Netcard Via Rhine ][

When I install subj driver the machine is froze at second stage:
# pkgadd -d /tmp/fets.pkg
After pressing "1" system is not responsible.
Part of fets.txt (driver is fets.pkg + fets.txt ;)
   # cp /floppy/floppy0/fets.pkg /tmp
     2. Run 'pkgadd' utility to add the driver software to system.
       # pkgadd -d /tmp/fets.pkg
         => Select "1 fets VIA Rhine Family Fast Ethernet Adapter Driver"
            to add the driver package to the system.
         => quit
     3. Create or rename the /etc/hostname.XXX# to /etc/hostname.fets#
        The '#' of filename /etc/hostname.fetsX is the instance number of
     driver. You can find this instance by examine the output of program
     'dmesg'.
     4. Shutdown and reboot the system.After manual reboot system is died: froze at initialize netcard...

Can't get eth0 to work (via-rhine)

First some info: I'm using a Biostar M7VIG Pro (via-rhine NIC) motherboard with a Duron CPU.
When starting the network 'dhcp' is 'busy' until it times out. What makes this strange is I ready intalled Rehat on the same system without any problems!
I also tried using 'dhclient' but it times out too...
Any ideas?

Actually for better/faster testing I was manually (/etc/rc.d/network start) starting the network. The configuration is NOT the problem, I did a couple more test and it is the '#CONFIG_SMP=y' option built into the kernel causing the problem! I also found that if you pass the 'NOAPIC' parameter to the stock ArchLinux kernel (via grub) that the network will also start fine. It make me think it's a interrupt related issue…
It's always easier added (building) to a working system then trying to debug a non-working system. I think the initial installed kernel should be changed to one that is safest (least problematic features) for most systems. How about making a separate SMP-Kernel like you do for SCSI?

VIA Rhine NDIS Driver FOR NORTON GHOST

Hi,
I've got MS KT4AV mobo with integrated LAN (driver is VIA Rhine II Fast ethernet).
I have all the drivers on driver CD and you can download them from numerous sites but it's very hard to get the NDIS / DOS driver.
I need to create disc to boot up norton ghost 2003 to work peer to peer.
I've used numerous other LAN cards and drivers and there NDIS2 drivers have always contained an oemsetup file for with setup information.
All the VIA drivers I've found have no NDIS2 folder and the oemsetup file is huge and is not recognised by ghost when i try to setup a NDIS2 bootable disc.
Below is the setup info i had in with my previous SMC network card NDIS2 driver (which worked fine), but with the VIA Rhine driver the information is about 20 pages long and isn't recognised by norton (and it's not in a NDIS file anyway, it just comes with all the driver files).
SMC1255="SMC EZ Card 10/100 (SMC1255TX)",0,ndis,ethernet,real,SMC1255,SMC1255_nif
; Install Sections
[SMC1255]
devdir=?:SMC1255.dos
device=SMC1255.dos,@devdir\SMC1255.dos

param=SLOT,"Slot number",int,"1,4,1",1
param=MEDIA,"Media Type",text,"UTP,UTP_FD,UTP_100,UTP_100FD,AUTODETECT","AUTODETECT"
Unfortunately I'm not familiar with the correct commands so wanted norton ghost to setup the disc (it always has before).
I found a VIA Rhine NDIS2 drive at the link below but this has no oemsetup file and when i just load the DOS file it doesn't work.

Any ides would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob

well..i still haven't solved it yet, coz Ghost doesn;t "like" the DOS driver...I e-mailed nvidia as well but its becoming a ping-pong match.

My question to them:
I have already downloaded the NDIS.zip as directed by your site to use with Norton Ghost 2003.
There are only 2 DOS files:
NVNDIS2.DOS & NDIS.DOS
I tried building the Ghost Network Boot Disk with each of the DOS files & each time I ger this error:
ERROR: 33 Unable to bind.
I let the Ghost Wizard do the disk build tho' - please see attached build sheet.

[via-rhine]: no network after suspend/resume

Hello everyone,
I have recently moved my desktop PC from Ubuntu 10.10 to Arch, and a problem concerning network came out.
When the computer comes back from S3 state, ethernet doesn't work anymore.
When googling around, I found out that this issue is quite old, but found no fix for it.
Any ideas?

A guess: Maybe unloading and re-loading your ethernet modules will make ethernet work again. If yes, this should be easy to automate to happen every time you resume (e.g. if you are using hibernate-script, there is the mighty config file).
A piece of advice: whenever you have a hardware-related problem, you should provide the exact model/specs (e.g. in this case what network card you have).

Setting up Network & Internet via Router on Solaris 10 (x86)

The problem that I have seems to be a very common one. As a regular windows user I have never had any reason to use any other Operating Systems, however, studying oracle on Sun Systems through university has meant that unless I get my own Solaris machine set up I will be unable to work on my assignments form home.
This being said when it comes to anything other than windows I am a little stuck. The interface of Solarix 10 is relatively straight forward and I have managed to set the majority of the system up, however, one area that seems to baffle me is the network side of things.
I have spent the past few hours looking over this forum and bashing google but I have had no luck. From what I can tell Solaris is not picking up my Network Interface Card (MSI KT4AV) built-in.
I connect to the internet via a D-Link DSL 604GT. The network consists of 3 wired connections and about 5 wireless laptops/pc's and such.
Having said that I have searched for drivers for my card with no luck. Is there anyway to confirm that my network card isnt being detected or is this not the case.
If you want more information about my problem then please let me know.

BTW I also dug up this info about the VIA VT6103 LAN controller that according to the MSI site your mobo uses.
according to this thread
http://forums.viaarena.com/messageview.aspx?catid=6&threadid=66105&enterthread=y
You can go to the windows update site and it will scan and detect the controller and load the driver, not sure how that works but it is in the thread. Also if you are fealing up to it according to the thread you could go to
http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/
and #3 is a driver reported by some to work for the VIA VT6103 LAN controller which is known as the Via Rhine II Fast Ethernet Adapter.
I myself am using #17 the nfo driver for my nvidia nforce2 built in nic. The afore mentioned Install check tool reported the nifty web site as the location of my third party driver. It works like a champ.

KM2M Combo -L MS 6738 MB with VIA NIC

When I try to install Norton Internet Security or any other Firewall the TCPIP install on my WIN 98 SE goes away. The NIC is not enabled after the install. I try to reinstall the NIC and it does not work (will not install.) Teh adapter is a VIA Rhine II Fast Ethernet Adapter and the live update says i have all of the correct drivers.
Has anybody else ran into this problem?
I with a shareware fire wall and had the same problem so I went with the Norton Personal FW and now I find I have the same problem so I thend to thisnk it is a problem with the board and the NIC.
The MB is a KM2M Combo-L http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=411

Ok, thank you ... I have seen that information.
The strange thing is that there it figures that the motherboard supports Duron Morgan from 1.1 Ghz (anything says about the Duron Spitfire) and, however, today I have placed a Duron Spitfire 750 Mhz and this if it is recognized as such!
I believe that this reveals that a deficiency exists in the regressive compatibility of CPU's of this mobo!...

...loaded the newest driver my pc come up fine my os see the nic card with no trouble no error it gets a ip but is unable to communicate in the network...
maralv I had a similar problem recently. Everything LOOKED ok wrt IPs; the NIC could ping-and-be-pinged, but would not appear on the Windows network.
The problem went away when I uninstalled and reinstalled the NIC (VIA Rhine II) driver, reverting to the earlier MSI driver (sorry I don't recall if from the MSI disk or from the MSI website or from the VIA website--I will look).
EDIT: I'm now running the driver from viaarena.com. It's called Version 41 dated 06-May-05 and v3.44 shows-up in driver properties.
I had gotten an "updated" driver from the MS Windows website, and though it didn't fail right away, the only thing I can think is that it might be buggy in some way.

Flash not working and distorting desktop (LINKS TO PHOTOS)

I have tried everything I can think of. Reinstalled Drivers,
IE, Firefox (same issues with both) tried Flash 8, Flash 9 tried
different order of installs. I have been to S3 site, etc,
This site used to work, but then it had issues. I can not be
sure what changed, though I have tried to revert drivers, versions
...everything to solve this.
I am trying to include all info to help you help me. If I
repeat something forgive me as these are a collection of posts that
I have copied.
NEWEST BIOS and drivers are installed (and have been
reinstalled)
MEMTEST PASSED
Chkdsk passed with 0 errors.
DXdiag shows no errors
No forced hardware or other issues
All devices up to date
XP home SP2 all updates installed.
I have tried driver verifier with vid drivers
I have used flash uninstaller.

This is the video as after it goes bad. It starts out fine,
maybe I see a bit of lag first, maybe not.
http://www.moonfest.com/images/S3/vid1.jpg
This is how my desktop is afterwords. New programs and
screens render fine, but the Desktop and icons are screwed even
after a refresh until reboot. Firefox behaves the same. Also the
sound gets very scratchy.

Youtube works fine though.
Machine
Averatec 5400
This is basically the system running 2800+M 32 bit
http://www.amdboard.com/fic_an5w.html
Symptoms first noticed in a very basic card game, now video
like at NBC past episodes will produce artifacts and totally ruin
the desktop as well as effect the sound.
I have tried to clean, then install factory drivers,
VIDEO614100138 (K8M800_16944806_XP_wIShld_logod) then the newest
ones k8m800_wxp_logo_220001j.
I have tried with Firefox, IE7. I have tried flash 8 and 9.c.
Looked in DXdiag (no issues except it shows 9.c and the S3tray
shows 9.b) S3 info shows Bios version 90.f7.00.27 (5/17/2004)
I have tried disabling hardware acceleration, all the way
down.
Tried driver cleaner while changing drivers, and I can't
think of anything else.
What next?
Video breaks with severe artifacts, sound gets scratchy, then
desktop has artifacts which can not be refreshed away, only a
reboot fixes until I run video again.
Bios limits 32MB shared at restart, but even when I move to
64 (stays till restart) issue happens.
System infoMemtest passed. I lowered Shared RAM to MB
(lowest).
The bios defaults to 32MB at every boot. I have tried moving
it to 64MB without success.
System has 768 MB installed.

I also have a thread in the S3 forum that is a duplicate of
this post
http://chromezone.s3graphics.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=39&topic=202.msg912#msg91 2

ActiveX Controls were enabled when I had the problem. I ultimately just did a full Reset on IE, which fixed it. I should also correct an important mistake in my original post -- Flash was not the root cause of my problem, it was HTML5 video NOT Flash video that wasn't working on YouTube. So, the real problem was that IE was launching the HTML5 version of the site instead of the Flash version. I don't know why or what I had done that was causing the problem, but "Internet Options" | "Advanced" Tab | "Reset..." button including deleting personal settings fixed whatever it was.

[Solved] Gnome-shell text turned to rectangles after botched upgrade

Hi all,
I've run into a problem that I just can't solve, so I was wondering if somebody with a lot of expertise could help out. My system has a couple of stability issues; it freezes up every few days, and I have to make a hard reboot (I think it's related to the video card, but I haven't had the funds to go get a better one yet). The last time it froze was during a pacman upgrade, and I had to reboot. At the new boot, after logging in, all of the gnome-shell letters turned to rectangles (see screenshot), and I had a bunch of other errors. I ran another upgrade Sync with pacman and rebooted; that took care of the errors, but the font problems still remained. The interesting thing is that the gdm window has no problems, I can see the icons on the top right just fine, and the date renders perfectly. It's only when I log in when the blocks occur, and they only occur on gnome-shell panel text (and on everything under Activities).
I have a 32-bit system that's fully migrated to systemd with open source radeon drivers. Here's some output of journalctl for the current boot, with stuff unrelated to the gnome-shell display removed (e.g. NetworkManager, UFW, etc). However, I didn't find any new errors compared to logs from before the upgrade.

Nov 17 12:27:33 Whitcomb systemd-logind[229]: Removed session 1.
I tried using gnome-tweak tool to fiddle around with the fonts, but that didn't help, none of the fonts would render correctly. Cantarell, which I'm assuming is the gnome-shell font, is still in /etc/fonts/conf.avail, so I don't think that the font file itself went missing. I made the fontconfig update a while ago, and that didn't cause any problems.
I also heard that there were problems with xorg-server, so I downgraded xorg-server, pixman, and cairo to their previous versions, but that didn't help either. EDIT: I've also done a pacman -Syyf gnome-shell to try and reinstall gnome-shell. That also didn't work.
I've run out of things to try. If someone else was more familiar with the workings of gnome-shell fonts, or had a better idea of how to debug, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.
UPDATE: I found that /etc/fonts/conf.avail/31-cantarell.conf existed, but was empty. After doing a pacman -Syyf cantarell-fonts, they went right back to normal!

Problem disappeared.
I'm not sure, but i think installing xf86-video-modesetting helped to fix this issue.
I had an error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log like this:
(EE) Failed to load module "modesetting" (module does not exist, 0)

D-Link DFE-530TX not working.

I have got this problem since i bought this Ethernet adapter. I mainly boght it, because I wanted to run OpenBSD. But it just doesn't work. Theres i light when I plug my ethernet cable to it, but that it just about it.
I have tried to disable my onboard ethernet controller (VIA Technologies Inc|VT3119 Gigabit Ethernet Controller), and add "pci=routeirq". But that hasn't worked at all.

Could anyone tell me the problem? I am not strong in this kind of hardware.

Thanks, Tim. However, I'm a consultant; it's not always my call. I just wanted to share what I had discovered, so someone else might benefit.
Your tip would be best submitted at Mac OSX Hints as the info would remain publicly available. Where as this thread will be archived in a few months.
I also do some mac consultancy and only recommend using tried and tested products that work out of the box without the need for installing extra drivers. Realtek chipsets have worked for the longest time and are found on the the cheapest of generic NICS.

Locale and "file not found" errors in pacman

Hello. I have just reinstalled Arch on my system (yes, wanted to start all again!) and this weird error happens every time I try to do anything under pacman:
warning: current locale is invalid; using default "C" locale
resolving dependencies...
error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/local//wget-1.10.2-2/depends: No such file or directory
...and the last line repeats itself many times. After that, pacman works just fine.
If it might help, here is my pacman.conf:
# /etc/pacman.conf
# See the pacman manpage for option directives
# GENERAL OPTIONS
[options]
LogFile = /var/log/pacman.log
HoldPkg = pacman glibc

Just let me tell that the only thing I did after the actual install is "pacman -Syu". Sorry, I have no clue about what's happening. Any help would be appreciated.

To fix your locales, see http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_locales -- in specific, you'll need to uncomment the en_US.utf8 locale at least, since that's the one that's specified in your rc.conf

Uhm... Sorry my language, im Italian ..

I have not ever had a need for gcc.
I've never found myself in circumstances where I needed to use it.
Were there any instructions in that download from SunFreeWare?
I'm not going to download it to check.
My x86 system has had Sol-7, Sol-8, Sol-9 and Solaris 10 installed to it.
I have used the same PCI ethernet card for all those distros.
It is an old DEC-21140 10/100 card I purchased at a computer swap meet
for US$ 2.00, six years ago. I use it because every OS recognizes it natively.
I've experimented with a 3COM 3C905-TX, and that one is just as compatible.
I acquired the 3COM card for US$ 5.00 at another computer swap meet.
It was more expensive, so I'm "saving" it. (Saving for what? Who knows ! )
Perhaps you could consider using a completely different Ethernet adapter.
Read the Hardware Compatibility List and use hardware that's recognized natively.

Buffer overrun is about to get run over

Are you receiving the now infamous buffer overrun issues when viewing videos with QuickTime?
I am, too. I am sick of it. I am even more sick of Apple's failure to address the issue. This has to be the most common problem posted in the forums, yet the QuickTime support site returns zero results for a search for buffer overrun.
That is going to change. I am a software engineer and I solve these sorts of problems for a living. I need QuickTime to work. I am going to use the resources at my disposal and do my best to determine what the problem is since Apple is apparently incapable of doing such.
You can help. I am looking for data to help identify what the source(s) of the problem may be.
IF you are one of the unfortunate souls that receives the "Buffer overrun detected!" issue while watching videos in QuickTime, please provide your data as a response to this posting to aid in my research. I know this is a lot of work, but if you are as frustrated as I am, won't it be worth the hope of a solution?
Here is what I am looking for as well as the answers for my system. If you don't know how to find out any of these things, reply and I'll help you out.
