3645_59* Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Hi, I run a Linux Armbian_5.24_Cubietruck_Debian_jessie_4.8.15 on a Cubietruck with the kernel on version 4.8.15-sunxi. When i want to enable the wifi module, this don't work. I have see a response on https://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/252-cubietrack-wifi-bug-hostapd-bcmdhd/ so i do "modprobe brcmfmac" which return any message. But after that, i can't use the wifi. When i do an ifconfig, i see only eth0, bond0 an lo butno wlan0. Can you help me to use the wifi on my cubietruck ?

Igor Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Check service brcm40183 which is responsible for loading BT firmware. On kernel 4.x onboard bluetooth works fine ... I made some testing few days ago with attached keyboard and mouse via BT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3645_59* Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 I don't have brcm40183 on the cubietruck, what can i do ? When i'm testing a lot of things which i have see on the internet, i have doing the command "hciattach /dev/ttyS2 any" and after the command "hciconfig -a" which give me the result : hci0: Type: BR/EDR Bus: UART BD Address: 00:00:00:00:00:00 ACL MTU: 0:0 SCO MTU: 0:0 DOWN INIT RUNNING RX bytes:0 acl:0 sco:0 events:0 errors:0 TX bytes:8 acl:0 sco:0 commands:2 errors:0 Features: 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 Packet type: DM1 DH1 HV1 Link policy: Link mode: SLAVE ACCEPT But with "hcitool dev", i don't have any device. How can i have the device ready ? Maybe it's because the bt hci0 don't have BD ADRESS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
