I can't for the life of me get any sort of wireless to work in Suse 10.2 The "native broadcom support" is worthless in both of my laptops and where NDISWrapper used to work it doesn't anymore. I reformatted and did a clean install of Suse using all new NDISWrapper settings and still I get nothing. Has anybody out there gotten this to work? It's making me crazy and it's the only thing holding me to windows right now. I really want to get this going and any help would be appreciated.

I dig it, and just to update...as per the suggestion...

 

I obviously removed some of the standard panel bars, and updated the icon/theme packages.

 

The Icon Package I am using is Dropline Neu!.

 

The Apple-like taskbar at the bottom was taken from the basic install of gdesklets StarterBar. It was relatively easy to setup.

hi guys,

 

i'd like my media to play in mplayer instead of totem.

 

when i click on some (usually mms or windows video links) totem starts and then complains that it can't play the file.

 

if i run the file via cli (the terminal) as below, then it works fine in mplayer

It's been a while since any major action has taken place with RPM (the command itself) so it was pleasing to see this:

http://www.rpm.org/ Nice new website

RPM is moving forward for the future .. good to hear :)

Hey folks,

 

I've been searching the forums and will continue to do so, but so far I haven't found any posts pertaining to my question... and no good info on the net that isn't 4 years old. If I've missed an entire topic devoted to this subject please forgive me and point me in the right direction :)

 

I'm looking to setup a linux box as a firewall/router/VPN endpoint for my company. We have a small network ~18 machines running OSX and Windows XP. We have a static IP and will be running several switches and WAPs behind it, along with a centOS box running trixbox.

 

As a linux n00b I'm trying to find a solution that maybe isn't completely terminal based, and probably a full distro vs ipcop, since I want to easily add-on stuff in the future. The VPN would need to be able to have remote client's connect from mac or pc, and possibly another VPN endpoint at some point in the future.

 

Does anyone have any recommendations for which distro to use and whether to download/purchase CDs or ftp install?

 

Thanks,

 

Psy

Just got anywebs email, sorry for not logging in, since I upgraded to FC6 and opera I simply forgot, I have been visiting as a guest ;)

 

Anyway, FC6 is amazing, and I've not booted windows for 12 months since installing fc4 (then 5 now 6), I have vmware / wine for the two windows apps I still use (ftp-rush under wine and nokia phone software on vmware) but here is my fc6 desktop, just to let you know the help i got in the beginning from here and the fedora forums really helped..

Hi

 

I have a ADM8511 Pegasus II USB Ethernet Converter. I have Fedora Core5 running on my System.

 

The problem is I can see my device listed under Hardware, but get the following error when I try & add it as a new device under the devices menu.

 

pegasus device eth2 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.

 

The following is the Output of lsusb command :

 

[root@localhost ~]# lsusb

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1267:0201 Logic3 / SpectraVideo plc A4Tech SWOP-3 Mouse

Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Bus 003 Device 002: ID 07a6:8511 ADMtek, Inc. ADM8511 Pegasus II Ethernet

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

 

My Kernel Version is : 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5

 

The lsusb detects the device as shown above, but the device is not detected under the /dev directory.

 

 

I'm lost. How can I fix this ??? The device works perfectly under Windows XP

 

regards

 

krish.
