Network Drivers for HP xw6600 for suse9

This site tell you how to  install network drivers for HP XW6600 for SUSE  9

1)Download the driver from the following location.

    http://www.broadcom.com/

Download  linux-3.81c  file from that site.

2)Extract the files to a local directory of the machine.

3)Remember you need to have gcc gcc+ compliers installed in the machine or if you are starting a new installation please install the SUSE 9 complete version option while installation you get this option.

If already installed system go to YAST - software - Install and remove software
In the search box type gcc and search
Select all the gcc compilers and click okay and insert SUSE CD as asked. I am using SUSE 9 SP-4
same way gcc+ and gnu compilers if does not know what to install then select most of them.

4)Extract the files to a local directory
# mkdir /drivers
# cp -rf  linux-3.81c  /drivers
# cd /drivers
# unzip linux-3.81.c

5. Install the source RPM package:


rpm -ivh tg3-.src.rpm --aid --force

6. CD to the RPM path and build the binary driver for your kernel:

cd  /usr/src/{redhat,OpenLinux,turbo,packages,rpm ..}
rpm -bb SPECS/tg3.spec

or

rpmbuild -bb SPECS/tg3.spec (for RPM version 4.x.x)
 
Note that the RPM path is different for different Linux distributions.


The driver will be compiled for the running kernel by default. To build
the driver for a kernel different than the running one, specify the
kernel by defining it in KVER:

rpmbuild -bb SPECS/tg3.spec --define "KVER "
where in the form of 2.x.y-z is the version of another

kernel that is installed on the system.
7. Install the newly built package (driver and man page):


rpm -ivh RPMS//tg3-..rpm
is the architecture of the machine, e.g. i386:
rpm -ivh RPMS/i386/tg3-.i386.rpm

Note that the --force option may be needed on some Linux distributions
if conflicts are reported.

The driver will be installed in the following path:
2.4.x kernels:
/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/tg3.o

2.6.x kernels:
/lib/modules//kernel/drivers/net/tg3.ko

8. Load the driver:
insmod tg3.o

or

insmod tg3.ko (on 2.6.x kernels)

or

modprobe tg3

5. To configure network protocol and address,

go to yast and network devices - network card you should not able to see the network card is identified automatically just edit it and gives the ip subnet and DNS entries.
Building Driver From TAR File
=============================

The following are general guidelines for installing the driver.
1. Create a directory and extract the files:

tar xvzf tg3-.tar.gz

2. Build the driver tg3.o (or tg3.ko) as a loadable module for the
running kernel:

cd src
make
The driver will be compiled for the running kernel by default. To build
the driver for a kernel different than the running one, specify the
kernel by defining it in KVER:
make KVER=

where in the form of 2.x.y-z is the version of another
kernel that is installed on the system.

3. Test the driver by loading it:

insmod tg3.o

or

insmod tg3.ko (on 2.6.x kernels)

or

insmod tg3

4. Install the driver:
make install
See RPM instructions above for the location of the installed driver.

5. To configure network protocol and address,


Go to yast and network devices - network card you should not able to see the network card is identified automatically just edit it and gives the ip subnet and DNS entries

.net framework 4 has not been installed because hresult 0xc80003f3

.Net framework 4 has not been installed because HRESULT 0xc80003f3

Microsoft .Net Installation fails

Installation failed with error code: (0xC80003F3)

unable to install microsoft .net framework 4 win7

I just found a solution that worked and I will make it a little easier for those who need it.

Now remove the  Microsoft  .Net Framework 1.0 and  .Net Framework 4.0 from control panel as well as using the .Net Frame Work clean up tool

Restart the system.

Create a batch file with the following and run it from a command prompt.

*******Start File Below********

regsvr32 MSXML3.dll /s
 net stop wuauserv
 cd /d %windir%\SoftwareDistribution
 rd /s /q DataStore
 net start wuauserv
regsvr32 softpub.dll
regsvr32 mssip32.dll

******End File Above*******

Go to services and stop the Windows Update service
 Go to the Windows directory (default is c:\Windows) and rename the "SoftwareDistribution" folder to "SoftwareDistribution.old"
 Go to services and start the Windows Update service

Worked for me.
Installation failed with error code: (0xC80003F3)
