OpenSUSE 10.3 and 11.0, Installation of all needed Drivers
This guide is written to work with OpenSUSE 10.3, all sections will work (maybe with little changes) also with OpenSUSE 11.0. If there are important changes will be declared.
Once you have installed OpenSUSE 10.3 you will be able to use your PC, but some hardware will not work (Audio card i.e.).
To solve those problems do the following:
Open YaST-->Software-->Community Repositories then add:
- OSS
- Non-OSS
- Update
- Packman
then Open YaST-->Software-->Software Repositories
and remove DVD source.
Update your system.
Cpu Core Temp, and HD Sensors
OpenSUSE 11.0 users do the following:
Run the following command as root:
zypper in sensors hddtemp sensors-detect <press enter untill detecting is end> modprobe coretemp |
|---|
To check Core's temperature simply do that:
Run the following command:
sensors |
|---|
To check HD's temperature simply do that:
Run the following command:
/usr/sbin/hddtemp /dev/sda |
|---|
(you may want to change /dev/sda with the device you want to scan)
OpenSUSE 10.3:
Sensors-2.10.4 is not able to detect temperature sensors.
Video Drivers
nVidia GeForce GO 8400 GS
The video card is an nVidia GeForce GO 8400 GS, fully supported by official nVidia drivers, so simply install them: http://en.opensuse.org/Nvidia
After that also right scroll from your touchpad will work properly.
Audio Drivers
Intel Corporation ICH8 Family HD
With OpenSUSE 11.0 that works out of the box.
(PS: A note about dv6840el: As of 21 Jan 2009, a clean install of OpenSUSE 11.1 (KDE4 only) with all updates (including VideoLan and PackMan repositories, and ALSA v. 1.0.18-8.7 installed) does not allow you to use the built-in microphones. In fact, when right-clicking on the KMix tray icon the "Mute" option is ALWAYS ticked, and one cannot un-tick it. So, no VoIP or skyping so far, unfortunately. Suggestions are welcome. (PS: the microphone of the same laptop used to work fine under OpenSUSE 11.0 with KDE3+4 before. Could KDE3 be the right solution in this case? --> 2009 Apr 05 - UPDATE: skype working fine after selecting "Allow Skype to automatically adjust my mixer levels"!!)
OpenSUSE 10.3 users do the following:
The Audio card is an Intel Corporation ICH8 Family HD. It works only with the new alsa >= 1.0.16.
Simply add that repository:
Run the following command as root:
zypper sa http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/multimedia:audio/openSUSE_10.3_Update drivers:audio |
|---|
now you simply need to upgrade (or install) the following packages to have audio and your Mic works:
- alsa-driver-kmp-[default|bigsmp|xen|xenpae]
- alsa
Webcam Drivers
0c45:62c0 Microdia
Simply type lsusb to detect your webcam
anubis@HP-Linux:~> lsusb Bus 007 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 006 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0c45:62c0 Microdia Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
The available WebCam works with uvcvideo drivers, they should be installed by default, but NOT ALL PROGRAMS WILL WORK WELL...
AMSN, Skype, Ekiga will work, but Camorama and wxCam not.
uvcvideo drivers are available on OSS Repository, but if you want to have the latest drivers simply add that repository:
Run the following command as root:
zypper sa http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/drivers:/webcam/openSUSE_10.3/ drivers:webcam |
|---|
A nice software to manage your webcam is luvcview, available in Packman Repository
Run the following command as root:
zypper in luvcview |
|---|
running luvcview you will be able to take snapshots and other things.. (Remember, luvcview is still in development).
LAN Drivers
Atheros LAN Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000
Works out of the box
Broadcom BCM4310 Wireless Card
The wireless card is a Broadcom BCM4310, it will no work by default and you have to install or proprietary Broadcom Drivers or ndiswrapper with windows drivers.
With Broadcom drivers
I suggest Broadcom drivers, they works better than ndiswrapper and rpms are provided.
Packman repository, provides rpm for latest kernel available in Update Repository for openSUSE 10.3 11.0 11.1
to install it just broadcom-wl and broadcom-wl-kmp-[default|bigsmp|xen|xenpae|pae]
if you have a different kernel or you cannot have latest kernel from update repository, just install the following packages: kernel-source, kernel-syms, module-init-tools; then download source rpm package from here: http://packman.links2linux.org/package/broadcom-wl and:
Run the following command as root:
rpmbuild --rebuild broadcom-wl-<version>-<release>.src.rpm |
|---|
that will build rpm for you that will be available in /usr/src/package/RPMS/i586|x86_64 folder
Now make sure none of the other driver modules are load and test you new module works
rmmod ndiswrapper b43 ssb bcm43xx b43legacy modprobe ieee80211_crypt_tkip insmod wl.ko
NetworkManger should now detect your wireless card as wlan0 or eth1 and enable you to connect.
Finally, if all is well, install the driver and set it up to load automatically on boot.
Open YaST --> Network Devices --> Network Setting
click on your wireless card than press edit, switch to hardware tab, then be sure that wl driver is selected; save and exit
Use also Yast Sysconfig editor, or directly edit /etc/sysconfig/kernel, to set the module "ieee80211_crypt_tkip" to load at boot (thanks to YaST wl is yet loaded on boot) :
MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT="ieee80211_crypt_tkip"
Reboot and confirm that all works as required. You may need to blacklist or uninstall the other drivers if necessary, packman rpms provide /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-wl-blacklist file that blacklist them for you.
With ndiswrapper
OpenSUSE 11.0
Latest ndiswrapper is available in driver:wireless (update repository is needed). Install these packages:
- ndiswrapper-kmp-[default|xen|xenpae|pae]
- ndiswrapper
OpenSUSE 10.3 users do the following:
Latest ndiswrapper is available in driver:wireless (update repository is needed). Install these packages:
- ndiswrapper-kmp-[default|bigsmp|xen|xenpae]
- ndiswrapper
For both OpenSUSE versions:
now edit blacklist file.
| If you are using the KDE Desktop Environment: Run the following commands as root: kwrite /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist |
| If you are using the GNOME Desktop Environment: Run the following commands as root: gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist |
at the end of the file add those lines:
# Native Wifi Drivers blacklist bcm43xx blacklist ieee80211 blacklist ieee80211softmac blacklist ieee80211_crypt
OpenSUSE 11.0 users
add this line too:
blacklist b43
All OpenSUSE versions
remember to leave a blank line at the and of file. Now save it and exit.
Once you have done, download windows drivers from here: http://rapidshare.com/files/150370045/Broadcom_drivers.tar.bz2.html
unzip package and type:
Run the following command as root:
ndiswrapper -i /path/to/drivers/bcmwl5.inf |
|---|
now check does everything work properly. Type as root ndiswrapper -l. You should receive something like this:
HP-Linux:/home/anubis # ndiswrapper -l
bcmwl5 : driver installed
device (14E4:4315) present
if all has gone well continue,
Run the following command as root:
ndiswrapper -mi modprobe ndiswrapper |
|---|
Now a new interface should appeare, wlan0. It is easy to check:
HP-Linux:/home/anubis # cd /proc/net/ndiswrapper/ HP-Linux:/proc/net/ndiswrapper # dir -a totale 0 dr-xr-xr-x 3 root root 0 12 mag 23:19 . dr-xr-xr-x 5 root root 0 12 mag 23:19 .. -r--r----- 1 root root 0 12 mag 23:19 debug dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 12 mag 23:19 wlan0
how you can see from last line exist wlan0 device. If so you will be able to configure your card easily from YaST, just remember to add into "hardware" tab the word ndiswrapper in module name field.
Screen Power Managment
The screen power managment (increase or reduce lightness) does not work with OpenSUSE 10.3, instead it perfectly works with OpenSUSE 11.0.
Card Reader
Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter
With OpenSUSE 11.0 that works out of the box.
OpenSUSE 10.3 users do the following:
To make you card reader work you must install that rpm:
Run the following command:
wget http://brilug.crealabsfoundation.org/rpm/ricoh-r5c832-fix-1-2.noarch.rpm sudo rpm -i ricoh-r5c832-fix-1-2.noarch.rpm |
|---|
Now open YaST--->system--->Runlevels editors , so search and enable ricoh-r5c832-fix service, or use shell:
Run the following command as root:
/etc/init.d/ricoh-r5c832-fix start |
|---|
Now you will be able to access in read/write mode to your cards. (Only SD and MMC looks to be supported).
Firewire and HDMI
Ricoh Co Ltd R5C832
Should works, not yet tested
Touchpad
Your Thouchpad will works out of the box, installing video drivers side scroll will be enabled automatically.
Remote Control
Remote Control should works out of box, only 4 keys will not work and they are:
- External Screen Switcher (that key works with OpenSUSE 11.0)
- HP Quick Play
- HP Quick Play DVD
- Windows Media Center Starter
you could fully enjoy it installing Elisa Media Center from Packman Repository
Multimedia Keys
All Multimedia Keys should works out of the box.
openSUSE 11.0 users, due to an Hal bug (Bug #398846 and Bug #398774) you have to install hotkey-setup package from Packman Repository (fixed on openSUSE 11.1, no more needs to install the package).
If you need to change default key configuration then do the following:
| If you are using the KDE Desktop Environment: right click on your menu--->menu editor, search for application you want to start when you press key and on section keyboard shortcut choose the right key pressing the key you want to set up |
| If you are using the GNOME Desktop Environment: For Gnome, Multimedia keys SHOULD work out of the box, it is important however in Control Center---->Sound that you have your mixer set to Master (located at bottom of page). Otherwise, you will be controlling a different channel. |
Lightscribe
To be able to use the Lightscribe Technology you have to install official linux drivers and the official application.
Download rpms from here: http://www.lightscribe.com/downloadSection/linux/index.aspx
you need only those software:
- LIGHTSCRIBE SYSTEM SOFTWARE
- LIGHTSCRIBE SIMPLE LABELER
The only application i found that works properly on linux to create custom labels is LaCie 4L.

DVB-T Tuner
YUAN ExpressCard DVB-T tuner
OpenSUSE 11.0
Works out of the box, only firmware is needed (download and rename it):
Run the following commands:
wget http://www.wi-bw.tfh-wildau.de/~pboettch/home/files/dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw sudo mv dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw /lib/firmware/dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw |
|---|
OpenSUSE 10.3
Drivers are not build into the kernel, so you have to compile kernel module.
To do that you have to install kernel-source, kernel-syms, make, gcc, mercurial.
Than open a shell and type:
Run the following command:
hg clone http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb |
|---|
once you have done, open your favourite text editor and past in it that lines:

remember to past also the last blank line. Now save that into the folder v4l-dvb/v4l as .config. That configuration file allow you to build only dib drivers, without breaking your system.
ATTENTION Because you are downloading from a mercurial repository that config file could not be useful if important changes happen. To change that configuration you could use the command make xconfig before lunch make. If for any error happends, i.e. webcam are no more working, you have only to reinstall kernel and any kmp packages.
Now, you have to cd into the main v4l-dvb directory and
Run the following commands:
make <as root type> make install |

to make you card working, you now need only firmware.
Run the following commands:
wget http://www.wi-bw.tfh-wildau.de/~pboettch/home/files/dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw sudo mv dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw /lib/firmware/dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw |

now you can finally have fun with your tuner:
