Installation of Marvel Yukon 88E8040T Ethernet on Satellite U405 using Linux

Sorry for my English. I am writing from Brazil, and the only reason I'm not posting in Portuguese is because I want to let this information available for a larger number of users.

I had a few problems although the Marvel Yukon Ethernet PCI on my Debian installation. I bought this laptop because it seems feet all my needs, with a good size RAM, processor and HD (the only problem is the computer keyboard, which are starting to make noises of ugly typing after a while).

This post is dedicated to helping other users who want to use almost any flavor of Linux to their specifications U405 series.

In the first place, in order to have a work of U405-S2854 laptop with good resolution of 1280 x 800, I had to abandon my old friend Debian Etch (stable - 2.6.18 kernel) and installation of Debian Lenny (testing - 2.6.24 kernel) because the package 'xserver-xorg' in Debian Etch problems to recognize the Intel VGA controller. I spent hours looking for a good solution to [www.intellinuxgraphics.org | www.intellinuxgraphics.] org Web site] without success.

Well well... a little conversation and a LOT more action:

If you have installed a 2.6.18 kernel or the oldest one, the X server will probably be able to recognise your VGA controller and configure it as a VESA adapter, using resolution 1024 x 768, if you are satisfied with this (poor) resolution just go on the site [http://www.marvell.com/drivers | http://www.marvell.com/drivers] download, install your new Ethernet controller and live happily ever after.

But if you use a 2.6.24 kernel from, then the X server can really identify your "+ VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller +" you can face some problems to install your Ethernet card. The good news is that I found someone who has solved the problem!

All you need to do is open a terminal and copy - paste the following commands.

. $ sudo knew.
(enter your password)
. # rmmod sky2
. # cd/lib/modules / 'uname - r' / kernel/drivers/net
. # cp Pei sky2.ko {, .orig}
. # perl - pe s/\0\0\x6c\x43/\0\0\x55\x43/g ' sky2.ko.orig > sky2.ko
. # echo sky2 > / etc/modules
. # modprobe sky2

I hope this tip is helpful to you as it was for me!

Kind regards.

Wow, your teaching is very good and very clear. I appreciate it because I tried to install Ubuntu on my Sat A200 and this machine has also a Marvell chip.

Thanks for the great info. :)))

  • Re: update driver Marvell Yukon ethernet on an Equium A300D

    A month ago, I think it was I got an alert on the Toshiba Tempro tool for updating a driver for Marvell Yukon ethernet on my laptop driver. I downloaded the zip file by following the instructions on the site of Marvell (an updated driver was published on 18-08-08) and tried to install it, but that's when I hit a problem. When I try to install it tells me that a previous version is already installed and uninstall the previous version first.

    The problem is when I go to Device Manager and try and find the driver, the only entry is for a 'Marvell Yukon 88E8040T PCI-E Fast Ethernet controller', but the driver I was prompted to install was one of Marvell Miniport driver.

    At the time I just ignored him, thinking that the update was not relevant for me, but since then, I had a number of BSOD - the last afternoon - and in all cases when Windows has finished it's error report, it returns with advice that I need to update of the Marvell Yukon Semiconductor driver... and directing me to the download as I was originally directed worms by the Tempro alert. Of course again, it says I have uninstall the previous version before installing it, but as I can't find an earlier version of the Miniport driver to uninstall there is nothing I can do about it, even once I ignore it. Everything seems to work fine (apart from my current ignored problems of internet with my wireless connection and the fact that I can't seem to set up a connection wired (perhaps because this driver issue?), but sooner or later I get a BSOD even once, he accuses the Marvell Yukon driver so I'm back to square one.) I had the time BSOD now 4 or 5 in the last month.

    All advice appreciated.

  • Slow internet speed because of the Marvell Yukon LAN driver

    Hi all!

    I'm a newbie here so don't know if I'm supposed to ask this question here but anyway, hope, my problem is solved somehow.

    I'm on a Toshiba Satellite A200 laptop computer, I received last week and everything works well except my internet speed, its too slow. I'm on a 10 Mbps plan but my speed is no where near that. I get speeds close to 200 kb/s at 300 KB/s max. After some googleing I got to know that the Marvell Yukon LAN driver is the problem here.

    According to some Internet sites, we are supposed to roll back the driver to a previous version, I did it, but speed still does not pass. I have tried almost all the things I can do, but nowhere so far. I called my ISP, they say that everything is rosy on the other hand, ran the scan of Norton Antivruis on this computer, the firewall disabled, and the list is long but nothing.

    It would be great if someone could help me out here.

    Thanks in advance...

    Hello

    checked your connection with another computer, if the problem persists try with another machine?

    Would be really interesting... If not I suggest you to reclaim your machine to 'default '. Maybe it's solved something.
    Another idea would be to remove the service from the "Qos" (quality of service) of your network connection, which hardly slows down the connection for software reasons.

    Please give some feedback and please tell me what system you´re using (Vista, XP)

  • Satellite R850 uses only 25% of the CPU

    Hey, my toshiba satellite R850 uses 25% of the CPU, I got 8 GB of ram, and most of the higher quality games have 20-30 FPS, is there a possibility to make it higher?

    Thanks for the help!

    How do you get this value or how do you know that only 25% of the CPU performance can be used?

    Have you noticed this behavior of the laptop is running on battery or power?

    Usually, you can change the max and min of CPU performance values in Windows power management. This allows you to decrease the CPU heat dissipation and to increase the working time of battery.

    In contrast to Intel CPU support between that the enhanced SpeedStep Technology puts both voltage and frequency in tandem up and down level to processor support.
    Simply said: the CPU runs with only if more high performance s necessary!

    I think the game frame per second question is more related to the graphics card than the CPU.
    Not quite sure this graphic card your laptop stand, but in case you want to have big game performance, the laptop should be equipped with a GPU external nVidia or ATI.

  • Satellite L750 turns on and turns off by itself using Linux

    Today, I had some strange behavior on my laptop. It closes unexpectedly, after showing a dialog box saying "your computer will stop in 60 seconds". And then when I turn it back on, it stops just before the start and it turns on by itself after a few seconds.

    It not too much heat, the CPU temperature is normally between 50 - 60 c (I constantly monitored using Conky). In addition, someone told me to upgrade the BIOS, so I did it, but the problem persists. I also tried to replace the RAM and run a memcheck, but everything looks good on the side of the memory.

    > I use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, but it seems that the problem is more hardware related and I would like to study what are the causes stop randomly. The same thing on Windows, but there is no warning before stopping.

    You have verified the functionality of the laptop using the Windows system, but have you used the Toshiba recovery disc and have you tested with factory settings?

    I m wondering about the message: your computer will shut down in 60 seconds

    If this would be a hardware problem, then the laptop would be closed without any warning messages.

    > Another small problem that was Watch not remember brightness for battery mode.

    Please don't be angry with me, but first I would not talk about problems if you use Linux on the Toshiba laptop. Is that Linux is not supported and that's why some features of laptops may not work properly.

    About the light battery;
    The LEDs are controlled by the BIOS. As you know the laptop was running Vista and so the BIOS support for Vista.
    As I said above, if you use another OS like XP or possibly Linux so some features may not work properly.

  • Screen distorted when turned on Satellite U405

    Hi all

    I hope someone can help me with what to do - I bought a Satellite U405 laptop in the United States last summer (June 2008) and I used it fine until last week. When I turned on the other day, I got this on the screen - http://i34.tinypic.com/20ixjli.jpg and http://i34.tinypic.com/2j32ngx.jpg for a second opinion.

    What can cause this problem and how can I solve this problem?

    Hello!

    It seems that the internal screen is broken and needs to be replaced.

    You can fix that if you replace the screen by yourself or you go to an authorized service provider. Exchange of the screen is a little tricky and you need very careful. Also a lot of screws must be removed, so this should be done to professional people.

    I recommend you contact an authorized service provider that you can find on the Toshiba site. They will help you.

  • Satellite U405 - S2833 Fingerprint error: could not open the sensor

    Hello, I am very new to the forums so I apologize in advance if I don't give all the necessary accurate information in this thread.

    I have a Toshiba U405-S2833 and it came with the TrueSuite Access Fingerprint Software.

    I downloaded an update a few days ago, but I don't remember if it's for Vista or Toshiba. Since then, my fingerprints were all removed from the system, and when I try re - save, I get this error message "error: could not open the sensor" I can't find the material to fix the sensor manually without going through the TrueSuite software.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    I am also having the same problem.

    My boss uses a Satellite U405-2628 fingerprinting and with the sensor TrueSuite Access Manager. It worked fine, then I updated windows and it has stopped working. I was on the updates and noticed an update of TrueSuite and thought that maybe that was messed up things.

    Then there were other issues that went past me locked out of the machine (anti-virus and loss of relationship with the field... also my fault). So I decided to wipe the machine and install fresh Vista.

    I installed everything but the TrueSuite software still not able to open the sensor. After hitting my head on it, I decided enough was enough and I restored it using Toshiba recovery disks.

    It took a few hours and here I am logged in as administrator and the TrueSuite software still cannot open the sensor. I don't know what I can do, since it is to return to the factory settings.

    As the above poster said, HELP!

    Thank you.

    ... a little later...

    Well, I managed to do work, and this can be useful for some people out there since I found no easy answers. I can't guarantee anything, and it's really complicated... so here go us.

    First, I downloaded the latest update from Toshiba (util_fingerprint_27460A.exe) and nothing has worked.
    Then I uninstalled the sensor since (click right, uninstalled) Device Manager to uninstall the driver as well (it should invite you to do so)
    Then, still in the Device Manager, I scanned for new hardware and it came with my sensor. I said to look for drivers and when he could not find, I think it gave me an option for windows search for an answer... or something like that. He came back with a link to Authentec (www.authentec.com/win7update/w7wbf32.exe, I think). So I downloaded that and installed. He rose through the device under "Biometric devices" then before... I think it's under the "Personall security device" or something like that. But alas, still no luck. So I uninstalled all the device from the Device Manager (taking care of uninstalling the driver as well) and of the TrueSuite software. Then came the break I was looking for.

    Online research I came across this page... http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?action=download&driverid=1194755. I had the chance before to DriverGuide.com so I thought what the heck. It is a driver of HP for the same sensor and it is dated 2006. So I downloaded and installed. Still nothing...

    Disgusted, I thought, well let's try to install util_fingerprint_27460A.exe on top of that. So I did, restarted and I couldn't believe my eyes when he said to connect and register fingerprints not seriously. And so I did. I hope this helps people, I don't really know how the sensor I so messed up, but I'm glad it worked.

    Yet one thing... and this may be important. When I took TrueSuite first after doing all this, he told me that the storage of fingerprints was full... or something in that sense. So I clicked the button remove all traces of fingers button and it I would like to register my fingerprints. I'm starting to wonder if that was all I had to do in the first place... Guess I'll never know.

    Good luck.
