iwconfig file not found
« on: July 26, 2012, 04:03:27 PM »
Hello everyone,

I'm trying to establish a wireless network connection, but I get an error message when I try to run iwconfig that says "error while loading shared libraries: libiw.so.29: no such file or directory". How can I fix this? I'm following the instructions in the Tiny Core wiki for setting up wifi (sorry I can't post the link) under the section "More Advanced Setup: Using Wireless Tools".

Thank you!

With command line only use provides.sh to search for what provides ?

tc@box:~$ provides.sh  libiw.so.29
libiw.tcz

Never mind; there were dependencies of wireless-tools that I didn't have installed. Installing these solved my problem.

FYI using the command line tool ab will auto load any needed dependencies.
