Slackware :: Cannot Connect To 32 Bit Slackware Box With Macbook Pro Either
May 7, 2011
I wasnt sure where to put this, since both of my boxes are slackware i posted it here. I am having ssh issues, im going from a 64 bit slackware 13.37 to 32 slackware 13.1. Now I can connect from the 64bit box with windowsxp pro using putty, to the 32 bit slackware box, but i get an error on the slackware 64 bit which says no route to host. It is the same computer, host name is the same and router ipaddress is the same on either windows or slackware boot. It isnt a fire wall, as i had none, until a couple minutes ago, of which i still get the same error. Is there something i am required to do to set up ssh on this box. Oh just for the record, I cannot connect to the 32 bit slackware box with my macbook pro either.

I have a realtek 8187b devid 8189 and tried connect to a wep encrypted connection I "borrow" frequently using iwconfig first and it wouldn't connect then I installed wicd and it says bad password. I've connected successfully using multiple other distros, openbsd, os x, and windows. Anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?If you need anymore info I can boot into slack and write it down or something.

I think it's the HDA Intel anyway. In alsaconf it comes up with, 'hda-intel Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller', and I select that one. When I do, 'aplay /home/emor/sample.wav' it says it's playing but I don't here any audio. I've tried various configurations on both the alsamixer and the graphical XFCE sound mixer, and neither have really done anything. [URL]...

I thought it was a driver issue, but after messing around with the ALSA mixer a lot, it turned out that when I enabled headphones(or disabled, honestly not sure) that my headphones worked, and when I took them out the speakers worked. Then when I rebooted for whatever reason, only the speakers(built-in) worked. Really, I'm not sure why this is.
When I got them to work there was a switch for the headphones in the graphical mixer(which is what I used, not the ncurses[?] ALSA thing), but I can't seem to find that anymore. It's not a major issue, it just puts me off watching videos and listening to music because my laptop speakers are really low quality. I'd go out to buy a pair of external speakers, but obviously with the audio jack not working, this could be problematic.
I guess I could buy USB external speakers but then the probability of Slackware having pre-installed audio drivers for a cheap generic brand of speakers is so low it doesn't justify the effort of going and buying some, nor the money that would be spent. Willing to enter any commands/w.e. I'll be on Slackware all the time 'cause I need a Linux system right now.

I can't connect to Internet on Slackware. I've blacklisted the modules rt2800usb, rt2x00usb and rt2x00lib in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf.

I see the device in dmesg. On the macbook pro 6,1 it gets issued IRQ 19 and loads sata_sil24 and ata_piix correctly, however on the 5,1 and 5,2 macbook pro it only loads sata_sil24 and gets IRQ 24. Is there anyway to specify the IRQ assigned to the device via the kernel (is it an IRQ conflict or device not working on IRQ24)? MacBook Pro uses an EFI so not traditional bios where I can set irqs. Am I looking in the right direction as to the cause of my problem? Slackware 13.1 with standard linux kernel 2.6.35.8

I have been given the task to install slackware 13.1 over windows. I have downloaded and copied slackware 13.1 on to a disk, and rebooted the computer, but i am not getting what all the tutorials have shown. I have been looking for tutorials that specifically instruct me as to how to install slackware 13.1 on to a windows xp. I am not trying to dual run I just simply want to run slackware and slackware only.

I have slackware 13.1 version. When I use console I connect to ftp servers via ftp but not via sftp. I cannot connect to an ftp server with mc. I think that mc uses sftp. How can I make mc use ftp instead of sftp to connect to an ftp server?

Just finished installing slackware 13.37 64 bit on two boxes which are connected to the modem. I ran netconfig to enable dhcpd and the two boxes are on the internet working. Now, what I don't understand is how should I access(r/w) files from one another.

When I installed Slackware it configured it by the way I was originally connecting to the internet by. Which was corded to the router. I want to just connect directly to the modem but don't know the steps to make it work correctly.

Right now I cannot ping to my default gateway. The machine also has SuSE installed on a separate partition. Networking with the same parameters runs fine in that installation.
I use a troubleshooting checklist for situations like this:
- network troubleshooting checklist
- (case of wired connection with static ip)
- make sure net cable is well plugged in on both sides. CHKD.
- make sure ifconfig eth0 details the static IP you want set and that the iface is running (this stage is quite a head start if you've got to it. It would suggest that you have rc.inet1.conf set up properly. CHKD.
- HAL checked against eth0, and it also specifies eth0 for this interface.
- no problem pinging to 127.0.0.1
- type "route" and see if your default gateway comes up. SEMI-CHK: it does come up but takes a long while .. that's bad sign. It still means your rc.inet1.conf is OK, but here's something else up.
- check /etc/resolv.conf for your nameservers .. just in case some over-zealous program has decided to overwrite it. CHKD, all OK .. I use the google nameservers 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.8.8
Despite using what I thought were decent tools of the trade, if I unplug the cable they give the same output!

I have a dual boot Linux system with Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 and Slackware 12.1. I have a USB modem Huawei 1261 that I am using with Ubuntu with the usb_modeswitch package. I would like to get that working with Slackware 12.1. The usb_modeswitch seems to be working fine and also the "wvdial cdma" seems to working but Firefox can't connect to the internet.

I'm using a Verizon/Nortel USB760 wireless modem (worker just fine in 13.0, got problems in 13.1). Using KPPP, I connect to the service, waltz around reading mail, news and LQ then disconnect and close KPPP. I let it sit for any length of time then open KPPP, connect and it can see the modem, attempts to initialize it and it just sits there - I have to unplug the modem and reconnect it to get it going again. /var/log/messages doesn't give any hints (everything looks normal I think) and nothing else does either -- the indicate light on the modem stays green and all that. I've tried ejecting it (nope) and whatever else I can thing of (which ain't much) including reviewing Changes and Hints, READMEs and all.
Is there some setting I may have missed or a USB rule or do I need to poke the thing somehow to get it going? USB-Modeswitch automagically figures out what the device is and does its settings (so there's no "conf" file any more - unless I really missed something there).

I have successfully installed Slackware though in virtualbox.I thought to learn first before falling into any pitfalls. Will do hard disk installation after learning more in virtualbox..But, I see now that I can't connect to the internet in the virtualbox... The host OS is Windows 7 and Virtualbox guest additions are installed and configured too.

I successfully installed the latest version of slackware, but much to my chagrin it does not auto-connect itself to the internet like my crunchbang does. I read a little from ch.5 of the slackware book, so I know what command to run, but I don't know what to do after running netconfig. I'm using crunchbang right now to get access to the forums, so I know my internet works with this computer. I tried to set up a DHCP connection, but that didn't do anything. So I have two questions:
1.) How do I tell if I have a Static-IP, DHCP, or Loopback connection?
2.) Can I use Crunchbang to get the information I will need, since it connects to the internet like a pro?

I recently moved out of state and don't have access to the net, however the neighbor of where I am staying is nice enough to let me leech off of her network till I get going. I know next to nothing about slackware and wireless networks since I have never had to mess with it. I have done my reading and have gotten this far.
1) wirelss card is installed and recognized, its a PCI b/g card that uses the ath5 module. The module is loaded and seems to be working.
2) I have heard wicd is easy so I installed it from /extra and it found my essid and accepted the wep password and it says connected at 45% and shows an IP.
however when I launch firefox or try to ping out nothing happens.

I recently swapped from ubuntu to slackware. It's all functioning, minus the wireless network. Decided to forgo my usual fluxbox desktop for the features in KDE until I get ready to swap back (not sure what programs I'll have to add to startup in flux yet). I'm using a toshiba satellite L305-S5957 with a Realtek 802.11b/g wireless-LAN adapter. Not sure if it's a hardware problem or if I just don't know how to connect with kde.

I'm running Linux 2.6.39.3, and when I upgraded to 3.0 by Mr. Hamaleers page here:
[URL]
Everything worked fine. My computer was working too, but my internet wasn't. Since it works on the original kernel, I know that maybe it's something I was supposed to install as part of "make [variable]config" The network icon is there, but it doesn't connect automatically as 2.6.39.3 does if that helps as a part of the description.

In fact I dont like number 13 and perhaps its the reason Ive been worried about changing slack 13 version! However, I downloaded an iso-dvd-13.1 from official website (http://www.slackware.com/getslack / torrents). It occurred a twice and I recorded it using k3b, CDBurnerXP and Poweriso. Then I changed speeds in a way of take off recording disfunctions or panics in the media ... Unfortunatelly I didnt get success to install the system so my 80G seagate sata hd is not recognized. Thereby I changed hds, cables, memory and nothing! I' m using an Asus A8V-mx motherboard (AMI BIOS, WfM 2.0, SM BIOS 2.3 and CHIPSET VIA K8M800 / VIA VT82510).In it sata hdd is on during boot loader, but after that dvd disk hugesmp.s 2.6.33-smp kernel break donw and I dont connect sata and neither go ahead a full install. I tryed :
fdisk /dev/sd*;
cfdisk (fatal error: can not open disk drive) and
# ls -l /dev/sd* returns
/bin/ls: can not access /dev/sd*. No such file or directory
I wish an easy fresh install. In this system if I use slack 12.2 version its ok.
