similar to: Atheros AR5212/AR5213 wifi not working

Greetings everyone. My recently installed CentOS 7 instance does not enable wireless via Network Manager or otherwise. I have the following output from lspci: lspci |grep AR 08:05.0 Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR5212/AR5213 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) uname -a Linux imaginationland 3.10.0-123.8.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Sep 22 19:06:58 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux iw

My friend uses a typical dual-boot setup (Windows XP and Centos 5.3). The machine is online 24/7 and he often uses it from a remote location (Linux via ssh -X, Windows via rdesktop). The problem is that he wants to be able to remotely configure which of these two OSes is to be the default on next reboot, so he can switch from one OS to the other and back remotely. If Linux is up, he just needs to

Hi everyone! :-) I just installed CentOS 6 on one of my desktop machines, and yum now tells me that some of my favorite apps are not present in any of the repositories I configured. To name a few: ktorrent, kile, krusader, pavucontrol, mplayerplug-in (or is it now gecko-mediaplayer), xine, xmms, and so on... All these apps were readily available for C5, and I used them happily. I am mostly

Hi folks, I've never encountered the following problem before (but I guess there is a first time for everything) --- after issuing a regular shutdown, the system starts the shutdown procedure, but stalls at some point, and never finishes. It gets to the console, writes the "powering down" message and stops there --- the hardware never actually powers off. At that time, the machine

Hi All; How do I enable/configure wireless in CentOS 5 ? I cannot find knetworkmanager anywhere.. Do I need to install another repository ? I did enable rpmfusion with no luck Thanks in advance...

Sorry for an off topic post, but a lot of you folks are sysadmins here or there, and just might have a suggestion... ;-) I have a WinXP machine that is to be unattended for a period of 3 years (yes, I know, it sounds ridiculous, but still...). What I need is remote access to it to perform regular system maintenance, virus cleanups, occasional software installations, reboots, config changes,

Does anyone know about some free (as in beer, and maybe as in speech) software which would implement authentication and authorization of a user prior to issuing a valid dhcp lease? I imagine the following scenario: someone walks into my office building with a laptop (a colleague, a visitor, a guest, whoever), and hooks up onto the local net (wired or wireless). The server detects an unknown

Every once in awhile I see this horizontal percent bar flash up on the screen then disappear. What is that? CentOS 7.1, ? kde. -wes

I have a dual boot CentOS 5.2 / FC4 machine, and recently I have bought a new widescreen tft monitor. I used to use a plain 4:3 crt, and after plugging the 16:9 tft naturally X needed reconfiguring. This was easy in FC4, and seemed as easy in CentOS, but with a wrong result. Basically, what I did was to run system-config-display to reconfigure for the new monitor and resolution. All goes

I am having trouble using the realtek wifi chip in my new tp-link usb wifi dongle. Upon plugging it, the device gets registered by the kernel (in /var/log/messages), but that's about it, no network device is being created (iwconfig does not see it, nothing else works). A few google searches later I found out that this realtek chip is not supported by the kernel and requires a driver, and that

Inside / (which is mostly always ext4), 100% of the time. :-) That said, I prefer virtual machines over multiboot environments, and

Hi everyone, This just came to my attention --- I have CentOS 7 installed on one machine, and have configured elrepo and epel as additional repositories. When I turned on the yum-priorities package (and set up priorities in the order base&updates < elrepo < epel), it turns out that there are 65 conflicting packages between base and epel, and additional 5 between elrepo and epel (there

Hi everyone! :-) While doing a regular manual yum update on my ContOS 5.3 server, yum complained as follows: [root at sith ~]# yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * epel: ftp.icm.edu.pl * rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de * base: centosb2.centos.org * updates: centose.centos.org * extras: centosb2.centos.org * addons:

Hi everyone! :-) I am supposed to get (for the first time) into the world of making youtube clips. I have a webcam, a microphone and a big hard drive configured and ready. The question is: what would you suggest as an easy-to-use yum-installable app that could handle a couple of minutes/hours of recording? People who are about to use it are complete noobs, and I would like to give them a

Well, there's best and worst case scenarios. Best case for file-backed VMs is
