Slackware :: Airmon-ng Not Setting Channel Correctly?
Jan 5, 2011
I recently installed slackware-current (not the most recent one) and since then I have not been able to get airmon-ng to set the channel of my network card correctly. I don't think it's a driver issue because the kernel from my previous install was the same as the current kernel (2.6.35.7) and it worked fine on my Atheros AR9285 Wireless card. Now every time I try to deauthenticate, it says the card is in channel -1 and won't work. One of the differences now is that I ran netconfig (I never ran this before). Sometimes when I run it, it complains about dhcpcd service.

When I installed Wicd, and ran it for the first time, I got an error something like: "Could not connect to Wicd's dbus session- check the Wicd log file for more info". However, later when I restarted my computer, Wicd started, but I can't connect to my network, it shows up as <hidden>, I can connect to linksys, so I know that wireless is working on that computer. I know that there's nothing wrong with my wireless router, because I can connect to my network in this computer.

I'm fairly new to Linux so I'm going to need a step-by-step guide to get me out of this rut. The install of Linux was fine but when I booted up I got this error. VFS: Cannot open root device "302" or unknown-block (3,2) append a correct "root=" boot option;here are the available partitions;
0800 78150744 sda driver:sd
0801 47428608 sda1 <-- this is my Windows partition
0802 30719552 sda2 <-- this is my Linux partition
0b00 1048575 sr0 driver:sr
0b01 1048575 sr1 driver:sr
Kernel panic - not syncing:VFS:Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (3,2) I guessed from reading this error Lilo isn't pointing to the right partition to boot from? How will I fix this? I read another thread about boot problems on these forums and a guy said to do this:
#mkdir /slacktemp
#mount /dev/device /slacktemp
#chroot /slacktemp
#cd /slacktemp/etc <-- for me it told me that doesn't exist
#vi lilo.conf <-- couldn't do nothing and was frozen
#lilo -v -t -b /dev/device
#lilo -v -b /dev/device
The above solution did not work for me. Can anyone shed a light on a Linux rookie?

I have a display problem since updating to Slackware 13.37. Everything was fine on Slackware 13.1, but when I switched to 13.37 some piece of software came up with the wrong monitor size. I have a 1600x900 LCD monitor but the X screen came up as 1024x768 with blackness on either side of it. Under Slackware 13.1 the X screen came up as 1600x900 as it should without any prompting from me; I didn't even have an Xorg.conf file. I tried using the Xorg.conf file which was needed and work for older Slackwares, eg 12.*, but it didn't work. (Saying it didn't work is a gross understatement! That old Xorg.conf completely screwed up mouse, keyboard, and monitor; the screen was flashing and nothing worked. The only way to get control back was to SSH into the machine from my laptop and reboot. Killing the X server via that SSH console did NOT the flashing or get me back to my console login; only reboot worked.)
I find I can get the screen to be the right size manually by going through KDE's "System Settings" --> "Display and Monitor" --> "Size & Orientation", then disabling "LVDS1" and setting VGA1 to 1600x900. The size of my odd-sized monitor is being correctly detected for the "Auto" choice. Upon reboot LVDS1 stays disabled but VGA1 reverts to 1024x768 so I have to do this each time.I've done some search of the on-line literature regarding the error messages I am seeing in the boot log.
People are suggesting changing all kinds of things to alleviate the side effects of the "conflicting" error message above, even modifying GRUB parameters (which won't work for me since I use LILO).So, I have a manual work around which I must do each time I log in. Does someone know how I can get X or KDE to force 1600x900 upon start (while Linux/X/whoever find and fix the problem) or does someone know of a real fix?

When I try to install something with KPackage, I get an error like the following:
error: Unable to create channel for file: <filename>
where filename is usually the tgz file I'm installing from. I can't find any references to this anywhere - any have any idea what it's telling me, and how to solve? A specific example is Wine - it gives this error:
error: Unable to create channel for file: /usr/local/src/wine-1.1.24-i486-1kjz.tgz
I'm running this as root in xfce. Running it as a regular user, after giving root password, gives the same result.

I installed an Asus P7P55D PRO motherboard and now I can't mute Master channel with alsamixer, even not using KDE mixer. Probably ALSA doesn't support properly, despite I upgraded alsa libraries (alsa-lib-1.0.21a). The key to increase or decrease the volume through keyboard works fine, but the key for mute is not working. These are the alsamixer values:
Card: HDA Intel
Chip: VIA ID 444
I also used alsaconf command and it detects a snd-hda-intel board. I have a G15 keyboard and I even tried to make a shortcut with KDE mixer, but it doesn't work. Is there any way to solve it or have I to wait for a new version of alsa? I use Slackware64 13.0 with kernel 2.6.32.7.

PC seems to run fine in single channel mode but monitor reports no input in dual channel mode and memtest86+ lists from 1-3 errors per pass in single channel mode. Motherboard (Gigabyte P43T-ES3G) can't be set for the 1.65 volts required by the RAM (2x2 of OCZ3P1333LV4GK PC3 10666). The mobo voltage choices are 1.6 or 1.7 volts. I have tried both and increased the MCH voltage from 1.1 v to 1.2 v, but so far can't get it to run in dual channel mode at all and single channel mode seems to run fine but I still get errors in memtest86+. Also tried optimized Bios settings and loosened memory timings (from 7-7-7-16 to 8-8-8-27 and tRFC 60 to 70) and reset Command Rate from 0 to 2. CPU is Core 2 Quad @ 2.4 Ghz, PSU is rated at 400 watts, Video card is Gigabyte GT220.

When I use mplayer (i.e. play a movie with it) the system will sporadically freeze completely, for around 13 seconds. Everything halts as if the system is having a kernel panic or worse -- even the clock halts. Around 13 seconds pass, everything returns to normal (the clock then jumps 13 seconds ahead, as well), and from the kernel pool log (dmesg) I observe this:
Code: NVRM: Xid (0000:02:00): 8, Channel 00000004 This seems to happen at sporadic time intervals, but can happen as often as every two minutes at "worst", making watching a movie clip the most annoying experience you can imagine.
I have tried to update the graphics drivers to the latest version, to no avail. I also have no idea how this issue started in the first place. I use Slackware 13.1.0 on a fast x86 (4.1 GHz Core i7, 6 GiB RAM, SSD, GTX480, etc.). There are no other known issues with the system. I don't use any sort of package managers or automatic updates. This issue happens regardless of whether the media played is physically local on the computer, or if it is on a network.

I'm trying to crack my wep password just for kicks, but I keep running into the same error. When I try to use airplay-ng for the packet injection, it always gives me the error " wlan0 is on channel -1, but the AP uses channel 6". I've tried setting wlan0 to channel 6 manually, but that doesn't help. I spent a while searching for a solution, but it seemed like each page had a different, usually highly complex solution, that still doesn't work. I have the most recent drivers for my wireless card, and it meets all the requirements. So, is there any solution to this that will actually work?

Thinking about building a new system, with 4GB of DDR3 RAM. I am just wondering, which would you prefer: Dual-channel DDR3 or Quad-channel DDR3? Does one have better speed performance over another? Will one way keep your system cooler?

Have any of you build llvm with clang (the llvm from slackbuilds do not include clang). I need clang to use it with autocomplete in vim. I can 'configure, make, make install' with no problems. Without changing the header files location in the 'InitHeaderSearch.cpp' file of clang I got the iostream not found error when trying to clang++
I then edit the file to make the header point to '/usr/include/c++/4.5.2/' instead of '/usr/local/include'. Make again and install. Now when I run clang++ -v myfile.cpp I get
Code:
george@darkstar:~/coding/cpp/cos1512/ass1/q1$ clang++ -v question1.cpp
clang version 3.0 (trunk 135766)

Slackware 13.37
Trying to manually set a frequency/channel for my wlan0 device, but it seems not to be working.
"iw wlan0 set channel 1" doesn't take any effect on wlan0 frequency, no matter if it's after a reboot (no frequency defined) or after a successful connection with an AP (with a given frequency already defined)
Code:
root@ECRNT-10:~# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11abgn Mode:Monitor Frequency:2.437 GHz Tx-Power=15 dBm

My printer, a Samsung ML-2251NP is not working correctly with Slackware 64 13.1. On Slackware64 13.0 it worked flawlessly, but now everytime I print it is just solid black on the whole page. I usually selected either the ML-2250 driver or the ML-2551N driver and it worked, but now I have this problem with both of them. I print a lot, so I need a working printer. It works fine in Windows 7. This is a network attached printer.

After a fresh install of Slackware64-current could not get X to start correctly with the nouveau driver. When ever X started display was scrambled. Only kde would partially work with desktop effects enabled, but very slow. Without desktop effects enable kde was also scrambled. After trying several things and googling came up with the following. To get X to work created a nouveau-kms.conf file in /etc/modprobe.d with the following text.
Code: options nouveau noaccel=1 The one draw back to this solution is that Kde will not start with desktop effects enabled. Hopefully this will help someone else with similar problems. Maybe someone else has a better solution. video card: Nvidia Geforce 6150se nForce430

After experimenting with version 6.0 of ffmpeg there were a few issues i was not totally happy with, so i decided to downgrade back to the 2008 build of ffmpeg.However now whenever i encode a libxvid/libmp3lame movie with ffmpeg (using the exact same settings I have always used), the output created .avi file is reported by KDE as having:
Quote:
Audio Codec: none
This is truly odd (and quite annoying) as the .avi movie plays correctly with sound on both Smplayer and Kaffeine, so i don't think it is a codec issue, but it just does not display the correct audio codec tag anymore. how the metabar properties are controlled in KDE?, or if there is a config that I can adjust to make the new created output .avi's report the Audio Codec correctly as 'mp3'? (like it used to).Also, does anyone know if ffmpeg 6.0 may have left some files behind on my system that is causing this sudden odd behavior?

Can you "split" a network interface in Ubuntu, similar to how airmon-ng lets you use your wireless card in managed and monitor mode, by making another interface out of the same hardware? I know it'd be slower, but I'd still like to do it.

I'm having problems getting my Canon MP-210 printer/scanner recognized as a scanner device in Slackware 13.0.CUPS setup was a breeze - in less than two seconds it was installed and within 10 more seconds it was printing a test page.Its URI is here, according to CUPS:
usb://Canon/MP210%20series (Printing works flawlessly).My non-privileged user account is a member of the 'wheel', 'scanner', and 'plugdev' groups in /etc/group (among the others recommended by the adduser script. I've tried running xsane as root (Still no devices found) with no success, and the CLI 'scanimage -L' doesn't produce anything either.They just report that there is no configured device.
I've run 'sane-find-scanner' and it reports the following:
Code:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x1721 [MP210 series]) at libusb:001:003 Rebooting and unplugging/plugging in the scanner produces no positive results. /etc/sane.d/dll.conf has the following canon lines in it:
Code:
canon
canon630u
#canon_pp
I believe the appropriate entry is the canon630u.
/etc/sane.d/canon630u.conf contains the following:
Code:
# Options for the canonusb backend
# Autodetect the Canon CanoScan FB630u
usb 0x04a9 0x2204

reading through the documentation for pk2cmd, required for using the PICkit2 programmer. I aim to install using the source, and thus libusb-dev is needed. The docs says that the runtime is usually included with the distro but the dev-part is not. Well, to be on the safe side, I downloaded the source for libusb (0.1.12), which in turn should contain libusb-dev.One step down, a few more to go. pk2cmd should be pretty straightforward to compile, but ...
Now I am asked to set up USB so that it can be used by users other than root. A document is filled to the brim with instruction for cases old and new. It makes my head spin and that's why I am asking. The programmer shows up fine with lsusb,I see it as/dev/bus/usb/001/006So, basically, as I understand it, the device need the proper rights to be used by a regular user. But how do I do that?

I'm trying to set up my system to act as a vnc so I can access it remotely via a vnc viewer on my android phone. I've never tried this before but from what I've found online, with KDE4 a lot of the usual vnc server programs won't work correctly. Anyone have any tips for getting it to work? It doesn't necessarily have to be vnc. If there's an alternative method to remote control of a computer, that will work too.

I have problems with setting my JAVA_HOME variable. I am using Slackware 12.0, bash shell. This is a question for the 'Linux Newbie' forum (not slackware-specific).
I have set JAVA_HOME in my /etc/profile, like this:
But when I login in with my user name and type env on the command line, I get for JAVA_HOME the following:
Also, in my /etc/profile I have put the path to my java in the PATH variable, like this:
And when I type env when I login, then the PATH variable contains correctly the path to the jdk (as I have put it into /etc/profile).
I expect that after I have set everything as I want in /etc/profile, and restart the computer then what I have set will be relevant and when I login and type env, I will get values to the variables equal to those I have set in /etc/profile. Why it does not happen?
I have particularly a problem with a Java application, which I want to run. When I type ant, I get:
error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly. We cannot execute /usr/lib/java/bin/java.
