-SOLVED- wvdial appears to work well...but ping doesn't work

wvdial dial up correctly, gets DNS from my ISP, but after that...nothing. I can`t use the console, so my "trick": ctrl + z , bg wvdial ...
Then I try "arch -Sy" (fails to retrieve information from the servers) or ping "ping www.archlinux.org" but nothing happens. When I finish wvdial, it puts time and conection...
Well, ... :oops: somebody can help me? Thanks.

This is an extract from messages.log. The only thing that may be it's wrong is: when wvdial starts, the modules and daemon necessaries are used without put them in rc.conf; arch-linux autodetected the modem??? Because I don't put anything into rc.conf....may be this is the elemental error :oops:
I try "ping www.yahoo.com" but nothing happens. When it connects to internet, wvdial should return to shell?

All is right with my subscription. I just install the suite one time on my old mac.

[SOLVED] Asus 900 : ALSA plays sound, but microphone doesn't work

Hi,
This week I installed Arch Linux (kernel 3.1.8-1-ARCH) on my Asus 900 with HDA Intel Realtek ALC662 rev1 sound card. The wiki and google and existing forum posts have been good for most issues, but I'm stumped on ALSA configuration. So here's my first forum post for advice.
I configured sound OK following advice in the wiki and twiddling settings with alsamixer, through both the internal speaker and through the headphones, but I can't get internal or external microphone to work. I'm testing with:
arecord -d 3 junk.wav
then when I play back via:
aplay junk.wav
there is only soft static (with audible soft clicks at the start and end).
(Other files like /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav play fine.)
alsamixer recognizes and reports my HDA Intel card, Realtek ALC662 rev1.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Alsa has several suggestions of options for the snd-hda-intel module.
Different pages suggest different places, which was confusing until I discovered that they can go in any file in /etc/modprobe.d so I'm putting them in /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf .
I added
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1
with no luck.
I have tried various model=XXX parameters (based on many suggestions found googling for Asus 900, alsa, ALC662, etc problems):
options snd-hda-intel model=auto
options snd-hda-intel model=asus
options snd-hda-intel model=asus-laptop
options snd-hda-intel model=laptop
options snd-hda-intel model=ref
options snd-hda-intel model=asus-mode1
options snd-hda-intel model=asus-mode2
options snd-hda-intel model=asus-mode8
and I do
rmomd snd-hda-intel && modprobe snd-hda-intel
after each modification, which makes a little click in the speakers as the module is restarted.
I don't know what the differences between asus-mode1, asus-mode2 etc are supposed to be - I've failed to find clear documentation about them, but AFAIK they seem to be the only valid model choices, unlike stuff like laptop, asus, etc.
I find asus-mod1 etc at https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/ … _realtek.c and various other webpages.
I found they vary the items presented by alsamixer but none of the 8 asus-modeN values helped me get the mic working. (The only obvious change was asus-mode8 made my headphone stop working, unlike asus-mod1 through asus-mod7.)
I looked at /var/log/kernel.log when doing the snd-hda-intel module reload for various values of model= and they all look similar to this:
snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A disabled
snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1b.0: irq 43 for MSI/MSI-X
snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1b.0: setting latency timer to 64
hda_code: ALC662 rev1: BIOS auto-probing
input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input24
input: HDA Intel Mic as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input25
input: HDA Intel Headphone as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input26
(Note the emphasized line about BIOS auto-probing only comes up when not using model= or when trying various suggested model values that don't seem to be actually defined for ALC662, e.g. stuff like model=asus, etc.)
Here's a list of alsamixer settings I used for various models. (Note I also tried muting and raising various higher boost levels, and when there's an Internal Mic or F-Mic item I tried various combinations. The following are just what seem the most plausible settings to me.)
model=asus

Has anyone got sound recording working on an Asus 900 with HDA Intel Realtek ALC662 rev1 ...?
Thanks for any help! (And for feedback whether this post gave too much info or not enough, or other suggestions for posting such requests. Sorry if this was too long, but it seemed better to err on the side of too much info...)

Hello,
I don't have your soundcard but maybe the following information is helpful, though:
Install the linux-docs package, then you have some information about your soundcard drivers in "/usr/src/linux-*/Documentation/sound/alsa/". Exspecially "HD-Audio.txt" and "HD-Audio-Models.txt" might be important. In the Models file it is stated that just the "asus-mode*" are legitimate model parameters for your soundcard and in the HD-Autio.txt file it is more or less said that trial and error the modules is the way to go to find the "correct module". Further there is a section
Capture Problems
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The capture problems are often because of missing setups of mixers.
Thus, before submitting a bug report, make sure that you set up the
mixer correctly. For example, both "Capture Volume" and "Capture
Switch" have to be set properly in addition to the right "Capture
Source" or "Input Source" selection. Some devices have "Mic Boost"
volume or switch.
When the PCM device is opened via "default" PCM (without pulse-audio
plugin), you'll likely have "Digital Capture Volume" control as well.
This is provided for the extra gain/attenuation of the signal in
software, especially for the inputs without the hardware volume
control such as digital microphones. Unless really needed, this
should be set to exactly 50%, corresponding to 0dB -- neither extra
gain nor attenuation. When you use "hw" PCM, i.e., a raw access PCM,
this control will have no influence, though.
It's known that some codecs / devices have fairly bad analog circuits,
and the recorded sound contains a certain DC-offset. This is no bug
of the driver.
So check your mixer, here and here are nice tutorials.
Greetings
matse

Well, it could be that your carrier doesn't have a signal when it looses its signal. You could try resetting network settings which might help - Settings/General/Reset/Reset Network Settings. You'll need to set up any wi-fi networks you connect too again. If you're still having issues, contact your carrier.
Good luck!

Hello Kerrigaj,
After a re-install of OS X 10.5.8 uninstalled the E71 in iSync and moved it out of the bluetooth-device list first and completely re-installed it using the bluetooth manager (SystemPreferences/Hardware).
No extra thirdparty-software involved and ever since no problems.
Goodluck - hope it works for you.

Time machine working well but I can't find backed up files fast enough?

Time machine working well but I can't find backed up files fast enough. When I look in Time machine backups I'm looking in a folder and I can't remember what it was, but I go back in time and the finder goes from 98 files to 100 files, how do I find which 2 files were the ones deleted? Going back and forth from past to present is a pain! I need to figure out which file it was faster? Have any ideas?
With the new "Find" feature it actually highlights what you are looking for such as in Safari. Does Time Machine have a feature to highlight the files/folders that were deleted really from the present?

It sounds like you aren't looking for any file in particular, but notice a change in number of files and would like to know what changed rather than knowing that a specific file is now missing.
that's a good point, and it appears that TM is not setup to describe the changes over time. If I recall correctly, it has a plug-in ability, so maybe somebody will fill in that void.

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues. I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion.

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.
I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion. I now want to fix the underlying problem.
I'm not running any weird background processes and in my energy saver settings I've tagged "put the hard disk to sleep when possible:, "allow power button to put computer to sleep" and "automatically reduce brigthness". All pretty standard.
Is there anyone who can give me some pointers ?

Today I solved the same problem for my iMac running Snow Leopard. See https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3008791#15947706. The method may help you, too.
For me it was the DynDNS Updater preventing my iMac from automatically entering sleep mode.
To my knowledge the cause of this sleep problem can only be a peripheral device or a process. So I suggest to first unplug all peripherals and test whether that's the cause. If not, I suggest to terminate one process after another and to test automatic entering of sleep mode after each. Start with user processes; continue with system process if necessary.
At least that's the way I found the offending process. Fortunately, I was able to change the configuration of that process to allow again automatic entering of sleep mode.
Good luck!

Don't know any 'automatic' way - but, i have "Fetch Headers only" set on each of my 'secondary accounts'.
With varying internet service, manual "Get Messages" is probably the "Best Practice" because you will know how good your service is before you even try.
maybe set "Check for new messages every 'n' minutes" to different times
(3 minutes, 6 minutes, etc.) on each 'secondary' account.

Epson 960 works well but can't access printer ink utility

I set up an Airport Express wireless network last night and hooked up my Epson 960. It works well but I can't access the printer ink utility. The printer is missing from the utility listing so I can't clean the heads or check ink levels.
Any suggestions or experiences that may help?
Thanks!

Thanks, that was what I was having to do.
It is kind of misleading to claim wireless printing capability only to have one way communication. Hopefully Apple will "fix" this issue in the future.
Makes it very inconvenient when printing photos or DVDs as I always do a nozzle check first to make sure nothing is clogged and keep from wasting a good (and expensive) sheet of photo paper or a burned DVD.
