Wireless connection issue - athero 9300 pci wireless card
Hi all,
I am new to CentOS. I built myself a desktop with an additional PCI
wireless card 'TP-LInk WPN3800', which I have checked needs an ath9k driver.

Following the wireless connection tutorial on CentOS wiki, I have both
kernel-devel 2.6.6 and ath9k installed. Then I tried

ath9k in CentOS 5
Hi,
I'm thinking about updating the wireless card on a CentOS 5.3 box.
The Wiki at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless says that
the "ath9k driver ships with CentOS", but I can't find it. I've tried
modinfo, locate, yum search, and yum provides, but they all come up
empty. Am I missing something, or is the Wiki need correcting? I've
also searched the

[1/1] [gfxboot] align buffer used to read data from disk to a 512 byte boundary
The COM API provides a function to read from disk (int 22h, AX=07h)
which needs a destination buffer aligned on a 512 byte boundary. gfxboot
uses this function but doesn't ensure its data buffer is properly
aligned. This leads to failures on a few machines (HP Pavillion dv5):
gfxboot:

Problem with wireless router
Hello,
I am using wireless N on a DLink-655 wireless router. It is the "A"
hardware version with the latest firmware.
I am using a channel that no one in my vicinity is using, according to
iwlist.
I checked the Statistics from the router web interface and they are
shown below for a period of less than an hour.
It looks like the errors are excessive, especially the "RX Packets

Monitor Wireless Networks
Hi,
I am having interference with my neighbouring wireless networks.
Is there a linux tool that enables me to monitor the ESSID, channel,
power output and other information for neighbouring wireless networks?
I am especially interested in the channel so I can choose a different one.
Thank you,

Related to the new laptop question: CentOS on a netbook?
I've got a netbook, circe 2009. When I got it, not that I was wild about
ubuntu, but there was specifically an ubuntu netbook remix. Well, it's a
few years later - has anyone put CentOS (6, preferably) on a netbook, and
were there any problems?

Cisco AnyConnect Mobility Client for 32- bit CentOS 6
I have the above installed on a couple of 64-bit systems, both CentOS 6 and CentOS 7, where the client works fine.
Now, however, I have installed the 32-bit version of CentOS 6 on a netbook but I cannot get the Cisco website installer to recognize the computer/operating system, not even displaying any error message.
Does anyone have the client running on a 32-bit system? I have been told it

C6 or C7 for an old netbook
I've got an old HP Netbook, which is just fine for taking with when I'm
travelling, to check email and news. I have a very old Ubuntu
netbook-remix on it, and it really, *really* needs to be updated to
something current. I, of course, would prefer CentOS....
The question is: I see that *if* the specs I just looked up (I'm at work,
not home, where I could just turn it on, but they

[OT] What file can I use to change Ubuntu 9.10 display characteristics?
This question is vaguely related to R in that I have managed to wedge
the netbook computer that I use for demonstrations of R and I would
like to know how to un-wedge it so I can continue to give lectures
about R.
I have an ASUS eee PC running the netbook-remix version of Ubuntu
9.10. The X server in 9.10 is a little different from earlier
versions in that it does not require an explicit

C6, lightweight window managers - opinions?
So, on my old Netbook, now happily running C6.9, I'm looking for opinions
for a lightweight window manager. Gnome surely ain't it....
Years back, I used to like IceWM, but not sure it's been kept up.
So, opinions?

Running games without a cd
Hi,
I want to run classic games like Age Of Empires through wine without a CD on my netbook. Is there any hope?
Am I right in my researching, there is no tool like daemon on linux (mount such that games are happy)?
Sorry for being stupid, thanks
