LXDE lucid nite flux from spane : no sound, no wifi.
Even now ! we have all the correct drivers available. Please issue a new ISO including them.
And long life to Lucid !

iwlagn :
What does that mean (here after) ?
The only solution at the moment seems to be deactivating wireless N mode and use wireless G mode only.
A lot of work has to be done here.

It will be my last try to be wirelessed with Lucid. I will stay chained to my ethernet cable ! but be cool, i just try to make things working, it's not a disaster ! Any news about this subject ? Merci les gars.

Hi there,

I have an issue with wireless support for my PC. It has Lupu 5.20 installed on it. The RTL8191SE wireless wasn't seen by Puppy at all, so I installed the PET from page two of this thread r8192se_pci-k2.6.33.2.pet It is now seen by the OS, but it won't "wake up". It just gives me an error when I try to connect to the internet with it.

I tried also using Carolina and Precise 5.71 neither of these puppies had any success with the wifi on my PC. These two more modern puppies just tell me wlan is down.

I have a temp fix of using a usb wifi which works (slowly), but it'd be nicer to use the onboard wifi.

Any help?

What's your computer? A laptop? There might be a wifi on/off switch involved, and it might be an "rfkill" issue.
To complicate matters, the standard release of Puppy 5.2.x (Lupu) did not enable the rfkill driver, so please first install my "rfkill-upgrade" dotpet from earlier in this thread -
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 093#452093
Then reboot, and run this command - Please report the result.

My PC is one like this.

Not this model though, will have to figure that out when I get home. No switch is involved.

Will try the RFKILL update and see what happens.

Questioning the effectiveness however, as it also didn't work in later puppies. But will try tonight and report back. Thanks

Precise 5.7.1 (pae version) does have an rfkill problem - see

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... &start=126

rfkill list gives me this response

Soft Blocked: No
Hard Blocked: Yes

There is no hardware switch on this machine. Nothing obvious in BIOS. Will do more research.

Could this be part of the problem?

Note the bus and description are both x

That means that either there's a physical wifi switch ... or the Linux operating system thinks there's a physical switch.
In the latter case, you need to do a full bios reset.

You should also consider upgrading to the latest bios version, but I don't see an upgraded bios on Shuttle's website at this stage for your model.

I see you're using the "Simple Network Wizard" - which I distrust.
You should be using the full Network Wizard.

Already tried the BIOS reset. Looked all over the machine for a switch that doesn't exist.

Using the full network wizard gives me this error screen

The solution might be in the bios update from 2011

1. Support wireless LAN always On

MY problem = SOLVED

Bit of a stuff around.

Installed the driver from this thread, recognised wifi module
Had to update BIOS, found out model and downloaded .exe file. Useless to me in my puppy only machine.

Booted into Hiren's boot cd mini xp. loaded the bios update. (that was a screw around, because I saved the file on my /mnt/home ext3 partition, which xp didn't see. lucky hiren's comes with ext software) Update spat out errors. Tried again, more errors. Cracked the shits, rebooted puppy, and it works.

Nice. Thanks for your help and suggestions
