CorePlus/TinyCore 7.2 Wifi does not work on Inspiron 11

Hi newtotinycore

Then I recommend you boot up MX-16 and attach a copy of  dmesg  from that. That may provide a clue as to what's missing.

newtotinycore:
Here's the dmesg from MX-16 connected directly to hotel WiFi.

If it is relevant, i can get a dmesg from MX-16 connected by way of my phone.

Anyway, the attached dmesg seems to show wlan0 data missing from the Tinycore dmesg.

patrikg:
You could try to use some quotes around the ssid for the wifi.
Like this:


--- Code: (bash) ---"SSID WITH SPACE"

--- End code ---

--- Code: (bash) ---'SSID WITH SPACE'

--- End code ---

newtotinycore:
That is a good idea, Patrikg.

Using the WiFi icon, I couldn't see how to do that.

I tried going through the Tinycore wikis and the 'Into the Core' book to find the proper
command line input. Still looking.

patrikg:
Do you have the file wifi.db in your directory ?

--- Code: (bash) ---cd
ls

--- End code ---

You could test to just edit that file, and change the line with the ssid with spaces, add the quotes.
