How can I MANUALLY install madwifi?

Hi all,
I'm a bit of a situation here: I have installed Arch, but my only means of going online in via my Netgear WG311T which uses madwifi modules. It works absolutely fine on other distros so I know it can work.
I cannot connect my pc via ethernet as I have bunnies that will chew the hell out of the cable, and I cannot physically keep my eye on the cable at all times. (So please do NOT tell me to use the ethernet right now)
I know there is the madwifi-ng in unsupported in Arch, I downloaded the pkg file and all the dependancies, but when I installed it I got a "missing" directory" error...
The command I used was:
pacman -A pkgname
I would prefer using the Arch pkg rather than downloading madwifi from their site, if possible.
Help please!

I've been happily using the madwifi PKGBUILD I got from the AUR.  I've been keeping it updated--works great.
I don't believe I have madwifi-ng-utils or madwifi-ng(-archck), at least I didn't install the packages--what am I missing, anything?
The convenience and security of using a package from the official Arch repos. If you're happy building/maintaining your own, keep doing it.

Someone has a madwif-enabled, guified, wpa-supplicant package in the AUR - it might do.

  • How can I manually install software from recovery partition?

    Hi,
    I'm looking for information about how install preinstalled software after OS upgrade.
    As far as I can see, it is done through 3 different locations:
    Recovery partition (D: drive)
    SMINST Folder (located in %Windows%)
    hp Folder (invisible folder in C
    First step is to identify the machine (brand/model) to allow installation.
    Then, scripts will install packages.
    It should the be possible to manually install the software from the recovery partition.
    As far as this software is bought with the computer (so part of the price) and there is no way of getting the original installers from the support website (only updates available), it would be "fair" to be able to perform a manual install...
    Is there anyone with this knowledge?
    Thx in advance for your help.

    I cannot believe no one replied to you.   I am having the same problem.  I can print but not scan thru the MFNP feature. I'm not sure how/why it is working for printing.   I setup the print driver on all my client laptops to my wifi router/access-point such that its SNMP-enabled on channel 1.  The MNFP port said 161 on the printer when it was working.  Not sure these two protocols are the same... SNMP and MNFP.  I think the latter is Canon's own protocol...not sure how to get it to work with my network. I have a Netgear RV6300 access point connected via wired ethernet to the cable modem which is by Arris (one of those all-in one routers/switch/WAP -- but I'm using the Netgear as my WAP for my WLAN, although the printer gets a DHCP assigned IP on the main router - 10.0.0.9)  At one point I had it set up as static IP 10.0.0.200.  Maybe I will switch back to that...don't know if it will fix scanning though.

  • How can i manually install the swz files in the assetcache!

    I have a computer that has no internet connection, and since i use components from SDK 4.1 and want to run my application anywhere,
    i need to do a "manual update of flash" and have it register the external swz files.
    If this is not possible, then maybe it could be possible to have all components compiled into one, and only one, swf file, so i can copy that file
    to the "offline" pc.
    I really believed, that the "merge into code" actually compiled everything into the code, but i must have misunderstood.
    I have tried to "reset" the swc components, so they do not use the download url, from adobe, but it makes no difference, and i have edited the flex-config.xml file in the SDK's framework folder, but no luck so far.
    Any hints are welcome,
    TIA
    Allan

    Hi Gurdeep
    I removed the fpdownload references, and set the use-network=false and the static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=true.
    i use the rpc_xx.swz, sparkskins_xx.swz, spark_xx.swz, texlayout_xx.swz, framework_xx.swz and osmf_flex_xx.swz libs.
    I have a master swf file, compiled in flash builder, and a child-swf that is loaded from the master (using the mx.swfloader), and the child is compiled using the mxmlc commandline compiler.
    I am investigating, if the child could be the culprit.
    I have tried to find a way to "install" the required components in the assetcache, but found no other way than "copying the swz and heu files" there myself.
    It actually works, but it would be nice to do this "the proper way"
    Thankx

  • How can I manually change the height of the "Type ...

    Hi all
    Just got automatically installed the latest 6.22 version of skype few minutes ago and I got a few questions. 
    First and foremost, how can I MANUALLY change the height of the textbox, where I type the messages. I would like to make it larger, like in the previous versions of skype. I don't want to move my mouse cursor through the entire monitor to reach this tiny textbox.
    And second, why you guys are trying constanly to ruin something that is working perfectly ? Going to revert to the previous version until you fix all these nuisances.
    Regards

    There is no way to do this, it is designed to be strictly landscape with keyboard, portrait without - not the best thought-out phone on the market, mainly geared towards compulsive texters and e-mailers.
    There's no way to know whetherNokia will change this with any future updates, perhaps you should make the recommendation to them directly using the 'contact us' link.

  • How can I manually transfer album artwork from my library to my iPod

    I downloaded album artwork to the songs in my library, and now I want to get the artwork onto the songs on my iPod classic. Problem is, I manually manage the songs on my ipod, instead of auto-syncing.... so when I hit the "sync" button in the latest version of iTunes (11.1.1.11), nothing happens. There also isn't a "show album artwork on iPod" button anymore. I'm afraid to change my settings from manual to automatic syncing, because I have lots of playlists on my iPod that aren't in my library, and I don't know if these playlists will be removed during the auto-sync. So how can I manually get the album artwork onto my iPod?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    You can only backup iOS devices.
    Sadly the old trick of removing all artwork and then adding it all back again no longer works. You may get some joy if you removed the specific album, then add it back again, butgenerally once things go wrong with artwork on a classic the only option is to restore it. Not a problem if all the media is in your library and you sync with a small number of selected playlists. If you don't have all the media see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • How can I re-install the app?

    Indesign CC was trashed. Creative Cloud Shows app as "up to date". How can I re-install the app?

    Hi Notebook57,
    You first need to uninstall the application completely.
    In Mac :-- Applications --->Utilities --->Adobe Installers
    in Adobe installers you will find the uninstaller for Indesign CC just run that and complete the uninstallation.
    In window :-- Control panel ---> programs and features --> uninstall Indesign cc.
    After doing this you can launch Creative cloud desktop ---> log out and log back in.
    You should see the option to install the software again.
    Thanks

  • How can I re-install the last version of iPhoto, I hate this new version.

    How can I re-install the last version of iPhoto. I hate this new version "Photos 1.0" which installed yesterday on my iMac. Please help. My operating system is OS X YOSEMITE 10.10.3. THANKS.

    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

    I have hp 430 laptop,how can i re install the windows 7, if i not have original windows on my laptop. i have oem number,
    But i have troubol to finishing installation of window.

    Originally the Notebook will have the Recovery Partition and that would give you an option to create a set of Recovery Disk. If you have not created those Recovery Disks when the Notebook was in working condition we cannot do that right now
    As of now if you need to recover your Notebook with the new Operating System you can check if the Recovery Partition is in a working condition or not, If yes you can easily recover/restore your Notebook
    If Recovery Partition is corrupted
    You need to call HP Technical Support and request for a set of Recovery Disks , So you can recover/restore your Notebook at the earliest
    OR
    You need call up Microsoft and purchase an Operating System with the License Key, So you can recover/restore your Notebook at the earliest
    I strongly recommend you to Contact HP Technical Support over the Phone for further assistance without any delay
    Hope this helps, for any further queries reply to the post and feel free to join us again

  • Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5?

    Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5? My iMatch is turned on and I can direct downlad my music to the iPhone from the Cloud; however, I want to direct import All of my music from iTunes to my iPhone 5 via the connecting USB cable and it is not working. Yes, I have tried restarting both devices, and no autosync is not working nor is is it providing the avaialbile option to select music in iTunes on my Mac to then sync. Please help. Thanks

    Please disregard. I figured it out. Answer for anyone else running into this problem: You have to turn off iTunes Match on both devices. Apparently, if you activate iTunes Match it deactivates your abiltiy to direct sync.
