similar to: Intel wireless firmware

OK, I've downloaded and unzipped the firmware files in ipw2200-fw-3.0.tgz - so I have 4 files: ipw2200-bss.fw, ipw2200-ibss.fw, ipw2200-sniffer.fw and LICENSE.ipw2200-fw, all of which I've placed in the /lib/firmware directory. Unfortunately, the instructions in README.ipw2200 and INSTALL are not clear as to what to do next. I'm using CentOS 5 on my (Dell) laptop so setting-up wireless

Is there any way I can find a driver and/or get the above wireless card working in CentOS 5 on my Dell laptop (Inspiron 1501). I've installed ipw2200 from RPMForge, but it now appears that this won't work because the card is not an Intel PRO/Wireless card. Dell seem to support only MS Windows Vista now so I don't think there's much chance of getting a driver from them - so am I on

Trying to set up wireless networking with CentOS 4.4 on a (new Dell) laptop and have looked at http://www.ces.clemson.edu/linux/fc2- ipw2200.shtml and http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php? topic_id=2532&forum=30 regarding use of ipw2200, which is included in the kernel. The problem is that it doesn't appear to be actually installed/loaded because the Intel Corporation

I've installed ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf from RPMForge using yum OK. I've loaded the ipw modules with /sbin/modprobe ipw2200 and then /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw which gives: ipw2200 136873 0 ieee80211 33417 1 ipw2200 However, when I run system-config-network I don't see Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (eth1) in the list of adapters. Also, when I

I have here a box which I dual-boot between CentOS 5.4 and an older version of that "other OS" that I'm using to check out the ELrepo version of kmod-ntfs. After installing as per the directions on the ELrepo site, I can mount an NTFS filesystem, and when I type "mount" with no options the output tells me that the target filesystem is mounted read-write. However, when I

I have had Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0.1 installed on my CentOS 4.2 desktop and it worked fine. After upgrading to 4.3, I can't get it to come up anymore. I downloaded Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 and it does the same. I'd appreciate any suggestions on what to look for, since the executable and the startup scripts are not giving me any useful errors to chase. -- Ron Loftin

I have some customer machines that have not been updated for some time, and are still on CentOS 5.2. While reading the release notes for 5.4, I have not yet seen anything that looks like it needs attention, but are there any known issues or "gotchas" related to moving directly from 5.2 to 5.4? Comments, pointers, things to look for are all welcome. Thanks muchly. -- Ron Loftin

First off, I'm glad that 5.4 is now available, and a big "Thank you" to the development team for all of their hard work. I have noticed that the docs for 5.4 appear to be accessible on the CentOS Web site, but some of them seem to have some issues. In the "Technical Notes", everything after the first page of Chapter 1 gives a 404 error. I've tried to send in a report

It seems that the past month or so the CentOS Announce list digest has no longer been sent out to the general CentOS list ( this list ) although the CentOS Web site still says that this list is subscribed to the Announce list in digest form. I've been checking, and the announce message does not seem to be getting caught in any spam filter that I use. Is this broken, or am I missing something

Hi ALL, Short description of my problem: I am not able to make wireless network working on the IBM ThinkPad T43p. System: T43p OS: CentOS 4.4 kernel: 2.6.9-34.EL firmware: ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf.noarch.rpm What did I do ? - installed firmware from RPM package - removed kernel driver (/sbin/rmmod ipw2200) - installed kernel module (/sbin/modprobe ipw2200) dmesg output:

We currently have a Brother MFC-5490CN. Printer firmware is dated June 1010. (yeah, 10 years old). Few years ago the brother software wouldn't work for printing under Fedora. No problem, can print under Windows 10. Then it stopped scanning. Could still print...under Windows. Now, to fix the scanning features working I installed updated drivers under Windows, now it scans like champ, but

Installed CentOS 5 on my Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop, hoping that it will be easier to set up wireless networking than it was in CentOS 4.4. But still sooooo difficult to get it working, mainly because there doesn't appear to be a driver pre-installed for this wireless card ((Dell wireless 1390 Mini PCI network card 802.11b/g). Do I still have to use ipw2200 and what is this anyway? - I really

Our office has had a Brother MFC-8510DN for at least five years - no issues. As has been said below, you do have to download and install the driver but the process hasn't been problematic. Having said that, I haven't pushed the limit on it's capabilities, just done rather plain printing. ________________________________ From: CentOS <centos-bounces at centos.org> on behalf of

I am going to be setting up an Intel 2200bg card this evening. I was wondering if anyone is using this (successfully) with CentOS 4. The directions look straightforward, but please let me know if you had to do anything interesting/undocumented to make it work. I am also wondering if people are using the driver provided with the current CentOS 4 kernel or if people are using the most recent

This is a new Centos 5.1 install on a HP nc2400 (that use to run XP). Completely clean install; blew away the XP partitions... After applying all the updates, and configuring for the rpmforge repo, I used yumex to install dkms and the dkms-ipw3945, ipw3945-firmware, and ipw3945d rpms. lsmod|grep ipw shows: ipw3945 180391 1 ieeee80211 33417 1 ipw3945 and dmesg)grep

Here are the relevant lines from my /etc/named.conf file on CentOS 5. directory "/var/named"; zone "43.168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "data/192.168.43"; }; This will create/modify file "/var/named/data/192.168.43" and works with no issues after an upgrade.

I've taken you as far as I can go. ?Now you will have to experiment a bit for your use case. ?I should point out that at least in my system, the link with the serial number in it shows up even with the line commented in the rules file. As always, YMMV. On Thu, 2019-02-07 at 22:29 +0100, Helmut Drodofsky wrote: > Hello Ron, > > sounds good. I have 2 tape changer. I persume, udev
