Compat-wireless-all is here (was -ck)

I managed to create a PKGBUILD that makes the modules for all installed kernels. It doesn't work with -git kernels for some reason, if you have a -git kernel installed, feel free to troubleshoot.
It's in AUR . http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40123
cheers

Hi I want to first thank you about the pkgbuild I'm using it but i have a little problem I wanto to make a patched version o compat-wireless for using it with aircrack-ng but I'm getting some troubles with the md5sum of the source because when te source gets downloaded from http://wireless.kernel.org/download/com … eless-2.6/ it's get rename to "-}.tar.bz2" so i cant make a md5sum
here is the pkgbuild that i make in fact it's yours I only made some changes like adding the patches and the new source version

    Ok, I was gonna try and update this seemingly simple AUR package and adopt it. I wanted to make it a daily snapshot for kernels >= 2.6.27. But it seems I am in over my head. First problem is I can't for the life of me figure out how this diff -u *.patch file I made won't work? Secondly even if I use makepkg -e with the modified Makefile I still get an error about permissions. So here is my updated PKGBUILD, and patch I created.
    (the old PKGBUILD is still on the AUR)
    Upated PKGBUILD The one I wish to use.

    Well, I will ask one more time. Can anyone help me to explain why this PKGBUILD is giving me so much trouble? I would appreciate even the slightest bit of help, you don't have to use compat-wireless to offer PKGBUILD/makepkg advice. I apparently don't know enough about Makfiles to edit them correctly so the source will compile. So if you know anything about Makefile don't hesitate to point out my errors.
    This is my modified Makefile, you can grab the original from the source. What is so wrong?

  • Printing problem - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - printer head?

    I posted this elsewhere, but I think I posted it on the wrong Forum so I am posting it here now. I hope I did not do anything to upset anyone. I am new to this area, please forgive my clumsiness.
    I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer. I've had my printer since December 2009 and no problems. I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 7 and had to go online to find the drivers that work for my printer. Windows 7 was not compatible with this printer.
    Also recently, I am having a problem with what I think may be the black printer head, but when I run diagnostic on it everything comes back saying it is fine. However the problem still exist. When printing the black color will become faded in some areas and in some lines will not only almost totally fade out, but will almost look italic.
    Can you tell me if this is the printer head and does it need replacing or is there another problem?
    SondraS

    Are you using genuine HP cartridges and not refilled or third-party cartridges?
    Print the Print Quality Diagnostic page from the setup menu/print report/ on the printer's front panel
    Are there any quality issues with this page?
    Although I am a HP employee, I am speaking on behalf of myself and not the company.

  • [SOLVED] Error compiling compat-wireless

    Bugged by permanent connection drops with ath9k, I want to try out compat-wireless. Got compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7 from here. The driver-select script mentioned on the website is not present in the source, and the included readme makes no mention of it.
    When I run "make", it aborts with following error:
    [user@arch compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7]$ make
    make -C /lib/modules/2.6.31-ARCH/build M=/home/user/compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7 modules
    make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.31-ARCH'

    make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.31-ARCH'
    make: *** [modules] Error 2
    The PKBUILD in Aur seems to have a typo and tries to install kernel26<=2.6.31 as a dependency, however since I do not understand what else it does I am not overly confident to just remove the dependency line in question.
    Anyone else got compat-wireless to compile?

    Hmm, not overly enthusiastic to search for windows drivers at the moment... The problem got worse recently, before I just had a hotkey for "netcfg2 -r", now the module has to be unloaded/loaded also...
    However, just got a "Mission Accomplished" moment by changing wpa mode in the router config to "wpa2 only" (before: auto wpa/wpa2), no connection drops anymore for an unusual long period of time... Also, copying large files over the network would force it to break before, which is not happening now.
    But if this indeed fixes anything is still too early to say.
    edit: surfing, torrent running, copying 15gb from a network disk and no connection drop - this is unheard of so far. the only thing why I remain suspicious, there is no one else home, so maybe it will fail again when more people use the network. don't know what speed is considered "standard", I had ~2,7Mb/sec copying files.
    edit II: Crap. The connection was still dropping, but reconnected automatically. Before the connection was just broken, without any output in dmesg, and did not come up again by itself. That's where I'm back now.

  • Driver for Officejet 4500 Wireless all-in-one will not install after upgrading to Windows 8.1

    Upgraded to Windows 8.1 on Pavilion g6.  Officejet 4500 Wireless all-in-one still prints but won't scan.  Downloaded full feature driver.  Installation quit giving error message 'file cannot be found'.  Tried 'chat' sessions with no resolution

    Hello bob5e,
    I am sorry to hear that you are unable to install successfully on your Windows 8.1 with your Officejet 4500 Wireless. I can see that the installation quits on you, giving you an error message. I am going to recommend trying a couple of things to hopefully make the installation successful.
    1. First of all, try installing by using The Printer Install Wizard for Windows which finds the correct driver for your unit and installs it.
    2. If that does not work, please try this next troubleshooting document step by step.

    I hope this helps!

  • I accidently loaded my daughter's itunes and apps into my iphone 4.  How can I delete all of her information and be able to use my itunes login and password again so that I can access my apps?

    I recently purchased an Iphone 4 and was not aware that I had to have separate ITunes account.  My daughter and I share a computer and apparently she is using the main account on the computer.  I went to download some songs from her ITunes and it not only downloaded all of her songs on my phone but also her apps.  I do not want her apps.  When I went to use the apps that I had on my phone before downloading her ITunes information, they would not open and only go back to the main screen.  When I access her apps, they work.  Help!!! How can I restore my settings and just take all of the information that I downloaded from her ITunes out and set my own ITunes on the same computer.  Any help would really be appreciated.

    Create your own user account on your computer, open iTunes, log into your iTunes account on the iTunes Store then sync your iPhone.

  • Which wireless all in one printers work best with ipad 4

    Please help me decide which wireless all in one printer works best with the ipad 4.  I am looking for better photo printing quality, but not the very best.  I am concerned mainly with being able to set up the printer using only my ipad 4 and wireless router, as I do not own a PC with a cd/rom.  I am also interested in which brand of compatible printers is less expensive to buy ink and paper for.  I would prefer a more compact unit.  Thank you in advance for any advice.

    These days I prefer Brother printers. They appear to have engineered their printers with AirPrint as well as OS X compatibility from the start, unlike certain others who appear to have included it as an afterthought.
    Brother's models are inexpensive, their ink is also inexpensive and lasts a long time, and their photo quality is at least as good as anyone else's. They have a two year warranty and lifetime free technical support with people who understand Apple.
    Read the reviews (Amazon for instance, but be sure to read user reviews on the various manufacturer's websites as well) and decide for yourself.
    Brother™ Monochrome Laser Printer and All-in-One models now support AirPrint.
    Brother™ Color Inkjet All-in-One units now support AirPrint.
    I positively detested every inkjet printer I ever had until I bought the Brother.

  • Printing problem - HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer, Red color fads on 4th copy

    I have an HP HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer, and am trying to print 75 copies of a program for our event. After the first 5-6 pages the RED in my program starts to turn magenta. I have brand new HP ink, and am printing on HP Color Injet Paper. I have renectly replaced the Black/Yellow printhead (at least 6 months ago). At first when I cleaned the printheads, I could print 2 or 3 pages showing my RED color. Then turns back to magenta. When I received the test patterns after cleaning the print heads they are all perfect with no lines.
    What is going on and how can I fix it?
    This question was solved.

    Hi TM1997,
    I understand you have an Officejet 8500 Wireless that is not printing red properly, it keeps turning to magenta. I'm sorry to hear this, but I will definitely do my best to help you!
    As I'm sure you saw, when replacing the black and yellow printhead, that there are two printheads in the Officejet 8500 and the second one controls the magenta and cyan. I would suggest that you first have a look through this Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues document. You can also manually clean your printhead with the steps in this 'The Following Printhead Appears to be Missing or Damaged' or 'The Following Printhead has a Problem... document.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!!

  • I have a HP office Jet 4500 wireless All- In One, how do I delete the customer participat​ion program

    Hi
    The customer Participation Program is taking up so much space that I want to remove it from my laptop.
    I have a HP Office Jet 4500 wireless All In One. When I attempt to remove it I get a message that says if I remove the program
    my device will no longer work.. How can I safely remove it without damaging my equiptment from working?

    couple of questions about this:
    Are you scanning from the printer, or with software on the computer? If from the computer, are you initiating the scan from Windows, HP software, or Word? 
    If you put a legal size document in the feeder, and press scan, unless the defaults have been changed to letter size, it should scan the entire legal size sheet. You should be able to go into the settings and change that if the default has been set to letter.

  • Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-In-One Windows 8 driver not working

    Hello!
    I recently got a new Dell Inspiron computer running the 64-bit version of Windows 8, and I have an Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-In-One Printer from a long time ago. I don't have the disc version of the driver, since I purchased the printer before Windows 8 came out, so I tried to download it from the HP website. Whenever I try to run it, however, it says that it is extracting, but once the extract is finished, nothing happens. The Installation Wizard doesn't pop up, and there is no error message explaing it. Help please?
    Thanks!
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Can I check if your Officejet Pro 8500 is A909 or A910?  Alternatively, you can install the class driver built into Windows 8 to print to your printer.  There are also a couple of Windows Store apps (HP AiO Remote and HP Scan and Capture) that would work with your printer.
    I work for HP.

  • Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer - A909g printhead

    The printer has not been 100% for a few weeks. It would align the printhead fine. When printing, it didn't always print everything - one time blues would be missing, another black would be missing. Received a message saying the ink was out of date. Picked up new ink yesterday, installed it and the printer went thru it's normal routine - cleaning and aligning. It would print the page which was not good and then realign again.
    I read up on how to change the printheads. Problem is the printheads are stuck over to the right. I have pressed the * button and done anything else I could find. What do I do now?

    Hey @carolinva,
    I understand that you're having print quality printhead related issues on your HP Officejet 8500 Wireless All-in-One Printer. I would like to work with you today in resolving the issue of not being able to remove your Printheads. Now I understand that you have already tried new cartridges and run the cleaning and aligning on the product to no avail. At this point you have determined that the printheads are defective.
    Just so you are aware there are two printheads in your product. There is a Black and Yellow Printhead and a Cyan and Magenta Printhead. Because your quality issue is affecting blues and blacks than both printheads may be defective. The printheads run for about $64.99 a piece plus tax in the United States. Also, there is a chance that you could replace both printheads and the issue not be resolved because it's a hardware failure of your ink system. Therefore, the next step would be to replace the printer. New printers do not use the same ink systems as your Officejet 8500 printer so the Printheads would do you no good if you have to replace your product.
    Part Number for HP 940 Black and Yellow Printhead: C4900a
    Part Number for HP 940 Magenta and Cyan Printhead: C4901a
    I'm going to provide you steps on how to properly remove the printheads in your product. Because your printheads failed to initially move to the left I'm going to have you start by running a power reset.
    Step 1: Power Reset:
    With your printer powered on, disconnect your power cable.
    After 30 seconds, plug your power cable back in to the printer.
    Your printer should turn on automatically.
    Once the printer returns to the ready state, follow the steps below.
    Replacing the Printhead for HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One Printer Series (A909)
    Please let me know if the steps provided resolve your issue. Should you have further issues be sure to let me know. Good luck!

  • Scanning to Computer, HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless All in one Printer A909g

    I am unable to scan to computer with Win 8.1 using my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless all in one Printer A909g.  I can scan to email.  The system says my drivers and software are up to date.  When trying to scan to computer all I get is a blank scan file with no scan number (Scan_Doc0054) as I used to with Vista.  In Vista I was able to drive the whole process from my computer.  When scanning to email now I have to drive it from my printer as opposed to the computer.
    I restarted an old computer running Vista and the 'scan to computer' function is operational.  As far as I am aware there are no other functional problems with the printer.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.  Thank you.

    Hi John046,
    I am sorry to hear that did not work for you, I do have some more options for you to try:
    Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
    Disable any antivirus programs. Windows Defender - Turn On or Off in Windows 8.
    Disable any firewalls. Disable firewall Windows 8.
    Re-install using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
    If that does not resolve your issue, please call our phone support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. Country-language selector.
