    We are trying to install a PCIe 6251 DAQ card in a box of Gentoo 64 bit running Linux kernel 2.6.28 - gentoo-r5 4.3.2 - gcc and glibc - 2.8.  We have installed RPM utilities to manage the installation.  The current problem is that we are not able to compile and install the kernel modules: nidmxfk, nimsdrk, nimstsk and nipxirmk.  Here's a summary of what we have done so far, and to what extent we got.

    First of all, we have changed the configuration of the kernel that we could export the init_mm unused symbol by changing the configuration option of the CONFIG_UNUSED_SYMBOLS = o kernel and recompile the kernel.  Then we installed LabView 8.6.1.  Then we ran the nation 1.9 installer who has installed the source code in vain on the compilation.  To resolve this problem, we have changed the function of pte_offset to pte_offset_kernel by editing the file/usr/local/natinst/nation/configures following the instructions here:

    http://decibel.NI.com/content/docs/doc-4511

    We were then able to compile and install the kernel nation module thanks to:

    . / configure
    do
    make install

    lsmod said that nation has been properly installed.  Then we ran the installer for DAQmx 8.0.1 by:

    . / INSTALL - nodeps

    To do this, we have received errors indicating that LabView support could not be installed because check addictive (incorrectly we think) stated that labviewbase86 has not been installed; This caused the installer to have an abortion.  Therefore, we refused to install support for LabView 8.6 and revived the installation program which produces the output:

    Installation of the driver NOR-DAQmx Distribution of Linux Installer version 8.0.1f0...

    Already to jump Edward - 1.9.0 - f0.noarch.rpm installation, same or newer

    After Installation...

    At this point, after reading this report, we used the Gentoo rc update utility to add several scripts for the boot runlevel initialisation:

    update of RC - a boot nipple
    update of RC - a bunch of nipxirmu
    update of RC - a bunch of mxssvr
    update of RC - a bunch of nisvcloc
    update of RC - a bunch of nidevldu

    When the computer reboots, you get an error message indicating that the following kernel modules are not: nidmxfk, nimsdrk, nimstsk and nipxirmk.  lsmod shows that the nation and nipalk are installed, but no other kernel modules NOR are present.  modprobe-l shows that only nation and nipalk are available.

    So we have several questions:

    1. we install drivers in the correct order?  Should use us NI-VISA 4.5 or NOR-488. 2 rather than DAQmx 8.0.1?

    2. What kernel modules should be loaded for this equipment run?  How to compile and install the ones that we have yet, specifically nidmxfk, nimsdrk, nimstsk and nipxirmk?  Are there others?

    3. How can we get the installer to properly recognize that we have installed LabView Core and install support for LabView?  Are there additional kernel modules related to the support of LabView?

    4. What is the symbolic link that was not created in the DAQmx installation report? (ln: create the symbolic link ' / usr/local/include/NIDAQmx.h': no such file or directory)?

    I apologize for so many questions, but these seem to be the last obstacles to obtaining OR runs correctly on this system.  Is there other information that we can provide that would be useful?  Thanks for any help or suggestions you can offer.

    Craig

    Hey Craig,.

    Given that you use 64-bit Linux all kernel modules must be compiled for 64 - bit.  User mode binaries can be 32-bit, assuming that you have installed the 32-bit support libraries.

    NOR-DAQmx is a complex architecture and requires several kernel modules to support your PCIe card.  Most of these kernel modules have not been brought to support 64-bit Linux.  Some kernel modules are components infrustructure that are shared with other pilots OR as NI-VISA and NOR-488. 2 and have been brought to support 64-bit Linux.  Unfortunately, you need all the modules to use your hardware.

    I hope that answers your question.

  • [DEV] Kernel module for Open on Thinkpad Tablet TUN VPN support

    Since your rooting TPT is not a big problem now, it's time to enrich the tablet with powerful features - one of them is the support for OpenVPN. As with all other tablets based Tegra2 we have to flash a TUN/TAP on TPT kernel module. We have two choices:

    1. someone confirms that we can reuse just modules written for other tablets: like this thread for example: [Acer A500]

    2. or we need someone to write them for our tablet.

    Unfortunately, I'm not that experienced with Linux systems.

    phinpan is right. All you have to do is install tun.ko market Installer, run it, add additional details (I didin't) press on install. If she tells you, do not take into account that this module is not compatible. After using the tun.ko Installer, just download installer OpenVPN and OpenVPN market parameters. First run the OpenVPN Setup, follow the instructions and then start OpenVPN settings. It took less than 5 minutes and now I'm protected by my VPN provider.

  • 12.0.0 Workstation install fails on Ubuntu Linux 16.04 (4.4.0 - 28 generic) [service failing vmmon; updated vmware kernel module]

    Hi guys,.

    I'm really excited to go with VMware Workstation on a new install of Ubuntu (16.04).  Planning watch GNS3 VMs and vagabond for Docker VMs integration among other things.  Since the two vmware workstation and linux/ubuntu are mature, I really expected that I would have any problem with the installation.

    I was a bit dismayed when the 12 workstation installation failed on a new installation of 16.04.  It seems that the VMware Kernel Module Updater step and specifically the Virtual Machine Monitor is the problem.

    Can someone help with the steps required for a successful installation of 12 Workstation on Ubuntu 16.04 please?

    Details of my attempt and a quick fix to follow.

    Please help, thanks!

    Greg

    Hi there =)

    Just for brevity, the "Monitor" is in fact what we call the hypervisor itself. We call the LCD screens "poster".

    So it's probably an incompatibility of which is just to be around the GPU kernel module, but it could have been any kernel module.

    Thanks for sharing your success!

  • Failure to update the kernel Module

    I've upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04 and now I can't use VMWare Workstation anymore.  I have the version 8.0.3, but when I run I am prompted with "Before you can run VMWare, several modules must be compiled and loaded in the kernel currently running." and the possibility of 'Cancel' or 'install '.

    Screenshot from 2012-05-07 08:19:17.png

    Then, I click on install and invites me my password to sudo.  When performing updates, the compilation of the "Virtual Network Device' seems to fail.

    Screenshot from 2012-05-07 08:21:47.png

    Then I get an error "Unable to start services" which tells me to check a log file for more details.

    Screenshot from 2012-05-07 08:23:41.png

    I enclose the log file.  Also, if that makes a difference, I had this problem on the version 8.0.2, but when I saw 8.0.3 was out I have downloaded and updated but still had the same problem.

    the patch worked for me:

    plreqver = 4.0.3

    2. go in/usr/lib/vmware/modules/source

    3 extract the vmnet.tar

    I installed vmware Player on a linux Open Suse (32-bit), the supplied file .bundle machine. It worked very well, and I could load my file of virtual machine very well. Then, my machine had a random failure. When it restarts, I could no longer use my virtual machine, always get the error:

    but I do not have it. It seems that maybe it was a part of the installation (no-bundle) more old?

    What should I do? Is this a known problem, as indicated in this Web site? Or random failure caused something? I'm quite confused.

    Have you tried to uninstall as root? Otherwise I think it won't work.

  • ESXi 5 - How to disable the unsigned kernel modules

    Hello. The Guide of strengthening "briefly" 5.0 mentions "Disabling Unsigned modules and remove the offending host VIBs»

    What is the best way to do both, that is to say: same/separate CLI commands?

    Looking for a general form of the command to do both of the above.

    Thank you.

    Community VIBs must be signed CommunitySupported would be the filter to use to get rid of any VIBs that could be signed (potentially with those signed as well).  However, the guide lists only the VMwareCertified and the VMwareAccepted as the recommended levels, so using supported that the filter will achieve what the guide is recommended.

    STEP 1: Connect to each ESX/ESXi host using the vCLI or ESXi Shell and run the command "esxcli software acceptance get ' to check the acceptance level is set to 'VMwareCertified' or 'VMwareAccepted '.  STEP 2: Connect to each ESX/ESXi host using the vCLI and run the command "esxcli software vib list" and check that the level of acceptance for each VIB is set to 'VMwareCertified' or 'VMwareAccepted '.

    I encountered exactly the same problem and finally solved by disabling "Secure Boot" from the BIOS.

    When "Secure Boot" is enabled, the unsigned kernel extensions will be not allowed to load. vmmon. Ko and vmnet.ko are of course not signed with cert of Fedora, so they will not work.

  • Can't build the kernel Linux in VMware Workstation 7.0 modules

    Hi, I have VMware Workstation 7.0 installed on a Fedora 20 x86_64 system, and I can't get past the 'install' kernel modules I looked around, but and I tried some things but none have worked. Is there anyone here who knows how to create and load the modules in the kernel for my system. The kernel is 3.13.8 - 200.fc20.x86_64 - x86_64.

    Thank you

    Fedora is not a host operating system support however is not officially supported and may / will this market are separate things.

    I have VMware Workstation 10 running under Fedora 20 on the stock kernel however the core of 3.13.x is not yet supported on supported OS host and modules need to be patched.

    VMware Workstation 7 is probably to old for work, unless you can find patches of third parties to the versions of core and WS.

    There is a patch for VMWare WS 9.0.2 to play nice with 3.10 kernel here:

    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VMware#3.10_kernels

    Or you can wait for VMWare WS 10.0 out...

  • Verification for the loading of unauthorized kernel (ESXi only) modules.

    Can someone tell me how to put this:

    4.2.16.1 VMware provides digital signatures for 3 party kernel modules that meet certain requirements. By default the ESXi host does not load the kernel modules which do not have a valid digital signature. This behavior can be overridden; However, a warning is sent to the alert system administrator logs any time that an unauthorized module is loaded.

    4.2.16.1.1 the core of 'messages' log file will show an entry of any time that an unsigned module is loaded into memory. This log file should be monitored and analyzed for this text. The message will be of the form
    4.2.16.1.2 ALERT: Elf: NNNN: XXXXX kernel module has been loaded, but has no attached signature. Where "NNNN" is a number and "XXXXX" is the name

    It refers to 15 HMT in hardening paper.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think that this is serious. If you have a kernel module that is not signed, while the kernel module is NOT blessed by VMware. However, you may have blessed it yourself, and you must have it because it is from a third-party trust provider. In this case, you have two options, check checksums and communicate to the supplier you need all your kernel modules to be blessed by Vmware.

    This is very similar to the alteration of the Linux kernels and some cannot be contaminated (by security policy), and others allow it. You need to know what the module is and why he has been charged in the first place and if use you it again.

    In this case, the knowledge is your friend, starting with the list of those signed and functional not from there. You can use the logfile approach as well, but in both cases, you can find unsigned modules.

    To define levels of more top/more detailed log look at Article #1004795

  • Compilation of modules for an installed, but not running in the kernel?

    With

    I can compile the kernel running modules. But how can I compile the kernel modules does not?

    Think about it.  You can't unlees you start with the kernel that is not running.
