Hi Jon,

This is the dmesg after inserting the WiFi adapter:

It disagrees a lot with the symbol module_layout..

Hi Béla,

I've just tested it, and: yes, it "kind of" works with 7.1beta1.
The wlan01 network interface is now present when I execute the "iwconfig" command. Executing the wifi.sh script does also produce a list of WiFi SSID's.
But I cannot connect to my SSID. While trying to connect is throws (among the other output lines), this error:

--- Code: ---sh: wpa_passphrase: not found
--- End code ---

Also, I saw an error while installing wifi.tcz. It reports an checksum error on libn1.tcz:

Hi Gerrelt
I don't think there's any md5 problem with libnl:

Maybe this is your problem:

--- Code: ---Connecting to repo.tinycorelinux.net (89.22.99.37:80)
wget: short write
libnl.tcz: FAILED
--- End code ---
Isn't short write an indication your disk is full?

Hi Béla,

I can confirm that all the WiFi dongles I have tried on 7.1beta1 work.

These include the following Vendor/Product pairs: 0x0bda/0x8176, 0xbda/0x8178, 0x0bda/0x8179, 0x148f/0x5370, 0x148f/0x7601, 0x148f/0x760b, 0x0a5c/0xbd1e.

I can also confirm that all RPi's, running 7.1beta2, that have
--- Code: ---disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
--- End code ---
messages also have just the header displayed when running lsmod
--- Code: ---Module Size Used by Not tainted
--- End code ---
and furthermore Wifi modules aren't loaded on any of these.

HTH
Jon

Did you try a clean beta2 install?
