similar to: Broadcom bcm5823kpb-5 drivers, do they exist?

Hi all, After rebooting my CentOS 5.5 server, i have the following message: ================================== Red Hat nash version 5.1.19.6 starting EXT3-fs: unable to read superblock mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3: invalid argument setuproot: moving /root failed: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting

Does anyone have some tips for setting up Broadcom's 802.3AD support or just getting their driver compiled / installed? First off, I noticed redhat claims the broadcom bcm5708 driver has been added to the rhel4 kernel. But I don't see /proc/net/nicinfo which broadcom claims the driver creates when it's successfully initialized. So, I'm trying to build the driver based on the

Hi folks, as some of you probably know, there's been some input lately from the community in regard to the aforementioned Wiki page. I temporarily got my hands on a piece of hardware equipped with BCM4311 so I can test the latest driver - and came to a conclusion that it doesn't work at all - it does load with the dependencies, but WiFi won't activate. Now, I have an older

Hi, We recently purchased some HP Gen8 servers with Broadcom BCM57810 NIC controllers. I am running CentOS 6.2 on these servers configured as KVM hosts. Has anyone gotten the Broadcom chips to run with SR-IOV on CentOS 6.2? Any clues on how to get it working? I see from the Broadcom glossy marketing docs that this chip supports SR-IOV, but I cannot find a procedure for configuring it. The

Greetings all: Loading Xen up on a server with 2 of these GbE adapters. I''m using the first one as the main interface and the second one for the NFS storage network. When things are running, I can see xenbr0 and pif shows it attached to eth0, although I don''t see any peth0 or vif0.0. I can connect to the main address on the machine without any problem. The trouble

Hi: I have a problem with XEN and networking on a AMD Turion64 laptop. The network interface is a Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5751M PCI express. I have the problem on both RHEL5 and SUSE SLES 10 but I am troubleshooting it on RHEL. When I run the standard kernel, the eth0 interface works absolutely fine with either DHCP or a static IP address. When I boot the XEX kernel, eth0 fails to

Hi, My environment is as below: Hardware: Dell R210 NICs: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCN5709/5716 (w/o FLR) Xen: xen 4.1.2 Kernel: 3.6.32.57 (final version of xen community) Distribution: Centos 6.2 (upgraded to above kernel) When I added iommu=soft to domU kernel boot line, the PCI passthru-ed NICs can be UP and RUNNING. Otherwise, omit iommu=soft option would make the passthru-ed NICs only UP but

I have used the SYSLINUX 3.35 successfully to boot up vesamenu.c32 as well as menu.c32 on an HP Intel PC (Intel 965 chipset) and a few other types of PCs. But when I use those very same SYSLINUX menus on an AMD Opteron server (IBM x326m), it is capable of loading up vesamenu.c32 and menu.c32 and displaying a list of menu items. But as soon as I select any item whatsoever in the menu list, the

Dear all, On the Broadcom wiki page, I've moved the formatted codes from tables into preformatted blocks. This makes the raw wiki code easier to read, and is consistent with other wiki pages that I've come across during translation. Should the maintainers of that page find such a change undesirable, please feel free to revert. Regards, Timothy Lee

Hi Milos/CentOS Admins, I've validated the BCM4321 chip per the install instructions if you all want to populate the table as confirmed in Appendix A of the Broadcom page: https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom#head-5b5da35ce5cedf2cddd2e815739a64758e341ab8 Table entry: Chip: BCM4321 EL version: CentOS 7.1 Kernel:

Wanted to report success, following this procedure: https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom At the bottom, I see something of a compatibility matrix, but a line representing my specific setup does not exists. So I offer the following data to show that it works in my environment. [erik at localhost ~]$ uname -r 3.10.0-327.36.3.el7.x86_64 [erik at localhost ~]$ cat

Last time I checked (but that was a while ago) TOE (TCP Offloading Engine) was not supported very well, at least not with Broadcom chips. Did anything change in that regard recently? More specifically, the chip I'm looking at is Broadcom NetXtreme II 5709 and the distribution is 5.3 Any luck with proprietary drivers? Any problems those drivers may cause with bonding? -- Florin Andrei

This is a continuation of my previous thread: "Broadcom Wifi Problem" Following a post from "James A. Peltier", who said: You can use the rpmforge version or compile it yourself. I've used this one with success using the details described earlier. http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php I did however have to patch it with

After following various advice I received on other threads to get the Broadcom wlan0 on my laptop to work I have still not succeeded. Therefore I am changing from CentOS 6.0 to 5.7 . I think that I'll first try the fix at: http://elrepo.org/tiki/wl-kmod on 5.7 . Anyone have a reason why I should proceed differently? Thanks, Mike.

Has anyone managed to get CentOS 6 x86_64 running on a server with a Broadcom NetXtremeII BCM5709 network adaptor? If so have you seen any issues with the network freezing? On booting everything works fine then the network will just stop - can't ping anything. If we manually restart the network service it will run again for a few seconds/minutes before hanging again. We have even installed the

Hello, The support for Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless is native in the kernel since 2.6.37 (module brcm80211, renamed brcmsmac since 2.6.39). But is it backported to some kernel available for CentOS ? Thanks, -- Philippe Naudin

Did you try the drivers provided by elrepo? http://elrepo.org/tiki/wl-kmod On December 14, 2014 5:32:34 AM EST, Niki Kovacs <info at microlinux.fr> wrote: >Hi, > >I just installed CentOS 6.6 on my HP Pavilion DM1 laptop.
