When I try to connect to my wireless network I get the following error
"wap supplicant association request to the driver failed"
I see the adapter connect to my router and I even get a signal strength thats pretty good. But the connection times out and starts all over again. It will connect for 10-15 seconds with no connectivity and the drop. What can I do to allow the connection?
I have already done the following
changed the wifi broadcast to g/b mixed (it was n/g mixed)changed the wpa2 cipher to tkip only
I am running 11.04
*****edit*****
I could not get my adapter to connect at all. With the help of another user who had the same issue we could not get it working. So I installed 10.04.2 LTS and installed the driver. I no longer get the WPA_supplicant error, now it just times out. what can I do to get wifi? this seems quite ridiculous just to have a network connection...
I am trying to enable wpa2 aes encryption on fedora. The wifi access was working fine with WEP and system-config-network but recently somebody hacked into my network and I had to switch back to wpa2 aes encryption. Looking at previous posts, I can see that a lot of people have used wpa supplicant and ndiswrapper to enable this. A post from 2006 even explains how to enable this: [URL]?t=93054 Using Add/Remove software, I have installed wpa_gui and ndiswrapper kernel module, but it doesn't work. I don't see my wlan0 in wpa_gui.
In the process of making the jump from Ubuntu to Fedora and some of the file placement is catching me. Under Debian, I knew how to setup wireless from boot using /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/wpa_supplicant. Now, I know F12 uses /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf, but I can't seem to follow the details. Can I use the same commands issued in /etc/network/interfaces in the appropriate /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts file? Can I, basically, copy my /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf?
Recently my wireless stopped working on my Debian testing system. It just doesn't connect. The best I get (only after a reboot) is that it says it did connect, but failed to get IP address. But usually it just tries to connect, disconnects straight away, connects again etc. so it never manages to associate correctly.
I am sure it did work about a month ago, stopped working after recent upgrades from the repository.
I have been battling with FreeRadius with LDAP backend and Microsofts built-in supplicant. I found on some directions that the certificate you use have to have a EKU(Enhanced Key Usage) with an ODI of 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1 and a Client side Cert with the same except a ODI of 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2. First off, is this still the case in Windows 7/xp?If it is, how do I add that to a certificate with OpenSSL, FYI I am using the ca.cnf/server.cnf under the /etc/raddb/certs directory.Another question, has anyone got the MS Supplicant to work with Freeradius and a LDAP backend? If so can you point me in the direction of some good walk through?
I would like to disable auto loading of network manager/wpa supplicant in my FC13 system. I am not interested in just stopping the service (/etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop) from user lever. Is there any kernel configuration which can serve the purpose. If there is a way to stop notifying user level about new network interface, please let me know.
Hi. I have Ubuntu 10.04, nm-applet is running in the background, my battery icon and sound icon are showing but my network icon has been missing for the past 2 days. It was working fine before but now it's not. How can I fix this issue if I don't have an ethernet cord? Is there a way to roll back the recent updates or do I need to reinstall my network manager?
I've tried restarting the system and I've tried killing nm-applet and reloading it using Alt F2. I get some Debug error.
When I try to run nm-applet --sm-disable
It says an instance is already running and then gives me a warning.
I tried removing "iface eth0 inet dhcp" from /etc/network/interfaces and then tried restarting by "sudo /etc/initi.d/networking restart"
It says:
What can I do to connect to the internet? I have a flash stick if its possible to download a .deb package on this mac and transfer it over to my other laptop to fix the problem. If its possible.
when i upgraded to slackware-current few days ago i tried to create packages with src2pkg and i get this:
Checking for Makefile rule: 'install' Okay Checking support for DESTDIR (or similar) - Found DESTDIR Installing using DESTDIR - Using: make DESTDIR=/tmp/xf86-video-intel-2.10.901-i486-1 install Notice - Possible error running 'make install' FATAL! Running make install has failed with error: 1 Try using INSTALL_LINE 'make -i install' Exiting...
is it because of i have slackware 32bits i installed src2pkg successfully on slackware 13 but on slackware-current if i remove it and do src2pkg --setup i get error something like cannot live without it every time. when wanting to create src2pkg-helpers.
but i want to know what im doing wrong ?
before i created packages successfully. i execute src2pkg as root
when I run synaptic I can open the list of apps. and select but then I apply to download and get "error we failed to fetch etc etc." Seems to be an rpm problem but not sure. ????
I am learning Linux and I am documenting procedures for troubleshooting for any disk related issues and I would like to know the procedure to replace a Failed hard drive running Redhat 5.1 running LVM2.
Is growing raid 6 in 5.3 centos possible? I'm getting errors when i run mdadm in --grow mode failed : 'mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -n 5 2>&1' -> mdadm: Cannot set device size/shape for /dev/md0: Invalid argument Do i have to create a custom kernel for centos?
I got this error for two days.back then I googled this error and i got some information about log file in /var/log/syslog but i couldn't find it in google at all. this is all i got from syslog . look at the red paragraph
I needed to load Linux on a Samsung Q1Ex for a project I'm contracting on, and could not for the life of me get anything to run. Turns out that the video card is a chrome relative, and for some reason, almost every distro out there (I usually use debian for this sort of project - ie, no money, but use SLES at my day job) failed to even get to textmode console. Trying several distros, I finally put it out there and used OpenSuse and voila!, vga was working. After that, I got X running, and many hours later had the mouse working. The key to this device is Windows. I ended up parsing through the registry looking for "touch" and found that the software in use on Windows is eGalaxTouch. A quick google brought up their site where I found several Linux drivers. I used the beta mode drivers to get the mouse working. Here is a more detailed breakdown.
Use OpenSuse 11.3 (I used the full blown disc - its is the only distro I could get to boot correctly as the others all used OpenChrome, while OpenSuse seems to use fbdev - note here that installing the unichrome drivers will actually break X and cause you to have to reboot to get away from the mess on the screen). Use eGalaxyTouch drivers. The pdf's included in the download have step-by-step instructions but the big pieces are the setup.sh script and the serio_raw steps (note if you perform a 'hwinfo --bios | more' you can figure out which /dev/input/event* you're using - for me it was event1 and serio4). Note also to choose PS/2 when executing the setup.sh script provided in their download. eGalax_eMPIA Technology Inc. TouchKit Linux Driver Here is my xorg.conf now:
On the video, just stay with the fbdev and you should be good. So far, I've had KDE, Gnome, TWM all running; and now have my EFL apps running! Woohoo! Next piece of the puzzle is to verify sound, but on the face of it, looks like the system recognized it off the bat. And of course one other note. 11.3 is going to make me a convert!
I'm getting these messages Over SSH with the -D switch
Code:
At uni I did this for a couple of reasons, primarily to connect to trackers for bittorrent. I would get these messages fairly often but I never thought much of it because I figured I was just loosing packets over the network or something (understandable in my situation). At home I decided to continue to use this method because that computer is set up in DMZ and is very useful. I havn't received many of these messages but recently all my torrents stalled and I had a whole bunch of these messages. Is it possible my computer just cant handle all the network connections (it's a 2ghz AMD running debian)? What exactly do these messages mean? Is there any way to optimize my connection in any way?
I had the elrepo kmod-r8168 driver running smooth for a while on my development box. Yesterday, I did a clean install on it and when I tried to install the latest kmod-r8168 rpm, it failed to enable the networking support:
# yum --enablerepo=elrepo install kmod-r8168
The install performed all proper steps to disable the 8169 driver, I double checked to be sure.This is not a connectivity issue. If I remove the kmod-r8168 rpm, reboot the server and run the ifconfig eth0 up to activate the interface, everything works as expected. I use the latest kernel (2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 x86_64).
First, I performed a clean install, activated the eth0 and did a yum update, then installed the kmod-r8168 with yum. Then, I reinstalled the OS again, activated the eth0 and installed the kmod-r8168 on a 5.5 CD based kernel, same fail results. The only hiccup is: every time I start the box, I have to activate the eth0 interface (with default CentOS 8169 driver):
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.3 # ping -c 3 192.168.1.1 (no packets lost) # ifconfig eth0 up
I setup a PPTP VPN connection in ubuntu 9.10 (x86_64) using NetworkManager. After enabling the VPN connection, I can browse web pages (it's perfect) but after a while the vpn connection is terminated! The following is my syslog after connecting and terminating:
Code: Mar 12 22:10:10 amir-desktop NetworkManager: <info> Starting VPN service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.pptp'... Mar 12 22:10:10 amir-desktop NetworkManager: <info> VPN service 'org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.pptp' started (org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.pptp), PID 2204
Why is it that the darn printer keeps breaking on this thing (Ubuntu) ??? It's either every damn update that keeps messing this up. One computer is bad enough, I can't imagine having to take care of even five with this thing always screwing something up. What the hell is going on??? Yeah I'm tired of this thing always messing up the printer. Please fix this thing, separate the browsers if you have to, do whatever it takes, but please STOP messing up the printers...and I don't even print that often.Oh yeah, when you first start the OS up, the drive seems to go on for a while longer now. I only put the regular updates and don't tweak anything.
Just completed the upgrade to 10.04 from 8.04, and ironing out the wrinkles. Since the upgrade, I'm not able to establish a VPN connection to my institute (a problem since outgoing mail REQUIRES a VPN connection) The pull down menu shows the connection as an option, but clicking on it brings up a separate window that simply says "The VPN connection CfA failed because the VPN Service failed to start." Never had this issue under Hardy, so not sure what's going on. Under "Configure VPN" the settings look the same as they always did.
I have been used NX client on windows 7 connected to ubuntu with NX client/node/server with no issues. The matter started when I have formatted Ubuntu and reinstalled NX, from that NX connects but shows a key error as follows:

I recently setup ubuntu 9.10 in my desktop..I don't know whether the connection is dialup or not. I used the connection with cable connection. I have got the following information from my ISP:
User name: n372_asad_go@brisksys.net service name: brisknb password: 16251521
I've been having an issue ever since I recently installed Ubuntu 10.10. It won't connect to my network for some reason. I enter the WEP key and all the other info, but it fails to connect. I tried to install the Broadcom STA Driver under Additional Drivers but then I get an error message saying SystemError: installArchives()failed.
A while ago i attempted to use ubuntu as my default operating system and it failed, i could not get the shares to work properly and i gave up. Yes i know, may be i should have kept going.
Any way, my problem is, Im attempting to use ubuntu 11.04 now, and this time i am realy keen on going through with this, however... for some reason when i connect my wired connection cable ubuntu keeps failing to connect. this is with the auto eth0.
Can any one help me with this problem? This is one of the major things that i will need to do if i want to switch over to ubuntu.
