Devuan: Wifi does not work after distribution upgrade to Daedalus.
Could it please be caused by Microcode SW error ?
Code:
/var/log/syslog Code:
[ 5436.647225] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready Code:
# ip l Code:
# ip a Code:
# nmcli d Code:
# lspci -v Code:
# rfkill list |
Your Intel Wireless card/chip may need the firmware installed, if it isn't already.
The latest one I have is from Feburary 2023... iwlwifi > firmware-iwlwifi On a Devuan 5 (daedalus) system, the "non-free-firmware" needs to be un-commented or added to one of the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list for example... Code:
deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged/ daedalus main contrib non-free non-free-firmware Devuan 4 (chimaera) the non-free firmware was imbedded with the other packages, now non-free is separate. I think it is so people don't install non-free software by mistake, foss. I hope this helps. |

I've downloaded http://deb.devuan.org/merged/pool/DE...0210-5_all.deb and tried offline install but output of apt command was that this package was already installed. |
Sorry I jumped too fast to try a solution.
I see in the syslog the line near the top and after the SW error... The firmware is loaded. Code:
2023-09-12T17:17:38.456379+02:00 maketopsite kernel: [ 227.203049] iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: Loaded firmware version: 18.168.6.1 135-6.ucode |

Ethernet connection to internet does not work either.
|
Same Microcode SW error detected in openSUSE TW 64 bit and both wifi and eth. connection to internet works fine.
|
Maybe try sudo ifconfig -a to see if its really up & sending/receiving.
