Kernel Compilation Don't Work

I install fgrlx driver on vivid os the driver look like is istalled correct on system and built the necessary kernel modules because the dpkg log not report any errors, i configured the driver by simple commands like:

sudo aticonfig --initial

sudo aticonfig --screen-layout=on

i reboot the machine , but i face an strange issue the boot splash screen is hangup,i cant enter my lvm password to boot the system, i was have a chance to boot into rescue mode when boot to rescue mode the display not read by the system i try to export display by

export DISPLAY=:0

I try to configure /etc/X11/xorg.conf there is not good resaults the boot splash still hang up

I edited the grub , i uncomment "quiet splash" modified by "nomodeset"

i can boot without boot splash but im faced other issue i cant switch to virtual tty

i dont know is this a bug in the driver or in the kernel

any suggest

Hi folks,

I'm trying to install the drivers for my "legacy" nvidia graphics card.
I've downloaded the file from nvidia's website to install the driver, but during the process I get this message...

Kernel header file ' /lib/modules/3.13.0-37-generic/build/include/linux/version.h ' does not exist .

The most likely reason is the kernel source files in ' /lib/modules/3.13.0-37-generic/build ' have not been configured.

Anyone know how to configure this file? I've been working on this for a few days now...it's getting old!

Thanks for your help.

Hi All,

The Bluetooth device is not working. It worked however in Windows 7 Professional version 64 bit.

The error message is "No Adapters found for Bluetooth".

Can anyone help on this.

Hi.
This is the first time I need to do this. New to Linux... :-)

I need to have two Ethernet connections in my laptop working. Its Ethernet RJ-45 jack works fine. I had to get a new Trendnet USB/Ethernet adapter for the second connection. After I connected it for the first time to my laptop having Fedora 15, I get:

The first connection is em1 and working fine, but I never see a second ethx interface. I figured I'm missing the driver for it. So, I went to the read me file from the cd, where these files a
- asix.h
- ax88179_178a.c
- Makefile
- readme

The readme instructions for Linux say: you need the kernel sources installed on the machine. Make sure the version of the running kernel must match the installed kernel sources.

1. What are kernel sources and how I can download them for this installation? Please, keep in mind I do not know Linux. This is my first time doing more than just the very basics.
The instructions are called "ASIX AX88179_178A USB 3.0/2.0 Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter Driver Compilation & Configuration on Linux."

My kernel is 2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.i686.PAE

I have no idea how to start.
Thank you!!!

Dear Sir.

U-boot version : 2015.01

I'm setting some env value. for example see below.

Code:

U-boot > printenv
serial_number=abcdefg

I'm want to "serial_number" pass to kernel cmdline.
So, I'm make a "bootargs" env value. see below.

Code:

U-boot > printenv
bootargs='console=ttyS0,115200 board_serial=${serial_number}'

But, i was failed that env serial_number pass to kernel.

Code:

Built 1 zonelists in Zone order, mobility grouping on. Total pages: 32512
Kernel command line: console=ttyS0,115200 board_serial={serial_number}

How can u-boot env variable pass to kernel?

Thank you.

OK,

Lastnight I decided to finally attempt to install the dedicated ATI/AMD Catylist drivers. After all I was successfull with the HP drivers, right...

No matter which grub selection I make, getting in is broken, except of course for the Windows XP Pro x64 entry, that works just fine. I'm here with you today, because of the Fedora 21 Live DVD, (slooooww).

Here is the drivers log file:

==========================================================

I just rebooted without attempting to configure the card, as per the ATI/AMD warning stating that it's important to do so, because my thinking was derailed due to seeing errors, and the install program said I needed to reboot. Afterall, I just couln't believe that with a "Failed to compile kernel module" error, it would actually keep the changes I'd made, that surely Linux had a failsafe in place for such circumstances. In other words, I'm also a newbie, and just don't know how many hoops of fire one has to jump through to be at peace with linux.

Can anyone please help be get back into my install, I've already set up so many things, there's just got to be a way, right?


Thanks in Advance!

Hi.


I'm using smstools3 and Sony Ericsson Phones to send SMS. My system did work well with 4 phones, now I want to connect 20.
The issue is that each phone generates two ttyACMXX devices using cdc_acm driver, and for limitations the driver supports up to 32 ACM devices

Code:

Aug 31 09:51:19 smsgw kernel: cdc_acm 2-2:1.1: ttyACM31: USB ACM device
Aug 31 09:51:19 smsgw kernel: cdc_acm 2-2:1.3: ttyACM32: USB ACM device
Aug 31 09:51:19 smsgw kernel: usbco  registered new driver cdc_acm
Aug 31 09:51:19 smsgw kernel: drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c: v0.25:USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB modems and ISDN adapters
Aug 31 09:51:19 smsgw kernel: usbco  registered new driver cdc_ether
Aug 31 09:51:19 smsgw kernel: usb 2-2: unsupported MDLM descriptors
Aug 31 09:52:01 smsgw kernel: cdc_acm 3-1:1.0: no more free acm devices

From the ttyACM devices created by the driver I only use the first one..

So I was wondering if it is possible to remove a ttyACM from /sys/class/tty/ttyACM1

I tried unlink /dev/ttyACM1, but it persist as a device on /sys/class/tty/

The devices are removed if I disconnect the phone, So I think would be possible also that the driver only create one ttyACM device..

Please guide me...

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

I have a strange request. I have a system running Fedora 21. This system is now not connected to the internet (for security reasons).

I have used the " yum downgrade bash " command to revert back to version 4.3.30, but I am still receiving compilation errors in some code (which I have rescued from a Fedora Core 4 installation [don't ask!!]).

Is it possible to download the source for Bash version 3, compile and install it to test it on my Fedora 21 installation?

If so, could someone help me please, as this is something I have never tried before?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi

I am new to kali linux and have got a fresh install with all the current updates (without any new repositories). I am really interested in aircrack and wifi exploitation. But before i can do any of that i need to install my second network adapter, the asus n53 pcie. I am able to type this because my motherboard came with its own intergrated wifi adapter, the aetheros (something). That was working out of the box as soon as kali linux was installed, however i need a proper network adapter (the n53) to make use of my 3rd party long range antenna (it can pick up networks over 600m away ).

I am attempting to install my asus n53 pcie network adapter but have had no success at all, most likely because i have no idea what to do once i have extracted the driver. Currently it is sitting in my home folder. It has a few folders and files in it, with these being the folders

(chips, common, include, os, rate_ctrl, sta and tools)

and these being the files

(iwpriv_usage.txt, makefile, readme_sta_pci, rt2860STA.dat, rt2860staCarddat, sta_ate_iwpriv_usage.txt.)

In the readme file it says this in the instructions:

1> $tar -xvzf DPB_RT2860_Linux_STA_x.x.x.x.tgz
go to "./DPB_RT2860_Linux_STA_x.x.x.x" directory.

2> In Makefile
set the "MODE = STA" in Makefile and chose the TARGET to Linux by set "TARGET = LINUX"
define the linux kernel source include file path LINUX_SRC
modify to meet your need.

3> In os/linux/config.mk
define the GCC and LD of the target machine
define the compiler flags CFLAGS
modify to meet your need.

# $/sbin/ifconfig ra0 inet YOUR_IP up

7> unload driver
$/sbin/ifconfig ra0 down

And this to me looks like another language. I would GREATLY APPRECIATE IT if someone could give me step by step instructions on how to install this, without skipping on anything. I will even pay 10000 dogecoin if someone helps me! I have been searching youtube tutorials for 3 hours (lol) for it and havent found anything. Please help me!

Thanks
