Wifi Setup on a HP Laptop running TinyCore 11.1 (64 bit)
RYTCL:
I updated onboot.lst and did a reboot. Cannot identify any information related to wifi in dmesg.log
ONBOOT.LST
--- Code: ---SDA9: /tce/onboot.lst

I have also included the complete DMESG log.
It looks like WiFi module is " Ralink corp. RT3290 Wireless 802.11n ".
How do I check if module RT3290 is loaded on TinyCore.

???Doesn't ALSA include sound card firmware?
Don't need to install sound card drivers or firmware on Linux?

Hi RYTCL
It appears your wired connection requires firmware:
--- Code: ---r8169 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for rtl_nic/rtl8106e-1.fw failed with error -2
r8169 0000:04:00.0: Falling back to sysfs fallback for: rtl_nic/rtl8106e-1.fw
r8169 0000:04:00.0: Unable to load firmware rtl_nic/rtl8106e-1.fw (-11)
--- End code ---
That would be in firmware-rtl_nic.tcz.
I don't see the RT3290 being detected in your dmesg listing.
Rich:
Hi RYTCL
Maybe run this on your Ubuntu setup and attach it to your next post:
--- Code: ---dmesg > dmesg-ubuntu.txt
--- End code ---
RYTCL:
I am including the DMESG log attachment from Ubuntu.
