I am using buildroot to bring up an embedded design. The device has two
ethernets in the SoC (i.MX28) and a wifi adapter connected via USB. When
linux boots, it brings up both ethernets, localhost, and the wifi adapter,
verified with "ifconfig -a". I can manually configure any of the
interfaces and use dhcp to connect, with no trouble.
If I start connman, it will connect to either of the ethernet interfaces
and dhcp correctly. I can even disconnect and reconnect with no
difficulty. However, the wifi seems to be missing.
It appears in the logs....

So, a cursory glance at the source seems to indicate that it should have
registerred itself as an available technology, but no dice...
# connmanctl technologies

[Type] = ethernet

[Tethering] = False
I've tried doing "enable wifi"... nothing. It seems to be communicating
with the wpa_supplicant (running with -u so it can use dbus), as here's
what I get when I plug
the usb wifi dongle back in after having disconnected it:

I've been wrestling with this for a couple hours, but haven't found any
references to similar trouble in the archives. If anyone has any
suggestions, I could really use them.
Thanks!
Peace,
Gary
