Good evening, last week they changed the electric meter in my building, but in order to do so they cut the power, and my Tinkerboard (the first model, the one issued back in 2017, Asus first's SBC), that I use as my "Save for later, and never look at it again" network folder, suffered.
It continued to reboot from some kernel panic, which I forgot to take note; but since it hadn't been upgraded to jammy, I took the opportunity to do it. Pluging in the uSD card (with the newly released jammy version, just downloaded here), power, and all (including the ethernet cord!!), first boot I have to create my user (which, for some reasons refuses to let me put my usual fr3d tag, obliging me to go with the common "fred", but OK ), then all the trivial steps to set my locale settings. Then the beautiful armbian desktop penguin greats me.
Nice now some more little custumisations and I'm ready to go, or so I thought; the wireless connection doesn't work, it fails to connect (and it is only 2m away from my router), it continues to ask me for the password, which has was not changed in the meantime.
I tried
nmtui
But nothing change, well I only got the funny message
I also tried to fix it by looking into
armbian-config
but nothing, after the third time, I get the same message about "secrets" not being given.
I also tried installing "non-free" package, hoping it would find missing piece of software/firmware/driver to solve my issue, but as you can immagine it doesn't.
And I also found out the "browser" can't be opened, as it gives me some kind of Input/output errors, yet if I scroll down to the internet program section, I can open firefox, and it seems (only used it for 1h, more or less) to be working properly.
Would some good soul help me find a solution??
As soon as I'm able to send some screenshots i'll do it.
Thanks in advance,
fr3d
