Debian Hardware :: IMac G3 Internet Not Working?

Feb 17, 2011

I'm trying to get my iMac G3 on the internet. I'm running Lenny. I have two options: I could (ideally) get the ethernet to work, or else I could use my phone (Palm Pre Plus) as a modem, which I've done under Ubuntu (the GNOME applet makes it a snap, but I can't figure out what it's doing on the command-line side of things).

Relevant line from lspci:
ryan@dinosaur:~$ lspci
...
0002:20:0f.0 Ethernet controller: Apple Computer Inc. UniNorth GMAC (Sun GEM) (rev ff)

Relevant line from lsusb:
ryan@dinosaur:~$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0830:0101 Palm, Inc.
...

ifconfig lists only the local loopback and nothing else.I've googled and googled and googled for drivers but can't seem to find any--same for getting the Pre to work as a modem. Like I said, I can get the Pre working flawlessly under Ubuntu but I can't find no matter how much I search the proper way to connect it using Linux.

Ubuntu / Apple :: Broadcom 4312 IMac 4,1 Wireless Not Working.

Jun 23, 2010

When I first had partitioned, and formatted appropriately, I installed the newest version of Ubuntu available (Time of posting 10.4), on the partition made with bootcamp, rebooted into Linux with rEFIt Now once I booted into 10.4 I got to the desktop, it started asking me about restricted hardware drivers, so I went into System > Administration > Hardware Drivers, It then searched for the drivers, it found the STA driver, and the B43 driver, I am unable to allow both. So I went on to try ndiswrapper, I downloaded it off another pc, compiled and installed on the iMac. then I got the driver off the Leopard install disk, put that on my flash drive, extracted the files from the installer, put that on the flash drive, then I went back over to the machine in question, copied the file to the desktop, I used the cd command to navigate to the folder, then ran ndiswrapper -i bmcwl6.inf, I made sure that the inf and sys files were in there, so I didn't know what was going on exactly.

So then I went into the software sources, and enabled the cd as a software source, then went into Synaptic, and installed the drivers, it said the install was successful, however when I go back to enable it, will still refuse to activate, I have looked all around for solutions, I have even checked out other threads on this matter. The funny thing seems to be, is that everyone, or almost everyone who has this card on their computer, are upgrading to 10.04, when it worked on a previous version.

Ubuntu Networking :: Enabling Non-internet LAN Makes Internet Over Wireless Stop Working

Sep 1, 2010

I am trying to connect my desktop to my laptop over a non-internet connected LAN, but when i enable the LAN connection on my desktop (the one with the wireless) its internet stops working.

it is a very similar problem to this except that i am using ubuntu for the machine with the two connections.

right now i have my wireless on the 192.168.1.* address space, while the LAN is to be on 192.168.5.*

note: my goal is not to share internet with my laptop, just be able to connect to it and the internet at the same time.

desktop: ubuntu 9.10 , wireless and LAN
laptop: windows xp, LAN only

Ubuntu Networking :: Make A Wireless AP And Share Wireless Internet With It?

Mar 12, 2011

I have a Dell Studio 1558 with a Broadcom wireless adapter. It's a brilliant piece of hardware and love everything about it except some of it's overheating problems. When I first bought it with Windows 7 pre-installed, it had an application installed on it called PeerNet, which creates a wireless network for other computers (and wifi-enabled phones) to connect to it. Simultaneously, you could also share your internet connection with these users. The internet connection could be either wired or wireless.

My question is, how do I go about finding the same functionality on Ubuntu since I know my hardware is capable of it. (I believe in Windows 7, it creates a virtual adapter that it uses) I know there are ways to share a WIRED internet connections with some help with the terminal, but I haven't found a way to share a WIRELESS internet connection. The network manager allows you to create a wireless network but I'm unable to connect to another wireless network at the same time.

The reason I mentioned mobile phones is because my mobile (Android 2.2) is unable to find a wireless network created by the network manager, but another laptop is (without internet access that is). I've noticed that mobile devices and iPod's aren't able to find ad-hoc networks on Windows PCs as well.

I hope someone out there will be able to find a solution for me (and surely others as well!) Maybe the final release of 11.04 will help out later if nothing turns up now.

Ubuntu :: Set Up Wireless Internet?

Jan 25, 2010

I have recently decided to try Ubuntu to see if I like it before making the switch. I currently run a dual booting system with Vista and Ubuntu 9.10. I have had wireless internet set up for a while on my laptop, but I do not know how to set it up in Ubuntu. I have looked online in many different places and am only getting more confused.

I already know what wireless card I have if that will help any. It is a Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN Mini-Card. If there is any other information needed then I can get it for you. I am not very familiar with Ubuntu yet, so I may need directions of how to look something up if more information is needed.

Ubuntu :: Getting Wireless Internet Working?

Nov 30, 2010

Now, lets make this clear: I am a COMPLETE linux noob. I only installed ubuntu today (dual booting with Windows 7). The thing is, my wireless is working perfectly in windows. However, I can't get it to work in Ubuntu. It detects my internet, but refuses to connect. I'm 100% sure that I have used the right password.I have an Atheros AR5007 wifi adapter. I'm liking the look of Ubuntu, but if I can't solve this it's pretty much useless to me.

I have an HP Mini 311 laptop with Windows XP. I would like to run Ubuntu on it but I can't get the wireless network to work. The laptop uses a Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN that works with Windows XP. I can bring the laptop up on Ubuntu 10.10 netbook using a USB flash drive. Before I try to install it on the hard drive I am using the "Try UBUNTU first". Everything seems to work except the wireless. I can only connect to the internet through an ethernet cable.How do I go about getting the wireless to work?

Ubuntu :: Cannot Browse Internet Or Get IP From Wireless

Jan 16, 2009

I've always been a big fan of linux having used it extensively in the military, came across a really nice looking distro called ubuntu 8.10. I installed it along side Vista on my hp dv7-1170 laptop and dual boot. Worked like a charm found all the drivers for all the hp devices including the webcam bluray etc. So I decided to put ubuntu on exclusively and just run virtualbox ose and put a vista session on there for when I needed it.

So I did that no problems, went and installed all the updates. Between the time I installed the updates and downloaded and installed a server patch to allow it to use all 4gb ram, I lost my inet connection. which was wireless. So I plugged into cat5 outlet and nothing. Just won't get an IP, so I wiped it again and reinstalled. Now I still can't get an IP from wireless or eth0. I can manually assign it an ip and it says connected, but still don't get out.

Ubuntu :: Can't Get Wireless Internet To Work

Sep 4, 2010

I'm a first-time Ubuntu user. I recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop, creating a dual boot in combination with Windows XP. Unfortunately, I can't get my Wireless Internet to work. It looks to me that Ubuntu somehow doesn't accept my Speedtouch dongle, seeing as the little green light on it stays off. The Ubuntu Help function simply suggests to go to Windows and "turn it on", but when I'm in Windows, it IS on... Also, in the network manager, there are NO wireless networks to choose from.

Futher down is some output from some commands that I see mentioned on forums discussing similar problems.

I think I should stress that I'm using a desktop, not a laptop, and that "hooking it up with a cable" is not an option, due to the distance between the desktop and the modem and the size and weight of the desktop. I would also like to stress that I have no experience managing my own Ubuntu system, so try to keep any instructions as simple as possible.

Ubuntu :: Wireless Internet Not Working?

May 23, 2011

I have been looking around and it seems that having a wireless USB network to connect to the internet is difficult on Ubuntu.

All I know is that it seems that my wireless linksys network card is a WUSB600N Anyone that has any commands they want me to put in my terminal I can tell you but from other forums I try to put many in and get no output simply because I believe I do not have the drivers but do not fully know how to even install these drivers in the terminal or am not doing something right.

Ubuntu :: Can't Connect To Internet Using Wireless On 10.10 Despite?

Dec 26, 2010

I was instructed to repost this question here; so, here it is. I tried to post the previous thread below. I would like some help setting up using a wireless connection. I can connect using wired connection, and I have no trouble browsing. I have a strong wireless connection as well; however, when I try to browse I get a server not found error.

I have done a lot of research but I don't know if any answers really matched my situation.I did download the necessary drivers. Before that, I didn't have a wireless connection. I was able to connect on this pc before the install, and all other devices still connect using wireless. I have a linksys router. The one thing that stands out at me is the ip address that it says the wireless connection is using. It says it is 10.42.43.1 I feel like that might be problematic because I'm pretty sure my router only accepts connections with values that are between 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.200.

[Code]...

It is already set to wpa2 and aes. There is no option for ccmp; so, I can't select that. I don't have tkip selected, and the is no field labeled psk, but I am guessing that the field I entered the password in is the same thing.
