Re: [64studio-devel] 3b3 wifi issue: AR5212/AR5213 detected as wire
Hi Jonathan,
Since iwconfig, and iwlist work, this really looks like a bug with
network-manager.
64studio is based on Ubuntu Hardy, which is why you get version 0.6.6.
I've filed a ticket to backport nm-0.7.1 to 64studio
( http://trac.64studio.com/64studio/ticket/515 ) but it would be great
to know if that will solve the problem before we start backporting.
Could you try to compile and test it on your machine?
Try sth. like this:
-8
sudo apt-get install build-essential fakeroot
sudo apt-get build-dep network-manager
cd /tmp
wget http://rg42.org/_media/wiki/nm-0.7.1-debian.tgz
tar xvzf nm-0.7.1-debian.tgz
cd network-manager-0.7.1/
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
cd ..
sudo dpkg -i network-manager*deb
-8
The nm-0.7.1 on my server is taken from debian/squeeze. There may be
some version-conflicts in the build-dependacies.. if you run into
problems, be creative or get back to us..

I don't think this is a kernel issue.
If you succeed configuring it by hand as outlined by Gustin below with
`iwconfig` it is a network-manager problem, not a kernel/driver issue.
I am rather strongly allergic to setting my wireless network to
unauthenticated :-) My wife's XP PC is nearby :-)
Maybe it's even simpler: try hitting the WiFi-en/disable button
(Fn+F5?!) or flick the Wifi kill-switch ;)
Good try *grin* It's marked 'on', its light is lit.
It seems likely that you have a mixed system, which would also explain
the NetworkManager vs. network-manager naming difference.
Nope. Vanilla 64studio 3b3, have changed no repos, have just run
vanilla updates via Synaptic.
Maybe that's the whole issue: Are you mixing different versions of the
network-manager-applet and the network-manager service:
what does
dpkg-query -l network-manager-gnome

Now you've got me a bit weirded out :-) I wonder why 3b3 is packaged
with NM 0.6.6?
Does `nm-tool` detect wlan0 as Type: 802.11 WiFi ?
- Device: wlan0
NM Path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/wlan0
Type: Wired
Driver:ath5k
Active:no
HW Address:00:90:96:82:EA:85
Capabilities:
Supported: yes
Wired Settings
Hardware Link: yes
Can you detect WiFi-networks by running `sudo iwlist wlan0 scan` ?
Yes -- all of the nearby WAPs, including my own, are detected via the
above command.
Anyways. the at5k should be detected as ath0 not wlan0.
Perhaps this is indicative of an NM version glitch. But I don't
understand why 3b3 standard repos have sent me an old NM.
Is this a new install of 64studio, or did you upgrade from a previous
System? It could be due to some relic udev rule: Do you have a file
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
(`ls /etc/udev/rules.d/*net*` , the name may be slightly different),
there might be a clue in there.
This is a vanilla install onto bare hardware, of 3b3. The above file
does exist, and contains:
# This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_net_rules
# program run by the persistent-net-generator.rules rules file.
#
# You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single line.
# PCI device 0x8086:0x103d (e100)
SUBSYSTEM==net, ACTION==add, DRIVERS==?*,
ATTR{address}==00:08:0d:9f:18:f4, ATTR{type}==1, KERNEL==eth*,
NAME=eth0
# PCI device 0x168c:0x0013 (ath5k)
SUBSYSTEM==net, ACTION==add, DRIVERS==?*,
ATTR{address}==00:90:96:82:ea:85, ATTR{type}==1, KERNEL==wlan*,
NAME=wlan0
There's plenty of reasons why things could not work as expected; maybe
you once used /etc/iftab with `ifrename` or set up mii-tools..
Nope.
- or
maybe the device is simply defect..
The hardware, including wireless, was working well with Puppy Linux
4.21, until I wiped it for 64studio.
Anyways the issue of Network-manager detecting a WiFi interfaces as
wired is unprecedented to my knowledge.
If the iwconfig steps below work, you can be pragmatic and use
wpa_supplicant and
