Subject: [ydl-gen] Wicd network manager crash
Message-ID: <1286081524.4464.4.camel@localhost.localdomain>

Hello,

I am installing Yellow Dog linux on my Powerbook G4 and trying to set up
the airport extreme card.  I followed the instructions here:
http://www.ydl.net/support/solutions/ydl_6.x/airport-extreme.shtml and
everything seemed to work well, in fact i was able to briefly see my
wireless network but wasn't able to connect.  I restarted the wicd
client and now it crashes on startup with the following error message.
Any advice?


Error Information:
An exit code of 1 was returned from wicd-client --no-tray.

Output Data:
Loading...
Attempting to connect tray to daemon...
Success.
refreshing...

Hi Keromblum:

Follow the directions for modifying the conference file
(manager-settings.conf) which controls wicd's behavior.  After you make
the correction then wicd won't quit and you'll be able to see available
networks.  

Here is that link:

All the best...

Thanks for your reply Derick.  After modifying the conference file wicd
works again.  Great!  Unfortunately I'm still unable to see my wireless
network...

Hi Philo!

Did you follow the instructions for Airport Extreme?  

The previous poster, Keromblum, did provide the link to the correct
instructions the problem that you are confronting may be that the
information is very dated.  For the sake of explicit clarity, you need
to acquire the fwcutter software first, then use it to extract the
Broadcom driver from the Mac OS.

You can download the fwcutter directly from here
(http://bu3sch.de/b43/fwcutter/), although the previously posted
official directions should be closely executed first.

See how far you get executing the directions and if that fails, then
post to this list what output you saw as you did each step.

Hopefully, you'll be up and running wicd via Airport Extreme quickly.

All the best...

Please explain Manuel, why I would choose to do this???
Unfortunately Dropbox doesn't support PowerPC based Yellow Dog Linux!
So for me, it is useless!

Keep in mind that currently most storage on the "cloud" is insecure!!

Enough said.

ifconfig?

ifconfig -a 

Depending on which G5 you have you also can have more than one port ... Are sure you have things plugged into the right port?

Hi Billy:

It appears to me that first you need to identify if YDL even sees the
hardware that is installed; if not then the problem is really a matter
of making sure the card you have sits within or mates firmly within the
G5 properly.

I'm using YDL 6.2 from a G4 laptop so what I see is not going to match
what you should find as far as hardware details.  However the tools
YDL uses to discover the hardware should be close enough.

There exists a tool within YDL called Hardware Browser or Hardware
which can be accessed by choosing System --> Hardware.  Within the
Command Line Interface (CLI) it is known as hwbrowser; the quite way to
find it is:

$ whereis hwbrowser
hwbrowser: /usr/bin/hwbrowser /usr/share/hwbrowser
$ cd /usr/bin
$ ./hwbrowser

If you use the CLI remember that the app invoked this way needs to have
the terminal you invoked it from remain open.  In this situation,
hwbrowser will cease or terminate if the CLI it is invoked from closes.

Once hwbrowser is open (regardless how how you choose to invoke it)
select Network Devices and whatever devices YDL actually sees will be
listed there including driver and device directory.

The ethernet port is eth0.  You can make sure it is functioning by also
finding the Network Configuration app. Do Other --> Network.  Then
enter your root password.  The Network Configuration app should start
without any problem.
The first listing you should see is Ethernet highlighted; it is either
Active or Inactive.  I use wireless so mine is inactive; you will need
to have it active so just highlight it and then choose the Activate
Button. Of course after you do this make sure that your Firewall is up
within YDL.

Let's suppose that you need to have eth0 up everytime you log into YDL
and you don't want to repeat this procedure everytime you boot. Then
while you are within the Network Configuration app then while you are
within the Devices tab, choose Edit.  You'll see Activate at device
when computer starts.  Be sure to cycle through the other tabs for your
device to make sure the settings are correct, this is a good time to
refer to the manual which explains your card.

Once everything is defined correctly then choose OK and the settings
will be used as you defined them every time you boot into YDL.

All the best...

I have only One Ethernet port on the G5 and have changed
Out the Cable with 5 others and it is not the Cable.
I have reset the HP switch it is plugged into at least
5 times and I have done a ifconfig -a and can see that it
Is there and online. It is active under the Network Settings
And the FIREWALL is disabled and still the system says
It is installed and will not PING anything at all.
Fresh Install of YDL on the system. Am I forgetting to do something else?

Hey Billy, excuse me for failing to notice your status with our
Services.  It doesn't matter to me whether you use the g5 to play
pacman; it's an honor to assist you in any way possible.

To business:
First, there are at least several desktop interfaces available within
YDL and they structure their application menus slightly differently, at
least in my view.  The app you are using which you called Network
Settings is probably an interface application to the
system-config-network application which you actually need to use to
get the network system within YDL functional.

In the main menu of your desktop interface (it shouldn't matter whether
it is e17, gnome or something else.  I use XFCE.  In the main menu,
look for System then move to Network Device Control.  This is an
interface application which should show your eth0 device and it's
status (active or inactive).  You'll notice a third option Configure.
Click upon it.

A dialog box will appear which begins:

You are attempting to run "system-config-network"...

You must enter root password for the system - which is different
(should be) from the user password - in order to have access.  

A dialog box appears called Network Configuration.  Right underneath
the New, Edit, Copy icons are tabs Device, Hardware, IPsec, DNS, Hosts.

Select Hardware, IPsec and the others and examine them in detail to
make sure that each of the options within each tab are appropriate for
your environment; meaning that every option is approved or sanctioned
and accurate.  IPsec would be important in some situations but not
others depending on the what your system is doing.  Linux is infinitely
defensible if you know what you are doing.

Firewall: 
There are different philosophies regarding the appropriate approach. I
use a firewall on my router and a firewall operational within YDL.  I
also have active a firewall within OS X.  Call me nuts, but my system
doesn't fail.

You need to enforce what is recommended within the environment which
surrounds you.  Being rather focused on defending what is mine, I
choose to go the extra mile and avoid nasty problems.

If there are any changes to be made within a particular tab you will
notice that New, Edit etc. remains available or greys out (is
unavailable) according to the unique tab you are in.  You can change or
modify the Ethernet card by clicking upon Edit within the Hardware
tab.  In your situation, you will most likely have to add specific
hosts unique to your purposes.  You can add hosts for your card and YDL
to recognize under the Hosts tab, and click the New icon. Likewise to
create tunnels you need to use the IPsec tab and click the New icon.

Of course, if you really want to show off what a g5 is capable of
-- write code activating the Altivec processors which process code at
128bits. Windows and other current operating systems top out at 64!

Enough ideas from me, I'm looking to serve as a civilian within the IT
wing of the Services.  I hope I can get in; meanwhile I'll use a
popular common phrase directed to President Truman but modify it for you
and your comrades, as an encouragement against our enemies:

Give 'em Hell!!!

I had to give up using the G5 and installed it on a G4 Tower and it Works on
that tower. I loaded the G5 with OS 10.4.X and the Ethernet Port works
Perfectly. Guess there must have been something that the G5 did not like.

Thanks all for the Help.
