Hello,

I have decided to run Linux for a month as I feel that I have out grown Windows (I have Vista Ultimate) but I until recently havn't been to sure about Linux so I decided that I would do Linux for a month. I am trying to get Fedora 7 to Dual boot with Vista (a task in itself) and I'm also trying to get Ubuntu to run live from a USB stick.

 

I am blogging my experiences at monthonlinux.blogspot.com. Take a look. I have pretty much started out with pretty much no knowledge about Linux (just how to install it and basic names of applications) and in several days I have actulay come quite a way.

Only applies if you are using the following:

 

- freetype vulnerability

- gimp vulnerability

World's No. 1 Linux Expo

 

Don't forget the Ubuntu Security Updates

So I installed Vmware on my fc6,in one of the virtual machines I installed Windows xp however when I try to ping from one to another there is no communication,how can I create comunication between them? right now I am not on my linux comp so ill be unable to post outputs but the one I saw last simply said there was no comunication

Finally, 7 months after the release of Fedora Core release 6, Fedora 7 codenamed Moonshine is out !

Recently, I purchased a NMP-8602+ miniPCI. I have tried using this card in a HP ze5470us running Fedora Core 6 with the atheros madwifi drivers. The latest madwifi. The drivers compile w/o errors. I am able to bring ath0 up (sometimes) but the system locks often. Most of the time it locks when I try to use the wireless. E.g. capture wireless traffic with airodump-ng or scan for wireless APs in the area. I check the system logs...here are the messages before it locks up.

 

May 28 08:59:29 steve-laptop pcscd: winscard.c:219:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 0 0 Not Found

May 28 08:59:29 steve-laptop last message repeated 3 times

also

May 28 09:57:37 steve-laptop kernel: wifi0: ath_reset: unable to reset hardware: '' (HAL status 0)

May 28 09:57:39 steve-laptop kernel: wifi0: rx FIFO overrun; resetting

 

 

I thought perhaps it was my configuration so I tried a popular security tools live distro Backtrack 2 w/ madwifi drivers. The card was detected but the system hangs just like in FC6.

 

I tried another laptop I had handy to see if it was hardware compatibility issues. I just tried a L2005cu. The laptop will not boot as it detects an "unapproved" wireless card.

 

I though i'd try another OS. I installed windows 2000 pro on the same HP ZE5470us. I downloaded the correct Atheros drivers for this card. When I do the install on the drivers (I tried 3 versions) the BSOD appears. The message displayed "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" with some memory addresses. I tried updating the BIOS as well to be sure.

 

So, I'm looking for some advice. Is this card perhaps bad? Incompatible? I am going to take the card to work tomorrow and try it in a few laptops. Have you heard of this incompatibility happening to anyone else?

 

Thanks in Advance!

Hey all,

 

Well its been a while since I posted a guide on linux-noob :( this is due to being a bit to busy with university work, anyways I thought I would write a small guide on how to record your desktop using xvidcap. Xvidcap dose not require VNC and is capable of saving your recoding in the following formats:

Portable Anymap File (.ppm)

Portable Network Graphics File (.png)
