Kernel PAE on openSuSE 11.1

Hello

I just wonder why EAP is not supported with DAQmx? I put comment memory to record nikal.c and ran updateNIDrivers. Everything "seems to work very well." What overflows should I pay for? I just got 5 GB of RAM in this machine today and I hope I'll be able to continue to use it.

Thank you

John

Hey ninevoltz,

The problem with EAP is that you have more than 4 GB of memory addressable physically.  Most of our pci hardware is capable of 32-bit addressing of memory, which means that if you want to perform an operation of DMA buffer that the device copy of / must reside in the lower 32 bits of physical address space.  So in order to support EAP, you must make sure that all DMA buffers contain only 32-bit physical addresses.

Unfortunately, it is more difficult as it may seem, especially when the driver was not designed with this in mind.  There are two places that the DMA buffers could be affected in the kernel or user mode.  If the buffer is allocated in the kernel, it really depends on what API allows you to allocate memory.  API kmalloc() and dma_alloc_coherent() will give you 32-bit physically addressable physically contiguous memory.  For small allocations, they can work very well, but for larger allowances they may fail.  If you use something like vmalloc to allocate the memory, you can probably find more big buffers but these buffers can contain pages above the limit of 32-bit.  For even if the DMA buffer is allocated in user for DMA without copy mode then the buffer can contain physical pages above the limit of 32-bit.

You can work around some of these issues by using the right APIs, or walking each DMA buffer and check that each page is less than the limit of 32-bit.  Unfortunately this kind of things affect the performance.  So even if we set our drivers to support 64-bit operating systems we probably won't the same changes to our 32-bit drivers.

Finally it is not really possible to fix all this in something like NOR-KAL.  NOR-KAL has no idea if the memory is allocated for DMA or for something else.  You could make all allocation of memory OR KAL API always allocate physically addressable memory 32-bit (in fact it is not hard to do), but that still will not solve the case where the DMA buffers are allocated user mode.

    Any idea?

    Hello

    Your problem is a little weird!

    Your wireless network card is a BT / WLAN combo and should be supported by the kernel used in openSuse 12.3.
    Check the functionality in Windows or any other end Linux distribution?

    I would say to download Fedora 19 and run as a direct medium OS to check the operation of BT.
    If it works fine, I belive there is a bug in the distro openSuse.
    If this isn't the case, I really think you should consider checking your hardware.

    I have the same card in my works C850 and BT just perfect in Fedora 19.

    Hope this helps you out

  • Installation of VMWare in Fedora 17 (guest operating system) tools

    First... you seem to tell the difference between x86_64 and i686 iso image of Fedora. I couldn't find an i686 image. Of course, I must be on 64 bit system. If I'm wrong, then please direct me in the right direction.

    If you want to use the x86_64 image that's good, assuming that your system supports.  I just used the i686 for example image in the scenario either will not lead the same way.  Then the essence is in the error message that it reported a string zero to locate the core of 3.3.4 - 5.fc17.x86_64 by default and this means that the necessary header files for the kernel were not on the system.  I introduced him as I did so we would understand that if they made a default installation and no upgrade and is not used "-"uname - r"" is then added to "kernel-devel" with yum install the last header of kernel files not by default and would always be a null string error message.

    Secondly, I've upgraded to the latest version of the kernel, and I download these errors right now. Should I go down.

    The latest kernel, I do not think that it is officially supported by VMware again and tools VMware would need to be patched with the third-party patch before installing with the kernels more later then the default kernel.  So you need to apply one of the hotfixes that are here on the web or use a core of support for VMware, it's your choice.

    BTW, it is quite common with the Linux distro once one updated the default kernel will generally use one of the third party patches for VMware Tools install properly and you should be able to find it in the forums and via Google.  In General, VMware is and has always been extremely slow in support of new kernels, where the need to use third-party patches for VMware Tools to properly install on any Linux distro and kernel which is not yet officially supported!

    Chris

    You will need to install a few packages of development.  This probably will fix you all:

    YaST-i do tar grep gcc module-init-tools

    You will also need the kernel headers or source for your running kernel

    YaST-i kernel-source

    Then run as root once and exit vmware and go back to the race as your normal user and if things work out.

  • Firefox 15.0 hangs out (12.1 opensuse)

    Recently (maybe since v14) firefox starts to crash whenever I close.

But when updated to 15.0, firefox takes up the problem again and again, even as it works in mode safe without any extension or I'll take the .mozilla / directory in my home directory completely. In addition, I tried to uninstall and reinstall firefox, but the problem remains. A share the same problem or has a suggestion? Thank you very much.

    Here is the solution:

    Bang head on the desk.

    . / UNINSTALL

    declare - x KERNELHEADERS/usr/src/linux-$(uname-r)

    declare - x KERNELTARGER $(uname-r)

    . / INSTALL

    All right.

    Thank you Charles for the great solution.

  • DAQmx installation fails on openSuSE 11.1

    Hello

    I've been test driving openSuSE 11.1 today, and I discovered that DAQmx will not install correctly. It looks like the /lib/modules/2.6.xx/source for headers instead of lib/modules/2.6.xx/build. openSuSE install the headers for the construction and the packets from the kernel to the source source.

    John

    I've never understood how the modules version, so I just rebuilt the kernel with management module disabled versions. Now, it works fine.

    # CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is not defined

  • All-in-one j6480 using linux, problems during the update of the kernel

    I have a platform of linux opensuse 11.0 (printer was working fine before the update) and updated the linux kernel and lost the connection to a printer, is the hpj6480 all-in-one printer, then updated to hplip 3.9.2

    using auto-install in the terminal, installed latest driver hplip 3.9.2, by checking installed software packages poster old version 2.8.4 printer hplip currently works as a USB direct connect but not wireless

    other than the obvious question how do I solve this problem... What is the plan for the installation of the printer basic logic (IE... direct connect USB - wireless - cable) or install also completely wireless?  ... I should completely uninstall the printer and system drivers and re - install as a new system... And are there associated lib files that it removed the old driver of 2.8 and 2.10?

    It turns out that the hplip should be reinstalled... but which has also compounded the problem was that the firewall should be removed to complete installation... Thank you for your help

  • Failure of vmnet after last update of openSUSE

    Hi all

    I just made an update of opensuse Factory tonight zypper mega - v13.2 goes live Monday so I thought that I would avoid the rush.

    It was a big mistake that VMware Workstation is concerned because after update packages ~ 530 (new kernal etc) VMware Workstation can compile is no longer the vmnet module.

    ERROR: Failure of vmnet.  Cannot run the command build.

    I've been running Vmware Workstation very well with zero problems on the factory for the past 3 weeks

    Side note: I've just updated to VMware yesterday.

    I am running: VMware-Workstation-Full - 10.0.4 - 2249910.x86_64.bundle

    Everything worked fine for 24 hours before updating major openSUSE tonight (20141031)

    Looking for a valid kernel header path...

    The path "" is not a valid path to the headers of the core of 3.7.10 - 1.1 - desktop.

    You want to change it? [Yes]


    Enter the path to the files of headers of the kernel for the core of 3.7.10 - 1.1 - desktop?

    I tried "/ usr/src/linux-3.7.10-1.1" but that has not worked.
    What should you specify the path to the kernel headers?
    Thank you
    Paul

    Ok

    It was always a pain in the neck... forever.

    Why vmware can't put a clear message on what the vmware - install.pl seek (or log)?

    My settings are:

    • $(uname-r)' => 3.7.10 - 1.1 - desktop
    • $(uname-m)'-online x86_64

    In any case, I assume you have the following packages (Please adjust for your config):

    • kernel-desktop - 3.7.10 - 1.1.1.x86_64
    • kernel-desktop-devel - 3.7.10 - 1.1.1.x86_64

    You need not what anyone else.

    And don't forget, you have not installed: libvmtools0, open-vm-tools, open-vm-tools-gui.

    So proceed like this:

    $> mkdir-p/lib/modules/3.7.10-1.1-desktop/build/include/linux

    $> cp/usr/src/linux -3.7.10 - 1.1-obj /x86_64/Office/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h.

    / lib/modules/$(uname-r)/Build/include/linux

    $>./vmware-install.pl

    Restart and you should now be fine.

  • Helps the installer kernel panic

    WS Preview installation on openSUSE 12.2 milestone with kernel 3.3.0 worked great (that I posted).  When you try to install VMware in Ubuntu 12.04 with kernel 3.3.0 I lived what "seemed" to be a required (video completely unreadable and frozen - mhard rfebootg) kernel panic.  I have attached the vmware Installer log and may not know where the accident occurred.  The compliation seems like he has not finished, but aren't errors (with the exception of the permissions that does not stop the compilation).

    Is there a way to install WS directly depui the CLI?  I remember messages that discussed this but I can't find it on google (for this product - no esxi or vvshere.

  • Is there a workaround for OpenSUSE 11.4

    Hello, I tried to install VMWare Player version 3.1.4 in OpenSUSE 11.4. After installation, when I'm launching the vmplayer, I had a guest complain that cannot find the version of the kernel header 2.6.37.1. I installed the kernel sources are 2.6.37.6, I would like to know is really important where I had a newer version of the installed source.

    Is there a workaround to use the new version of the header source?
