I installed several desktops on my system to test them out recently. After that I did an update and the system proposed to autoremove some files that were not used anymore. Since then, I can't connect to the internet from any of my desktop environments. In GNOME, the wireless network applet completely disappeared, the same thing with KDE, so I'm thinking a system driver must have been deleted. Could you indicate me any file that I might need to download to repair this problem?
I can connect my wlan card to router (gateway) ,but I can't go to internet, pinging my router (and everything else) also falied. Same problem was with knoppix but with help of others i solved it modifing etc/reslove.conf IP address to my gateway (nameserver). At ubuntu resolve.conf seems ok, as there is already IP address of my gateway?
Brand new to the OpenSuse project. I'm have an old AMD Duron running 11.3 and I am having no luck in connecting to the www. I'm using a D-Link usb wireless adapter. I seem to have an IP address for the PC. here is the print from ifconfig:
Linux is what i'd like to learn, so Howdy to all and i hope to speak to you all regularly in short, I started with Ubuntu Linux about 6 months ago, Didn't like it, i researched various distro's and came across, PC Linux OS, it was really cool, But i couldn't get it to connect Wirelessly, so i tried something else... the bottom line is i finally settled on SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11, i seem to like it a lot.Ok.. now that introductions are out of the way
Background info: I've installed SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 on my Sony Vaio Laptop (VGN-NW15G) with no major issues, after a bit of mucking around, i got the LAN to Connect to the internet, after some more mucking around, i figured out how to get the WLAN to connect to the internet.MY Goal: To be able to Wirelessly Network my Laptop with My PC.so that i can access the files on the PC, From my laptop, and Vice Versa, but the important thing is to first be able to access the PC files from the Laptop.
NOTE: My PC has 4 Hard Drives (1 for the O/s, 3 Backups) they are all configured and Shared correctly for Networking and Wireless networking, and all the permissions are set correctly.Hardware and Software Environments:My Laptop : Sony Vaio VGN-NW15GOperating System : SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11Wireless Capable, and has no issues Wireless Networking when running of a Hard Drive Loaded with Win 7 Ultimate 32bit, Therefore all Hardware is Compatible
My PC (Custom Built) Operating System : Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit SP1 Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-X58-UD3R Rev1.0
My problem with UBUNTU is that I can not use acer-wmi because I get this ERROR :
Code:
... so I can not use the acer_wmi . But this is not my only Problem :
It is most likely caused of the missing " Firmware " / Driver for my WLAN Card ( Internal ) . Currently I use Ubuntu 10.10 but I tested 10.04 too before 10.10 and it found my Card but not the Button .
So I want to know if there is any solution for my problem .
If it is important :
I use an Acer eMachines e525 with Windows Vista Home Basic ( Pimped up ) and Wubi . I saw a lot of people with simmilar problems they have it as only boot option .
After updating to kubuntu 11.04 natty, I have a problem with my internet-connection. The problem happens when I use VoIP-Software like Skype or Twinkle and also when using ktorrent.
When using the mentioned software, after 30-90 seconds the internet gets very slow. In f.e. skype, I can hear the one I phoned very badly.
I use kubuntu on a desktop-PC with a Linksys USB-Wlan-Stick. Detailed information is below.
Code: uname -a Linux pr1-desktop 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:24 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
recently ran into a problem with my internet access. Im using open suse 11.2 on a Dell Vostro 1520 laptop. I managed to get my wlan running and i can use firefox to access my router. In my router the laptop is also showing as connnected, dhcp reserved an ip for it.However if i try to browse the internet, no page is loading, actually no software that needs access to the web is working.
I dual boot windows xp and ubuntu 10.04 LTS and the wireless card works perfectly fine in xp so I know its not a hardware/network issue. In ubuntu, it detects wireless networks, will connect to network and work for about 20 seconds.
[Code]....
and it continues on after this alternating between a normal 20ms and high ping over 200ms. The connection refuses to load anything off the internet/local network.
yesterday I installed pulseaudio and pavumeter. This morning I couldn't connect to the internet anymore. I checked the settings but couldn't see any changes. I read the post at [URL]?t=370108 and I'm going to post the outcome of the instructions here:
There is no wlan0 interface when trying to run FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick N 2.4 on OpenSuSE 11.2, though it works fine on Fedora 11 and Mandriva Spring 2009.1. All 64bit. Contrary to Fedora and Mandriva, there is no need to compile the compat-wireless module ar9170usb for OpenSuSE 11.2 because the kernel is very recent and includes this driver. Kernel: 2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop The /var/log/messages gives this after I put the stick in the PC. At first it is seen as a mass storage device:

my netbook doesn't see my HomeWlan, but like every other int he neighborhood. I am using a live-usb atm because i want to check if everything works out bevor i completely install ubuntu.
Details: I want to use my home-WLAN but Ubuntu doesn't see it, which is quite fascinating because it does see a bunch of other which belong to the neighbors. The second quite interesting part is that when i switch to windows i can connect without any problems (and yes it does see it as well). Any clues what might cause that behavior? My only guess is that the adapter broadcasts on a false Channel, but i aint sure about that. I entered "sudo iwlist chan" and the output is:
Code: lo no frequency information eth0 no frequency information eth1 14 channels in total; available frequencies : //bunch of frequencies current channel 1
So i guess my adapter broadcasts on channel 1, but my router does on channel 6 (I am sure about that part). But when i tried to "fix" it with "iwconfig eth1 channel 6" and then i check the channels again, it is still on the same on (Channel 1). Well, i do have a second guess but this one seems even more unrealistic than the first one, it might be possible that my adapter isn't strong enough to get the signal, even though there are just like 2 1/2 Walls between. But this scenario is really unlikely because my netbook is getting so much other signals.
At my workplace the wireless connection is open but once you connect you first need to authenticate on your browser to be able to use the internet.On Windows as soon as I open whatever page I get the login request.On Linux I open firefox but nothing happens, just get the usual error page like if I had no connection. The IP's I get as well as DNS seem ok, I even tryed to match them up with windows.I tried a lot but can't get to the login page.
in my work computer i put ubuntu, i had to install the version8.4 then i had to upgrade one by one to 9.10 because the computer was not able to detect it via a usb live instalation. in my wlan signal when i had 8.4 it had the 4 stripes that mean the signal was like 90% but every time i upgraded the signal became weaker, and now that i upgraded to 9.10 the signal is 14% it takes forever to DL the updates and aplications. and the connection is 2mbps
i have a really old laptop a toshiba sa30-3-3 with 512 in ram and a pentium 4 a3.06ghz.
does anybody have an idea of whats going on and how to get ti fixed.
specific Ubuntu supported WLAN PCI-cards? This link shows a list of supported PCI-cards, but which is best: [URL] And the installation needs to be easy! I�ve tried installing these PCI-cards in my computer, useing Linux drivers, NdisWrapper, etc. Unforutately without any success:
- DWL-G510, Ralink Chipset, Ralink RT2561/RT61
- Realtek Semiconductor, RTL-8185 IEEE 802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN Controller
I remember a few months ago I attempted to install Ubuntu 10.04 on my Dell laptop however the Dell 1397 internal card wasn't recognized which was a huge problem. I posted here & nobody responded. Now before I try and install 10.10 on my laptop, is there a way I can verify that my WLAN card will be recognized by the kernel or is it the same thing as 10.04?
I've decided to try out Ubuntu again on my Samsung netbook. I tried 9.10 before and a lot of things didn't work so I gave up, but that was quite a long time ago and I wanted to see if the new one will work.
I booted 10.10 off the USB stick, don't want to zap my Windows 7 installation if Ubuntu doesn't work. Everything seems to run fine, the webcam works, wireless seems to work, it shows the networks in the range and allows me to pick the one I want to connect to.
Sounds good so far, but when I try to connect to my WLAN and put in my password it thinks about it for a while and just pops the password again. It can't seem to connect to the network even though it sees it and the password is correct. I triple checked the password, it's definitely correct.
I can only assume there's something wrong with ubuntu and the driver. I have a Samsung N140 netbook which uses Realtek 8192E chipset.
Today I upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04. After accidentally turning off the computer during the upgrade, booting into recovery mode, remounting the file system as writable and finishing the upgrade, it worked just fine.
However, I can no longer use any wireless networks. Wired ethernet works fine, but the wireless inteface won't even show up when I run ifconfig. When I first installed 10.10, it worked instantly and I was able to use it during installation.
I have an HP Compaq nx7300 laptop with a Broadcom BCM4311 network card.
I installed 11.04 to ASUS Z9200 Notebook, at first all was fine at least 10 minutes, LAN, WLAN worked ok, but suddenly all is gone, restarted few times -nothing. reintall-nothing...here is some info....any ideas?
I am connected to my wireless router (wlan0) i'm also connected to my laptop via cable (eth0) wlan0 has the internet connection, if i disconnect eth0 i can browse internet but if it's connected, i cant eth0 has manual address: 192.168.0.7 wlan: auto (right now:182.168.0.255)
I have a Fujitsu Siemans AMILO Li 2727 and have tried and like Linux Ubuntu. My problem is I have an internal ariel that switches off when you power down. It has to be manually switched on by pressing function F1. I can't get this to work in Linux - I want to be able to use my laptop with my wireless router again.
I have a Thinkpad T400 notebook that dual boots windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.04. My wireless has worked both in windows and ubuntu for the past several months. However 2 days ago, the wireless in ubuntu stopped working. I think this may be a result of trying to set up a static eth0 connection between my laptop and an embedded board, but I dont see how messing with eth0 would stop the wlan from working.
Symptoms: When I left click on the network connections icon in the tray, all it lists under "Wireless networks" is "device not ready". Needless to say, there are no networks available to connect to. Also the wireless is working fine under windows.
I have bought a new laptop with win7 on it , I delete win7 and install ubuntu64 everything is ok but my wireless card won't work ( it is recognized) and even I can connect to INTERNET but nothing is download or upload so I have bought another usb wireless card but now when I connect this new card to my laptop it still tries to use the old one and so I could not connect to internet
I am trying to connect to a WEP encrypted WLAN without using the DHCP server of the AP. (=giving myself a static IP)
So far i have tried:
Code:
But i cant even ping 192.168.1.1 (Network unreachable error). Is it possible that Ubuntu tries to use eth0 (which was connected to a similar /16 before) to ping 192.168.1.1 or is there somethign wrong with my commands?
Also will an AP allow access to the network although i don't have an IP from its DHCP server?
All I want to do is share my internet connection that comes through the eth0 cable to my wlan0 wiki card. Firestarter seems the convenient tool for doing this. BUT it keeps telling me wlan0 not ready. The card is connected correctly and network-manager does see incoming signals.
I have installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my intel macbook. It won't ever find any wifi internet connections. It will connect with an ethernet fine but none of the wireless connections will show up.
I'm a new user of Ubuntu and I think I need some help but let me mention before that I got this up working on a Debian system.My current kernel version is $ uname -r 2.6.32-27-generic.The problem is that my wlan card is not working any more such that my system freezes every time I enable networking with the hardware switch on my laptop.Therefore I bought a USB - WLAN stick and try to get this working.
Network Manager has the option "enable wireless" greyed out if I disable the hardware switch.If I enable the hardware switch and remove the module of my wlan CARD before (modprobe -r iwl3945) it says "wireless disconnected" for all networks.
I am very new to Ubuntu and I need some help. My HP Pavillion WLAN light constantly blinks as it recieves data on the internet and I learned that I have to create and save a file: "sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/wlan.conf" and then paste the following at the end: "#1 means do not blink options iwlcore led_mode=1" but when I try to save it asks me for my sudo password which I don't have and it does not even register any key I press. It just blinks but does not acccept any key. Also how do you save the file in terminal?
anybody out there with an idea for a command to make the WLAN-Printer (HP-Officejet)work again when it stops after 30 Min - 2 h.Simple stopping the print job and print again does not help. The only way for me is to stop the print job and RESTART. Then it works again 30 Min- 2 h. I use updatet lucid lynx 32.
And I need a command like "killall pulseaudio" that I need when I return from logged-on as the second user to get sound again.
