Wifi PCI card
Hi, I plan to buy a wifi card D-Link DWL-G510. I would like to know if anyone has got it working and if yes, what you used, Madwifi, ndiswrapper. I am running a pure 64 bits Amd debian.

3Ware 9500 install issues
Greetings: I have a machine that I'm trying to install Debian onto. The hardware consists of: Tyan K8WE Motherboard (2) Opteron 270 CPUs 4GB memory 3Ware 9500S with 4(RAID5) HDs The driver for the 3Ware card (3w-9xxx) isn't loaded by the installer, so there is no device /dev/sda to install onto. Using the second virtual console to manually load the 3w-9xxx driver doesn't help. The driver loads correctly, but it doesn't detect the disk array. This behavior occurs with the Beta 2 Etch netboot image, and with the nightly build also. The Sarge image doesn't work either, but it fails even earlier in the process. I thought that perhaps some of the drivers that were getting loaded were interfering with the operation of the 3w-9xxx driver, so I tried the install in expert mode and didn't let the installer load all of those ide chipset drivers, but it didn't help. I tried a PXE network install so that I could load no IDE drivers, but no dice either. I don't know if it is a problem with this particular kernel version or what. I tried the Ubuntu 5.10 live CD which has 2.6.12, and it is able to load the 3w-9xxx driver and see /dev/sda properly. After loading the driver manually, dmesg reports that version 2.26.02.004 is loaded. Can anyone offer any insight? Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Peter A. H. Peterson wrote: Hi All, I know this is a little something of a tall order, but I am looking to replace my aging SMP system with a dual, dual-core Opteron system (probably Opteron 265s). Noise level is a primary concern because our apartment is very small. I recognize that this is quite a constraint, but then that's what makes it interesting. The box will primarily be a server but may also run MythTV. (Just to make it *really* interesting.) I was thinking about using a ZMAX DP system, which is supposed to be Dual-core ready (or so I've read), but then I have heard that the ZMAX units run more around 50 db (more than the 38db on the ZMAX specs). Plus, there's not much room for upgrading and I would be forced to use USB network dongles... etc. And, I would prefer to use stock kernel or experimental drivers -- I don't want to have to use binary nVidia drivers. Is nForce3 fully supported without the binary drivers? Then I started thinking about using a K8T Master2 Far-7 board because it is only standard ATX and seeing if I could get that board into a Sonata II case... but I'm not sure if that is even possible and, once again, I can't seem to find a lot of specs about it or people who have tried. Does anyone have experience with a working dual, dual-core opteron system that is less than full-tower size and relatively quiet? Or even a quiet-but-full-tower machine? If anyone has experience with the ZMAX unit and can speak to its noise level (especially with dual core chips) that would be great too. I figured that even if you guys didn't know these pieces of hardware specifically, the peanut gallery would at least have opinions about the best way to make a quiet dual dual-opteron server.

Now qwtplot3d compiles perfectly on my computer. You were also right that I had the nvidia driver installed I removed it and then reinstalled xlibmesa.

My guess is that you're trying to link libGL.a which is a static library, and therefor not build with -fPIC, into a shared library, which needs to be build with -fPIC. Instead of /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.a, you need to link to /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so. Both are be part of xlibmesa-gl-dev. I have no idea why you try to link the static version, but you shouldn't.
