Thread: Broadcom 802.11 Linux STA driver

-

just downloaded 9.1 on acer 4420-5963 optional vista still aboard. fine except bcm4312 802.11 not making wireless connection, although cable connection ethernet gets internet fine (apparantly age-old problem many past recommended work-arounds). however, found broadcom's sept 17, 2009 release 802.11 linux sta driver bcm4312 based hardware (goto broadcom.com-802.11 linux sta driver), , downloaded same ubantu desk top. release appears direct installation in linux (no wrap around of windows driver, etc. required ?). new release answer above problem; , if so, how should go installing it? brand new linux , don't want mess up.

getting sta driver can done way; however, can easier. see posting

i'm struggling dht11 sensor work on arduino. code compiles without problems in serial monitor output keep on getting " read sensor: time out error" i've tried multiple libraries, adafruit etc still none of them worked. set serial monitor same speed (115200) didn't fix problem.  i'm using:  mega2560  dht11 temp+hum sensor windows10 x64 arduino 1.6.9 library dht11.h v0.4.1 source:  http://playground.arduino.cc/main/dht11lib wiring : blue = gnd yellow = 2 red = 5v (also see picture)  my code:    code: [select] #include <dht11.h> // //   file:  dht11_test1.pde // purpose: dht11 library test sketch arduino // //celsius fahrenheit conversion double fahrenheit(double celsius) {   return 1.8 * celsius + 32; } // fast integer version rounding //int celcius2fahrenheit(int celcius) //{ //  return (celsius * 18 + 5)/10 + 32; //} //celsius kelvin conversion double kelvin(double celsius) {   return ...

Arduino Uno + KTY81/210 temperature sensor

hi, sorry, new , unsure lot of things, need clarification. haven't found information explains how , why things work, "do this, that" i following guide ( arduino-thermistor-temperature-sensor-tutorial ) connect thermistor arduino uno. here temperature sensor information: temp. sensor 2000r +-1% to92 part.no.:   kty81-210 name:   temp. sensor 2000r +-1% to92 description:   2.5mm, 1980...2020ohm, -55...+150°c and here sensor's data-sheet: sensor data-sheet i have connected same way in guide. works , values being serial printed. what don't understand: 1. thermistor's , resistor's ohm value should equal, correct? in case 2000 ohm? 2. thermistor has ptc, i'm guessing have invert math or use ntc thermistor instead correct values? (currently resistance goes temperature goes down) 3. understand code uses steinhart-hart math logic convert resistor value temperature value, need a, b , c coefficients of thermis...
