3645_59* Posted January 19, 2017 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 ? PS : Sorry for that bad english, i'm a french user which don't speak english very well.

Igor Posted January 21, 2017 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.
3645_59* Posted January 22, 2017 Author 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
