I just can't comprehend how on earth you can put so much power in such a little space. I tried to connect a USB wifi RTL8188EUS with the same method here, but it didn't start even though the rtlwifi firmware is already included in the kernel.Īs a newcomer to Linux, I'm really amazed by all these distros, Slitaz in particular.
WiFi connection from Preference menu > Wi-Fi configuration didn't work and I had to go to Package Manager and select network tab and do the configuration.Ģ. But in general I believe the wifi still needs some fine-tuning. I hope iwlwifi firmware will be included in the next rolling releases as there are many computers using them. Download firmware-iwlwifi-5000 package from Slitaz mirror and and save it on USB So I did some experimenting and these are the steps I did in case someone else needs them:ġ. It worked, but unfortunately the installed firmware was lost after reboot because I'm running Slitaz live from USB even though it is ext2 formatted.
Thank you so much, you've put me out of my misery. Reboot after installing firmware and check if kernel registered the wifi adapter.Ĭheck for errors in terminal 1 in response to unload/load of iwlwifi driver. Please please help, thanksĠ installed packages found for "firmware-iwlwifi"ġ5 available packages found for "firmware-iwlwifi" I'm an advanced Windows user but a new comer to Linux and I have spent a lot of time trying to figure this out on my own as part of the learning process, but I've failed and I'm so frustrated. The attached file has the output of all other commands (lspci | grep -i network, modprobe your_module, dmesg | tail, lsmod, nano /etc/nf, ifconfig eth1 up, ifconfig -a, iwconfig, /etc/init.d/network.sh restart, ifconfig -a) When I run lsmod, I can see the module (the output is very long so I deleted everything and only showing wifi)īy the way, wifi works fine under Windows and other Linux distros Also when I run tazhw detect-pci -get-firmware I get this output which doesn't show the wifi card: The wifi LED light is on but when I try lspci | grep -i network I get no output at all. It seems as if the wifi card is not detected at all. No networks are shown when I run Wi-Fi configuration in preferences. I tried /etc/init.d/network.sh restart but result was Then I tried all the steps in easy method wifi configuration and installed tazpkg get-install get-wifi-firmware and got confirmation: Package "get-wifi-firmware" (2.0) is installed. I did this first from Package Manager but wifi did not work. I've done some searching and found that I need to install iwlwifi-5000-firmware. My Intel WiFi card 5300 AGN is not detected at all. I've tried both 32 and 64 bit latest Slitaz 5.0 rolling releases (24 March) on USB with fat and ext2.
