Hi,
I've tried both 32 and 64 bit latest Slitaz 5.0 rolling releases (24 March) on USB with fat and ext2. My Intel WiFi card 5300 AGN is not detected at all. I've done some searching and found that I need to install iwlwifi-5000-firmware.
- I did this first from Package Manager but wifi did not work.
- Then I tried all the steps in easy method wifi configuration and installed tazpkg get-install get-wifi-firmware and got confirmation: Package "get-wifi-firmware" (2.0) is installed.
- I tried /etc/init.d/network.sh restart but result was [Failed]
No networks are shown when I run Wi-Fi configuration in preferences. It seems as if the wifi card is not detected at all. The wifi LED light is on but when I try lspci | grep -i network I get no output at all. Also when I run tazhw detect-pci --get-firmware I get this output which doesn't show the wifi card:
Detected PCI devices Kernel modules
===================================
* Builtin module : ahci
* Builtin module : ata_generic
> Module in use : e1000e
* Builtin module : ehci_pci
> Module in use : i915
> Module in use : intel_agp
* Builtin module : pcieport
* Builtin module : sdhci_pci
* Builtin module : serial
> Module in use : snd_hda_intel
* Builtin module : uhci_hcd
> Module in use : yenta_socket
==================================
when I run lsmod, I can see the module (the output is very long so I deleted everything and only showing wifi)
Module Size Used by
iwlwifi 63944 0
By the way, wifi works fine under Windows and other Linux distros
The attached file has the output of all other commands (lspci | grep -i network, modprobe your_module, dmesg | tail, lsmod, nano /etc/network.conf, ifconfig eth1 up, ifconfig -a, iwconfig, /etc/init.d/network.sh restart, ifconfig -a)
I'm an advanced Windows user but a new comer to Linux and I have spent a lot of time trying to figure this out on my own as part of the learning process, but I've failed and I'm so frustrated. Please please help, thanks
