[m0j4h3d]

gd work for bt5 ^_^
i had downloaded bt5|64bit kde
startx problem had solved ,, and nvidia driver setup solved ..
but i have problem in ar9170 usb tplink
i was using it well in bt4 | r2 and i have the firmware of it ,, but now in bt5 i made as i did in bt4 by copying the files to firmware and installing the latest combat wireless ,, but after that it still not working ..
also the problem is that i had lost wlan0 the default wireless driver .. since i was working well with it
it looks not found after typin
iwconfig
.. so any idea how to get wlan0 back .. and how to make ar9170 works !!
regards

Download the below files and put them into /lib/firmware

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kern...9170/ar9170.fw
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kerne...1.fw;hb=master
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kerne...2.fw;hb=master

download wireless drivers
http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/comp...6.32.3.tar.bz2

tar -xf /root/compat-wireless-2.6.32.3.tar.bz2
cd compat-wireless-2.6.32.3
make
make install
make unload

nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

add this to the blacklist without the quotes
"blacklist arusb_lnx"

its just the bluetooth driver as the drivers are not in bt5

yes download the latest drivers soory gave you the wrong drivers the firmware should be good
