no wifi on freerunner fso

[flecktor]

hi,

i got fso installed on the free runner and i cant get the wifi to work. same result for hackable:1. can anyone tell me how to check the wifi? (other then connect to another network or open network).

i do iwconfig and the result is
lo no wireless extensions.
usb0 no wireless extensions.
pan0 no wireless extensions.

thanks

i have the same problem with my free runner, gps and blue tooth appear to work but no wifi, eth0 doesn't show up and binding doesn't make it show. anyone know what i an do to get it working or is my wireless doa?

I don't know if your kernel has the wlan-driver builtin or as module
(try: find /lib/modules -name ar6000.ko) If it is shown, try "modprobe
ar6000". Then check "dmesg | grep AR6000", does that give you some
messages? Is the interface eth0 shown in "cat /proc/net/wireless"?

Same issues here. I haven't had working WiFi since I started using SHR a few weeks ago. I guess I thought it just wasn't working for the time being.

I get nothing from either 'dmesg | grep AR6000' or 'cat /proc/net/wireless'

So I guess others have working WiFi? Wild.

Is the driver built into the kernel or is it a module?

And try another search:

dmesg | grep -i -e ar6000 -e eth0 -e s3c2440-sdi -e mmc1

For others: notice the impressive speedup between this 2 lines:

[47747.100000] s3c2440-sdi s3c2440-sdi: running at 196kHz (requested: 195kHz).
[47747.135000] s3c2440-sdi s3c2440-sdi: running at 25000kHz
(requested: 25000kHz).

BTW, I wish someonw could go back and fix the kernel driver so that the
eth0 always shows up (regardless of the pwoered state of the actual
device) and so that the device gets powered up/down as needed (e.g. via
"ifconfig eth0 up/down").

This is how it's looking over here with a working wifi. You still
haven't told, if the wlan driver is builtin or a module.

the search for ar6000 returned nothing, i'm not sure if its supposed to be a module in the fso release or not though, i checked the modules directory and there were modules for other stuff. Perhaps i should put shr on my freerunner to check

I have it here:

$ find /lib/modules -name ar6000.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.29-rc3/kernel/drivers/ar6000/ar6000.ko

One last try to check if it is built into the kernel:

$ strings -a /dev/mtd3 | grep AR6000

(or wherever your kernel is, when your system is on SD-card)

This should show about 10 lines. If not, maybe someone has forgotten
to include the driver.
