Go to http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/, then download

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ipw3945/ipw3945-1.1.3.tgz?download.

Copy the firmware files to /lib/firmware/ on your system.

Reboot the system to initialize. Problem: When make the ipw3945 files, it prompts error messages as:

[root@Jack ipw3945-1.1.3]# make
ERROR: A compatible subsystem was not found in the following path[s]:/lib/modules/2.6.17-1.2187_FC5smp /lib/modules/2.6.17-1.2187_FC5smp/build

You need to install the ieee80211 subsystem from http://ieee80211.sf.net and point this build to the location where you installed those sources, e.g.

% make IEEE80211_INC=/usr/src/ieee80211/

Or use the ‘make patch_kernel’ within the ieee80211 subsystem to patch your kernel sources. So we have to do like that.

As far as I concerned, Opera is the fastest browser, while Firefox is balanced between functionality and speed. IE? It is rubbish since it alsways has no respond even when I try to login LiveSpace and publish this article!

Opera is a good browser since it uses its own core. Despite of its lack of lots functionality, it is still a browser worth remembering. Like when you want speed instead of rich effect, you’d use Opera instead o...

While a man and a woman move house, what will happen? Funny codes written by me:

Man:

while($totalItemPrice > $airlineFines)
{
      foreach($items AS $itemPrice)
      {
       if($itemPrice > $setPrice)
      {
       drop();
      }
      else
      {
       save();
      }
      }
}

Woman:

while($bagsQuantitySatisfy() && $boyfriendIsPresent())
{
       $totalItem = $toys[] + $cosmetic[] + $bonsais[] + $balloons[] + $lamp[] + $socks[] + $cloths[] + $additionalCloths[] + $extraCloths[] + $unexpectedCloths[] + $friendsCloths[] + $friendsFriendsCloths[];
       ship();
}

They are not terrorists, they are just protesters…

All kinds of players, see:

http://www.linuxfans.org/nuke/modules.php?name=Forums&file=printview&t=141267&start=30

Audio:

Rhythmbox: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/rhythmbox/0.9/
xmms: http://www.linuxfans.org/nuke/modules.php?name=Site_Downloads&op=geninfo&did=1387 (They do not support mp3 anymore because of license problem)

Video:

xine: http://www.xinehq.de/index.php/release
mplayer: http://www3.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/MPlayer-1.0rc1.tar.bz2

Before all, we have to install gcc version between 2.95 and 4.x.

[root@localhost ~]# yum install gcc

Make directory at:

[root@localhost ~]# mkdir /usr/local/lib/codecs

Download some of the codec from their sourcer at here (for me the codec is here), then copy to the above directory.

If we want to use GUI for the player, we can input:

[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0rc1]# ./configure --enable-gui

We might see a warning message:

Error: The GUI requires PNG support, please install libpng and libpng-dev packages.

Install png library and png devil so we can enable GUI. Go to:

http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html

and then find:

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/3/srodzaj/2/search/libpng-1.2

Then download libpng-devel-1.2.8-2.2.1.i386.rpm package for Fedora Core 5 (that’s my system):

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/26/dist/47/size/183912/name/libpng-devel-1.2.8-2.2.1.i386.rpm

Install.

Bad news: we still need X11 core font subsystem to enable the GUI:

[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0rc1]# ./configure –enable-gui
Error: X11 support required for GUI compilation.

So we:

[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0rc1]# yum install x11

Still not working:

[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0rc1]# vi configure.log
============ Checking for X11 headers presence ============
Result is: no (check if the dev(el) packages are installed)
##########################################
============ Checking for X11 ============
Result is: no (check if the dev(el) packages are installed)

So we change like:

[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0rc1]# cd /usr/X11R6
[root@localhost X11R6]# mkdir lib
[root@localhost X11R6]# cd lib
[root@localhost lib]# ln -s /etc/X11/ X11

Not working again… 🙁 Google google google… Then we find this: RPM Resource libX11-devel:

http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libX11-devel

Again we yum install:

[root@localhost /]# yum install libX11-devel

Not working! 😳

[root@localhost /]# cd /usr/local/lib/codecs
[root@localhost codecs]# ln -s /etc/X11/ X11

No! 🙁

[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0rc1]# rpm -q X11
package X11 is not installed

This must be the reason!

Download files from:

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/SRPMS/libX11-1.0.0-3.FC5.0.src.rpm

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/SRPMS/libXfont-1.0.0-3.src.rpm

Then install:

[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0rc1]# ./configure --enable-gui
[root@localhost MPlayer-1.0rc1]# make; make install

Done! Note that if we don’t use GUI, we can simply right click on the music file, then choose open with -> open with other players -> mplayer.
