Ubuntu Networking :: RT3090 Wirelss Driver Not In Use On Boot Up?
Jan 26, 2010
I have an MSI600 laptop with the Ralink RT3090 wireless chipset in it. Ubuntu 9.10 would not recognise this in the base install. I tried the NDISWrapper approach which seemed to yield no results so have since downloaded and installed Markus Herberling's driver from https://launchpad.net/~markus-tisoft/+archive/rt3090Thisorks but only if I first Deactivate the driver and then activate it again in the hardware drivers gui

Just posting this so others can find the solution more easily than I did.My HP ProBook 4520s had a blinking/flashing wireless indicator LED and the connection was unstable. The solution was to blacklist the rt2800pci drivers. This leaves the rt2860sta drivers, which work fine for me (so far). The device is actually a RaLink RT3090 and apparently they release drivers on their web site, but I did not want to go through the trouble of building it and did not find it packaged for 10.10.To try this fix, open up the blacklist file.
Code:
gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
And add this line at the end...

I just install Ubuntu 10.04 on my EeePC and I'm loving it. the only problem is I can only get wired internet. I was going around the help but I couldn't find my problem. others also have had the same problem as me. here's all the information I think you'll need:
OS: Ubuntu Desktop 10.04
Model: EeePC 1001HA
Wireless Card: RT3090
Lshw Output:
*-network DISABLED
[Code]...
NOTE: I cut out alot of the outputs because the didn't appear useful (like my USB devices etc.)
NOTE2:any commands you want me to run just let me know (BTW I wont run stuff like mkfs... I'm not that new)
NOTE3:Ubuntu Desktop works quite well on a EeePC actually. EDIT: vBulletin wont let me have multiple spaces! I'll replace them with dashed in the lsmod output.

New Toshiba laptop dual booting with Windows 7. I really like MM 10.10 and most things are working great! Periodically I will be web browsing and I lose connection. At first I thought it was Firefox but if I try to disconnect wireless and reconnect it will no longer connect unless I reboot. My network is hidden but Ubuntu finds it no problem on a fresh boot and connects per my settings and it is not a network problem since I can connect to Windows all day long and the rest of the family never has problems.
My wirless device is: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8191SEvB Wireless LAN Controller (rev 10)n and all OS updates are applied that I can find. I am thinking about un-hidding my network since years ago that used to be a problem with Redhat and even early Ubuntu but beyond that I cannot think of what else to try.

I upgraded today from 8.04 to 10.04 using the update manager. I'd never done it this way before, always just reinstalled, but everything worked fantastically, except for this anomoly.
Wireless was working faultlessly in 8.04. After the upgrade, cable works fine and lspci gives me this:
Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
So the system can still see the card. But have a look at this:
Code:
... and this:
Code:
So, using Network Manager (wicd no diff), running exactly the static IPs I had before but nothing. Doesn't see any access points, not just mine.

I'm starting a new thread, because the one I started a few months ago does not appear to be getting any responses. To see the previous thread: [URL] I've come a bit further than then. The chat script now has the AT_OPSYS command removed as a result of my experiments talking to the card directly with screen /dev/umts. The script /etc/ppp/peers/eplus now looks like this:
Quote:
-detach
/dev/umts
460800
debug
[code]....
what so ever what in the blue blazes causes my card to hang up as soon as a connection is made?

I need to make a wirelss Hot Spot at our small hotel in Italy. I am already doing it, however I have no way of logging my customers. As per the new laws here in Italy, I must secure my wi-fi and keep a log/database of all that enter. I have found some units that will cost me about a 1000euro to purchase, but I am providing this to my customers for free, so if I can do this by using one of my extra/old computers running linux, that would be ideal.
I did a general search for these terms: "wireless access point hot spot firewall" but there were zero results, which I thought was strange.

I have installed CentOS 5 just downloaded yesterday on a Dell D620. Everything but the wireless card works. So I found this article:
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom
and followed it step by step and was able to complete all of the tasks. The problem is that obviously it still won't start. It is not even recognized as an adapter but when I run lspci -v it is there sure enough. When I look under the networking GUI it is listed there but it has no MAC assigned to it. Please let me know what command output you need to see and I'll get here asap. I have searched this forum and other sites and nothing so far has worked.

I recently installed CentOS 5.5 on a Acer Revo with RaLink RT3090 wireless card (RaLink RT3090 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe). Everything works great except for the wireless card. I've looked at the ELRepo repository, but there is no support for this particular driver. Has anyone had any success with this card or am I stuck with no wireless.

I have Ubuntu 10.10 on a Toshiba satellite L300 with an Atheros AR5001 wireless network card. I can get the computer to see the network but it wont persist, it keeps going offline or asking to be re connected.Also Firefox will not find the internet even if the wireless icon shows the wireless network is alive.I can use the laptop for the internet if I plug in the LAN cable but have no luck with the wireless. Security for the modem is using WPA&WPA2 and it will connect according to the icon in the title bar for the wireless network.
I have tried the Atheros site for a driver but had no luck finding one. Not even sure if that is what I need to do.

So I have recently been making attempts at setting up my RTL8192SU chipset usb wifi. After struggling to set it up by following the steps on this link: [URL]../url?sa=t&jUyXQukrfIw After doing this I had no idea what it was supposed to look like but It did display several warnings along the lines of "warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size" I continued following steps as another error occurred "cp cannot stat autoconf.rtl8712_usb_linux.h" I then entered sudo modprobe 8712u and my screen went black i was forced shut down . Upon rebooting I found it also would lock up if my usb device was plugged in It will boot with it unplugged but as soon as it is plugged in again it will lock up my system and send it to a black screen.

It has been haunting me for weeks and I haven't been able to fix it so far: When I installed the wireless driver 43XX series on my laptop using a wired internet, I saw the wireless network for a while and after I rebooted my system, My kernel(31) got corrupted and I got error "kernel Panic (and some sync error)",Thus I started using an older kernel(14),Now When I install wireless driver or mobile broadband driver(wvdial), they get vanished after the reboot and my mobile device modem isn't detected.But they are installed in my system(as shown by synaptic package manager but doesn't seemt to work) I desperately want to use mobile broadband.

How To: Uninstall/Remove Old Wireless Driver to make way for New Driver (RTL8191SE)?
Here's the new driver:
I have been having trouble with my wireless connection intermittently disconnecting and reconnecting repeatedly (sometimes every couple of seconds). I posted a thread about this here on Ubuntu Forums titled: Ubuntu 10.45 & NetworkManager Applet 8.0: Connects & Disconnects Frequently.

I couldn't find a place to post Cent OS questions so don't bite if this is in the wrong place
I have a KeySonic 2.4Ghz Wireless Keyboard with Integrated TouchPad which I am trying to get to work.
Now there are some reviews saying it works straight out the box on Linux. This was almost the case for me.
The keyboard works straight away but the touch pad doesn't work at all not even the mouse buttons
I am running CentOS release 5.3 (Final) Kernel 2.6.18-128.el5
I would really appreciate any advice at all, I have checked the output of: cat /proc/bus/input/devices
Which gives:

I tried to install some v. 260 driver from Nvidia's website to see if it would work better than the one in additional drivers. Then, in virtual terminal, I hit ctrl-alt-f7 and there was just a _ in a terminal. I forced shutdown and tried to restart with my windoze heritage. It just displayed the Ubuntu symbol with the duots under it. I then went in to recovery mode and root with networking and updated xorg.conf(I think I did that, anyway..) Now when trying to boot, I see * starting load fallback devices [fail

Here is my problem: In short, it takes forever (6 min), and lots of prodding to get Ubuntu to boot. Im running a Toshiba NB305 netbook (Bios 1.40), set up for dual boot with 10.04 UNR. Windows partitions boot fine. Can boot 10.04 from USB stick.
Here how I try to boot: From grub menu select "Ubuntu, with Linux 2.6.32-22-generic" If it doesn't work, I run the recovery version, and then run the regular one again. Somehow that resets stuff.

I'm in the live CD right now trying to figure out what to do. When I first got into Ubuntu, it asked me to install nVidia drivers, so I did. Afterwards, it said I needed to restart my computer to finish installation, but when upon getting past the bootloader, my screen hangs on "Assuming drive cache: write through". I found this post: [URL] but the terminal commands didn't help and I can't find /etc/xorg.cfg even if I show hidden files. I've added a picture of the screen I get when I try to boot up, so maybe someone can tell me what to do to get back into Ubuntu. I would like to be able to get back without having to reinstall, if possible.

I've installed proprietary drivers from ATI (downloaded from the site of AMD) and then I uninstalled them simply by launching the script fglrx-uninstall.sh located in /usr/share/ati/. After reboot the system hang at the loading stage! I can't imagine to reinstall all my system from the start!

I have recently installed ubuntu desktop i386 10.10 on my laptop (Saony vaio VPCF137HG) as a dual boot. When it first started it worked perfectly, but when I installed the nvidia driver (For a nvidia Geforce 425M GPU) it came to the purple screen (Pic of screen) and no further. It doesn't respond to any commands and would not go any further, even after 40 mins!

i was trying to uninstall old nvidia driver and install new driver via terminal. i used these commands (sudo dpkg -p nvidia -173; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove) and then this is the one that froze up on me (sudo apt-get install nvidia-current)computer froze while installing the new driver. now i cant boot up ubuntu 11.04. i get the grub menu but cant boot OS. i cant get recovery mode to boot either. it stops after it reads my dvd drive. i dont remember exactly what i did to get this message but i got a message that says alloc magic is broken at 0xb7ce5c80. im assuming that i have no graphics card driver installed and this is why i cant boot. is there anyway to boot from a live cd and manually install the graphics card driver? im on a dual boot with win7 and upgraded from ubuntu 10.10 so i dont really want to do a clean install and have to install tons of software etc.

This is my first day with Umbuntu and my first post here at the forums. I bought a Dell Pentium 4 with a fresh install of Umbuntu 9.10 on it. Worked well until I decided to do something a newbie shouldn't do and install a graphics card and drivers. The graphics card worked just fine until the drivers were installed and I tried to reboot the system. Now it no longer boots. Some specifics for you.
Since my time with Ubuntu is limited to hours, the nomenclature will probably be wrong. But I will try to get the point across. The card is a EVGA GeForce FX 5700 Ultra. On first start up with this card the computer functioned fine. I went to a place where you could change the screen options. There were three selections and I don't remember the names (idiot that I am). I selected the middle one. The OS stated that in order to utilize all the capabilities of nvidia graphics cards blah, blah, blah, a driver would need to be downloaded and activated. No name, just a driver. OK, do it (sounds kinda windows like). The download seemed to go OK, but now I needed to reboot to activate the driver.
Now: Ubuntu logo comes up. Screen goes to a text screen that says:
Ubuntu 9.10 dave-ubuntu tty1
dave-ubuntu login:
This screen flashes and does not take input from the keyboard or mouse. Next, I removed the graphics card and used the on-board graphics. Same result with faster flashing. What have I done? Apparently Ubuntu and Linux in general don't have a system recovery option? I read something about the GRUB menu, but the system flasher GRUB loading for half a second and then is on to locking up. I can't seem to get to a GRUB menu. What a way to finish the day.

I'm running Lucid (all updates) with an ATI Radeon 3100 video ini a Toshiba Laptop.
I was troubleshooting a problem with XBMC, and tried disableing the propriatary ATI driver. Now ubuntu will not boot. I've tried recovery mode, and it gets to:

And nothing else. I've tried CTRL-ALT-F1 and BACKSPACE, and nothing happens. I know that I just need to re-enable to ATI driver, or possible reconfigure X, but I can't figure out how at this point.

I updated my server via SSH from another computer. I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 on my old laptop. I updated it at the 1/3. But now i experience problems! Since the update there where Radeon driver updates which made Ubuntu not to load X. [URL] You can see the update @ 1/3. The computer is a HP 6715s. As I can remember there is a Radeon X1250 in the computer. How can I get the old version working again without reinstalling?

I have install Ubuntu 10.10 64bit in my sony vaio vpccw16fs which have Nvidia graphics card (GT 230M). I have install it using nomodeset and after entering the system I installed nvidia from System> Administration> Additional drivers. Driver version was current 260.19.06. After installation I was able to see the boot screen but was unable to see the logon screen. The computer froze with the background color of bootscreen which is purple. And I have to restart it and have to choose failsafe graphic mode. And after logging in in failsafe graphic mode. My NVidia driver says I am not using it. How to use nvidia driver properly. I have tried many Tutorials present on internet but none of them works.
Here is my xorg.conf file.
