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.

Login as root and type:

apt-get install armbian-firmware

Reboot after that.

Many many thanks for this help. I have an another problem with the bluetooth always with the same configuration.

 

When i start the cubietruck :

root@cubietruck:~# systemctl status bluetooth

â— bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service

   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled)

   Active: inactive (dead)

     Docs: man:bluetoothd(8)

 

After that i restart the bluetooth with "/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart"

 

And after when i check the status :

â— bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service

   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled)

   Active: active (running) since Sat 2017-01-21 00:25:47 CET; 2s ago

     Docs: man:bluetoothd(8)

 Main PID: 1893 (bluetoothd)

   Status: "Running"

   CGroup: /system.slice/bluetooth.service

           â””─1893 /usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd

 

 

But when i do "hcitool dev", i don't have any device

 

Can you help me again please ? 

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.

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
