Linux uses the following firmware rtl8192c_common: Loading firmware file rtlwifi/rtl8192cfw.bin How do I compile in support in the kernel for this? Also which firmware should I use? Maybe NDIS would be able to get it working? This is a guess on my part based on what Google scrapes up.
computer got hung while doing bulk build
I brought up Firefox (I had been doing it on the laptop, but I took it out last night and will take it out tonight) and Gimp on darner. Also hammer has been running over 13 hours, which is highly unusual; usually it takes 20 or 40 minutes. I have over 70 GB on the disk that holds the bulk build. The computer hung. On the window that's showing the bulk build, I see this: [1736/12501] Starting build of tex-pst-3dplot-1.94 [1736/12501] Failed to buildtex-pst-3dplot-1.94 [1752/12501] Starting build of farsight2-0.0.26nb6 Read from remote host darner: Connection reset by peer Connection to darner closed. I have to reboot darner. How do I resume the bulk build? Pierre -- When a barnacle settles down, its brain disintegrates. Já não percebe nada, já não percebe nada.

I have to reboot darner. How do I resume the bulk build? If you're using my simplepbulk script, run clean.sh again without the -a qualifier, and it'll rescan and restart with only unbuilt packages. Also, this will possibly happen again. I've had trouble getting builds to finish due to bug 2296, I think it is.
