NDISWRAPPER module supposedly not loading

This is actually pretty funny.  Whenever I boot my computer, it says FATAL: NDISWRAPPER module not found, or something to that effect.  However, I still have perfectly working network access using my internet card, which utilizes ndiswrapper.  So, I was wondering if this is a bug and saying that the module was failing to load.  I have it listed in my rc.conf and in my modprobe.conf, and the only other module I have loading is truecrypt, and that loads just fine.
Any ideas on how to fix this message?

Okay, I did not know that. I just assumed since nvidia had a problem and loading nvram fixed it, that nv stood for nvidia. So what's the deal here? Why does this problem exist?
falconindy wrote:Uhhh no but it's still an nvidia card...
Yes, I know that. I just thought it might be relevant, as this card is not very common and that might cause an issue.

  • Ndiswrapper module fails to load on custom kernel

    Hello All, I just compiled my custom kernel, which boots successfully (yay! after at least 10 hours of constant compiling..), however, the ndiswrapper module does not load. I'm wondering, if there's any shortcut to it without using abs to makepkg another version of it for my kernel.
    I have tried to compile the kernel26 (vanilla arch kernel, replacing my default kernel), and changed the pkgrel number from 3 to 4, but this time, the ndiswrapper module still failed to load, the error message was that the format of the kernel module was different.
    I have also tried to remove the package ndiswrapper, and reinstalling it through pacman, but that didn't work out either. The problem still persists.
    Similar problem also applies to my fglrx kernel module. Any advice is appreciated.

    ndiswrapper needs to be built against the new kernel. Use abs to do that and reinstall your new package via pacman.

  • [SOLVED] Many modules are not loaded in the Arch USB key installation.

    Hello!
    I installed Arch Linux on my USB key. I did it few months ago and it worked, I had portable arch.
    Yesterday I decided to make a fresh installation. Unfortunately after booting it from my USB key
    most of the modules were not loaded. Because of that I couldn't start the X server and connect to
    the internet (ethernet card was not detected).
    Even after loading the module which corresponds to my ethernet card manually (modprobe e1000e) it was not
    displayed in the lsmod list.
    I though "maybe I screwed something up during the installation?". To find out I used GParted to copy
    my OS partition (perfectly working Arch Linux installed on the hard drive) to the USB key. Of course I changed the UUID of the USB partition.
    After booting it I was suprised because the situation did not change - modules that are loaded on my main system for some
    reason were not loaded on it's exact copy placed on the USB key.
    I have no idea why my portable OS is acting like this.
    Commands below were executed on another PC so don't look for the e1000e module.

  • Sd card module/driver not loaded anymore

    Hi,
    since a recent update (linux 3.16 maybe ? ) the sd card module is not loaded anymore.
    I have to load it manually :
    modprobe -v rtsx_usb
    (or add a module load in /etc/modules-load.d/)
    My guess is that the "block" hook is not finding it anymore...
    Any idea why ?

    Well, in fact it's a bit weirder...
    I'm loading the rtsx_usb module at boot.
    Then I plug my sd card :

    Weird.

  • Gnome - Modules Do Not Load!

    Hello,
    Just got Arch up and going, and using GDM. Problem -- Most of Gnome's modules do not load! The menu, time, system monitor, and sound work... but BIG ones like desktop switcher, window manager, window list, and so on... do not load! These are important! Anyone else experienceing this, or can help me?
    Also, how do I use pacman not in root (while logged into GDM)?

    Make sure that libxres package is installed
    pacman -S libxres
    for your second questions, if u are asking about switching to root from user, i.e using su, your user must be within the wheel group, under root do
    gpasswd -a username wheel
    u can also use sudo,
    pacman -S sudo
    edit /etc/sudoers and either uncomment the %wheel ALL = (ALL) ALL (Your user must be member of the wheel group), or add at the end of the file, username ALL = (ALL) ALL
    hope that helps

  • Migrated to systemd, modules are not loading [solved]

    Hi;
    I got around to migrating to systemd, but now modules are not loading. I got this setup (i gave full permissions thought it would help):
    $ ls /etc/modules-load.d/
    -rwxrwxrwx  1 root root   20 Dec  2 22:34 vbox*
    $ cat /etc/modules-load.d/vbox
    #vbox
    vboxdrv
    loop
    Any methods of debugging why this doesnt work?
    Thanks.

    the files have to end with ".conf". And -x permissions are certainly not necessary.

  • Lightroom 6 Develope Module will not load files, can't see photos.

    Lightroom Develop Module will not show files. I can see photos in library, film strip. I'm fully paid member of adobe cloud and registered. I've signed out and in again but this did not resolve the issue. The problem happened after moving from lightroom 5.7 to 6. All worked OK in 5.7, using canon 5D mark 2 CR2 files version 2.2. I have photoshop 2015 CC and when I go to camera raw ( version 9 ) The photos do not show here as well. Both are blue boxes with an X across the page just like in the Develop Module in Lightroom 6. Again files could be seen in ACR photoshop 2014. As am using the latest updates of lightroom and photoshop creative Cloud, not sure why I can't see files in the develop module in lightroom and in camera raw in photoshop ?
    By Michael.

    I'm no expert on GPUs and graphics cards, so I suggest you read this thread:
    GPU notes for Lightroom CC (2015)
    My impression. though, is that most people don't experience a huge speed improvement using the GPU, myself included.
    But this will probably change in future versions, at the moment only certain functions in the Develop module use the GPU.
    As for differences in GPU support between Photosop and LR, I assume that PS supports older and less powerful GPUs than Lightroom does.
    Edit: But the bottom line is that LR doesn't support GPU acceleration with you graphics card, so leave it off.

  • [SOLVED] network is not detected r8169 module is not loaded

    Hey there,
    I have problems to get my archlinux server running, it has no network.
    It's a server at kimsufi so I only can chroot in the new installation.
    It looks like the module 'r8169' isn't loaded at start, so it has no network.
    After adding '/etc/modules-load.d/r8169.conf' with 'r8169' inside (w/o quotes) the journalctl says:
    systemd-modules-load[92]: Failed to lookup alias 'r8169': Function not implemented
    The installation is up-to-date, newest kernel.
    I hope you have some ideas how to get that module loaded.
    Greetings
    edit: I tried it just now again and it worked atm. If network will work completely, I will mark this thread as solved.

    I'm sorry that I opened the thread.
    I had built myself a kernel with kdump and had set debug and loglevel=7 parameters.
    Either one of the parameter was bad or my buildprocess was bad.
    Now (with the original kernel) I don't get that error and the module is loading fine.
    I have (after about a month) the server up and running.
    At least I got some new experience.

  • [SOLVED] Module r8169 not loading on boot, can load afterwards...

    I am trying to get the network (r8169) to load, currently it doesn't get detected and putting it in MODULES array doesn't do anything (I don't think anything works in MODULES array for me).
    Was using 2.6.39 kernel, moved to 3.0.0; same problem.
    Once the computer has booted I can easily' sudo modprobe r8169 && sudo dhcpcd eth0' no problems.
    Any ideas on how to get it to work? Thanks in advance.

    Yeah, why on earth are they auto gen'd? I used archboot to install, you?
    Okay, I'll rm them and reboot now.
    I also have a /etc/modprobe.d/framebuffer_blacklist.conf:
    blacklist aty128fb
    blacklist atyfb
    blacklist cirrusfb
    blacklist cyber2000fb
    blacklist kyrofb
    blacklist neofb
    blacklist nvidiafb
    blacklist pm2fb
    blacklist radeonfb
    blacklist rivafb
    blacklist s3fb
    blacklist savagefb
    blacklist sisfb
    blacklist sstfb
    blacklist tdfxfb
    blacklist tridentfb
    blacklist udlfb
    blacklist uvesafb
    blacklist viafb
    blacklist vmlfb
    blacklist vt8623fb
    Do I need to worry about that? I'm currently using Intel G41 915 integrated.

  • Parallel port printer modules not loading autmatically

    According to the wiki entry for CUPS, either the kernel or or a small configuration file in /etc/modules-load (not /etc/modules-load.d) is supposed to automatically load these modules on boot. When I run lsmod I'm finding none of the printer modules (lp, parport, parport_pc) are getting loaded even though the printer is attached and powered up. Any idea why these modules are not loading? They load perfectly well manually with the modprobe command.
    As the wiki specifies, I do have a configuration file in place at /etc/modules-load/printing.conf with the following contents:
    lp
    parport
    parport_pc

    Commenting out the INSTALL lines in modprobe.conf worked perfectly.
    Before that i tried the stock kernel form current and am now using the one from testing. Neither worked with sound while the INSTALL lines were ther.
    What changed?

  • Modules not loading in Flex 4

    Hi All,
    I have migrated my application from Flex 3 to Flex 4. My application has 3 different modules. The modules are not loading when I run my application with Flex 4. Please help me in this respect.
    Thanks in advance,
    Nirmal Kumar Bhogadi

    Hi Nirmal,
    Right click on the project and go in Properties. On the left bar, go in the Flex Modules tab and check if your modules are present there.
    If not, browse your modules from the project and add them one by one.

  • [Solved]Virtualbox kernel module not loaded

    I update my system today and when I try to run Virtualbox...
    WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
    available for the current kernel (3.6.11-1-ARCH) or it failed to
    load. Please reinstall the kernel module virtualbox-host-modules or
    if you don't use our stock kernel compile the modules with
    sudo dkms autoinstall
    You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
    I already had this trouble before and this was the fix
    # modprobe vboxdrv
    But it doesn't work anymore
    Any ideas?
    Edit: This just get fixed by itself when restaring my PC. Sorry

  • [solved] Module bbswitch does not load, cannot disable nvidia

    Hey!
    According to the title I'm unable to load the bbswitch module on load with it's given parameters. I do it the way suggest in the Arch Wiki.
    I'm using linux-ck
    local/linux-ck-corex 3.5.6-1 (ck-corex)
    local/linux-ck-corex-headers 3.5.6-1 (ck-corex)
    local/nvidia-ck-corex 304.51-2 (ck-corex)
    (I heard theat graysky said that there are no problems)
    My /etc/modprobe.d/bbswitch.conf looks like
    options bbswitch load_state=0 unload_state=0
    dmesg|tail -10 outputs:
    [ 121.351475] bbswitch: version 0.4.2

    [ 135.343414] pci 0000:01:00.0: >power state changed by ACPI to D3
    Any suggestions? Am I missing something? I'm thinking of adding bbswitch into modules-load.d and add the parameters as kernel parameters in grub but I'm not happy with that solution…
    even if it's the "cleaner" version, imho.
    Cheers!
    Help is appreciated, thanks. :-)
    Edit: If I load bbswitch manually, I have to restart bumblebee to turn the graphics off. I cannot disable the card via bbswitch suggested in bbswitch git repo with command: tee /proc/acpi/bbswitch <<<OFF.
    Tried via modules-load.d now and grub boot parameters. The module is loaded but the card is turned on…

    Hey Lekensteyn! First of all, thanks for your answer. :-)
    I disabled the nvidia module now. My /etc/modprobe.d now looks like
    /etc/modprobe.d
    total 20K
    drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Oct 9 19:32 .

    nvidia_blacklist.conf:
    blacklist nvidia
    nouveau_blacklist.conf:
    blacklist nouveau
    bbswitch.conf:
    options bbswitch load_state=0 unload_state=0
    There is only one more problem left… the bbswitch module does not load on startup. If I # modprobe bbswitch manually the nvidia card is turned off and it also seems the bumblebeed daemon is not started… I have no idea why. It worked with that setup all the time… not much has changed… imho nothing.
    Are there any logs I could post or what can I do to eventually fix this problem.
    Thanks for the help in advance!
    EDIT: I can start the bumblebeed.service manually. + Why are the modules from modprobe.d not loaded? My mkinitcpio.conf.
    EDIT2: Found it why bbswitch module wasn't loaded… http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.a … eral/44986… testing this one right now.
