Installation issues / Siemens Gigaset 475 setup problem
« on: May 02, 2011, 04:30:40 am »
Hi,
I have just purchased the Siemens Gigaset 475 package.
I have joined upto  Sipgate and retrieved all relevant information.
Inputted information wizard/devices/phone lines.
When I try to make a call I get the women "your call cannot be connected as dialled"
When I log into sipgate website I can see a record of my dial history.

looking at :   http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Sipgate      example I notice that the outgoing and ingoing setting look different to mine
can someone please confirm weather I need to copy the information in the sipgate wiki into my settings?

if not I seem to be getting an error on my logs:

Hi,

Under
Advanced>config>device>core there is a zwave tab in the left hand side list

under this...

ZWave embedded climate interface
ZWave embedded security interface

Pluto does not seem to automatically recognise my associated wall plug switch which it usually does and includes in this list.

So I proceeded to add child device, I have tried wall outlet and on/off switch. Then done reload router. No response from testing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
DAn

Hi,

I have just tried to update. Now when I start up AV wizard and plug in my Aeon USB dongle, I get a message

"Error getting data: ZWave interface not responding"

I proceeded to reformat and do a fresh install with the same problem occuring. When I look for logs under Var/log/pluto there are no logs for zwave.

any ideas?

Cheers
Dan

Installation issues / duwi dimmer switch
« on: March 25, 2011, 01:29:09 pm »
hi,

I am trying to install a duwi dimmer switch found here :

http://www.uk-automation.co.uk/products/Z%252dWave-Dimmer-Switch-by-Duwi.html

I have followed the installation instructions here

http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/ZWave

-I have added a child device
-template dimmer switch

I retrieved node ID from Wizard>devices>lights page under Port/Channel. THis number was 1

I have tried leaving the node as 1 with no output change

I have then tried following the instructions for adding a right hand paddle dimmer. addingin 1/2 into Port/Channel number. with No output.

My logs under /var/log/pluto/36_ZWave are:

I also have a homepro wall switch plug that works fine so I know the Aeon USB is working ok.

I have managed to get green light when associating switch with usb stick so that is ok

Does anyone have any idea in what my problem might be.

Thanks
Dan

Hi J.

That worked a treat. Now have connection with that NIC. Thanks ever so much for all your help and guidance over the last week, you to Mat, good luck with getting that core up and running again. Much appreciated for all your efforts.

With all the headaches I have learn quite a lot on commands through terminal.

Nice one

Hi J,

i do a rmmod r8169.

Still shows r8169 is loaded ?

modprobe r8168
FATAL: Module r8168 not found.

thought this might be because i opened it in nano. Copied a fresh copy from this forum. copied into net folder. Still same result...


Thought id show this, privileges seem different for the 2 files?

/lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers/net# ls -l       
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 156712 2011-02-18 23:38 r8168.ko         
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 317338 2011-02-18 22:50 r8169.ko         

I blacklisted  r8169 

then ran:

cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist                                     
blacklist 8169                       

update-initramfs -k all -u
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-17-generic
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-7-generic

ran Mats initramfs update, I could not get yours to run

update-initramfs -u -k `uname -r` is uname = my user name? or do I type in word for word?



even after blacklisting r8169, it still shows up here:

root@DAn-PC:~# dmesg | grep -i eth

hi,

just to confirm, I am putting 8168 & 8169 into net folder. I have not blacklisted 8169 nor have I rmmod 8169.
I see what you mean, your ishw Network -C  shows 8168. have you blacklisted or rmmod 8169?

using ls -l now instead to check file size. I do not open file with nano. Thanks for that tip.

Installation issues / Re: realtek 8168 driver issue
« on: February 18, 2011, 08:17:34 pm »
I notice using lshw -C Network it states version 6. While Mat's lshw -C Network states version 3. I wonder if the difference in versions mean the need for different drivers?

Also the obvious of ifconfig not showing an interface connection for eth0.

Also these are the steps I took through terminal:
                              
                                          
   13  cd /home/daniel/Documents                                  
   14  ls                                                        
   15  tar xvf r8169.tar.bz2                                      
   16  ls                                                        
   17  nano r8169.ko                                                                  
   20  cp /home/daniel/Documents/r8169.ko /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers
   21  cd                                                                              
   22  cd /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers                                
   23  ls
   24  nano r8169.ko
   25  ifconfig
   26  cp /home/daniel/Documents/r8168.ko /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers
   27  cd /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers
   28  ls
   31  cd /etc
   33  cd modprobe.d
   34  ls
   35  nano blacklist
   36  update-initramfs -k all -u
   37  rmmod r8169

Just incase there is user error.

cheers

just noticed I copied file in drivers folder not net folder.

watch this space.....

Hi J,

Thank you for the tip on ls, given me food for thought there. Next job on my list of many is to learn the power of the letters and signage after commands. The joys of being a newbie... ;D   

I can confirm r8168.ko and r8169.ko files.

Yes the LED lights up.

I have checked the ethernet switch by connecting switch to my wireless sky broadband router with an ethernet cable, then connecting my laptop to 1 of the 5 ports on the switch with a 2nd ethernet cable. I receive an internet connection.

The cable I use connects to my laptop which has gigbit ethernet and supplies internet connection no problem. Have tried a 2nd cable, all good.

Just want to make sure I have explored all options from command line with making sure everything is working ok.

Is there any other command results we can look at: 

lshw -C Network
ifconfig
lspci -nn
sudo dhclient eth0

Cheers
Dan

Hi folks,

I have just

Stripped the PCI NIC out of my core.
Reformatted PC.
Reinstalled Kubuntu
tested card by trying to connect to the internet . no joy...

Copied r8168 AND r1869 into the /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers/net folder

Just to confirm the method I used to copy r8168 and 9 was:

 "cp r8169.file.location  /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers/net"

I checked the r8169 file before and after with nano. the file you supplied J has a lot more lines. can confirm the r8169 file was succussfully copied.

Restarted PC tested internet connection. still no joy.

Followed method of blaclisting r8169 of :

added r8169 to blacklist
update-initramfs -k all -u
rmmod r8169

Restarted PC still no joy.

Recon I must have a dud onboard NIC.

Mat I feel your pain with having to go through the entire reformat route...
I am fresh as fresh can be with the process of reinstalling. if there are any tasks you might be rusty on let me know.

Cheers Lads
 
Dan

p.s just to confirm when I  ifconfig

it shows me an eth0 connection, so the pc is recognizing the card.

Hi phenigma,

Thank you very much for the information. Sorry I have taken so log to follow up your advise. I was having trouble getting onto web admin and after 3 different linuxmce mirrors have finally get my system up and running.

I followed your instructions, managed to download the file from the web site you suggested, tar, make, into net folder but still no connection.

I have also tried swapping eth 0 and eth1 in the web admin network settings. Now the onboard NIC is external eth1. I have plugged my internet cable into the onboard NIC and cannot connect to the net.

I have also tried disabling the firewall through web admin settings, still no connection...

Sorry I missed the 8169 file you uploaded. Will it be possible to make it available again.

Thanks for everything.

Dan
