I'm running Debian Squeeze now, just did an upgrade yesterday. I had wl for my wireless and it was all working fine in Lenny. Now that I'm upgraded, wicd can't find anything at all.

This might seem like an odd problem, but I can't find gstreamer-properties on my system. Also I can't find a package that provides it. I have tried the following
gstreamer
gstreamer-tools
gnome-media
control-center
control-center-extras
control-center-filesystem
None of those seem to provide the file. can someone who has gstreamer-properties do a
Code:
rpm -f gstreamer-properties
and let me know what rpm provides that file ?
I'm trying to go through the ProLinga tutorial and it's calling for gnome-database-properties and my research says that it is in the libgnomedb packages. However, I can't find anyplace that has this package. Has it been removed from Fedora 13?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just installed Debian Lenny on my new laptop, I uninstall network-manager and install wicd but, it looks that wicd when it scans for networks doesn't find any networks and I don't understand why. I look over my sources.list and it looks ok, then I check the lspci command and my wifi card is detected by the kernel because is an Atheros card, also I install madwifi-tools.

The Wireless was working fin when it had Windows vista on it but when I installed Ubuntu 9.10 The wireless just seemed to not exist. The LED wouldnt even turn on. So I installed wicd and then the wireless icon began working but it still won't find any wireless networks.

View 14 Replies View RelatedThe laptop runs Debian Squeeze XFCE installed from the Live iso (uname -a gives 2.6.32-5-686 as the kernel) and has Wicd 1.7.0 for network management and uses the ipw2100 wifi firmware/drivers. It connects fine using WEP encryption at home and to unencrypted connections found in a couple of public areas. I have had one problem with a WEP encrypted connection in a cafe (got through encryption, but could not get an IP address. There are workarounds which I will try next time I have coffee there When changing my router to use WPA2, I get 'bad password' errors. There is quite a literature on 'bad password errors' and Wicd and kernel 2.6.32, however a lot of the pages are contradictory. The Wicd log showed this...
2011/06/07 17:25:59 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS ASSOCIATING

I'm fine using WEP at home, but I need to connect out and about as well and meet WPA2 connections in some locations
My university has a secure wireless network that has the following specs: WPA2, 1st Authentication TTLS, 2nd Authentication PAP, Encryption CCMP or AES, Thawte_Premium_Server_CA certificate and username and password.
I have never gotten this to work with wicd. First of all, wicd does not have a default template for this configuration. This led me in the past to quickly install Network-Manager (on top of XFCE...). While this has worked for me just fine. Recently I found out that this functionality is possible in wicd by creating your own template. So I did and here it is!
name = WPA2 Enterprise TTLS
author = Andres Cimmarusti
version = 1
[code]....
I did everything outlined here: [URL] (that is I saved the file as wpa2-ttls and then added this entry to the active file in /etc/wicd/encryption/templates/).
Sadly wicd's gui does not load my template!, the logs show no errors!...it simply refuses to take it. I cannot see any mistake in the above... do you?Is this some debian bug perhaps?This is the most important issue for me, before accepting to use wicd instead of NM.
I've been using wicd (1.6.2.1 was the latest version on my desktop computer, maybe it got updated) without any problems for a long time. This morning after switching the thing on to read the morning news with a nice hot cup of coffee I got a number of funny Gui system messages: Wicd needs to access your computer's network cards.

Could not connect to wicd's D-Bus interface - Check the wicd log for error messages.
I'v just installed wicd. I can't get it to sart, I get errors saying that wicd couldn't connect to it's dbus interface and the wicd deamon has shut down. Then there's a report from SELinux saying that it's preventing /usr/bin/python "write" access on /etc/dhcp/manager-settings.conf and that access is denied to wicd. I can get wicd to start if I su to root, but I'd like to not have to do that every time I boot. Is there a fix?

I'm trying to configure my new school wireless network (eduroam). Though it *should* work in wicd just fine, it doesn't, it fails with an error saying "failed to authentize". However it works with plain wpa_supplicant. Here's the working wpa_supplicant.conf:
[code].....
I don't see any option in the GUI configuration of wicd that is specified in wpa_supplicant.conf and not in the GUI, so it should generate a proper wpa_supplicant.conf.
Are there some more detailed wicd logs? Is there a way to give wicd the wpa_supplicant.conf part for this single essid and let it use the GUI generated one for the others? Where can I see the wpa_supplicant.conf it has generated for a connection?
I want to see what is the configuration of my Wind River Linux (actually I want to see what modules are installed in it when it was built). I can't find the configuration file.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have had Linux running in our product that has several serial ports.(Another Ethernet to Serial port translator). It has been running OK for about 6 years, using kernel 2.6.11, then 2.6.18. Now I just got 2.6.39.1 running and suddenly I get these "I/O Possible" messages and my programs shutdown. I found elsewhere that the cure for this is to put a "signal(SIGIO, SIG_IGN)" call to stop this signal from crashing the program. This works, but I would really like to know the reason that this started happening in the first place.
Could there possibly be a 'config' option I missed that causes this? It just surprises me that the kernel writers would implement something that has such a large impact on the existing code base, causing anyone using serial ports, or anything else that might trigger a SIGIO, to have to edit, recompile, and redistribute their programs.
How to change the kernel behavior, short of going in and hacking the kernel. Or at least an idea as to why they would have changed the default behavior.
This may be a noob question, but I can't find the option to set the computer to hibernate after a given idle time. In the Power options there is an option to suspend, but not to hibernate.
Is there other way to set the hibernation time?

I thought it was supposed to give me the choice to make a fresh install or upgrade, but there is no such thing that I can find. I have looked on the Opera Downloads page and on the Synaptic package manager page. Neither of them give me the option to upgrade, only a new install. I would like to keep my old preferences, passwords, etc. I need to upgrade to fix the problems with unresponsive flash players (....., etc.)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running Squeeze and I've been running into the r8169 hang problem (see [url]for example). A temporary (until the driver foibles in the kernel are resolved) solution that seems to be working for many people is passing the boot option "pcie_aspm=off" to the kernel.
Apparently, either I don't understand grub2 at all or my kernel doesn't like me very much. I put the option in grub.cfg like so:
However, it appears that the kernel, for whatever reason, is either not being given this boot option or it's not interpreting it correctly. When I run lspci -vv I get this for my r8169 ethernet card:
The relevant section is LnkCtl: ASPM L0s L1 Enabled; indicating that ASPM is still on.
