I've just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on an old PC to make it usable.After some research I was able to get my netgear usb wireless network adapter WG121 to work and connect to the network using ndiswrapper, although at startup I have to open a terminal and type Code: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper before it works. Is there a way to get this to automatically run?
View 2 Repliesi've patched the source files to be installed on f14 and finally got a succesfull install, ndiswrapper -l comes back with driver installed and presentwhen i run modprobe ndiswrapper i get "FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found" after many hours of google searching and reading various threads i cannont seem to find a solution to this apart from manualy coping the ndiswrapper.ko file but when i use that solution modprobe starts ndiswrapper but there is no wlan0 present in iwconfig.now for some reason even wheni move the ndiswrapper.ko file manually it still is giving me that error. this worked earlier as i mentioned but then i reinstalled ndiswrapper hoping something went wrong but still got the same error so i tried that same fix and i'm still getting that error. i can't figure out what i migt've done differently earlier but i'm not having any luck.

I received ndiswrapper utilities from "Synaptic Package Manager"
I was using jaunty jackelop before hand and the instructions worked perfectly but I decided to update to Karmic Koala 9.10 (I first installed the cloud enterprise version and realized that was way over my head).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with the fritz!wlan usb stick. I have installed itth success on another PC by using instructions published here Ndiswrapper - openSUSE.Today I have decided to erase WindowsXP from my wife's computer (that is an identical to the one I use). So I have downloaded the OpenSuse 11.2 DVD and I have performed a completely new installation from DVD.After installation has been executed with success, I have decided to install an internet connection using the istructions above. I told to myself: "it will take 5 minutes, all I must to do is to reply action I have done one month ago... the internet usb-stick is the same, so it will be easy to replicate the process..."I was wrong... When I reach the point where I must "modprobe" the ndiswrapper module I receive what follows:

Struggled a little to get Broadcom driver working with my Dell laptop. But I am at a point where if I manually type 'modprobe b43' the wireless works. If I reboot, it doesn't work automatically and I have to 'modprobe b43' again. Any ideas what I am missing here?I can't seem to figure out how to get this to work automatically. I did check to activate device when computer starts in network manager

I need (would like) to get the wireless running on my Lenovo q150. It uses the realtek 8191u chip for the wireless. I tried the steps in [URL]. But failed miserably. Now the Q150 will not boot. It locked up after the modprobe and I was forced to use the power switch. I was using a fresh install of maverick amd64.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI get the wireless working by executing
Code:
sudo modprobe b43
All good so far, but it's kinda tiring to execute that command every time I restart the computer, just to get internet access. Is there any way to make this command execute by it's own, when starting up the computer, like in the background or something. Or even better, to actually make b43 the default driver for the wireless. I've tried reinstalling both bcmwl, and b43, uninstalling bcmwl etc. But no luck.
To enable FDD in F13 I'm using "modprobe floppy" command which is placed inside "/etc/rc.d/rc.local".
Code:
[root@dc7100 rc.d]# cat rc.local
#!/bin/sh
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts. You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
modprobe floppy
In F14 this does not work any more. "modprobe floppy" is effective only when used on the CLI, but nothing happens when inside "/etc/rc.d/rc.local". Where should I place "modprobe floppy" now?
I was trying to compile and insert a module. The module compiles fine and creates tool.ko file(am compiling it from Desktop). Next when I try to use "insmod tool.ko" , it gives em this error: insmod: error inserting 'tool.ko': -1 Operation not permitted.I tried to use modprobe instead , thinking it might install the dependencies(if any) by itself: "modprobe -v tool.ko" but it gives me this error
FATAL: Module tool.ko not found
I went over some linux forum posts and tried to resolve it but no use.I copied all the files from Desktop to the /lib/modules/2.6.34.7-0.7-Desktop/build folder and then ran the commands but still face the same problem. Used this "/sbin/depmod -a " thinking it might update the modeprob.conf file, but no use !
I am running into a problem with a script I have to load the proper ethernet drivers on the script start, but the modprobe command fails.
I don't know exactly what it says but I believe it was something to the effect of "cannot find (x)." Which would be fine if it did it all of the time, but if I ctrl+c out of the script and attempt to do the command manually it works.
Anyone out there know what might be going on? I've been searching google and stackoverload and here and haven't come across anyone else having this issue.
Or better yet, is there a way to have a shell script implement a .rules file for a specific instance?
How do I properly load/install
alias scsi_hostadapter2 ahci

I have server 10.04 running, and I modified my fstab file to automatically mount an NTFS partition on startup, but after a reboot, I see that I clearly did something wrong, as now it will not boot. The output is:

I've got a problem when I try to use to load modules like when I try : modprobe tun It says : FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.32-4-pve/modules.dep: No such file or directory I've checked in my filesystem, the directory 2.6.32-4-pve doesn't exist, instead I have 2.6.39.2.110628 So how could I make modprobe look into the right directory ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using openSUSE 11.3 and i access internet through usb-stick.
Before inserting my usb-stick, i generally remove the usb-storage module driver by this command:
modprobe -r usb-storage
But after this command, i get an output saying that usb-storage is built in and cannot be removed.
Can anybody help me how to remove that module. It works well under ubuntu and Mandriva.
I have Fedora 2.6.29. When Im trying to laod a kernel module by using modprobe, its throwing an error message 'Module not found'. Also, when I use 'lssci' command to see the list of SCSI devices, this also doesn't work, and throws an error 'Command not found'.
However, I have used insmod to load my module and I am able to see its entry in /proc/scsi/scsi file, but why 'modprobe' and 'lssci' are not working. Is there any way to resolve this problem?

I may be missing a last crucial step while trying to use modprobe to install a module and make it active.The system is Debian (Mint LMDE flavor).The module is for a Realtek wlan driver. Since it appears to be available in the kernel, I chose to try and use it instead of getting into a work-around using ndiswrapper.Here is how I found it..

I am working on research using a USB wireless card (WUSB600N) which works by a driver from Ralink (rt3572). In order to achieve my task, I am trying to modify that driver. One of the ways, I tried to call a function written in different module from that which I am working in. Every thing went fine (make & make install) until the modprobe command when i got (Unknown Symbol) about that function. I tried many ways to solve that problem like; Export_Symbol, and function pointers but, with no results!

View 5 Replies View RelatedI took some pictures tonight and plugged in my flash card reader (via usb) as always. Only this time, the device isn't assigned a proper location (like "sdc3").
A little research later and I *think* I need the module "usb-storage", which I can't get to load. It's been a *long* time since I had to mess with modules and I'd like some fresh eyes on what the problem might be.

my brother's computer is pretty slow, but was working fine with ubuntu karmic, but I decided to finally upgrade him to lucid the other day, and recently his bootups take, at worst, 10 minutes,when in karmic it took way less. It just sits on a blank screen (not even a blinking cursor)
His pc's specs are:
1.4 Ghz processor (single core)
on-board graphics (no graphics card)
two hdd's one 80GB and one 150GB (the 150GB is split into 3 partitions)
465.7MB of ram 4.1GB of swap
I've attached his bootchart and it seems that Modprobe, Framebuffer, udevadm, and blkid are taking the most time to load, but I dont really know, i'm new to linux. Also how do i disable bootchart now that iv'e used it. p.s Heres he same bootchart just in case the one attached gets shrunk by ubuntuforums [URL]..
