I have a VM backed by vCenter.
vCenter ESXi have physical adapter "Broadcom BCM57414 NetXtreme-E 10Gb/25Gb RDMA Ethernet Controller" and SR-IOV enabled on this.
VM is connected to 1mgmt network (vmxnet3) and 2 SR-IOV adapters (SRIOVPassthrough).
Upon booting of the VM, only 2 networks shown up. (1mgmt and 1SR-IOV).
Journalctl -k logs showed following error.
[ 4832.408471] bnxt_en 0000:13:00.0 (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): Error (timeout: 500015) msg {0x0 0x0} len:0
[ 4832.408930] bnxt_en: probe of 0000:13:00.0 failed with error -1
Reboot of machine did not help at all.
For the successful one adapter

bnxt_en 0000:03:00.0 eth1: FEC autoneg off encodings: None
I did rescan of the pci devices and did multiple times reboot without any success.
Any pointers would be really helpful
We've got a similar issue and were able to fix it.
In our case we had the same error message on Debian 10, 11 and Oracle Linux 8 but we installed it directly on hardware without an hypervisor.
But it could be the same issue cause you're using passthrough.
There are two ways to fix it:
Usage of UEFI Boot
Disable PXE Boot and keep Bios / Legacy Boot
Both options fixed it.
Disabling PXE didn't work for us, but we can get the ports back online, by running
echo 0000:af:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/bnxt_en/bind
Where 0000:af:00.0 is the PCI number for the port, which can be gotten from dmesg | grep bnxt_en and looking for the port or ports that failed.
The title is the last line of an error while trying to run a sample application of dpdk, named l2fwd. When I run the app by ./build/l2fwd -l 0-3 -n 4 -- -q 8 -p ffff but at last lines this error occurs:
EAL: Error - exiting with code: 1
Cause: No Ethernet ports - bye
According to dpdk documentation before running app I must execute a command: modprobe ixgbe max_vfs=2,2
I also have a problem with this command, but I'm not sure this is the main reason of failing app execution.
Error of modprobe command relates to ixgbe driver which I can't install it. The error after make of ixgbe is
cc1: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode
Makefile:197: * * Aborting the build. *** This driver is not supported on kernel versions older than 2.4.0. Stop.
To you a NIC with DPDK we need to bind it to UIO or VFIO driver.
Please have a look at Binding and Unbinding Network Ports to/from the Kernel Modules in DPDK's getting started guide.
I've run out of tutorials and tricks that worked for others but not for me.
I'm trying to pair a remote bluetooth speaker with my PI Zero.
When I attempt to connect I get the error message:
[bluetooth]# connect XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Attempting to connect to XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed
[bluetooth]#
And the log reports:
org.bluez.Manager.GetProperties() failed:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "GetProperties" with
signature "" on interface "org.bluez.Manager" doesn't exist
I have no idea where to begin addressing that. The logs also report
Unable to contact D-Bus: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported:
Unable to autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11
and
a2dp-sink profile connect failed for XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX: Protocol not
available a2dp-source profile connect failed for XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:
Protocol not available
I'm sure there's useful information in there but every time I think I've googled a solution I'm disappointed. Moving the load of the discoverable module until after X11 load didn't work. Purging pulseaudio and reinstalling it didn't help. Any ideas?
Somewhere on some thread someone said that Pulseaudio had to be version 6.0 or greater, which led me down the rabbit hole of installing version 7, which broke on Jessie due to incompatible dependencies.
Ultimately I purged the following:
apt-get purge pulseaudio pulseaudio-module-bluetooth libpulse0
And reinstalled
apt-get install pulseaudio pulseaudio-module-bluetooth
I then unpaired the Alexa from the pi via the Alexa app on my phone
and ran
bluetoothctl
[bluetooth]# remove XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Reboot and voilà, Pulseaudio running and paired on the Pi and working! Only issue I have now is that I can't seem to get it to start automatically on boot. I've added to /etc/rc.local:
su -c 'pulseaudio --start' - pi
echo connect XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX | bluetoothctl
su -c 'pacmd set-card-profile bluez_card.68_54_FD_82_A9_BF a2dp' - pi
Well, to be precise, it pairs automatically on boot, but then drops out. If I manually run
pulseaudio --start
and
bluetoothctl
[bluetooth]# power on
[bluetooth]# agent on
[bluetooth]# default-agent
[bluetooth]# connect XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Then all works fine, stays rock solid. Despite the fact that I STILL have these error messages in the log:
cat /var/log/syslog | grep dbus
org.bluez.Manager.GetProperties() failed:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "GetProperties" with
signature "" on interface "org.bluez.Manager" doesn't exist

I have an Rpi3 and I want to bond it with nRF which is connected to my laptop via UART. This nRF-laptop connection shows me whether Rpi3 is connected and/or paired with nRF. I am able to connect to the nRF device by running:
gatttool -t random -b XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -I
I found that to be able to pair it, all I need to do is run the following command after I connected using gattool:
sec-level medium
However, nRF device only showed "Connected".
Then I tried using bluetoothctl command. I made sure the power is on, agent is on, it's discoverable and etc. After I ran the command pair XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX, it said it was successful. This was also confirmed after running info XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX. Yet nRF device did not react to the pairing. If I connect to nRF device through my phone using "nRF Connect" app, then nRF shows that my phone is paired.
I am running:
Linux 4.9.13-v7+ #974 SMP Wed Mar 1 20:09:48 GMT 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux

Bluez-5.44
I followed tutorials from adafruit and stackoverflow. I read that for Bluez-5.44 I do not need to run bluetooth in the experimental mode.
What am I missing? I would appreciate any help.
To any lost souls who might have also been stuck in this situation, here is how I solved it (you need to run sudo for the following commands):
$ service bluetooth stop
$ /etc/init.d/bluetooth start
If the nRF device has been paired once and then restarted, that means the pairing key is still on Pi's side which needs to be removed and can be done by:
$ bluetoothctl
$ remove XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
$ exit
After this you need to start bluetooth device:
$ hciconfig hci0 up
I am trying to connect minicom to a serial device that is connected via a USB-to-serial adapter. This is a PL2303 and from everything I've read no additional drivers are required. The device is recognised as a PL2303.
I'm a beginner at minicom. Is this the correct command to execute? Or do I need to configure something?
$ sudo minicom --device /dev/ttyUSB0
minicom: cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory
$ sudo lsusb -v
Bus 002 Device 006: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port
Device Descriptor:
bLength 18
bDescriptorType 1
$ tail /var/log/syslog #then removed and attached the device.

First check with dmesg | grep tty if system recognize your adapter.
Then try to run minicom with sudo minicom -s, go to "Serial port setup" and change the first line to /dev/ttyUSB0.
Don't forget to save config as default with "Save setup as dfl". It works for me on Ubuntu 11.04 on VirtualBox.
You will need to set the permissions every time you plug the converter in.
I use PuTTY to connect. In order to do so, I have created a little Bash script to sort out the permissions and launch PuTTY:
#!/bin/bash
sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB0
putty
P.S. I would never recommend that permissions are set to 777.
Long time reader, first time helper ;)
I'm going through the same hellish experience here with a Prolific USB <> Serial adapter and so far Linux is the easiest to get it to work.
On CentOS, I didn't need to install any drivers etc.. That said,
dmesg | grep -i tty or dmesg | grep -i usb showed me /dev/ttyUSB0.
screen ttyUSB0 9600 didn't do the trick for me like it did in OSX
minicom is new to me but it was complaining about lack of /dev/modem
However, this helped: https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=21271
So install minicom (yum install minicom) then enter its settings (minicom -s).
Then select Serial Port Setup and change the Serial Device (Option A) to /dev/ttyUSB0, or whatever your device file is as it slightly differs per distro.
Then change the Bps (Option E) to 9600 and the rest should be default (8N1 Y N)
Save as default, then simply minicom and Bob's your uncle.
HTH.
The serial port communication programs moserial or gtkterm provide an easy way to check connectivity and modify /dev/ttyUSB0 (or /dev/ttyUSB1!) settings. Even though there maybe only a single USB to RS232 adapter, the n designation /dev/ttyUSBn can and does change periodically! Both moserial and gtkterm will show what port designation is relevant in their respective pull down menus when selecting an appropriate port to use.
Check out help.ubuntu.com/community/Minicom for details on minicom.
I had fix this with adduser *username* dialout. I never had this error again, even though previously the only way to get it to work was to reboot the PC or unplug and replug the usb to serial adapter.
I get get the same minicom error, "cannot open /dev/ttyUSB0: No such file or directory"
Three notes:
I get the error when the device attached to the serial port end of my Prolific Technology PL2303 USB/Serial adapter is turned off. After turning on the device (an embedded controller running Linux) minicom connected fine.
I have to run as super user (i.e. sudo minicom)
Sometimes I have to unplug and plug back in the USB-to-serial adapter to get minicom to connect to it.
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) under VMware (running on Windows 7). In this situation, make sure the device is attached to VM operating system by right clicking on the USB/Serial USB icon in the lower right of the VMware window and select Connect (Disconnect from Host).
Remember to press Ctrl + A to get minicom's prompt, and type X to exit the program. Just exiting the terminal session running minicom will leave the process running.
I had the exact same problem, and it was fixed by doing a chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0. I never had this error again, even though previously the only way to get it to work was to reboot the VM or unplug and replug the USB-to-serial adapter. I am running Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) VM on OS X.
I suggest that newbies connect a PL2303 to Ubuntu, chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0 (file-permissions) and connect to a CuteCom serial terminal. The CuteCom UI is simple \ intuitive. If the PL2303 is continuously broadcasting data, then Cutecom will display data in hex format
I just got my GUC232A cable with a molded-in PL2302 converter chip.
In addition to adding myself and br to group dialout, I found this helpful tip in the README.Debian file in /usr/share/doc/bottlerocket:
This package uses debconf to configure the /dev/firecracker symlink,
should you need to change the symlink in the future run this command:
dpkg-reconfigure -pmedium bottlerocket
That will then prompt you for your new serial port and modify the
symlink. This is required for proper use of bottlerocket.
I did that and voila! bottlerocket is able to communicate with my X-10
devices.
Putty on ubuntu
There is no need to install the driver for PL2303
So only type the command to enable the putty
Sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB0
Done
Open the putty.
