to scan for networks.
So, I reinstalled my old adapter, downloaded the latest source from RALink and compiled the drivers. When I tried to use insmod on the new .ko that was compiled, I got the "Could not allocate memory" error.
If you need dmsg logs or anything else, I can reinstall the card and get those.

I recently installed F14 on my EEEPC 1000H. Fedora is the distro that fully supports it, at least F13 (with the wireless drivers installed seperately). I noticed that F14 worked totally out of the box, without even having to install wireless drivers. However, there is a problem: If I turn off the wireless (using Fn + F2, I haven't tried any other ways) I then can't turn it back on. I mean, the lights indicating the wireless is working are on, Fedroa still says "Device is not ready".

I have just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and the wireless connection on my Asus EeePC 1000HE is not working.
Network is seen but connection is always rejected and pops up the dialog requesting my password. Password is entered properly and using proper protocol (WPA2)
Network is working perfectly under Windows 7 and Fedora.

I've tried a few suggestions in similar threads.. to no avail. I thought I had it fixed a few days ago when I noticed that the wireless would randomly disconnect only on battery power. So I tried "iwconfig wlan0 power off" and then reconnected. It worked, for a while, but then after minutes/hours later it will disconnect and stay disconnected until I restart. If you need anymore information, let me know. I might need to be walked through the process; though, as I'm a worthless noob.

My netbook model is Asus eeepc 1201n and I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 but I had the same problem while running 10.04: wireless disconnects and reconnects every 30 minutes or so and, after this has happened for a few times, it doesn't reconnect and keeps asking for the password.

On a new ASUS eee PC 1015P, the Windows 7 o/s supplied works fine. Experimenting with a Fedora 14 Linux o/s, currently just booting to a Live User system on a USB Stick, there is no wireless networking. In case it is relevant, the wireless LAN Card details (as reported from lspci) are: Ralink RT3090 802.11n 1T/1R Wireless LAN Card Driver Version 3.1.6.1 Should I be expecting wireless to be working on the USB version, do I need to do a full install to get wireless or is it maybe a drivers problem?

I've just installed Open SUSE 11.2 on my acer travelmate 250 laptop. Everything seems to work ok, it starts and shuts down without any complaints. I inserted my Huawei E169 USB modem to connect to my Mobile Broadband account and discovered a new icon appeared in the system tray that looks like a mobile phone. So i started messing around with its setings but do not seem to be able to get the think to work.
I'm with virgin mobile broadband in Australia, i've checked their website and the APN is virginbroadband and the username and password are both: blank However it still will not connect.

I have just purchased an Asus EeePC 1001HA netbook and I would like to install Ubuntu Netbook Edition 9.10 (love the look and the brilliant interface), but I can't get the wireless network to work. I am currently running from a 4Gb USB stick that has the LiveCD on it with a 1Gb persistence. The network notification area only shows wired and VPN connections. I have tried installing the Ralink 3090 driver but I have had no luck in getting the wireless to work.

one month at this stage and noticed recently that all automatic updates to my system have ceased, so I tried a zypper update from the terminal yesterday and believe it or not I got 1110 updates, about 7 deletions a 3 programs were changing architecture. This went all all day yesterday and finished sometime early this morning when I had to force a reboot as the shutdown button did nothing. After all those updates I do not notice any version upgrades for a few things I checked like Office, Amarok, DigiKAM etc but I am back to a most annoying problem that I had in my first few days i.e. my printer an Epson Stylus Color 760 is totally messing up 2nd and subsequent pages in a printout.
The last time this happened it seemed to sort itself out because deleting the printers discovered and their drivers did nothing. I am sorry to say it is putting me off SUSE 11.4 which I had liked BUT it is so frustating when I can't eben print more than one page correctly. I have come from Windows 7 where these problems did not exist.

When my akoya mini E1210 with UNR10.10 resumes after sleep my wifi searches forever and then cuts out. When I do iwconfig the card seems normal for about a minute and then I do iwconfig again it gives gives no id. Reboot and bang, everything perfect. Did make new driver from latest ralink driver, as explained by Sven ,but nu change. Also blacklisted the rt2800 and rt2x00.
Seems that after sleep the wifi card driver is not loaded. Worked like a charm in 9.10 and in 10.4 (upgrade from 9.10). After update to 10.10, it went wrong.
extra: when I do sudo ifconfig ra0 up I get the message "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted" Also, after hibernation, no luck...
in dmesg found that the mailbox keeps MCU active, and rt2860 could not be initialised.:

maarten-laptop kernel: [ 1902.174003] !!! rt28xx Initialized fail !!!
When Evolution Mail is not used, everything is ok. I know this message is not related to mail, but it helps for a while. After longer period of sleep, same problem again. Firmware problem?

Within a dual boot option two os are now available on the asus eeepc 1005ha,
(1) the windows xp system and in addition (2) the linux 11.1 version of opensuse.
After and also during the installation process of the linux 11.1 os, an error message had occured:
No network found!
I tried to fix it by changing some settings (network manager on/off), but no
improvement could be achieved. Some people argue to wait for a kernel
update higher than *.27.*
Somebody knows something how to fix the network (eth0) internet connection?

New eeePC 1015PEM netbook, 2GB RAM, 250GB HDD. Came with Win 7 Starter; I retained this and installed openSUSE 11.3 alongside. Everything works well in Win 7 Most things also work well in oS 11.3, but there is a knotty problem with audio from the built-in speakers. Headphones are OK, but the speakers don't work reliably. Others have reported this on similar machines, and a number of "fixes" have been proposed in a wide range of forums, but so far I haven't found any that work.
I've actually installed oS 11.3 twice. After the first install I had no speaker sound at all, but after a day or two fiddling around it started to work of its own accord for no reason I could point to. For unrelated reasons (a silly mistake by me in Win 7) I then had to re-install oS 11.3 from scratch. This time the speaker sound worked after install, but then it dropped out again a couple of days later. Headphone audio has remained OK throughout.
I'm aware of and have applied the acpi_osi=Linux kernel parameter to enable the Fn keys on the machine (including sound volume and mute/unmute), so it's not that. I've combed the forums and Google extensively for other suggestions, and have tried them - including installing alsamixergui. I've also installed a properly matched ALSA KMP which changed some of the alsamixer controls but didn't cure the problem. Since it all works very well in Win7 and works sometimes in oS 11.3, I conclude that the problem is not with hardware but is something in software.

I recently upgraded my Zepto laptop to Natty (11.04), and unfortunately the wifi no longer worked. I have a WPA net, and the combination with a Ralink chip seems unfortunate - judging from the number of internet posts.After browsing loads of threads on the 'net I think I have found a solution for 11.04 - it will work out of the box in 11.10 !
1) Add "blacklist rt2800pci" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
I think this makes the wifi stuff work as I can then do "iwlist wlan0 scan" and get reasonable output. But there is no integration with the Network Manager. So I have also done this (again, with inspiration from a few threads):
2) Edit /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf - change the "managed=false" under "[ifupdown]" to "managed=true".
You may have to do a "service network-manager restart", restart or similar to get it going.It also seems I can suspend and get a wifi net connection upon wakeup.

I tryied to modify the root password, but instead of using the "passwd" command, i tried to use "usermod -p", without knowing what outcome exactly i would get. But since then, i can't log as root, neither with my old neither with my new password. And i can't install absolutely nothing on my machine.
Please, help me... i have a test next wednesday, and i can't work in my blueprint. In appendix, i've uploaded a print screen of the sequence commands, for you to be able to explain me this phenomenom and to tell me how to solve it.

I'd like to know if there's a way, an option or something that will allow me to keep my .desktop files in /usr/share/applications untouched when I upgrade their programs.For example, I only want Chromium to appear in XFCE (for all usersdded the OnlyShowIn=XFCE" option to its .desktop file. The problem is that aptitude upgraded Chromium and reverted its desktop file back to its original configuration. Of course, I went ahead and added the same option again, but I'd like to know if there's a way to changs behavior of aptitude. I don't want to imagine the work I'll have to do again when they release a new version of KDE in the repos and I have to edit all of those files again. searched the forums for ".desktop files" and also for "/usr/share/applications" and got no significant results in the first 10 pages. The same with google. I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. Would it be a possible approach to add a directory to /etc/ to keep my settings fixed, the way there's an /etc/menu?

I am trying to mount cifs through fstab but it is not working. I have an Ubuntu samba server and a Kubuntu client. The share from the server is one dir with subdirs having different permissions and owners/groups. When I do AS ROOT:
Code:
smbmount //192.168.0.254/share /media/maps/share -o username=toshko%pass
the output of the "mount" command is as follows:
Code:
//192.168.0.254/share on /media/maps/share type cifs (rw,mand)
The result is messed up owners with different uids and groups:

I was told that the TurboTax DRM overwrites a boot sector on the first hard drive, possibly causing problems to the "non-windows" OS. Up to now I had used TT on a W2K only machine. Now that I have converted the whole office to Ubuntu or dual boot, I don't have the option anymore.

I'm thinking about upgrading my Windows Vista to Windows 7. I rarely ever use it but I figured that when I do have to use it I would rather use Windows 7.
Will it mess up Ubuntu or GRUB when I do this? Like GRUB not recognizing Ubuntu any more? I don't really know but I just wanted to ask this here just in case.

Using Kubuntu 10.04 here
I've been trying to make my microphone work and so I've pretty much messed around with the mixer (KMixer), mainly adding channels to the "equalizer" and checking and clearing "capture" boxes. After I did that my sound "disappeared" - I have no sound whatsoever (not even Kubuntu's initialization sound).
How can I fix this? Is it possible to go back to the "default" configuration?

I was messing around with vipw and accidentally wiped the whole file. Luckily, I have a backup copy.Is it safe to just paste the backup into any old file and "cp <file> /etc/passwd", or is there any special procedure?As I understand it, things are fine for now but if I restart very bad things will happen since root is gone and such

I have a new Asus Eee Pc 1215n and installed on it Ubuntu 10.10. This way it was configured as dual-boot with 4 partitions. One for Windows7 one for Windows recovery, one for Linux swap and one ext4 for Ubuntu.Everything was working fine until I installed the ext2fsd driver on Windows. It couldn't read the ext4 partition properly so I played with the options. There I tried changing the ext partition's type from "Linux" to "Linux extend" (which was obviously wrong). After the reboot I get a message when the computer starts up saying "error: partition not found" and in the next line "grub rescue>" with a dash flashing but without any recognizable commands.
I tried reinstalling grub from the Ubuntu 10.10 live cd following these instructions but now I get exactly the same screen, this time saying "error: file not found." instead. What was weird was that gparted in the live Ubuntu couldn't see any partition in the hard drive. It appeared like the whole space was unallocated.When I type 'help' in "grub rescue" it tells me "unknown command". When I type 'ls' it returns: (hd0) (hd0,msdos3) (hd0,msdos2) (hd0,msdos1)I think this might be a clue of what is going on since all the partitions should not be flagged as msdos.

Slackware 13.1_64, everything works like a charm,BUTevery time my slackware boots up,the sound system changes from one device to another.So if I boot now, sound address is hw:1.0.
then if I reboot, the sound address becomes hw:0.0It's really annoying, because every time I have to re-run xmms and mplayer setup to get any sound!Also, if any program is playing audio (like xmms), other programs cannot play audio at the same time.ie: if I'm listening music with xmms then I try opening some video with mplayer or firefox/flash, I get no audio on this video....What's the deal with kde phonon? I thought it was supposed to be the new global sound system for kde4, like arts was for kde3
