Google your problem first. Check the Wiki. Read the existing threads. It's okay to "hijack" an existing thread, yes! If your problem is not yet covered, open a new thread. To get the quickest possible help, mention the exact release codename in your post (uname -a is a good idea, too). Due to the lack of crystal balls, attach the output of lspci -nnk if you encounter hardware problems.

[Solved] Camel Carcass ceni question

Unread post by archvortex » Sat Jul 05, 2014 7:29 pm

@dkeg it's the urxvt terminal with the release. I haven't touched any of the configs yet either.

Can someone else check/confirm that Ceni is working with this edition? I can't get wlan0 up working. Tried manually starting it, playing around with /etc/network/interfaces, wpa_supplicant, etc. When I click on Roam it says that there is no wlan0 and if I click on Scan I get the message in the scrot. Rfkill is not installed so that's not blocking anything. Ceni works on Tater Salad and Summer 2014 on this laptop. A definite ball ache needless to say. I just need to know if it's me being a 'tard and not seeing the obvious or if something is wrong with Ceni with this edition. Thanks guys!!

can you post an inxi -n ?

Also, have you checked with gogol on 'nl80211 could not set interface 'wlan0' up'

The base has changed from Siduction to Debian, that's why there are some changes (for example no inxi, which came from siduction)

sudo apt-get install firmware-brcm80211 firmware-iwlwifi

should do the trick
..gnutella..

Thanks MB!! I should have remembered that firmware-iwlwifi was needed to install Debian on my old Compaq laptop (getting past the network section). Doh!!!

And thanks Pidsley for moving this to the right section :)
